Dudes like Lil Yachty it's like this, objective you know it's not really good music. But it is catchy as fukk and some these soundcloud rappers just have really good melodies and flows.

Which is basically what a lot of current rap is, it's melodic

When I first heard "Cold like Minnesota" I was like "what the fukk is this bullshyt?" But by the end of the song I was rockin with it. It's stupid but if you accept it for what it is, you can enjoy it

yeah no doubt, its the same when keef first came out and got signed, we're like wtf but if it feels good you cant knock it, this is why i have some respect for him turning his life around (even tho hes still fukking up)

you deffo have to look at it different and not take it to serious, we know its not some kool g rap shyt but its still alright

i think what most people dont like is that its weird and forced and alot of the times cliche (people sayin dude is like lil b, keef clone on x100 retard mode) and that alot of the times that kind of stuff gets pushed wayyyy more than other stuff that should get praised for its creativity.

ive expressed how much i think 21savge and playboycarti are super trash cause they are clones of what was goin on in 2012/2013 but u have to accept that some people like this and just keep it moving

That whole generation been raised off of fast food n drugs. That's why them dudes look like that. :scust:

What we see now is a direct response to what was happening in in rap when lyrics (temporary) came back in late 2010 to end of 2012. At one point, cats like Ross, Drake (before the water game ghost writing shyt), Kanye, Odd Future, Cole, Cudi, Jon Conner, Lupe, Schoolboy Q, Bas and Kendrick were popping off, with crazy buzz. When Kendrick dropped GKMC in September 2012, the powers that be were like "the urban audience is smartening up from the one hit wonder Era of 04 to 09. We can't have that happen again. :demonic: "

Then they dropped Chief Keef. Keef and Kendrick were put against one another, like negative vs positive, ignorance vs conscious, etc.

Kendrick won that battle, where positivity hasn't won directly against negativity in YEARS, against Keef. Interscope wasn't having that; a young black MC dropping positive rap that is lyrical that is getting at the attention where their former cash cow, Fifty, was dead in the water. They needed Keef to blow up and re-establish negative street raps to profit another decade of ignorance.

Keef flopped, but other people weren't happy about that. With cats in that 2012 Era like Lupe, Cole, Kendrick gaining more momentum and sales than 2 chainz, they wanted that ratchet club music back as top dog. "The streets" who were strip club and club focused, can't have the main Dawgs being lyrical and positive.

That's why they pushed Future, Young Thug, Trinidad James and so on from 2013 onwards to drown out the lyrical raps and make autotune and trap regain steam. Ingenious marketing to sabotage the would-be impact that the upcoming kids that loomed up to Cole, Kendrick, Cudi, and Lupe.

The "streets" and corporate worked together to dead any format of intelligence or individual thinking that could have come from the new lyrical movement. Except this time, they pushed the street dudes to rock feminine clothes and do gay trolling to push as "swag" to the kids.

Here we are, In 2016, wondering why a fraud like Drake, a gay appealing Young Thug, and a "rapper" like Future has all the influence and none of the integrity.
Keef flopped:comeon:
Whether you like his music or not sosa is one of the most influential artists to come out in the last 5 years:manny:

That's my point, people gravitate to the lowest common denominator. Lyrics too hard to comprehend for most of these kids.

I agree for the most part, Kendrick and J.Cole are really the only exception that. I played Lupe for my homies and mfs talm bout
"turn it off it's boring:francis:"
Rap is gonna be about clever/funny punchlines and one liners for a while:manny:
But honestly I'd rather just listen to the originators like basedgod and sosa instead of some of these clones like uzi and carti.

This shyt is trash and it has nothing to do with old or young. Gentrification, the rise of smartphones, and troll culture have done a number on nikkas in general. To the point of taking goofy shyt seriously and calling it art. It IS contrived...they DO all look alike...they DO all sound alike, and when you hear them talk, it's like young Bryant Gumbel voice kid who smokes DANK WEED 420 with Connor and Bret.
Fam...are y'all all trolling?
Can you tell me what separates any of these goofass cloud rap/troll/stream of consciousness dudes from each other? Or are y'all trying to fake rebel against what's considered dope?
I've never heard ANY young street nikka in real life fukking with this shyt.
No travis scott, no lil b, no lil yachty, none of that. It's for cacs.
