What rappers from the 80s & 90s would be considered weirdos if they were modern day rappers?

A kilt isn't a skirt. It isn't associated with "Gay shyt" or anything.

I'm sure those guys are just showing off their Scottish heritage. :martin:

I don't have a 90's agenda, people (mostly younger people) just get defensive when I call the bullshyt out.

This era made gay marriage possible. For better or worse things like masculinity and gender roles are not what they were in the 90's. That affects everything, including hip-hop.

Whether or not you want to agree is :yeshrug:

I'm not saying Young Thug gotta come out explaining anything. I'm saying he went the exact opposite route and openly embraces people thinking he's gay. If you're saying that would fly 20 years ago, you're insane.

A group like PE or a solo act like early Ice Cube could not exist in the mainstream in 2016. The biggest "rapper" in the game is a suburban Canadian Jew, if you're telling me "Death Certificate" era Ice Cube could co-exist nowadays, again....you're insane.
Wayne wore women's pants at the top of his run, let a new rapper drop "No Vaseline" in 2016 though....it would be the end of his career. But nothing's changed, right?:comeon:

For the record I'm not even saying we need a song like that in 2016. I understand time goes on, things change. But you sitting there talking about "weird then is weird now"....you sound silly.

Thug doesn't give a fukk, he fukks bad bytches, has multiple kids, his music is popular, and he has street cred. He'd be alright in the 90's, he'd be made fun of but all people care about is music at the end of the day.

A suburban Canadian Jew who is apart of one of the great families in black music and has heavy Southern roots and spent significant time in Memphis. I don't know why people ignore that. There's modern day conscious, pro-black, and anti-establishment albums like To Pimp A Butterfly and Yeezus today. I'm not saying there equal to DC but just like people bumped Cube as a response to social injustices then people bump Kendrick today.

You rambling about a bunch of shyt that doesn't matter. 90's had weirdos and we have weirdos now who get crucified. Weirdos aren't the majority like y'all make it seem and no they aren't accepted without catching hell.

Also, those kilts and skirts were a part of high fashion and streetwear it was a silly trend :scusthov: who even people who came out in the 90's participated in (Diddy, Cee-Lo, Pusha, Andre 3K, etc.)
