Fr, Buck need to accept his truth and keep it pushing. It doesn’t tarnish his legacy or anything. He got caught up too many times and he’s still that nigga in my eyes. It’s about to be 2024 soon, there’s no reason for him to go out like that. When he do the most. He just give 50 more power.
If he owned it he'd gain more respect
A lot of his Memphis brethren know exactly what he's doing and still ride for him. It's a non-issue and 50 isn't even hot like that to be pissing Buck off that much
s/o both though for their music
“Name a good new rapper”
“Kendrick”
“Kendrick isn’t a new rapper”
“I know.”

doja will never get any flowers on here don’t even bother
probably one of the most talented artists to emerge relatively recently though
Doja incredible
Buck was fire
Straight Outta Cashville a genuine 2000s classic and Buck the World was hard
How you gonna say you love the 2000s and slander G-UNIT SOUTH

Don't like Jay, don't love Nas, don't love Wu. Only NY act I love is BIG, like Tribe and I love GRODT and Illmatic. Rest you can keep. West Coast the best coast
Name one rap album after 2020 that’s not from a legacy artist that is as good as the loved albums from the 2000s and the 2010s.
I legit cannot think of one unless maybe genesis owusu counts and I don't even think his albums are really that good in full
doja will never get any flowers on here don’t even bother

She’s better than all these male rappers imo.
Shes just built different. Unlike them, she’s exceptional live as well
so youre moving the goalposts in order to suit the narrative of this thread
to think i almost took this thread serious
I'm saying that good music is still coming out
That's it lol
And Kendrick has dropped a classic in the 2020s, so it counts
Why you ignoring the rest?
“Name a good new rapper”
“Kendrick”
“Kendrick isn’t a new rapper”
“I know.”

Or they just say jid
We love music.
Which does make most of us out of touch with how it is consumed recently.
Rap is stagnant as f***. No one is really being creative
You aren't looking hard enough man

You guys put too much value in being “in touch” and force yourself to like anything because you feel the need to keep up with 8 year olds on Roblox
Have some self respect
The more I think about this I wonder who actually is in touch with music
Does it mean the people who chart watch or listen to radio all the time?
What even is being in touch with music at this point in time
Being open to new artists and being an active listener (seek new cool music out on your own) instead of a passive listener (being fed music by social media or playlists)

Yeah man all the 8 year olds listening to rap like that

You can enjoy the legends and keep an open mind to the new lyricists simultaneously
Like I said we got plenty of room at the table
I remember when GKMC came out it was so beloved that it led to conversations about whether you could call something an 'instant classic' or not
I haven't really seen this so far this decade

This is something i feel like doesnt get said enough
The average rap fan in 2023 is some scrawny pimple faced white teenager idk why ktt is so obsessed with keeping up with that
I mean i DO know why but lets not get into that
If I dont gas Little Simz Im out of touch apparently. She only got 2M Spotify listeners 8 albums later. So out of touch with who?
“Name a good new rapper”
“Kendrick”
“Kendrick isn’t a new rapper”
“I know.”

You didn't say "name a good new rapper"
I'm being gaslit itt

Idk does it make me in touch I like 10000 gecs and was willing to hear/hate the earlier projects?
I like dj smokey and rxknephew as well as listening to legit anything new on Fridays whether I like the artist or not
But Im not sure if that makes me more in touch than trying the teezo album or Zach Bryan one
Just feels like being in touch today is way different than in 2013
Yeah man all the 8 year olds listening to rap like that
Yeah dude I was definitely referring to every living 8 year old!
