that’s not gonna make hiphop popular again lol. we need NEW ideas, not just moving to the next era of nostalgia that already got us here with all this distorted punk bullshit

all that’s gonna lead to is niggas saying they are bored like they doing rn with Larry June

New ideas come from nostalgia / inspiration, which this next wave will find on their own

where does this go

new ideas have never come from nostalgia lmfao, it only reinforces that we are reliant on the past to keep creating today

in order to create new, you have to create away from past influences so you can directly reflect what is happening today in sounds and imagery. there’s a reason we in nostalgia hell rn

I just don't believe that

Lil Peep
XXX
Carti
Tyler
Thug

I'm saying direct inspiration is never bad, it commonly turns into something new and refreshing that ends up having staying power. Everything is inspired from something.

2 of those artists are dead, Carti is doing punk/Wayne aesthetics and currently people are saying Thug is mid and Tyler has been repetitive for 3 albums

Tyler, Thug and Carti ain’t been original for a while now

damn

so carti really invented Music?

wait wtf i need this

Trash album with AI slop, Carti should be ashamed of himself

Final stab

What about Snow Strippers

People saying Tyler has been repetitive for three albums are just wrong

i know it’s hard to admit bud.

anyway

been left the EDM scene in 2021 because it became filled with fans who just like everything an artist puts out, so I have no comment

I agree with you, but that’s the popular sentiment now tbh

This just isnt true, great innovation requires a high level of study of what has come before. Being able to take parts of it that worked really well and mixing it with your other unique interests

Our inability to fully be our present selves is directly correlated to a maintenance of things from the past lmfao

you cannot be your authentic self if you are using things that have already been done to construct your present world today. you have to live today and take what the world is giving you and react to it how you would authentically, not how Kanye would have in 2006 that you’ve redesigned today cause it worked back then. it’s better to fail not knowing your idea will work than to use things that have worked in the past because that’s how you find the new, original creations

there’s a lot of fans of artists that don’t think said artists have ever made a bad song, it’s especially heavy in the EDM scene lol. always thought snow strippers grew from like glitch mob/subtronics type s*** so naturally I just grouped them in that scene lol

What you have said is not mutually exclusive to my point.

it does though, taking parts of it s*** and hanging on to it for decades is what got us to where we are today lmfao. there’s a reason hiphop felt more alive when regionality was popular because everyone was in real time welcoming you into their city and their lives, niggas wasn’t tryna dress or rap like 90s NY rappers coming from ATL or vise versa (CEO Trayle is from Brooklyn but you coulda fooled me lmao, type s***)

we not getting inspired by 2025 and that’s the problem, we getting inspired by 1990-2006 and now niggas telling me they want to move on to 2010s nostalgia lol. by 2030, we’ll just look at this decade like nostalgia slop

new carti + rocky snippet
