    nah it was because streaming and the internet finally removed the vail that the cracker industry put in front of our faces through monoculture and radio control.

    rap has always been the most popular genre with youth espically during the 90s lol, you really think katy perry was bigger than lil wayne organically?

    east coast vs west coast was one of the biggest cultural events of all time. i dont think u realize how much black culture dominated the 90s and 00s, by the time we got to the 2010s the internet allowed hip hop not only to be represented without the typical outlets such as tv and radio, but it showed the unparalleled influence african american culture (hip hop) had on the entire world.

    the only reason why hip hop became the biggest genre on earth in 2016 and not 1996 is because everyone didnt have an iphone back then. we have always been the biggest and best, we just finally got the proper channels to prove it

    So you agree with us that it’s bigger, thanks

    Well-written post, but not totally accurate. Yes I’m aware how prominent black culture was in the 90s (that’s been the case basically every decade since the 70s), but there is still nothing to suggest that hip-hop was the most consumed genre of music in the 1990s. It was still a budding genre that was figuring itself out.

    Yes, the industry made attempts to stuff us out whether it was via radio or Billboard, but you could see as time progressed that there were more and more rappers putting up major numbers from the early-2000s on who were simply undeniable: the Jays, the 50s, the Waynes, the Kanyes, the Eminems, etc.

    What I’m saying is that the success of Not Like Us wouldn’t have been possible without the runway of commercial success of the 2000s and 2010s that led us to that song in 2024. If Not Like Us had released in 1994, it wouldn’t have taken the world by storm, because hip-hop was not at that level globally yet

    We got a Dreamville label album, two Cactus Jack label projects, two YSL label albums, a faux-TDE label album in Black Panther… I really wonder why we never got an OVO label album

    we did, it’s called NWTS

    Still not accurate. Streaming didn’t take over until 2016. But still, during the entire 2000s decade and even in the first half of the 2010s you could see how popular hip-hop was commercially on a mainstream level, both nationally and globally. Streaming only revealed the raw data, but the signs were there all throughout the ‘00s and early ‘10s in the forms of the various acts that I mentioned.

    Hip-hop did not have that same global level of popularity in the 1990s, with or without the internet
