The fact that dudes are in here posting beats like In Da club and Mass Appeal to exemplify OP's point lets me know that yall are letting nostalgia cloud your judgement. From a purely PRODUCTION standpoint the 2010s is by far the best and most diverse era of hip hop production.

yeah you got that metro boomin trap sound as well as the reverb driven/ambient drake/pnd sound, but those are far from the only two styles of production. You also have shyt like this




Smooth samples like this



Bangers like this



Uptempo/EDM influenced beats like this



and so on...

I just read that a Nicki Minaj song has a better beat than Mass Appeal. If there was ever any doubt that we are in fact doomed, we are.
