RIP DMX

[Roobs321]

Hip hop has gone from the raw lyrical honesty of the street life that many African Americans go through accompanied by heavy aggressive headnodding hypnotic beats of the late 90s and 00s to insipid candy ass unrecognizeable bubble pop production, coupled with that weird generic nauseau inducing mumble crap embarrassment that today's young rappers have taken a liking to. It's a travesty what current rap has turned into.

I think it is normal for hiphop to evolve over time (much like other genres have, from rock to jazz to pop to metal). There is still some 90s boombap around nowadays, but yeah trap and emorap are a bit more in vogue nowadays. They all have things to offer though, as much as I adore a lot of 80s/90s hiphop there are still some appreciable stuff nowadays too. I actually prefer Australian rap to American rap nowadays, think they've caught right the hell up.
