I'm not a big rap fan, never have been, but as far as 2000 and later, I've enjoyed Aesop Rock, El-P and Cannibal Ox. I'm not much for mainstream in any genre of music, it's so watered down and homogenized.

Rap will soon be 100 years old.
The voice has been around a long long time.

modern rap is a joke its far too soft to many bitch songs too, ya know what kinda gangster is into chick songs lil wayne is exceptionally bad and who the hell believes that 80 pound dude is a gangster.

nothing still beats eazy-e, 2-pac, Notorious BIG, Big Pun, Shyne, old DMX and some of Jay-Z's old shit, etc..

But the Game and 50 cent have some good shit but mostly there older shit when they first started out but now they have too many teeny bopping bitch songs I hate, if I want a bitch song I'll listen to Usher or R Kelly.lol, :bigjoint:

Idk how many people on here even listen to rap let alone r up to date on it, but if yu haven't heard modern day rappers yu aren't missin much. I cud go on nd on wit a list of rappers who I can't stand. Wen I say this I don't jus mean my personal preference in songs, but literally hav no talent at all. I wud be here all day namin horrible rappers but id rather tak a min to name tha few rappers who have came up over the last few years who actually r good. This based on talent, I feel there's 3 things that mak a rapper talented. 1 is the content of the verse, does wat they r sayin mean anything. 2 lyrics, can they mak good and original rhymes, and 3 flow/delivery.

The only rappers of the last few years with any talent are as followed:
Kendrick lamar- fits all 3 of the above, but above he has content in his music and has points to make
J.cole- similar to kendrick, actually speaks about real life shit and has meaning behind some of his songs
Others- I do like kid ink alot, although he isn't an extremely talented rapper he has a nice, smooth flow over a relaxed tempo'd track and I find it too be good chiefin music lol. Being from pittsburgh I listened to wiz khalifas music since he was jus 16 but not that he's actually made it and is becoming more famous he is becoming worse and worse of a rapper. I thumbs his music down on panora. There is a few other artist I don't mind listening too, Lik big sean but none are favored in any way.

Personally I wud rather listen to some eazy e, some Nate dogg, lil bit of tupac or biggies always good. Bone thugs n harmony r my favorite.

Basically to wrap it up MOST of modern rap sucks, they can't rap and promote nothin positive in there lyrics. I would rather listen to the 90s rap scene then today's, what are your guys thoughts?

I'm nostalgic for the music that I listened to during important developmental periods in my life. Nothing can, or will, ever compare to that time period.

- My dad, my grandpa, my uncle, my neighbor, my friend, my cousins, my coworkers, and riu members. All in reference to different genres and different time periods.
