Crap hip-hop

Lex Luger and Waka are both g's. Time to update your backpacker tastes, brodely.

"in the trap . with some hood n99as
where u at, wheres yo trap, u aint hood, n99a!"


That is not rap
thats mental retardation
allow rhyming a word with the same word, in over half your bars.

^One line flows are way more common in grime than hip hop, but yeah I'll "allow" it darg.

[Today]

i hear a lot in grime where the MC is showing off how many different meanings they can pull frm a bit of slang. Hood ni99as means the same thing in both lines. its nothing but idiot i-can't-rap talk.

[muntz]

No but you're seriously looking in all the wrong places if you're think you'll find some deep, introspective lyrics in trap music. That style is more or less the backlash against the overly pretentious 90's-esque backpacker rap seemingly just now getting more popular in the UK... about 10 years too late.

Shady crew spoiled me
i dun care if its deep -- just good potent shit, Yelawolf mercs trap beats and he isn't deep
i just like something worthy of making a record. people like waka and gucci just have no place in front of a microphone imo

i don't think they've thought it through enough to be a backlash against anything, i think they just kind of do it and laugh about how much its paying so then they do it some more

[JBoy]

Real hip-hop.


Crap hip-hop

The guy in the second video sounds like another 50 cent wannabe.

You just completely invalidated your point by referencing Yelawolf. He is a neck from Alabama who raps about meth labs in his trunk. That's just fucking embarassing on multiple levels. Sigh

no

[Today]

i said i don't care what its about i just care about skills. He raps WELL about meth labs in his trunk
his flow is insane and his lyrics rhyme, yet aren't the same word spoken again with the same meaning line after line

Wakas flow is basic and his lyrics don't exist. Its not the same thing, they're very different artists
im just talking about what i don't like in doofus trap music

you can be an idiot hick meth addict cousin-fucker with no teeth and a big gulp full of moonshine in your pickup truck's cup holder
but if you can rap you can rap, period

and lol @ referring to wu-tang as backpacker taste hahaha

what happened to hip hop thats just good... it doesn't have to try to be intellectual political hipster backpack college rap ... and it also doesn't need to be a dude with dreads drooling on a microphone (plus adlibs).

[muntz]

I guess instead of 'backpack', we can just call it 'late' now. Obviously Wu Tang is great (there is no denying that), but a lot has happened since 1995 ffs.

We will just have to agree to disagree about Yelawolf/Waka/Gucci.

Err, intellectual political hip hop has been around explicitly since at least Public Enemy. I agree though, thinking's overrated. Guns, bitches, bling and getting crunk in the club is what hip hop has always been about.

Not true. Originally, at least from the MC's perspective. Hip hop was about a DJ finding the best MC so they could hype up the DJ better, and that's where the hiphop mc comes from.

allow the incorrect usage of allow

[Today]

there's a correct use!?

rap's been about a lot of things .. i like it all as long as the flow and rhymes are good
intellectual, deep, stupid, violent, romantic. i don't care
i just hate shitty performances on records

[Today]

[muntz]
