For me it’s a close one between lil Jon produced songs/ Pit Bull radio dominance/and DJMustard reign of terror

The metro/ Pierre Bourne/ wheezy/ southside era has been such a dope time for music lovers

whatever lil yachty was

Conscious rap remixes of popular street anthems

Huh

whatever lil yachty was

songs like this. Such an annoying beat bro

When everything had a wordless post-chorus of chopped vocal samples from 2016-2018

swag

Like old bubble gum rap yachty or do you not like him in general

DJ mustard for sure

during 16/17 a lot pop artists decided to release folksy country-Americana album about “getting back to their roots” and most of them were mediocre and unauthentic

Tropical house also was pretty meh outside of couple songs

Big room also is pretty awful

Lazy sample flips of hit songs from the 2000s. Oh wait

I’m not necessarily glad it’s over, but does anyone else remember the early 2010s acronym phase in rap? Y.O.L.O., U.O.E.N.O., T.A.P., FDB, etc. There were others and a lot of rip-offs from has-beens trying to cash in on the trend. This one comes to mind:

You wasn't feeling Her Loss?

Naming your album/mixtape __’s & __’s was a huge trend in the early 2010’s

lil pump

the 2014-2015 trumpet trap phase (e.g. Worth It by Fifth harmony)

Post 2016 soundcloud wave (thug, yachty, lil pump, etc etc)

trop pop (2014-2018)

"post 2016 soundcloud wave"
"thug"

SoundCloud Era

That lil no album rollout/surprise drop era e.g Beyonce

That Don't You Worry Child era where trance/edm was mainstream and everyone was going to Trance Parties (not sure how widespread this was)

Post some examples of this?

Yeah wtf 😂 thug is not a SoundCloud rapper

If i speak im in big trouble
