Lil skinny ass niggas making pokemon sounds over beats that sound like youre getting evaporated by the event horizon of a supermassive black hole

Great year for R&B

Sampha, Daniel Caesar, Brent Faiyaz, Weeknd’s Idol songs

then other albums like PinkPantheress, Teezo, Yachty

hip hop just dropped the ball that year

I was told it wasn’t his era so who cares?

Can’t go around claiming it’s your era and then say wait nvm someone else dropped an album

Iceman AOTY out now

The genre died in the mainstream when higher ups decided to give a guy a Super Bowl performance for falsely accusing another rapper of being a pedophile. Normal (non hip hop fans) people don’t wanna be involved in that weirdo s***.

But who cares if it’s big in the mainstream lol. Still great music out there, and still so easy to ignore dogshit country music

Lmfaoooooo

Did you miss the part where it said the biggest prev decline was 2023, before the battle?

If anything 2024 briefly resuscitated the genre

Not on my zune

But, but, but I thought Drake was supposed to save us and put us back on top

Wonder how much this has to do with late 90s/early 2000s culture coming back to Gen Z / alpha

That’s when rock was admittedly dying out but also still had a lot of popularity

I’ve even seen mid 2000s emo/scene culture coming back, s*** even some rap artists have been emulating that aesthetic

Oh hell yeah

Drake stans don't live in the real world.

not on my nokia N-Gage

its not for the masses

Unironically have a Nokia phone

Yea but Iceman Turnt

Country bout to be played at Magic City now?

I thought iceman did good do they conseder it pop?

Perfect time for a frank comeback
