Name some good artists under 25 not named Smino

Nope, I just don’t care as much to listen to all the new radio artists (not to imply they’re bad, but mostly not for me)

These albums?

y’all been saying this since 2010. just say you need to be put on to some other artists or don’t know how to look for new music cause that’s what it boils down to.

there’s plenty of s*** that’s probably exactly what you looking for out there

i know how you are, so my list won’t be for you some of those songs are a part of good albums though

Lmao I need my artists to make great albums

i feel like no music nerd is gonna overlook a specific genre for half a decade bruh you just don’t like rap as much as the others lol

why you giving out r&b albums and experimental beat tapes itt lol

what’s this r&b album you speak of

shlohmo combines current hip-hop production with rock in a cool way on that tape, that’s why i recommended it, george clanton does the same thing but with boom bap drums and vaporwave

Stopped listening to new rappers around 2018 since everyone’s just a clone of Keef/Thug/Future, the last new artists that I liked were probably Lil Baby and Baby Keem

Relistening to albums from a few years back that you might’ve skimmed through, and finding out that a lot of the songs are better than you thought >>>

Did that with Summer Knights, Honest, Darkest Before Dawn, Awaken My Love, and a bunch of others, it’s a good feeling every time

90’s-2000’s music is good s*** too. Nas, Wayne, Pac, and Jay are some of my favorite rappers and I still haven’t finished listening to their whole discogs yet

just thought it was weird you were recommending beat tapes and choker and corbin in a thread about rap but nvm

Now why would I do that?

Think the argument would be that young rappers don’t make great albums.

Lil boat a 10/10 don't quote me

Yeah.

This the vibe im on now

Every summer I always find myself switching to mainly listening to country cuz it’s usually a lotta lake parties, pool parties, festivals

But then Rona popped up

i didn’t recommend choker as a complete artist, hence why i literally recommended a single song of his that features him rapping over a hip hop beat

op mentions being tired of hearing the same beats which is why i thought it would make sense to give some instrumentals, considering how important beat tapes are to hip hop

the whole point is that people think the genre is becoming stale, but if you understand how genres evolve then you know it happens by pulling from other genres and time periods to create something new and fresh

no one could have told you 5 years ago that a song like The Jam could exist, s*** sounds like jai paul instrumentation and singing going over a trap beat, but that’s a direct result of rap melding with other concepts. Mainstream rap is at a standstill right now because it isnt doing that, it’s staying in it’s box

No I don’t because y’all don’t really love this s*** then. And it’s really not that hard to find

I give new rappers a shot but I’m usually disappointed

Only new age rapper I like is Melly and even he isn’t near the rappers of the late 2000s and early 2010s

I used to check out the mixtape sites every day to find new s***

I just listen now. i have absolutely zero investment in how trash or good overall the genre is.

Like Gunna's album is good for what it is, but it's a major step down and sign of the times for rap overall.

ppl exposing themselves for free lol

Holy s*** shade was thrown
