Rap About Nothing: Hip Hop Chat Thread

Lazy take. **** has nothing to do with acceptance or any of that other mumbo jumbo, not sure why you default to that mindset in the first place. This is all about them making a poor bubblegum version of something WE created and profiting from it while shutting doors in our faces. People really dont understand or realize how deep this vulture **** stretches and how much it cheapens this culture we call hip hop. We don't want acceptance we just want the game to not be rigged. The blog boys, radio, media, the internet, etc. are all playing chess and we out here playing checkers

Ever heard of Elvis? Chuck Berry? They BEEN stealing. Soft behind n_ like you allowed it. Y’all let people in and expect them to reciprocate it, like idiots.

I’ve always been pro black. I see blacks pander and cry allllllll day about stuff like this. Certain ones ALLOWED it. So, stop crying and do something about it. If you ain’t trying to fix the problem, shut it up bruh
 
It's not a substitute for ability..it's an ability all in itself. And it's always been a big part of the essence of hip hop since rapper's delight. There's no culture without it. There's chicken and then there's well seasoned chicken
Substitute was a poor choice of words, what I meant to say overall was could it be used to compensate for other shortcomings for a rapper like they're music not being very good, or their actual rhyming ability being poor. I think thats a major issue purist or underground fans in general have with main stream music. At times it feels like style over substance

Rappers back then had swagger/style AND lyrics. So, what are you saying? Dudes like Slick Rick, Rakim, Nas, Biggie, Pac, Snoop, etc had style AND content.

Majority of these newer cats have neither. Y’all always talking “lyrical myrical” and whatnot to justify these new cats. Swagger, style, etc has always been apart of the American lexicon.
 
Man said drip is over the head of rap purist :rofl::rofl::lol:

As if the rap purist lacked style. They’re the reason why retro Nike’s, Jordan’s, etc are popular.

Dapper Dan is FINALLY getting his just due from Gucci and Louis Vuitton...

Rap Purist don’t understand swag and “drip” though...

They probably got Cuban link necklaces older than you :rofl:
 
What's funny is he's guilty of the same thing he accuses people of. He thinks people don't get his bars then he mocks migos. Raindrop (drip)..drop top (that's drip..) smoking on cookie in the hotbox (that's drip!!). Like he doesn't understand the function of swag in rap or that there are other elements to the music besides the lyrical miracle

thannnnnk u.

I'm not saying there aren't dudes that put style over substance, that's definitely an issue. But just taking bad and bougie for example. It's not just random words like em was implying on that track with Royce. Raindrop..it's a metaphor. Just like wonton soup is a metaphor but that went over heads too because people think it's just nonsense but really it's almost like a coded language. Raindrop droptop hotbox is simple as hell but some still don't get it. Can't really be explained just gotta understand

Did you catch that drip/over your head bar I just dropped tho. When I say purists I'm talking about the fans that think rap sucks now and someone like cannabis should be a superstar in the game
 
Hopefully this beef gets Kelly back to really rapping like it’s 2012. Puff pushed him way into that pop lane quick.
