Aug 17, 2023·2 repliesSkinn FoleyThere will never be another 1990s for hip hop
If anything, 2010-2016 was the closest we've ever come to recapturing the 90s. There is absolutely nothing like that decade for rap, the more you dig into the more you realize just how f***ing special that era was. Early 2000s were tight but straight up after 2003 the decade went off the rails and by the late 2000s got corny as s***. Late 2000s was and still is the worst era in hip hop history and if the genre is still alive today you can thank Lil Wayne and Kid Cudi for carrying that s*** on their goddamn backs in 2008-2009
Cudi and Wayne birthed all the s*** along with Drake and Ye that made the s*** go left less than a decade later lol
Rap honestly was okay until Drake kinda made it about success over everything. That rewired everything lol

50 did that tbh

Drake just followed their lead
Aug 17, 202390’s was raw
But 00’s was more polished, more radio friendly which isn’t a bad thing if u aren’t gonna be obtuse about it. Had more variety and still had those raw albums too

they had subject matter that wasn’t about that
that literally is his only subject matter post 2012-13 aside from money women and what his entourage will do to you
think about it lol

2wordsI’m talking mostly about mixtapes not those albums. The free albums/tapes during that period is legendary. Pilot Talk, Kush and OJ, Return of 4eva, More About Nothing, Covert Coup, Friday Nights Lights all hold up and can compete with MBDTF imo and that’s just a few off top
ok, I'll give you that. the mixtapes at the time >>>> mainstream rap.

This cap rap has ALWAYS been about success and braggadocio Jay z???? 50?? Nigga ye????? c'mon now u can't blame drake for being ultra successful that's like saying acting was great until Robert Downey jr(just using him as an example) made it about success cause he's the most successful

Aug 17, 2023I can’t think of a bad year in the 2000s. If it wasn’t Jay, Nas, Pimp Juice, 50… it transitioned over to Wayne, Kanye, TI, Jeezy…
2000s kept us fed fr

all of the guys you listed had subject matter other than that. Drake at times has too but after let’s say either IYRTITL or Meek beef his subject matter has solely been about how much more successful he’s been that others lol. Hov and 50 would give you the crack game war stories, Ye overshares sometimes to a negative degree lol. Drake has made his entire thing after a certain year obscure rich nigga references and I’m laps ahead of Niggas in sales and money lol + women

is pretty understated I discovered so many dope artists that way it sucks that the streaming era kind of made them obsolete- Aug 18, 2023murakamichain

Let's just agree to disagree
Aug 18, 2023I’m a little biased but I’d go:
1) 2000s
2) 1990s
3) 2010s
4) 1980sTop 3 are all super close though
Aug 18, 2023X7JQ9L2MF4A8Zoh yeah i forgot, we hate Kid Cudi on here because he has beef with Kanye or something now, right?
people hate Cudi cause of his antics and because he doesn't deliver good enough music to excuse those antics
Edit: actually, even without the antics, his music is typically not too good
