I watched this the other day and I struggled because I dont like rap opinions from young whites.

basically they said its too much rap music coming out each week

A lot of options, and time is valuable so I just won't be listening to disect as much stuff now. Also for me, I have actual memories and feelings associated with songs/albums that came out back in the day so that's why I listen to older stuff before giving new stuff a try. In the last 2 years, I have only listened to Mr Morale and Kings Disease whole album more than 3 times.

I feel that, but once I got passed that I agree with alot of what they was saying

 

[silverfoxx]

I think it's too much of business interfering with art now. That's why even songs that's considered trash from a lyrical standpoint like Playboy Carti While Lotta Red I respected just because it wasnt afraid to do something different or unique in this climate.

I'm hoping more lyrical rappers continue to try to push the envelope to help shape and grow hip hop so we can break free from this transactional quick tik tok streaming style of music.

^this. is why I understand this.....

Yeah there's probably a lil more stuff being released now, but it wasn't like 20+ years ago we were only getting 3 albums a month or something.

There was still a bunch of albums being released and mixtapes too. The big difference between then and now is accessibility.

Albums don't last now cuz they're trash. Simple..............

Too much music every week

Artists these days for the most part are using rap as a springboard in addition only using it as a means of money rather than an outlet for art or expression

Too many rappers out

Albums aren’t condensed enough to match the attention span of today

 

[shutupGabi]

Without watching, 99% of artists are forgettable that's why majority of their music is forgettable. Of albums I listened to that came out within the past 3 months, there's only 2 that are still in my rotation.

We’re in the fast food era. Where music is easily accessible and once you play it you’re ready for the next thing.

Need more gatekeeping

Not enough rappers work at UPS

 

[Big_Ev]

That's why I very picky on what music I buy. For the whole year so far, I only brought 3 projects and those are the ones I still play today for the most part.

[Elzo69Renaissance]

The too much music argument is stupid…. Niggas just suck at making music

[Sony Montana]

too late

Luckily the police are helping keep the numbers down

but somebody buyin if they're able to make a livin right?


so are the folks supportin to blame?


but who are you to tell someone what they should like?



point is yall mf ain't even listenin to 99% of the albums that are dropped so this dumb shit is moot

 

[BDBIID]

No artist development anymore as well.

A problem in hip hop & rnb currently. Probably even more so the latter.

Lot of the actual talented cats are lost in the wind and stagnant

 

[BRIAN B.]

mf really in here like

"there's so much music, this album I wasn't gonna listen to anyways is preventing me from listening to another album I wasn't gonna listen to either"
