    Like I’ve been saying the whole thread

    I think they’re just lying when they say those artists are a major influence lol

    But what would Big Boi gain from lying about having Kate Bush as one of his favorite musicians growing up?

    Some artists just love another artist’s music man, they don’t have to make music that sounds like that artist to validate it

    I don’t think that was a lie

    Saying that was one of his favorites growing up ain’t that crazy

    I think making trap music the most popular rap music killed creativity in hip hop

    This just one example. This obviously not a summer song but it’s in the middle of the “summer” stretch of the album (controlla through summers over)

    “Can’t have an opinion on professional basketball unless you’ve played professional basketball yourself” level take

    Most niggas that play video games have never made a video game

    Most niggas that read books have never written and published a book

    That whole “you can’t speak on something unless you’ve done it yourself” concept is ass backwards

    i feel like most people that make something understand video games in a different way

    i have never been mad at rockstar for taking this long cause i know how it feels to have to top perfection

    “This is my favorite artist of all time”

    “So if they’re your favorite oat why don’t you take any musical influences or make any music like them?”

    “Because…”

    You're thinking far too linear, its art there's no set guidelines.

    Like Fader said if my favorite artist is Whitney Houston because her great vocals, and she inspired me to make music, but my talents are geared more towards rap, you might not see any direct influences.

    Also as Free Youngboy said with Uzi, one of his favorite is Manson but his music doesnt sound like his. But uzi took the energy, vibe and aesthetic from Manson and applied it to his music with his other direct musical influence to get the music he makes

    kendrick is a stretch lol, not saying there is no inpiration but he doesn't even put that much emphasis on complex rhymes like that lmao... nicki I can see, kendrick is mostly influenced by wayne and andre

    but for eminem as a whole he didn't really create a wave, he was too uniquely skilled and charismatic in what he did to influence hip-hop in a way that was easily replicable

    late to this but kendrick’s rhyme schemes are bonkers lmao, that’s like his most obvious Eminemism especially pre-TPAB

    But but it’s music that sounds good and is replayable. We can’t have that. It needs distorted sounds or some jazz instrumentals to be labeled a classic

    It’s about that time to get back to more ambitious instrumentation in hiphop with a wider time-spanning range of influence. More diverse sounds and styles; the trap influenced s*** is cool and we’re getting new subgenres out of that but the homogeneity atm is just not healthy for the genre. You don’t get TPAB with that, you don’t get Blueprint with that, you don’t get…you know what I’m saying

    The younger cats gotta step it up. And I mean any of you niggas born 1997 or later
