Eh

Drumless

I love what everyone does but what Mike does with a sample is a lane of it's own.

white ass rym of course does this. Giving this s*** a sub-genre name is the worst thing you can do to the craft.

"drumless" sounds dumb asf

"damn drumless genre I guess outkast were really ahead of their time"

it's called hip hop bro.

putting a name on a type of music cause of production puts that s*** in such a box.

And yes, I think 'lo-fi' is a dumbass name too lol. It's hip hop.

Certain songs by Rick Ross, Kanye, Kendrick etc. really were the future

Roc Marciano & MF Doom the drumless prophets LMAO

They only added the drum less tag to sound more sophisticated in their music taste and alienate a sound because the brand of just hip hop seems too general to them not knowing that does the sound a disservice because artists making the music refer to their music as hip hop and it’s an insult to the diversity of the genre. In basic terms pretentious white fans with a self importance complex want to coin a term for exclusiveness to be different I guess

They’d be mad as f*** if we called something like indietronica as “sugar electronic” or some s***

amazing track hate his voice had to get so shredded up

White people weird with genres like wtf is idm??? Intelligent dance music, is there a stupid dance music out there as well? Dance music got a degree or something?

ya my s*** dumb

Yo s*** do be dummy slapping

Can we call airlab fans the airheads?

yes

THANK YOU.

Especially since no snare rap songs aint new at all n been around since at least the 90s

Underground AND MAINSTREAM

Niggas like Justice League & Madlib etc. BEEN had beats popping without snares or even kicks, just bass & instruments or rappers like Roc Marciano & Retchy P lol not to mention some songs on Yeezus, TPAB, Cherry Bomb etc. You gonna start chopping albums into individual genres now as well?

So dumb, especially since its been a regular thing. Such a needless differentiation 💀

It’s just elitism that really runs this circles tbh they wanna be able to say created a term to feel validated in their taste like who says something needs drums in order to be hip hop? Hip hop was built on rhythm and poetry drums isn’t the main driving factor. That’s like me going to a producer and saying “you can’t make house music because you live in a apartment”

how tf they tryna colonize hip hop

S*** is od stupid, one of the reasons i never got into that site nor crowd 💀

Luckily i grew up with this s*** n come from a rap oriented city so i can talk about this s*** irl n otherways without a place like that thank god.

It can be good for finding new music but I’ll never go to that site to have my opinion curated on s*** they we grew up listening too from folks who come from shoegaze and alt rock backgrounds and got into rap about 2 years ago trying to create meaningless labels in a already inclusive genre

I think it's just to give this thread a proper name cause sLUms doesn't encapsulate all of the artists discussed here

Quote of the year.

Alc said once to not call it boom bap or 90's inspired. Even though it is rooted in it, it's a whole different thing.
