You can have all the flows you want and rap over whatever kinda production you want. It don't really mean much if you ain't really saying all that much to begin with.
man do the song sound good. f*** all the other s*** lol
What the f*** is creative about rapping about wanting to overdose, your dead homie, and wanting to kill your opps? Because that seems to be what 80% of rap songs are from today's rappers.
Not to say these can't make for good songs, at times they are relatable songs. But for the most part, most of this stuff has been rapped about in much more unique, and I hate to use this word, "deeper" ways.

In most cases...no they don't lol but in the end that's subjective.
You kids man i swear smh
then they will hype up nba youngboy dropping the same album 10 times in a row
KTT hypes up Yeat and Youngboy and then gets offended when old heads call them out y'all will grow out of trash music in a few years dw
all you need to be a popular rapper these days is be sad and like anime, have fake guns or be a pedophile
Sidebar, who the f*** even is this dude? Some Youtube vlogger turned rapper? Man get tf up outta here
How can you say they more creative when most of them just trend hopping
Like any era there's a select few visionaries moving the needle and then everyone else following
In my opinion No one out right now is more creative than say an Outkast or Wu Tang Clan .
crazy to me he’s saying this when his biggest songs are with blueface and gunna
is he saying these guys are better than older rappers?

S***, they hardly more creative than f***in Lil B, Soulja Boy, and Yung Lean. Those the dudes who made it possible for these new generation rappers to even exist.
He couldn’t be more wrong if he’s actually talking about the rappers of “today”
But if he’s talking about early 2010s rappers I agree.
Early 2010s easily the most creative era of hip hop

one of the worst rappers i’ve ever heard
ironically tho he’s not one of the most creative/original artists he’s just a drake wannabe but he’s still right
If he said in the early to mid 10s then he would have a point but now? mainstream wise?
Who’s better than Black Thought?
there will be exceptions of course
we could argue all day that there’s a good deal of rappers better than black though. In his conscious style I think most people would agree Lupe is/was as good if not surpassed him lyrically. Kendrick, Jay, Em, etc
I think he’s confusing creativity with diversity. The game is a lot more diverse now which is cool.
This
Old rappers never had the creativity to poorly rap over a drill remix of the iCarly theme song
Here's the thing. It's not that the past was less creative.
It's just that a lot of creativity in the past has been copied and "Shang Tsunged" so much that it doesn't seem creative to people anymore.
Plus, the Internet has helped us get exposure to all types of weird acts that you would have to go to a record shop to discover in the past.
How many times have we've seen Three 6 Mafia's beats and flows get straight jacked by the "creative" generation of today?
And Outkast, RZA, MF DOOM, Tribe, Bone Thugs, Kool Keith, prime Eminem, Pharrell, Timbo, prime Lupe, Kanye, etc. have done tons of creative s*** in hip hop before that has gotten borrowed and copied so much that people don't think of it as "creative" anymore.
So, it's all a matter of perspective.
Production is subjective.
But, pure spitting and lyrical wise, this is beyond false lol.
