I'll tell you what. Post 3 off his best songs and I'll give them an unbiased ear and I'll tell you what I think.

Appreciate the ear but not going to go there breh.

Y'all like what y'all like, I like what I like. I got fond memories of being introduced to Lil Yatchy by my younger cousin while we toured the city at night and tried acid for the 1st time. You probably got fond memories of being introduced to Nas, or 50 Cent, or Chamillionaire of something. Music is too subjective and personal to be worth arguing about.

What I will say is that as far as the generation gap goes, respect goes both ways. Hip hop legends and their fans have this certain smugness about them. You want me to acknowledge that Lil Yatchy is trash, but when I've already been defending guys like Desiigner, Lil Uzi, Young Thug, and the like all year I stop respecting your opinion.

Cognitive dissonance. "Not every rapper I like is trash, so their taste must just be off.


breh u already know @B-boy went 0-20 in little league every season growin up and still got a participation trophy :mjlol:

Nah, we won a game my second season.

And negged for taking away my internet points. I worked hard for those!

Young dudes are going to ride for these trash rappers just out of spite. Go ahead young man; Show these old heads by intentionally lowering the bar & cheapening the art. That will show them.

Breh I don't even think its out of spite. These young dudes GENUINELY like this shyt. They've been conditioned too. The Artform known as hip-hop has become more and more ignorant as time goes on. What I mean by that is that the intelligence required in lyricism isn't needed anymore.

A song like this



would cause some of these younger dudes heads to explode from the intelligence displayed. All these younger cats need is a dope beat, catchy hook and an easy to follow Cat In the Hat type flow.

Modern-day so called hiphop is LITERALLY dumbing down an entire generation. And its being done by design. There's a specific reason why buffoons like Lil Yachty are given the highest platforms while actual talented rappers have to be "found".

Hip-hop requires the most intelligence out of all genres and look what its come to:francis:

:huhldup: Jesus... What in the actual fucc? How come Elmo here wasn't able to catch that shyt?

I caught the damn beat and I'm not even a paid rapper.:snoop:

Rap's about feelings and not skill anymore.
