Rap sucks now :(

[RichardE]

I use to listen to rap/hip hop a few years ago... ( 1999-2002) than got into the rave scene and stoped listening to hip hop or even paying attention to it. Brought up itunes radio today...and hip hop sucks so badly now...

You can't spell. Period.

2pac was the best

 

[Skunkwourk]

yeah I just stay away from most of the mainstream stuff...

 

[JS80]

Rap pretty much died alongside 2pac and biggie

 

[construct]

Rap wasn't really my thing ever, so I cannot really sympathize with you.

Too bad the rave scene has sucked for many years now. You just missed the boat on everything huh?

The vast majority of hiphop produced past 1996 has sucked terribly. In fact 99% of it does not deserve the label of "hip-hop" and should be called "rap".

Where is "up here"?
I guess there is still a scene there, but in general it's gone from underground to totally sold out.
Superstar dj's didn't exist when I was loving it.
But enjoy it either way.

Pain by 2pac is the best rap song I've ever heard

I find it extremely hard to believe that it was ever good.

I don't think I've ever hated anything as much as you guys appear hate rap...

 

[mzkhadir]

Right now I am listening to

DJ Clue
Funkmaster Flex

 

[AznAnarchy99]

i dont know how they hate a whole genre. i like all music from country to hard metal to rap to slow r&b...

anyways all rap from 98 and so on suck except for a few exceptions from old gs like dj quik and new people like common and kanye

 

[Reckoner]

Rap used to have a meaning, now it's just about political nonsense and clubbing.

I've listened to classic rock on WNCX (98.5) since the late eighties, only 10 or 15 years after rock's hey day. Don't any stations play "classic rap" now?

 

[effowe]

There's a huge underground scene out there, especially on the West Coast. Look into Living Legends, Project Blowed, Freestyle Fellowship, Visionaries, Afterlife, the list goes on and on.

 

[Proletariat]

Kanye, The Roots etc...

Theres a lot of even semi-mainstream rap thats amazing.

I think all music sucks these days especially Rock aka Emo
