Am I the only Millennial that thinks that all the rap music the kids listen to nowadays is complete garbage? (At least here in America. I don't know about from other countries.) It's literally the same song over and over, with the same PCM Samples, and only different lyrics that you can barely understand. If your going to have lyrics you can barely understand, make up for it with better samples, different tempo and everything that's not what it is currently. Why don't kids nowadays know what's good and what's retarded? When exactly did all this new crap start anyway? 5 years ago?
>boomer Baby Boomer? Hell no. I was born in 2001. You just don't know what's good.
Colton Parker
Well, that was quick.
Asher White
>2001 you're not a millennial.
Logan Lopez
You're a fucking zoomer
Ryder Clark
All billboard hoping music for the last 15 years has been the same repetitive bullshit. There's absolutely no talent in the mainstream music industry.
Jason Phillips
Rap is for niggers and coal burners.
> write a sentance > pay jarome to copy/paste the same drum loop he's been using for 5 years > mumble sentence 30 times into mic while you're high on downers > say "yeah nigga" a few times > gunshots.wav > yeah nigga
Jason Rogers
Yeah man, this new mumble rap shit is actually awful. No musical complexity, always taking about idk, fame or niggers on drugs. It's just absolute garbage.
John Bailey
You're a zoomer >Also if you can't appreciate or at least see why someone would likelil uzi or kendrick you probably have autism
Samuel Powell
It hasn't been good since the early 90's when the record labels figured out they could market it to suburban white kids for a profit. M.C. hammer and vanilla ice pretty much killed it. There is some good underground stuff, but you have to go out and hunt it down. Now rap is mostly "look at all the shit I have, I'm a consumer white, you should be a consumer whore like me and buy stuff too." Selling a lifestyle no regular could obtain, but damned if they won't drive themselves into debt to do it.
Austin Perez
>nowadays Aside from a few very rare instances rap and hip hop have always been garbage. It's nigger bullshit; all "muh dik" and "listen to how fucking amazing I feel I am me me meeeeee look at meeeeeeeeeeeee" faggotry. Always has been. Always will be. It's just niggerdom facilitated by jewgoblins
Liam Hall
Smh all that mumble rap is pure trash, I hope they all end up like XXXtension and Lil Peep.
Christopher Miller
I don't listen to them, I don't know the difference. All I know is that whenever some kid is listening to music, it's always the same crap.
Daniel Barnes
This post shows you know nothing about rap.
You probably listened to like 5 popular mumble rap songs and were like "yep, thats it."
Ther is hundrets of subgenres that are all different from each other.
And there is so many good rappers and rap songs.
I can't understand how someone can judge an entire genre based on a shitty sub- genre
Kendrick couldn't write good lyrics if his life depended on it. Admit it you like shitty music
Cooper Turner
Shut the fuck up nigger
Isaiah Peterson
Rap is about nigger culture, it'll never be good.
Bentley Torres
rap isn't music.
>10000 yrs ago, they beat on logs and chanted. now some joo pays for a drum machine and they chant while its algorithm spits out a beat that will get 70+% approval based on the Facebook data miners.
People care about everything other than the music rappers put out nowadays. I only listen to old songs Memphis rap, dj screw, Tupac, warren g, south side rappers.
Kevin Ward
Zoomer starts post 9/11 so if you were born before the towers fell you're a millennial, if you were born after you're a zoomer.
Easton Hill
6ix9ine was a lyrical genius. I don't give a fuck what any of you fags say.
Cameron Price
In all honesty, I don't think it can all be bad. I didn't base my opinion on a couple songs. Every person I've heard listening to rap listens to the same crap I described. Still I don't know how anything like that can be popular.
What rappers do you like?
Aiden Wright
Us millennials do not claim 2000 or later babies, sorry faggot you're a zoomer
Jaxson Richardson
I was born in May of 2001.
Carter Flores
My ass hole is a lyrical genius.I don't give a fuck what any of you fags say.
Eli Diaz
Congrats you are not millennial faggy zoomer
Anthony Allen
That's not how that works. The definitions are set in stone.
Evan Martin
So are you in any way musically inclined? Because you sound like an idiot. Not that I disagree with the statements about mainstream rap being bad, that is.
Zachary Cooper
Try Lil Uzi Vert best "sound cloud rapper" Or Kendrick, Denzel Cury
I really like Edgar the Beatmaker (aka King Krule. Maybe you know him?), Mac Miller, KAAN (Listen to Kaancepts 1, its really impressive), Nujabes, Masta ace, Tyler the creator, Tierra Whack, Little Simz, Kate Tempest and a whole lot more.
The most popular music (at the moment) is music you can easily listen to, thats not complex and doesnt have any meaning. Background music basically.
What do you listen to?
Sebastian King
ghetto culture is shit, who would have thunk?
Jason Miller
You just happened to witness rap going over from niche to mainstream. As soon as it got mainstream it is milked like a cow. You know like in modern pop music 80% of songs are written by a single person, similar development we can see within rap.
This happened to Rock'n'Roll and all the other genres that got from niche too mainstream. This is just how the music industry works. Once they found out a formula, they are going to milk it until something more prosperous comes along
I do. I'm 34 and I can't fathom the spectrum of shit that our ears are afflicted with. My niece was listening to that xxxtentacion joke, and it was utter shit. It was unintelligible at best. At least 50Cent had some sweet beats and could flow.
Jason Richardson
I don't really listen to rap, but I like the older kind of rap better. I just mostly listen to stuff like classic rock, the stuff your parents listen too probably. I don't know how to describe all of it.
Good old country music and both this bullshit pop country on the radio. The good stuff like George Strait, Alan Jackson, Hank Williams Jr, Willie Nelson, Reba, Chris Ledoux
Colton Flores
No no genuinely hate Mac Miller and what he did to Ari, fuck that selfish bastatd. I truly hope he is rotting in hell
Nope. It's garbage. Hell, even listening to 90s and 2000s rap, I'm disappointed how often they had to "sample" (steal) from other songs and shout out "yeah" over it.
Gabriel Gomez
>rap isn't music. And blacks aren't people. Glad we can come to an agreement.
Justin Hill
>nowadays All rap/hiphop was always nigger-tier garbage pushed down people's throats to become mainstream. It's all nigger-monkey jungle noises.
Jaxson Gutierrez
I was better when it was newer. You just have to learn how to not be a hateful person. Who cares if your father was mean to you anyway.
Bentley Miller
>It was better I meant.
Anthony Wilson
No, it was never good. If you like that "music" genre your opinion on music is irrelevant, considering your shit taste.
Dominic Rodriguez
I only listen to European rappers. White people do it better.
William Robinson
You shouldn't let your father make you who you are. Make your own life. Just don't keep it where you are now.
Jacob Murphy
Nah, just Americans in general make music worse. They have a shit system for how the radio stations rate their music. It's on a nationwide scale, and then averaged. It started in the 90's. The music industry is shit in the US. How anyone likes the shit they play now, I will never know.
Grayson Edwards
Imagine trying to analyse some user's life based on two posts he had made that are irrelevant to his life. Absolute and utter retard.
I forgot to mention here a lot of DJs lost their jobs because they didn't want to play what they told them to. There's almost no good stations anymore.
Xavier White
Trouble at home too?
No one is hateful like that for no reason. And it's almost always for the same reason. And it's damn obvious.
Ian Hall
Oh please do share your knowledge with us mere mortals. I can't wait to hear what some 18yo has to say about life and how human mind works. You know nothing, how am I hateful? Because I don't like the same things you like?
Jeremiah Gomez
Just don't be an ass, and BAM! That's what makes you not hateful.
Or just ignore them.
But at the end of the day, we can all agree that everything the younger generations do nowadays is retarded. (see image)
Same reason your grandparents hate the music you listened to, disliking the younger generations music is all you have left as you come closer and closer to death
Jeremiah Howard
Dunno wut to tell ya, OP. I'm a based Zoomer & just turned 18 a few weeks back (fuck you mods, I was an underage b& lurking Yea Forums) - No one in our high school listens to rap except a few retarded trailer trash wiggers. For most part, everyone listens to Nirvana, Pink Floyd, Tool, Billy Ellish, Pearl Jam, etc. What do you middle age Millenials see in nigger music anyway? It all sounds like autistic 4 years olds cursing to samples.
Lucas Myers
THIS. No one except niggers and meth addict poor white folks listens to rap now days.
Lincoln James
>
Noah Phillips
I am confirmed meth addict and rap is awsome
Camden Morris
I am the younger generation. I just don't let myself get to this point.
I'm black and even I think rap music is shit. I usually listen to Sabaton and Avenged Sevenfold.
Aaron Wood
Enjoy never getting pussy.
Connor Adams
I'll say that all generations starting from baby boomers onwards have been abysmal. Zoomers aren't any better or worse than millenials or gen x. They're all degenerate.
Logan Hernandez
>2019 >Listening to Rap
OP's either a confirmed incel, an illiterate unemployed nigger, or a 39 y.o. Boomer trying to look "cool" to a 19 yo girl that legit finds him creepy.
Cooper Phillips
>everyone listens to Nirvana, Pink Floyd, Tool, Billy Ellish, Pearl Jam, One of these things is not like the other...
Oliver Bell
Wow, OP. This is the cringiest thread I've seen on Yea Forums all day. Major accomplishment. No one publicly admits to listening to shit tier rap "music". Hell, even black people are too ashamed to admit they listen to that shit in 2019.
Jace Myers
What is with everyone's disagreement on what Millennials are, It's the generation from the mid 90's to the early 2000's. Isn't that why it's named after millennium?
And I'm 18 too. I was born in May of 2001. I'm not sure how many people listened to it at my high school, but it was definitely quite a few. My brother listens garbage rap. he was born on 2004. But that's kinda hard to believe based on how he acts. He acts like he's 12. He literally just entered high school.
Anyway, my friends usually listen to the stuff like you mentioned.
Sebastian Ramirez
> culture kek
Gavin Ramirez
>It's the generation from the mid 90's to the early 2000's You're off by a bit. Go and Google millennial, then get back to us.
Michael Reed
Honestly I believe this too. Ever since WW2 we've been on a decline.
Luke Campbell
He was naming off everything. Not just one genre.
Daniel Morris
Right but one of those isn't even music
Ryder Price
It's giving me a bunch of different definitions.
Some say early 80's to mid 90's, others say late 90's to like 2004.
I guess nothing's definitive. The way I've known it is about from 1997 to 2003
Wyatt Garcia
Well I haven't heard of Tool or Billy Ellish, so I don't know what the hell they are.
Jose King
>an entire generation >5 years
Ethan Davis
Tool's a progressive hard rock / metal band & billy ellish is an alternative rock / electropop singer. pretty much 2 of the biggest musical acts around at the moment.
Jaxon Murphy
Isn't it just talking about birth year? That seems like a pretty distinctive time period.
Now that I think about it, I'd have to say 1994 or 5 to 2003 is more accurate for that time period.
Samuel Peterson
that, and tools been around since like the 1990's so them having major chart topping hits songs right now is pretty surprising for a band that's been around almost 3 decades.
Hudson Morris
The problem is with American rap, the lyrics are always about niggers nigging, here in the balkans we have rap about who is gonna exterminate who
yeah, watching all the freshman taylor swift stans crying at school this week cause an actual talented band knocked swifts new album off the top 10 albums this week was hysterical. tools new shit is really fuckin good and so much needed in the current music scene.
Jeremiah Garcia
I never even heard of them. I mean maybe I've heard the name Billy Ellish.
Where do these people come from? It's just like when you see on the news (yahoo homepage type deal) about some rapper no one's ever heard of being killed, and people ask me "Did you know Weird Ass Name just died?" I swear artists just appear out of nowhere.
Joseph Hughes
Tool ARMY! Srsly tho yeah fear inoculum is the best album this year. Tool came out swinging an landed a KO. Love every song on it. And that the songhs are 10 minutes and still getting radio play is freaky.
Evan Baker
based BS
Brayden Cooper
Nigger music is fucking trash and anyone who likes it is either a nigger ape or a fucking nigger loving white trash piece of shit.
best part is that tool's got 2 songs in the top 20 charts right now. first time a rock bands done that in over 3 decades from what news is saying.
Oliver Bailey
It’s not even that good though. I mean it’s better than most of the garbage that’s been topping the charts in recent years but yeah
Ethan Ortiz
>I never even heard of them >30 year old band >world wide fame >just dropped a new album that radio stations won't shut up about >never even heard of them
Wrong. It's the mid 80s to the late 90s. Everyone after that is a zoomer.
Henry Perez
ITT people who don't know shit about music argue about music
That would be like me arguing about sports or athletes.
Gavin Morgan
Popular music in general is stagnating because you've got the same three or four guys writing EVERYTHING.
Chase Reyes
Shut up, go watch melon boy be a pop apologist
Ian Price
Then why did they decide to call them Millennials. I thought it was just talking about the birth year.
Joseph Morris
There's no good radio stations where I live. And I live in frikkin Chicago. there's a shit ton of people here. The only radio stations we have are a few stations that play stuff from before 30 years ago and the rest is just that retarded music kids listen to, but no one else likes.
Why can't we just have radio stations that play new and old good shit anymore?
Isaac Moore
...
Carter Price
I forgot to mention here there is a station that plays old rap music and stuff, the good shit. But I just don't really listen to that kind of music.
Asher Jenkins
Speaking of being a millennial, So i recognise I feel entitled to everything despite being worthy of nothing, but what do you do if knowing that doesn't fix you? I still don't want to work, but now i'm alternating between the feasibility of suicide and unsustainably gambling away on the lottery out of escapism.
Evan Campbell
>Wah I was born in the wrong generation. I remember when you faggots just stayed in the YouTube comments section.
Angel Roberts
That's not how I am. And why feel entitled for anything without putting forward any work? You need to work for things.
Camden Perry
No, you are not. Born in '89, eastern Europe, hip-hop head here (lately i am listening to more stuff besides hiphop like jazz, blues, punk, metal, triphop/chill/nujazz, and a ton of classical). I think that trap or whatever it is called is absolutely retarded. It doesn't have anything to do with hip hop, no message, no musicality, nothing. Complete garbage. There is still a lot of good hiphop to listen to.
Brandon Evans
>You need to work for things. Wow yep. NOW it makes sense. Not like i didn't just say that I'm all fixed now. thanks.
John Anderson
Lmaooo, no. Fuck off zoomer. I graduated high school right as the economy collapsed in 2008, then joined the army and served in iraq. You weren't even old enough to wipe your own ass when the towers fell or when we fucked up Iraq. 21st infantry, 11C operation Iraqi freedom bitch, we FUCKED THOSE TOWEL HEADS UP CUNT
Grayson Morgan
That's not what I was saying, idiot. I was asking if anyone else thinks it's garbage.
And I remember when all of you people stayed in your mom's basement without youtube. The comments section was much better then. That was damn near 10 years ago. Back when you can actually customize your channel. But you wouldn't remember that now, would you. You were only a sperm back then.
Please tell me this is bait This opinion isn't new at all Not all rap is mindless trash btw I wish my neighbors like good stuff though :(
Oliver Allen
Of course it is. Everyone same knows that. It's just that stuff is made "just to pass" nowadays Europe follows US trends, and the rest of the world.
Andrew Anderson
I also like music written by rapists
Aaron Wood
i believe the frequencies are put in (Rhythems are made) to fuck with our minds and dumb us down
Landon Gutierrez
Billy Eilish is a nigger loving whore
Ethan Baker
Everyone I've seen who listens to rap listens to the same shit I described. Ironically, I've only seen white people listening to it, if I'm not mistaken. There's not a ton of black people where I live anyway.
Jackson Russell
Europe needs to stop following US trends. Everything here is shit.
