Soundcloud rap was the grunge of rap, but all the guys died or went to prison, also covid ruined its momentum.
Drake vs kendrick was like the grand finalie of rap, if that didnt happen the 2020s would have been rap free.

I have a personal theory that each genre gets about 50 years in the mainstream then dies. and rap turned 50 a few years ago.


right now rap is on zombie mode, not realizing its dead yet. kind of like rock in the 2000s
>>
The Kendrick/ Drake feud really felt like the nail in the coffin. Completely manufactured to impress normies and lacking any real consequences. Not to mention most new stuff is very stylistically derivative of either chopped soul instrumentals or rage/Carti blown-out rock crossover. Add in the general American’s fatigue of hood shenanigans and I doubt rap ever regains its former cultural relevance.
>>
>>128272864
rap had a good 30 years in the mainstream, even the 2010s when poptimism came to play and critics were overglazing rap and mainstream music got wittled down to pop and pop rap.

I just thought rock would make a come back if rap died. but they just monkey pawed me and only pop, kpop, and fucking country music is mainstream.

Music is pretty boring without rock or rap

>>128273542
You are stuck in 2010. This specific sort of pop (not necessarily Korean of Jap made) is literally filling the meme top lists. I don't condone it, but it does have a large reach.
Whether it is forced or not I leave up to you (after all rap was 100% pushed by vous-savez-qui long before it tired the mass audience) but it is the current meme.

white rap sucks because the purpose of rap is to antagonise and instigate society. ytbois always play it too safe, writing lyrics like they would for a boyband. corny as fuck.

But I agree with the point that this specific type of trolling is exclusive to rap. It probably came from the statement of Jerry Garcia, and the trolls just started to repeat it no stop, without actually leading a discussion where they justified their point or responded to the counterarguments. It doesn't mean that other types of unfair trolling are not done in other genres and people don't have to insist on replying to these respective trolls.
