This sub has gone downhill

Posted: 22 Dec 2019 03:54 PM PST

Where have the in-depth discussions gone? Why is every post either [VIDEO] or [FRESH] and of super popular artists? We all have spotify, we all listen to rap caviar, we all keep up to date. Are we heads or juts imply people who love pop? Would be great to see actual album discussions, highlighting up and comers, some underground stuff and artists we don't know. I know its difficult to keep the integrity of a sub when it grows to such a size, but this place used to be at leasta tiny bit relevant/useful/interesting and now it's just a carbon copy of XXL's insta feed and the top 10 rap songs on whatever music service you use.

I don't know about you guys and girls but I used to come here daily and now I barely check in every two or three weeks.

Edit: I just want to make clear I do appreciate the work mods do to try and keep this a decent and civil place. I understand it's a thankless job and you do it for free. Happily chuck my hat in and say I'd be glad to help. Just because I've had great chats here with people and some decent insightful knowledge and thoughts and it's sad to see it being diluted, whether that's through too many newcomers or too many young people who don't give a fuck (same can be said for some olders too don't want to paint everyone with one brush there's obvs youngers looking to engage as well).

Edit 2: I'm sorry if it's not nice to hear for some of you. I've clearly hurt one or two egos and it wasn't my intention. But reaction to the post seems to confirm my thoughts and there's lots of interesting discussion on possible changes. Again appreciate the work that's done by mods but it doesn't mean we should stop improving. I want to be more active here, it was just a sharp and sudden drop off in quality that I saw that made me stop coming as often. As others have mentioned, it would be nice to not have to look through hundreds of comments to find interesting discussion and to be able to go back and read it more easily (harder to do when its comment threads and not text posts).

I'll be the first to admit yeah maybe I miss some stuff. I'll put my hands up and say I could be more active.

That's what I'm doing now. Mods giving hate, it's a real good advertisement of the kind of culture here. I want to help make a change. It's not really great being abused for that.

We got some damn great music in 2019. Curious to see what everyone's favourite specific lyric was. Be it for its genius, incredible rhyme, or just plain fun, would love to hear everyone's opinions.

Ten Years from now, how would you predict the state of hip hop?

Posted: 22 Dec 2019 04:51 PM PST

The sound. The cadence. The content. What would change? What would not?

Legacy of Cole, Drake, Kendrick, JID, everyone else popping rn.

Would Em still be around.

What do y'all think?

[DISCUSSION] In 2017, hip hop surpassed rock as the most popular music genre in America for the first time. What effect has this increased popularity had on the genre, its portrayal in the media, and place in pop culture? Will this popularity be sustained?

Posted: 22 Dec 2019 06:00 PM PST

The 2017 Nielsen's year-end report said that hip hop was the most popular genre and this continued in 2018.

What impact has hip hop becoming the dominant music genre had on the way rappers interact with broader pop culture? With what rappers are popular? Is there something unique about hip hop and streaming that made this inevitable?

Discussion - Lil B - 6 Kiss (10 Years Later)

Posted: 22 Dec 2019 11:14 AM PST

YouTube link to album

Background

On December 22, 2009, budding rap superstar Lil B released his second studio album "6 Kiss," a 22-track project that would soon cement itself as one of the most influential hip-hop releases of the century. It featured several of the Based God's most memorable songs, including "Let The Eagles Go," "Pretty Bitch," and "I'm God," which is often considered to be one of his best tracks. It also features heavy production from a then-young Clams Casino, now a household name in the "cloud rap" subgenre who gave birth to many major artists including A$AP Rocky. "6 Kiss" runs at just under 90 minutes, making it actually one of Lil B's shorter albums but still a journey from start to finish.

Discussion Questions

  2. Where does this rank amongst Lil B's many full-length projects?

  3. In what ways would the rap genre be different today if not for the impact of "6 Kiss," and Lil B as a whole?
