The tech to make music is more accessible than ever.
Explains the increase in supply, does not explain the increase in demand. Remember these artists have huge adult fanbases

Illiteracy epidemic
log off and stop making up millennials to be mad at
Come on man, I did not invent the idea that millennials are manchildren

its not an idea and its entirely meaningless, 'a is all bad things and b is all good things' is unserious

Every thread from op is a confusing, terminally online bash session for whatever group/person he has decided he is superior to today

That's an unserious interpretation of my argument

im making sure there is no way you start explaining to me what you think any of the words you utilized mean. thats what would make it unserious
I don’t think this is a hiphop problem. There are plenty of people that are 30+ and openly come out saying they watch Anime

#NotAllMillennials
Are you not familiar with Bow Wow/Lil Romeo/Wayne era…
There was multiple kid rappers that were actually mainstream and huge then. I don’t see anything like that today.
As for underground, modern technology and streaming has caused making rap music so accessible that I’m sure there’s more aspiring rappers in general period (for any demographic: age, gender, race, etc) than ever before. You could find aspiring rappers in Ukraine.
Mandem dont know what an “era” is.
And ask me what happened to chi-ali, kris kross, and most child rappers when they hit puberty?
The generation that spent the past decade whining about Baby Boomers now pretends that they are above intergenerational insults and it's all a distraction from class struggle (which they are advancing less than Boomers btw, your Red Army Faction is what? Bluesky?)
? are we gonna act like kids haven't been trying to rap since forever? Inspired by what they saw outside back in the day, to now what's available to them on the internet?
nas made illmatic at 20, which includes some bars he made up when he was 16. you think he wasn't rapping as a kid/pre-teen?
Nas was also seen as a prodigy and an exception to the rule, NOT the norm because of how good he was as a teen
People bringing up illmatic to defend these pill popping and (good neighborhood raised) gun toting tweeners who only source of inspo is keef, carti (and his pinterest) is hilarious cause it’s nowhere close to the same lol.
Nas was doing this at 17

people like lil Romeo weren’t talking about popping percs and shooting oops they were talking about wanting to get a girls number or dancing with their crush or some s***

They know what @op talking about lol, they just being obtuse to not engage with it
There’s this big effort by (mostly) cacs to make it seen like there aint nothing srsly wrong with rap rn so rhey try to normalize s*** that wasn’t normal back in the days lol.
c***pedos figured out how to keep kids around them without anyone questioning their behaviors :vlosereave: noticing

my red army faction is to participate in color revolutions and elect a rapper for the president of madagascar
Theres been kids in rap for my entire existence on earth
I think the difference now is music is more accessible to make nowadays and social media is free.
OP was bumping MattyB raps
f*** outta here lol
I rather my kid bump MattyB than whatever is going on rn

your kid would be a cornball
kids like what they like, adults over a***yzing it and contextualizing it to their world is weird as s***. most kids like exactly what adults don’t enjoy a lot like Taylor Swift or Bruno Mars
APT went platinum in my house cause it’s kid a friendly song. the demon hunters s*** went crazy cause it’s kids friendly.
all this rage, devil adjacent s*** is weird and gonna create another d4vd situation since we know the underground is full of pedos

unless they home schooled, it’s inevitable. best thing you can do is curve it at home, not let your child be invited to discord groups to “produce music cause they such a talented 13 year old” cause we know exactly where that gonna end up
this a sick world, let kids be kids, not rage producers
