Generation gaps is what ends up destroying music as we knew it, the pioneers of rap knew what hip-hop was and what it meant..todays kids dont have a fucking clue, 16 year olds were born in what 1994? And by the time they listened to their frist rap record is was what? 10-12 years later, so 2004-2006..by that time hip-hop had already started a tailspin so they didnt know any different, they just followed whatever trend was out instead of listening to the original trendsetters..
I dont have anything against new school shit, but I want it like I want Grey Goose, in small amounts over a decent span, not forced all at once..maybe 1-2 club tracks per album, not 1-2 non-club tracks per album..thats just overkill, but thats what these ignorant kids are buying these days so thats what record labels are puttin out..thats why the newer rappers with an actaul message arent gettin albums done (ie; Obie Trice, Stat Quo, etc)
Very true.
It's all a vicious circle, kids buy the poppy hit tracks, so the Industry realises that's the way to make money, so they'll either sign artists who make poppy hit records or force good people to change style. Isn't that what happened with Obie at Interscope?
