    I personally can't wait til hip-hop and R&B returns to being more niche and primarily consumed by Black people.

    would not change the quality of what’s being consumed (still s***)

  • raps

    Even within that we still deserve widespread cultural moments within “the culture”

    You’re bringing in a whole nother conversation lol

    Post 2020 We don’t even have NWA Slick Rick LL Cool J Public Enemy tier niggas (recognizable pillars who can fundamentally rap even without super non black crossover appeal/from a pre BIG pre Pac pre Snoop super mainstream-ized rap) lol

    In a perfect world $ilkmoney would be platinum.

  • Smacked Voodoo

    Yeeaah no lmao

    Rap needs its “wait a minute the Knicks just won the chip? Blow this whole s*** up” moment lol

    Still gotta be the most rehtarded and non basketball fan/casual take I've ever seen lmao

    If everybody has a chance to win a championship, then that literally makes it harder for a team to win one.

    it is 110% an economic thing cause we're in a recession lol

    Not rap and only tangentially related but Olivia Rodrigo is doing 11 shows in Brooklyn. At this point with costs/luggage/travel/booking it's obvious they're expecting fans to come to them instead of hitting all the cities music industry is so weird rn

  • Dr Lee PhD

    Demand is a huge thing as well, I know historically older rappers could do huge shows overseas

    But economically this country is so f***ed and ticket prices are still ridiculous, of course it’s hard to do a stadium tour

    Demand decreases when you have to choose between eggs and a ticket to see a rapper rap over the mp3.

  • Idk man any artist propped up by social media just seems like a facade to me

    And that goes for Carti as well, for what his first week sales were he still seems a bit niche, which is probably by choice

    That's fire

    My goal is CD -> Laptop -> phone/iPod with something on the side just to keep up with new releases

    At 120 CDs I believe

    Well deserved, it’s been bleak

    Yeah I am not moved by the same f***in teams in the NBA Finals every year. That s*** is boring.

    my thing is, if a team is on top for a long time knocking everybody off then overcoming them is a huge achievement. like giannis and jokic winning was amazing but the raptors winning was that much crazier that it was the end of the warriors dynasty. lebron vs the spurs was that crazy because it was the king vs the guy that kinda ran the 2000s. when these names get built up for a long time it makes beating them that much bigger and the stakes way higher

    I respect that so much ngl I might have to really check this woman out just off a move like that.

    That's a whole different discussion. Parity can still exist without those dumbass CBA rules and second apron restrictions.

    Also I wouldn't have paid Mitch for more than two years so I don't really care that he's gone. Hope the Celtics look forward to starting him and realizing that he's no longer capable of being a full time starting center and they continue to collapse
