dubious take imho.

plenty of good music coming.

Smino, Lil Baby, Denzel Curry and Mach Hommy to name a few been killing it.

this is a Yeat slander thread in disguise.

how so? Music was good in 2014 and 2015.
I don't remember Vine having much traction past 2016.

Sosa was huge in the vine era bro wym lol

maybe but theres stil a lot of fire artists out there

this year has started slow imo

Yeah I feel you. I liked Yeat’s s*** but honestly I haven’t gone back to it. Only thing I’ve liked recently is Kay Flock and B Lovee. Nothing interesting these days. But for sure looking forward to Durk and to checking out the dababy and YB s***

True. Not even underground rap is doing anything innovative

mainstream is shot to s***, u can say that m
but imma repeat what others have been saying.

underground is so extraordinary rn. i love what slums is doing man

we’re not gonna see mainstream pick up steam until certain artists make that next step. what’s been stopping some genuinely good artists from making that next step, has less to do with their own talent and more to do with pandemic.

live music really changes everything. sure there’s still shows but i think it’s still very hard to do it at the pace one needs to, to really build a large fanbase

It’s not exactly innovative but what the underground is doing (in some areas) is a fresh breath of air and more interesting imo than what we find on the surface

And even then I’m sure we can find someone doing something innovative

I mean the s*** like Griselda but like if you mean Summrs and all those dudes, I don't really like that s***.

True, but as far as artists that have dropped new albums/songs in the last couple of years they've been what I've bumping lately. Saba's new album as well.

its why i stopped responding to these threads

dudes not really interested in rap music like that

We’re still in the second golden age

Give me 5 names in the underground and I’ll listen to everyone of those names but I’m going to judge them on the criteria of what I think is a great rapper. Not a great rapper for today nor any interesting rapper but a great rapper from any era,I’m going to compare them with the best rappers throughout my history.

yeah I mean, ofc there’s always good music out there BUT yeah if the new big mainstream guys are gonna be Durk and Baby … then yeah, we’re in for a pretty boring era.

Bro literally just scroll up and read my post. Yall not even trying anymore and its sad.

People dont care about music anymore... Really feels like everyone a casual these days

That's the real argument to be made here

I’ve been spinning curren$y and Larry June lately

Thug f***ing failed us biggly

it is but complaining about it is pointless jus throw on a lil wayne mixtape or some s***
