I hate when these niggas talk around what they really want to say.
Tunnel man's got these niggas shook b.
This is why I can’t really listen to podcasts involving rap or rappers.
A good majority of them just talk in circles and say a bunch of nothing followed by “you know what I’m saying?”

Joe is mostly right, but its because these artists are STILL signing horrible deals. Then you have the horrible spending habits they all have, just so they can show off on social media. That eating up w/e money they make outside of rap.
And Pete Rock too old to tiptoeing this much. This that lame shit thats a problem in rap. People wanna speak out against the fuck shit in the rap industry, but are afraid of being labeled a snitch or hater, so talk about everything in some weird roundabout code that kills anything they were trying to say.
So afraid of offending someone in the industry, no one really knows wtf they were trying to say. Just a long vague rant about nothing.

Bro seem like he basically saying that some people were able to leverage their positions in the genre to be able to influence audiences to look towards certain things and artists, as co-signers, in response to being paid well to do so. They did that, and they actively tried to eliminate artists from the game that could dethrone them from those positions of influence. It became more about having the most money than about the art. That the way rap is right now isn’t happenstance.
It actually reminds me of a few years ago where, wherever people were asking who’s the next up or who’s dope. Artist that know what it means to be an artist and have talent. Kept saying lil baby, and i used to be like huh? I know the kids like him but from this artists perspective, there’s no way that they should be saying lil baby.

Haven't checked out anything Comm's put out in a while... Especially recent albums probably the last decade
When he had Ye and Dion on the boards ... fire ... Even the albums with the Neptunes were equally good
That union between NaS and HITBOY looking like a masterstroke as regards HipHop vets and artistic reinvention
