He absolutely was
Now don’t get me wrong, Some of the stuff he was saying was real. He obviously grew up around violence
But wouldn’t that just also make him a dumbed down rapper?
I dont think he's dumbed down: he was 16 when he became famous with very little formal education. He was pretty articulate in his music if you look past the slang etcetera. He has a lot of quotables.
He also has verses in which his delivery and lyrics were very poignant in a way that ive never heard Carti do.
Verse starts around 2:10
I also put huge blame on Eminem and the Hopsin types
They managed to make being “lyrical” so uncool and nerdy that people just straight up didn’t want to do it anymore
This sounds like a joke but I’m 100% serious
i forget it's a pandemic album sometimes you're right that album is hella influential and it's not even 4 years old yet
My Turn was a covid album too. Heroes and Villains was right when pandemic ended

i forget how big these albums were sometimes because everything moves at such a rapid pace rn that it's really hard to gauge and process what is successful in the long term. doesn't help that COVID f***ed everything up
WLR and EA began the decade. Covid hurt both their max impact but it was still there
They just were not good.

Dudes having been rapping about s*** like this since the 90s
Except they were actually good as f*** at rapping
Every generation since has continuously dumbed it down. Now we’re at a point where we got guys like Yeat just straight up making goofy noises
Kendrick is literally receiving more praise now than at any point in his career
Huh?
The same way lil skies who pronably born mid to late 90’s made “real hip hop” when he thought it was still en vogue lol
Any knowledge of trends means you seen that type of stuff trending these past few years
YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW GOOD LIL SKIES WASS!!!😭🔥😭

if you cant see how this is different than what the majority of 90s rappers were doing then....
Only rappers who remind me of this from the 90s are Dblock and i guess 50

That dude lil skies really tried to jump on every possible trend till his SoundCloud one popped off
black gen-z underground fans gotta be the most pathetic group ever. they’ll literally see a suburban white kid performing the most overtly racist stereotypes ever and gas it to high heavens EVERY. SINGLE. TIME

But will hate on Osama for doing tik toks lmao
