When did caring about things become corny?
A whole lot of the SoundCloud era created this bullshit
Listening to this while looking at the man in the picture, like how can this sit right in your soul
It’s not serious
Nas wanted to protect hip hop from Ring Tone Rap
Jay wanted to protect hip hop from Auto Tune
Kanye wanted to protect hip hop from light skinned niggas
dont know if this post was serious but nas was lowkey right when he said jeezy killed hip hop “im not a rapper…” lmao
In the same way that wayne kinda did
By accident lol
Exactly. Here’s another great idea, talk more about the people supporting the culture instead of the “vultures”
We do.
Yall say “who” or just dont post altogether until them niggas get a co-sign lol
I hope there’s some people itt that make music so that maybe next time you’ll come allot harder than this suburban ass dockers tucked white boy who is getting recognition
The issue is (while i agree threads like these dont help), the obvious plant money that rich kids like ian have do make it so that you can never escape it. These twitter threads go to people’s fyp pages unprompted
Meanwhile some of your fav actual better blacker rappers and artists dont have the backing or money to do the same thing as an ian who legit is not like us. Niggas like kenny mason & pt that deserve 1000x this kind of promo.
I was just in another thread telling niggas that its crazy ian managed by bu and someone like kaycyy is
Lmaoo the same promo money whoever is sending to these twitter pages must not be in kaycyy budget
I said “sounds like”
Like how EVERY classic rock band does their best to sound like an old black blues singer from the ‘50s
so you saying iggy azalea deserves an apology?
If it came out in 2007-2009 nobody would have thought that lmao
I like barter 6 but there’s Future/Thug/Carti type music and what we’re impressed with there and there’s the verses we thought were hard in the early / mid 2000’s and i think pretending that they are all the same level of quality/effort/skill is kinda how we got here.
Why would a young nigga try to rap fr when he can use charisma/aesthetics/delivery/swag/marketing/a great rollout and have his project called classic in the same breath of all the other rap classics without having to have mastered the fundamentals of elite rapping?

i actually started making a thread initially about this same exact issue and decided against it because this site is so steeped in that trap poptimist s*** that it would’ve just been a troll fest

You’re comparing this to that corporate pop trash? C’mon, bro. At least say Macklemore or something
It's funny that yachty was the one to say that who is now b****ing about hip hop being dead who is now also working with Ian
i was at the interview when he said that dumb s***, niggas was in the audience laughing n lookin at him crazy
You’re comparing this to that corporate pop trash? C’mon, bro. At least say Macklemore or something
Macklemore actually sounds like Macklemore. GKMC grammy-versy kinda muddied the waters he’s ACTUALLY one of the few genuine white rappers we had tbh. Definitely can be cringe but he aint blaccenting his voice at all lol
Tell me what is the difference between 50s rockers sounding like black blues singers and an iggy azalea fam?
I hope there’s some people itt that make music so that maybe next time you’ll come allot harder than this suburban ass dockers tucked white boy who is getting recognition
Definitely make better music than ian, just don’t have the luxury of being a gimmick

Not trying to put words in your mouth, but trying to quantify songs like Halftime in pure technical rap skills really doenst cover the entire appeal
Idk if i said that right, english is not my first language but yea
Lil’ Wayne killed lyricism in the mainstream by making a minstrely show out of himself
this isn’t entirely true tbh
Wayne showed that you could skirt by if you had extremely strong delivery and “aura” on the microphone, but Wayne was still a rapper at heart (i mean as obviously shown by his mixtapes, he always had lyrical bangers on his albums too but eh)
i just think people plucked his delivery and various experiments with autotune, crooning and whatever else and built an entire career out of it without having to be good at rapping fundamentally like how he was, im not sure if you can blame him for that
Macklemore actually sounds like Macklemore. GKMC grammy-versy kinda muddied the waters he’s ACTUALLY one of the few genuine white rappers we had tbh. Definitely can be cringe but he aint blaccenting his voice at all lol

Why would Iggy deserve an apology? You asked me why I liked Ian’s songs and I responded pretty clearly.
What people like @Veggie and @twinkletoez dont understand is all this s*** is funny til you at an artist mixer (was invited by this drummer i played keys for a gig at recently) in BROOKLYN and you hearing all these young niggas music (black, white, and hispanic) and literally all. Of. Them. Sound. Like. Yeat and Carti.
BROOKLYN.
Sounding like rappers that either are or wanna be from Atlanta
I wish I was making this up.

Bro you’re genuinely a good poster dawg, you are better than this.

*who paid for recognition
*who paid for recognition
Every rapper has to pay to get put on it’s literally how all this works if you don’t pay you don’t play
