[Wacky D]

When warren g was on celebrity fit club hip hop looked good? Also it's funny hearing warren g talk like he's all about hiphop when there's people that blame him and gangsta rap/g funk for the destruction of rap altogether.

what does him being on celebrity fit club have to do with anything?
how did g-funk destroy rap?

He is right. Rock has labels for all different types of rock, we need the same shyt in Hip Hop. People who listen to soft rock or classic rock aren't the same audience for heavy metal or punk rock. Whatever this new dirty Sprite/Percocet/Xanax rap is I'm not with it.

There it is. They also have their own radio stations and TV networks for that specific genre. Even country music has different genres.

I remember before Viacom sold their souls for reality tv they even split shyt up between mtv and vh1. If you where into more rap and hard rock/metal you watched mtv. If you where into soft rock,pop,r&b you watched vh1.

Clear example Fantasy by Mariah Carey. Vh1 would only show the original but MTV would only show the ODB remix.

On the real he's actually nice as fukk. He mainly a producer and I think he does these skits to help him sell beats.

rap is indeed a young man's game. one of the things that attracted me to rap over any other genre of music is the competition aspect that IT USED TO HAVE.

the problem is, the torch was never passed to the new generation like pass generations. that got halted in the early 2000s when the rapping CEOs wanted to stay the man forever and didn't want to pass the torch. now the new generation that's out there is mostly just guys running with the torch by default with no real training, to put it figuratively.

there used to be a flow chart to this rap chit in the '80s & '90s.

Rap was a young man's game in the 80's and 90's because the vast majority of mainstream hip-hop was late teens/early 20's. Damn near the entire starting line up wasn't older than 22.

Half the rappers out now are pushing 30, or older than that. That alone means it's not a young man's game. Then you factor in the genre is 40 years old. Then you factor in there isn't really anybody to pass the torch to, even if that was still happening.

I agree. Vultures don't wanna do that tho cause if they had to stand on their own two without that false connection to past real shyt, they would fade way quicker.

Sorry yall, the hip-hop we knew it as is gon and never coming back

Its all about flows/singing and being as weird as possible.

Hiphop now is about who can make the strippers shake it the best.

Unlike the old days, you're gonna have to "dig" for anything resembling real hiphop.

Goodluck

To you it's wack because it's been presented as Hip-Hop. And there in lies the problem.

For someone like me who is 33, when I hear the Young Thugs and so on. I know I'm not listening to "Hip-Hop", so I appreciate it for what it is.

But honestly it's the laziness off the industry for labeling everything young Black people make as Hip-Hop or R&B, when it's clearly not.

Man what are you talkin about?

Riff Raff
Stiches
Yachty
Uzi
Makonnen (for like 3 months)
