Dark times are up ahead boys

when Flockaveli dropped nearly a decade ago

Nice pun.

It's kind of surprising that kids in almost 2020 are still listening to rap, but if hip hop has become really the absolute most popular genre in the US now, then it means the next generation won't care about it, because it will be the music their parents listen to, thus it's not "cool".
So, enjoy the last decade of hip hop, I guess. I honestly don't think its popularity will last more than 2025 though.

It won't last much tho, latino music and reggaeton are already beginning to appear in most popular charts, it's the new wave and artists like drake and rihanna are already heading in that direction

its called dancehall.

White kids have their parents listening to rock, but they themselves still listen to rock albeit somewhat different from dadrock(and with bands like Whitney, straight up dadrock) so don't count on that

It doesn't matter. Good genres develop under pressure.

it'll be dead by 2030
