Not big Reek pulling up to correct niggas
it’s just kind of silly lol, I’ve been documenting them
had a sick ass band from south korea come thru to headline this past weekends local show. was insane and completely diy
Every time there's a new generation of rappers now they get described as punk
Not because there are any similarities to punk
But just because it sounds cool to say
yes
think it's kinda corny when guys try and claim they exist outside the genre.... no one wants to be the new rap goat they wanna be pretend rockstars :/

cos da elderly don’t support real rap anymore
niggas are everyhing but rappers even tho they want to be called rappers for some reason
come on man lol
I’m at local punk shows like every week, it’s thriving here. tampa, orlando, miami, jax are all great, and then the better bands play up into atlanta and philly etc. insane energy, the diy venues get completely packed. it’s a proper scene
yea i wasn't really tryna be dismissive of scenes but ultimately i don't think these two things are a 1-in-1 comparison that should even be made in the first place due to the natures of both (grassroots/indie vs. internet/major label infrastructure)
yes
I couldn't go outside without hearing those songs in 2018, I have yet to hear a Osama/NetSpend song while touching grass

these tik tok nih ain’t goin outside but da impact is the same these kids r chronically online they not exactly 1:1 2 the previous gen
"punk is fashion and soundcloud"
nothing about any of these dudes is counterculture. being rap that isnt boombap isnt counterculture. you are describing mainstream pop punk.
Dis Ian?
people were calling waka punk in 2010 too
crazy how not a single one is sxe
Unironically think Waka and the early Chicago drill movement embodies the punk ethos more than any other rapper after
ya
No offense but I don't believe you were out like that during cartis peak singles if you genuinely believe that lol
punks place in hip hop is still politically charged or at least similiar to punk/hc/metal
punk hip hop crossover already exists with some bands like soul glo, e town concrete, probably 70%+ of slam bands, zebrahead even and this isnt an exhaustive list. then you have your nascar aloes, zillakamis, etc
death grips was always closer than rappers rapping about doing d**** too
theres no reason these guys dont just make their own genre label instead of trying to water down one thats heavily active at the moment
to give you a really great example of a collab album/artist that is accepted in the punk world, check out HEALTH specifically Disco 4 1+2
this is just another cycle of people feeling insecure about their taste in music so they feel the need to dress it up in flowery labels like “punk” or “metal”, it’s no different how niggas were writing thinkpieces of how WLR was goth punk synth rap or whatever bullshit, just RYM schizo nonsense
ironically enough most rap fans actively look down on rock and any actual abrasive music like metal but that’s an entirely different conversation
I’m they biggest fan 🤷🏾♂️
Song is a banger
my music is the new version of another genre even tho im using rap production and marketing/genre categorization
this s*** isn’t any different than when crackers try to argue Travis doesn’t make trap music
hip-hop and rap isn’t artsy enough so let’s grab other genres and terms to make it sound more interesting and deeper than it actually is
