He's pretty much right tbh. Too many clones, too easy of an access point to the art form, the art form itself is not taken seriously, we're in a dark place for hip hop. Stagnant.

it’s because Young Thug is behind bars

Been like that for a minute Hedi

everyone should stop beating around the bush

it’s DEAD

it really isnt because hip hop isnt a genre

keep saying this so all the bandwagon yt people start listening to country again

Niggas had rap slow down for 1 year and suddenly its on life support
Yet other genres get the freedom of bein “dead” for years and gettin resurgence with no issue

From the man who made some of the worst rap of all time as soon as it got pop trendy

I heard Star Wars is alive and well Keep thst growth talk in the boardroom

He’s 10000% correct

“Who is making it and why they making it Is very different…”

🎯

There's more artists than just Thug man

Idgaf what this man got to say

what portion of them actually innovate though

"You get washed and old when s*** just sounds the same to you because you've heard so much. You know, I think the women are killing it because they have narratives. I feel like a lot of the guys, it's harder to have interesting new narratives now."

This point is interesting all narratives for men other than being from the streets are considered corny now. I don't think women in rap are exploring the narratives they could be tho

That just makes me curious which female rap artists he's listening to

same industry cap s*** they’ve all been saying lol

This isn't really a big deal, every genre that isn't new has this. At least rap continues to create sub genres every 5-10 years

this is when you get mfs saying s*** like sexyy red and ice spice are restoring the feeling

The 3 up and coming artists most likely to be superstars all died in the span of like two years

For sure didn’t help the genres popularity

cause hip hop is a commodity now and is treated like the #1 genre still, so while all this mid or forgettable s*** is dropping everyone’s witnessing the downfall be televised

Its taken so out of context it makes no sense as a quote on its own lol

Lol it’s always snappy comebacks with you
