Hopefully this is a sign that all the hypebeasts and vultures are finally f***ing off back to indie rock and other bullshit 🙏 this is a good omen that things are heading back in the right direction

how can you like hip hop and actively root for the genre to die out?

Hip Hop falling off is actually a good thing, interesting take

were those same hypebeasts who jumped on the trap wave ever actually indie rockers though

Yeah cause all the interesting artists died tragically….

i blame pitchfork somehow

Less ppl like 69 and other clowns wanting to use rap to get rich/famous quick

All them YouTube rappers, influencers who start making rap music

Less incentive for s***ty rap twitter pages that treat rap like a zoo to make content and thrive

These are all good things.

Hip hop will never die.

The fact you equate charts with whether hip hop of all genres is at risk of “dying” tells me all I need to know

It was doing perfectly fine for decades without being the #1 genre in the world. It will be perfectly fine again. This is a necessary correction after years of outsiders and pop bullshit preying on rap

Yeah no memorable or great rap albums so far this year.

I feel so bad for young listeners.

Needed a cleansing.

poor young rap listeners not having their #1s to fall back on

White kids from 2016 are finally going through their "I'm growing out of hip hop" phase.

cant wait to get their still sealed vinyl and all types of paraphernalia for cheap off of ebay

Most mainstream rap acts are just on their off season.

It's been nonstop drops since 2021

Yeah man the music is so good the crackers are listening to something else. Yelling over the endless deluge of dogshit being pumped out 24/7

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Underground been carrying rap for a minute

It's not rooting for the genre to die out it's to weed out ppl who are just listening for the trend

interesting

I mean I grew up with wayne Ye Jay Jeezy Kendrick drake future Rocky Cole krit currensy Earl Tyler Gibbs Jeezy tip mac Joey trav ect

And young listeners are getting to grow with…..

They have all music in the palm of their hands. Plus covid f***ed everything up. That's why so many hyped albums were held up and dropped last year. Now they have to work on new stuff.

Good

Yea bro EDM is taking over!

We blaming COVID still for the fact that there are no new superstars in rap that make great projects?
