No because rap was never just a phase for me I was raised on this s***
Lil Yachty was the final nail in the coffin in my opinion. He made s*** amateur sounding music and being a corporate sellout cool, it's been all downhill from there.
he's literally a good artist, you just grew old
I stopped checking for new artists and music when streaming starting taking off. The barrier-to-entry in rap is on the floor -- anyone and everyone can rap and produce and put out their music, which is great in it's own right, but it ends up being a dumpster-diving effort to find anything good.
Now, I just find new s*** by chance. If I happen to hear something dope on the radio, or a car passing by, or just playing in the background somewhere, I'll try to find it. Otherwise, I'm not putting in the effort
im as old as homeboy, im just saying at a certain point in life ppl stop liking new things, its biology. his music is great if u have the ability to start liking something new. i feel like most ppl hate on his music cause of reviewers and just group-thinking

Drake, Cole, Kendrick obvi will show is when their albums come out. Tyler (although i didn’t love igor), Kanye if he stops this Christian s***, ASAP rocky will be trying hard this go around since testing was kinda a dud. Just to name a few

Not many individual sounds in younger class. They all doing the same thing for most part.

Regardless of your opinion they are still making high quality music and caring about the art form

Just realized I stopped searching for new artists n s*** now(which is sad b/c I genuinely love dis rap s***) . I can’t help but feel like this s*** just took a nosedive as a whole. Most rappers now don’t give a f*** about the art form, culture, or making a quality project. No one cares about making a classic. they just care about the numbers,gimmicks, anything they can do to go viral.
On top of that, niggas rap over the same type beats, got the same flow. It’s just exhausting.
I real live look at the game like this now:
had this feeling for about 3 years.
Now in 2020 its almost unrecognizable to me, and part of that is just being an old fart.
The other part is that man this is s*** f***ing sucks. I just don't like the way they flow and sound anymore. Maybe its related to what 2 chainz said about how trap beats just have very different pockets.
And don't tell me to go search for the great music- the great s*** is supposed to bubble up to the top no matter what. That's how its always been. The links I get are always to some ok s*** that sounds real polished but is otherwise forgettable.

Not necessarily but I've slowed down a tiny bit, but it's mostly due to my mood during quarantine
It’s always nice to broaden up your taste a bit and listen to some new genres, I always do that but deep down it’s still hip hop that makes me vibe the most
