Beats starting the genre doesn’t mean the genre didn’t adapt. There’s a reason HipHop isn’t JUST beats anymore and it has niggas rhyming over it
Hip Hop would not be as popular as it is now if it was just beats and that’s a fact
Rap is actually a acronym for rhyming and poetry rapping was always about what you’re saying
Out of these current rappers? Baby will be the biggest because hes consistent enough and has a great story like Durk
but for instance, I think Piano G has more potential than both of them (it says a lot about Lil Baby). Is he “the one” ? no, the curve to grade these guys on is low compared to last era
!https://youtu.be/gxXCfSN3YYYPolo G can rap but what else does he do well besides that? Baby is better at melody imo and has more memorable lines/quotables. Polo can have potential all he wants but he’s gotta step it up as far as song making imo
Kanye and Drake been running the game and ya'll talking about lyrical skill mattering over soundscapes and beats?
I mean...I love lyrical rap to death and have lyrical rappers in my top 10(whom I separate from general hip hop artists) but there's no way ya'll believe that.
Travis was on a hot streak for years being non-lyrical as hell and it took a major tragedy to slow him down.
Every time I’ve doubted this guy he came through wit a song that I f***ed with heavily.
Will not doubt him again.

That’s what I’m saying lmao folks swearing up and down that lyrical ability still matters and it really doesn’t. It can only get you so far if you don’t have flows or melodies in your arsenal. Beats are more important than ever

he is the best in the game right now and i stand on that

Well you said it, he is more known for his melodies than his rapping. Baby needs to step up his rapping
The reason i can even quote Lil Baby lines is because of the melody attached to it, the actual bars are mediocre tho. In A Minute is trending in the right direction

baby can make a BLM song and its not even 1% corny and actually slaps
makes a song for a ja morant commercial with all basketball references nd its actual dope - extremely hard to do

wants and needs was the verse of the year

It was above average, I think that was an alley oop from Drake

Baby has stepped it up tho. He’s a much better rapper than when he started. Wants and Needs verse is literally full of quotables man.

this is an insane take

post the quotables, i know that whole verse
this is an insane take
post the hottest line from Wants and needs, just one line
he is the best in the game right now and i stand on that
Not going to argue that lol. I personally rock wit Kodak more but you can’t argue against Lil Baby witout some level of hate.
post the hottest line from Wants and needs, just one line
I’m not the goat but I fit the description
post the hottest line from Wants and needs, just one line
there aint no hottest line, literally the whole thing in totality is verse of the year
my favorite part is "Bigger the business, the bigger the office"
2021 renegade
Good hip hop is about beats lmao
Lyrical only s*** gets forgotten for a reason
if this was true producers would have longer runs than 3 years
cap, younger generations love receiving a good cohesive project as well

I agree with all those. BUT younger gen to me is an artist who dropped their debut after 2017.
These dudes are not young.
