    After a culture has been fully commercialized, it dies.
    Look at rock. No new exciting rock bands has come out in years

    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

    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.

    It wasnt YouTube rappers and influencers going #1 so this is a dumb take.

    This is a result of Billboard changing the rules to help white pop artists compete against hip hop streaming and the mainstream industry actively ignoring hip hops emerging stars

    Nah it’s just because nothing good has been released this year (2023) for hip hop

    Hip hop is very cheap to make compared to other kinds of music. Since lots of hip hop does not have actual instruments being recorded it’s cheap and easy to make songs for it compared to songs that have guitars or musicians playing instruments and recording.

    Because of this hip hop is likely to remain popular.

    Less commercial success doesn't necessarily mean it's dying out

    Just because it's less commercially dominant doesn't mean it's less commercial

    Have you been to a Keem show and see how diverse his fanbase is? It’s definitely helped him out more than anything else would have lol what are you talking about?

    For sure

    I don't think hip hop is becoming less commercial either tbh

    If anything it feels like a lot of "underground" guys are on the exact same model as the popular guys.

    Hip hop declining in popularity is good for the genre

    Rock music declined commercially and the genre is very healthy right now. Sure the commercial fanfare is gone but the actual music is fantastic year after year

    Only time commercial decline genuinely hurt a genre that I can think of would be jazz. Damn shame.
