never said 90's rap sucked, just said that present day rap is generally better, so why would citing one somewhat throwback-sounding album (which sounds more early 00's than 80's/90's) out of six be hilarious? |
SharkTooth
12.08.14 | because Pinata is mediocre |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
12.08.14 | "never said 90's rap sucked, just said that present day rap is generally better,"
if you actually think that then you are stupider than you sound (which is pretty stupid right now) |
SharkTooth
12.08.14 | "because Pinata is mediocre"
and by mediocre I mean the rapping on it sucks |
chinesewhispers
12.08.14 | I thought you were referring to the fact that a lot of people (wrongly) think it sounds 90's. my bad there
how the hell is it stupid? hip hop production has improved exponentially, artists are experimenting more than ever before, thus the genre is becoming more and more diverse. we're not just talking about the radio here. also, "stupider"? come on, now... |
naeganaega
12.08.14 | many of those I've heard already but I found lot of new rappers such as sole,madvillain and heltah skeltah also freddie grips and I haven't listened to masta ace or boogie down for ages so thanks. |
naeganaega
12.08.14 | tbh new school rap is underrated sometimes. Yeah the mainstream hiphop can be really shitty at times but 90's did have mc hammer and vanilla ice....

check out Ellay Khule - Holy Scriptures. Hes an undeground veteran from LA. Search "Holy Scriptures" on spotify (or itunes) and it comes up under "various artists.

because variety does not mean the same thing as quality. And production? Dude The Chronic's production is every bit as good these days as it was back in '93 |
chinesewhispers
12.08.14 | experimentation=originality which often leads to quality, to me at least. idk all my favorite hip hop albums production-wise are from the past 10 years, just seems so much more advanced these days |

chinesewhispers
12.08.14 | ugh I never said experimentation directly makes things better, I said it turns into "originality which can often lead to quality, to me at least"
please explain how experimentation in hip hop was as commonplace in the 80's as it is now. hell, wasn't Funcrusher Plus considered experimental in '97? |
Titan
12.08.14 | 'please explain how experimentation in hip hop was as commonplace in the 80's as it is now. hell, wasn't Funcrusher Plus considered experimental in '97?'
are you kidding? the whole damn movement was an experiment in the 80's |
chinesewhispers
12.08.14 | @Titan appreciate you being chill about it at least, forreal
I'm not hating on 90's rap at all, I love it, I just prefer modern and apparently people around here don't take kindly to that |
chinesewhispers
12.08.14 | maybe I'm just wording things wrong..."fresh" 30 years ago just isn't "fresh" to me now. I just feel like it's moving to more interesting places |

12.09.14 | dont see how hip hop is moving to more interesting places when new mainstream hip hop is largely just
a makeshift corporate imitation/parody of what hip hop once was. Couldn't care less if the production
is improving, there is no soul in today's popular hip hop. |

12.09.14 | "I just feel like it's moving to more interesting places"
again, fresher=/=better
recent hip-hop has been great, but there is no goddamn way that albums like Pinata and Run the Jewels 2 are evidence of the genre's improvement. Yeah you got some cool production with technological innovation, but hip-hop is not about pretty beats. |
LambsBread
12.15.14 | Yeah RED album is way better than RTJ or Pinata
i dont dislike lloyd banks really, Game is way better though and his lloyd banks disses were hilarious
nigga you sound like Oscar the Grouch |
Hurricanslash
12.15.14 | Welcome to a typical hip-hop thread on Sputnik. A few on here are actually discussing interesting things, but otherwise we again have the standard "My taste is better than yours, fuck you all". But then again, this is not Sputnik exclusive. Yay.
But forreal though, Game killed Banks so hard man. Also, can we just come to the conclusion that dope shit is in every decade, it just depends on how much you have to search?
