Do hip-hop fans look down on people who only bump the classics of the late 80s - early 00s in the same way rock fans look down on people who only listen to rock from the late 60s - early 80s?
Do hip-hop fans look down on people who only bump the classics of the late 80s - early 00s in the same way rock fans...

littlle bit
Dominic Nelson
of course
funky beats > tryhard gangster shit
Benjamin Phillips
Considering the only thing I see mentioned around Sup Forums that is related to modern hip-hop is shitty memerap acts like Kendrick, I doubt their opinions are really worth shit.
James Evans
only really in the last 5 years or so, predictable really, kids growing up and want to seem xD cool and unique1!!1!!11!1! so they disrespect the classics
Luis Jenkins
Yes cause they are viewed as tryhard close minded fags
Jace Nguyen
No
there is a genre that mixes old school hip-hop tracks adapting them to current tempo of low-fi trap and vaportrap using bass and hi-hats.
It's called phonk, unfortunately all fags of /mu care only for overhyped shit like grimes, kpop and old crappy faded in obscurity rock . I haven't seen any phonk general yet in this stupid board.

>classics of the late 80s - early 00s
That's cool, but middle 80's hip-hop is garbage.
Connor Cruz
It's not really disrespecting the classics, just people who worship the classics.

can you link me some? sounds interesting

all of them have their own unique mix phonk spectrum
Leo Rogers
Eh. I prefer plonk to be quite honest.
Eli Wood
Lucas Adams
not a fan to be honest
funky old school beats clash horribly with the emphasised bass. i'm sure it's possible to create some cool stuff but why make it so much harder on yourself
Hunter Cruz
yes but new hip hop fans listen to uzi, migos, and that xxx faggot so i couldn't care less what those coons and wiggers think
Matthew Clark
I prefer pronk
Jack Ortiz
Oh no its another "reel hip hop" man...
Colton Ward
I definitely do. I call them tryhards and "backpackers" and tell them to go listen to Common.
I don't have a lot of tolerance for people who believe in cultural degeneracy. What's really happening is that with age, things that used to be dangerous become safe and accepted. People who can only listen to safe and accepted rap really get on my nerves. Grow a fucking pair.
John Bailey
>funky old school beats
yeah, that's why old beats are rare, they mostly mix current hip-hop, though you can listen to some old school stuff like biggie.

They call them dustheads

what's wrong with calling it out for being shit?
The moment you take the melody out of a genre, the lyrics are all you really have left. If your lyrics are shit and there's nothing clever about them, what is the problem in calling it out?
Mason Jackson
thank you ill listen later
Hunter Carter
Not really phonk is just a re-purposing of Memphis rap by newer producer, most of whom are talentless and over-sample the hiphop they're attempting to "homage".
SGP started it with his Raider Klan group. They're have been groups who used the style, but it was highly popularized by the kids out in Miami.
Robert Mitchell
>this
if the rap ain't about selling drugs or killing people, I don't wanna listen to it
Brandon Murphy
I've posted a playlist that includes some of their mixes here but soundcloud more variety.
Kayden Watson
is this an internet "movement" like witchhouse or vaporwave or is it something real and legit?
Lincoln Morales
the point is not giving some of the new artist a chance because its not "real hip hop" or whatever.
there are still some good modern rappers out there and its silly to let the slide under you radar just because they arent from the golden era.
Grayson Adams
It is growing through soundcloud so you may call it internet movement that includes some elements of vaporwave but it's quite unique and personal.
Adrian Cox
yes.
because it's literally the same mentality as people who only listen to their dads collection of led zeppelin and pink floyd. music progresses, and there's nothing wrong with enjoying and appreciate classics, but god damn, I can't imagine listening to bare bones production from the 90s exclusively.
Dylan Reed
There's no real shame in this. It's been really difficult to take the hip-hop community seriously ever since the release of MBDTF. That release and the subsequent reaction single-handedly destroyed any notion that the average hip-hop listener is in anyway discerning, cultured or has even the most basic understanding of music as an art form. The hip-hop community past the mid-00s is a blind hype dick thrusting into space, occasionally striking gold (Kendrick) but generally little more than an oblivious embarrassment to anyone with a sense of taste.
Anthony Martin
modern hip hop is so fucking pleb if you defend it you are a monkey or a wigger
Blake Hernandez
how's middle school going?

hip hop production has regressed from the 90s if anything. lost the strong sense of rhythm that emphasised rapping and its lyrical content. the genre is stale as fuck now
Xavier Butler
I don't know i they look down on them.. but they'll probably just assume they're young. The difference, in my opinion, is that even after the 70's there were great underground rock bands, while in hip-hop there were a few good artists (MF Doom, El-P, Dalek) that came after the 2000's, but none that completely revolutionized anything.
Easton Barnes
>El-P
>good
Ryder Bennett
Not as much as a rapper.. but his production on the Cold Vein and Hell's Winter is great.. I don't think anyone can deny that
Christopher Long
nah hiphop is continuing to progress. We're seeing more experimental shit than ever.
However I'd definitely concede that the mainstream has fell hard since MBDTF, only being picked up by Kendrick
Connor Rivera
this album is actually worse than you're saying. it signals the beginning of the end for western civilisation - white people will be extinct in the next 2-3 decades and we'll deserve it for allowing shit like this to happen
