Young dudes so detached from the old school and viseversa, the conversations on what hip hop should be gets extremely awkward

Had a Wu tang logo avy, some young dude on ktt asked what country its from

Some of yall so confused.

Make an old school subsection or something

How old r u op

Hip hop is the best genre of all time

How about you let things evolve and change instead of living in the past

No. Genres and subgenres are easy ways to find other stuff you might like. That's it. They're convenient. No reason to abandon them because they aren't perfectly descriptive.

dumb question

@youngtubesteak @Bandito

Good idea actually

I see what you're saying OP, modern popular rap or "trap" is so detached from what we would traditionally call Hip Hop why do we keep it in that umbrella? But I think since it still shares its foundations from Hip-Hop and it can trace its roots from there, I think it would be better to label it a subgenre. It's like how Metal is very different from Rock n Roll's early form but it still shares its roots/culture so it's still under that umbrella.

Hip hop is cancelled.

ahahhahaha

OP calling zoomers out-of-the-loop, but he prob hasn't heard the new Juice Wrld. Ignorance is ignorance regardless of timeframe.

How did you fall for that Lil Nas X joke so easy

it is already their is generation of kids which only know the last 2 or 3 years of hip hop

it was bound to happened but surprised its taken so long to really become its only genre

Nope leave it to youngins, the dj akademiks, it will be completely done.

what we need is gate keepers

bro said youngins

Kinda but I don’t agree. I don’t wanna hear dust all day

There's literally nothing wrong with having an own genre BTW.

Sonically that s*** ain't the same, the fanbase ain't the same either outside of music forums.

fuk around and destroy the greatest genre of all time all in the name of trolling

i agree with this too

nobody destroying hip hop except the people acting like ignorant mfs represent hip hop as a whole

It's not destroyed, it's just completely different.

How do Xo tour life and life's a b**** fall into the same category in any manner.
