Listen to this if you think this generation of rap music is bad.


If this doesn't remind you of 2PAC and early slim shady, I don't know what will.

Also Kendrick's verse on this.

 
If you like that style, Mc Eiht is still kicking it.
I wasn't aware of that. MC Eiht is great. :) Sometimes i'm surprised that this or that performer is still around, while others are gone. Whatever happened to Cypress Hill for instance?

Chicano rap hasn't really changed:

Sometimes remixes made recently can be good too:
 
How about you listen to an interview, and listen to how he talks about his local community, and what he actually does for the community unlike the big "pop stars" he's a really genuine dude, yeah he might sound a bit cocky, but it's rap, when hasn't a rapper ever been cocky, this dude does some real shit to help poor people out and that's a good thing regardless of what anybody says

he's no better than charles floate.

He was caught with a 14 y/o girl.

Fuck him, the nonce.

6ix9ine, trippie redd, 21 savage, young thug..and so on, all look like some type of circus, the saggin and shit its just so ridiculous.
 
I'm too young to have had the chance to grow up with old school rap and in general the era before the internet and social media, so this is just my shitty unusual opinion.
I believe egocentrism, narcism, in general the 'flexing' culture to have completely taken over popular music, and yeah rap is the new pop music now. Lyrical and instrumental quality aside, I think rappers today are striving to be something they are not to attract as much appeal and fame, while in the past I think musicians in general were a bit more in tune with who they really were. Mass appeal is the easiest (fastest) way to musical entrepreneurship, thanks to social media, and all of us know well what the common denominator of the Anglo-Saxon population is, some mediocrity that will settle for 'ok' music because its cool. Gary Vaynerchuk said this modern rap is just a different form of entrepreneurship. As such, I see music production today, in this given time, to be the way it is because popular culture is about 'brands' and not the 'product'. I hope you get what I am saying. All of these rappers are a brand.

I've been a metal kid for most of my life, only got into rap a year ago. I like Bones, Lil Skies, Merkules (thanks @Billy Batts), someone mentioned $uicideboy$, I like them too if you are into dark depressing shit. There's something for everyone I guess.

The lead from Cypress Hill, Chuck D, and Tom Morello from Rage Against The Machine formed The Prophets Of Rage, and they are pretty awesome.
 
@Asif WILSON Khan The boys from 6ix9ine fired some shots at Chief Keef and missed. These guys could benefit from some CQB training.

B is doing fine, so I guess we’ll be treated to more yelling soon.
 
Nah nothing like that.

Elvis was a revolutionary, Michael Jackson was a revolutionary, Freddy Mercury was a revolutionary, Bob Marley was a revolutionary! There will never be people like that because they were the ones who set the style! Same for rap!

They will get it when they grow older just as I did ;)

I'm struggling for the last few minutes to figure out if there is "revolutionary" in the 21st Century. Nothing. So 20 years inhaling bullshitionary nothing. Nothing. If not more than 20.

Im with u bro, but 50 needs to get in there too.. 50 is a real gangsta not some wannabe

And big poppa rules!
 
Just logged to say, f*** all of your mumble and "pop" rappers. OLD SCHOOL FOR LIFE!
 
There is defiantly a lot of rappers who think they're the biggest thing but they're not aka 6ix9ine.

And if you think he's the only crazy weird looking rapper out there, you're wrong.


Kind of sad to what rapping has turned into on some parts but good to see there is still hope in most of them.
 
2pac generation were real, they lived what they raped about and that made them authentic, nowadays rappers talk about shit they would never dare do. Biggest proof is the fact that 2pac and big died on the street, living what they raped about.
 
I listen to Future coz of some of his dope beats but cant understand a thing on what he says
