When i realized wizkid makes better music than any rapper in 2019
Real
Yo but here's the thing. Has there ever been a better time in hip-hop to be a Saba? To be a Smino? Hell, in some ways, to be a J. Cole?
Dudes like that (at least the first two) can tour, sell out shows and get even bigger venues the next tour, drop critically acclaimed projects, get big feature slots, while STAYING independent?
They don't need to make a "Work Out" like Cole did. They don't need to make radio hits. They can just make good music and it finds enough ears for them to live COMFORTABLY at bare minimum. And there are so many other artists like this I just feel like these are the two I can spotlight.
So while you may be out of touch with the "mainstream" top 40 hip-hop, perhaps for good reason, there might not be a better time to be a rap fan than right now. More rappers are rapping than ever, and there's more money in it than ever, so more dudes are becoming successful in their niche. You can pick and choose what you need from each little pocket and keep rocking, or you can find someone new and dope every day.
"unself aware"
what?
not being aware of how much hip hop culture is actually made for you and not being able to see outside of your definition of hip hop in general
Reminds me of when post Malone said if you wanna hear something that touches your soul listen to Bob dylan not realizing that he relates to Bob Dylan more

Maybe if you listening to surface level rap music. Mainstream rap is soooo damn dry and boring right now which isn’t new so it shouldn’t be a shocker that everything sounds the same with alotta new cats. And the mainstream rap right now is melodic so it’s easy af to make which explains the over saturation and mediocre s***
Bro back in the 80's there was a phenomenon that musicians were making music solely with the intent of appealing to his taste. He was the Fantano of his time.
Perhaps that’s good or bad 🤷🏾♂️. He’s real in my eyes
