BlueDreamMost people really aren’t ready to have that convo, but the decline really did start in 2016
So many people have nostalgia for that era because it was “fun” . But this was when rappers really stopped caring about having a genuine good verse. It started to become more about “vibes “
And music listeners ate that up, so then up and coming rappers didn’t need to actually rap well anymore to blow up.
And that’s why hip hop is in its current state
And I’m not saying there wasn’t good music during this era, but this was when lyrics stopped mattering
strongly agreed.

that's the difference.
And those people were corny for hating. If E-40 can rap his ass off and make club music why couldn’t anyone else? It’s that northeast rapper mindset that really screwed the game up. Yall were having fun in the 80’s but when the south was doing it in the 00’s it’s a problem lol

Lyrics always matter the problem isnt lyrics its the sound itself. It became more edm than hip hop and since then the only innovation has been how loud and distorted can u make the 808
All of them had better rap careers than Joe budden

Wayne’s and Kanye’s are once in a lifetime artists. We don’t get that s*** every 3 years.

The modern south turned fun into the main event. So when the south dominated, fun dominated. And that's where the problems began. It's a nuanced conversation and we gotta have it without yall niggas having a chip on yall shoulder lol

As a statistically inclined person i think this is a little dishonest, youre sampling one point in history as if it in totality defines an entire group of people, thats not how the world works, like the other dude said its more nuanced
