Will there ever be a time period as productive and revolutionary in music as these five years?
During this time, you very quickly went from rock music being seen as bubblegum fluff for teens, to rock being seen as an art form.
Remember that in the early 60's music was recorded by stuffy old men wearing white labcoats, and had no idea what Ornette, Trane, or even The Beatles were heading. They were completely at a loss to know what was going to succeeed or not. Around 65-67, most of these old geezers were sent to the label offices to fill some accountant job, in order to let new guys in and especially let the musician really get full creative control.

These are really the only major innovations in hip-hop

It's sad that rock music peaked so early on in its history. Everything since the early 70s has just been copying what came before. Not that there hasn't been lots of good music but nothing truly original.
Cameron Torres
yeah.. internet music happened and the rap game started its renaissance.
Levi Fisher
don't forget pop rap , experimental rap and alt rnb
Brandon Walker
90s jungle music evolved from cookie-cutter rave fodder to ambient/jazz-fusion to electro-acoustic experimentation within the span of 5 to 10 years.
Tyler Cook
1977-1981 was better and more important.

most ignorant post I've read on Sup Forums this week. congrats mate

Regardless of what you think about DG, what they brought to the table cannot be denied.
Gavin Ross
Well obviously rock music seemed original at the time; it was still new. That's not to say that those original rock bands from the '60s didn't get their inspiration from folk or blues or jazz or r&b. Nothing is truly original.
Jack Watson
That's high honor around here, boy but at least as far as rock music goes, you know it's true. Everything that could be done in rock, had been done by 1972
WRONG
Juan Bennett
What is trap, honestly?
Pls no bully I just have no idea what sets it apart from any other rap. Is it a feel? Is it instrumentation? I've never heard any rap that makes me think "wow this is a new sound" except for maybe the large influx of tropical rhythms and the emphasis on autotuned singing.
All I know about trap is that sample packs often have "trap snares". That's all I know.
Easton Miller
you could watch vice/noiseys mini documentary about it
>alt rnb I wouldn't exactly consider this rap >pop rap Pop rap started when producers made '90s-era rap more club friendly. Nothing really groundbreaking about that.
I agree that Death Grips are innovative, but they haven't really had much of an impact on rap as a whole. They're still a more recent band, so their influence will probably be more apparent with time.

You left out Rakim introducing the idea of a flow, the Bomb Squad introducing multiple samples from disparate genres into the same song, turntablism, the shift from samples to synthesizers, G-Funk, boom-bap, featured rappers, the Wu-Tang Clan's group/individual performer business approach, abstract hip-hop, incorporating flows and ideas from Jamaican dancehall deejays, etc. etc. etc.

Kill yourself.

Ryan Jenkins
its like you never listened to 90s music, a decade that wasn't defined by one genre like yours
Kevin Williams
All shit except no wave
Dylan Davis
>no dance music >electronic was just abstract and "experimental" pieces >rock music about riffs and machism and not texture and atmosphere
Isaiah Howard
it isn't about what's good, it's about what hadn't been done in 1972. Also you have bad taste.
Adam Stewart
Just because they did it after 1972 doesn't make it should be treated as a good thing when its all shit. Except no wave.
Ryder Nguyen
again, you have bad taste in music if you think all of that is bad
