    It’s like they forgot about the old heads who used to complain about the artists in the 2000s. Music isn’t getting worse it’s just different than what they’re used to

    All jokes aside though.

    when I think of hiphop all I get is angry. I am ready to admit that this forum has consumed my life. But the anger I feel towards this genre is concerning at times, seriously.

    first it's the style, its a matter of taste. Unfortunately it is now being embraced by people who refuse to listen to anything else. I, for one, am not a fan of this style. Its corny as hell and has a hard time not breaking into me when I listen to it, like there is some kind of psychotic patient coming to kill my sense of humor. Yolo rek bro. But enough of this s***. I could probably make a beef with any of the rappers in hiphop

    I don't say that all hiphop artists are terrible, though. I say that some of them are.

    A lot of us (I assume myself being one of them) feel that the hype machine for hiphop does nothing but disser these artists. For me, one of my favorite hiphop artists is Grandmaster Flash.

    Flash is a gifted rapper, the most versatile rapper the hip hop industry has ever seen. But he's also a master in setting hiphop apart from all other genres. Just off tone, rhymes, and patterns.

    because one of the biggest reasons hip hop is so problematic is because it has a f***ing structure that allows it to flourish in an environment of outright hate. Like an extended 'fuck you' to everyone who disagrees with you. It's a whole 'nother layer of racism that I want to talk about later...

    (sorry if it comes off rambley and un-coherent. English is not my first language)

  • People complaining about the lack of quality doesn’t mean they don’t like hip hop.

    Y’all let memeheads who don’t take the culture seriously run wild but wanna down the people who actually take the culture serious to prove a s*** point.
