what age did you grow out of hip-hop? 20 for me
16
18 for me
16
i grew out of metal around the same time. awful, mundane genres.
I never grew into it, same goes for The Smiths.
>>62058069
17 or 18
I'm a weak man.
When I was a kid, I listened to Eminem and Kanye West. Snapped out of it, but when I ws 16 I started listening to a shitload of diffrent rap music. I've had few breaks after this, but I always return. God forgive me, because I can't forgive myself.
>>62058087
what kind of metal i.e. artists
>>62058069
when I was born white
15 but completely stopped listening to it at 18
>>62058107
You know the brutal stuff escape the fate, a day to remember, I wrestled a bear once, Attack Attack!
>>62058236
that's not metal and is not good. actual meta is god tierl i.e. neurosis, megadeth etc
Y'all better start respecting Morrissey or he's gonna kick your ass
>>62058277
lmao you just got memed on dude
>>62058277
Nuerosis? Fucking Megadeth? Alright gramps.
19
>>62058359
He's right though
But of course you need to let everyone know how brutal you are
The same age I grew out of the fucking smiths. Fucking not soon enough. Terrible band.
around 14, i still listen to the odd hip hop album though
>>62058069
13 when i learned to read and enjoy proper music
when I became a white guy
19-20 for me.

19, After listening to it practically all my life nonstop. I haven't listened to any since then.

>>62058069
I still like a few artists of the genre, but I'd say 16.
I liked it a bit when I was 16 and I stopped when I was 17.
i didnt because im not a pretentious autist who feels the need to impress other autists on the internet. plenty of great hip hop music out there
>>62058236
lmao nicely memed mr. anon! you go girl, yeah you got him. that's right. yeah
56
>Grew up out of hip hop only to regress to tumblrcore indie music
I didn't
I never liked it, but I'm starting to explore instrumental hip hop
I grew out of it at 19 but my brother who is 5 years older to me still enjoys hip-hop and pop and finds his music by listening to top-20 on garbage music channels like VH1
>>62060679
>rap
>>62058069
I grew into rap at 24.
most people have shit taste in hip-hop. it's a great genre though. plenty obscure good stuff for all you hipsters too.
>>62061316
What counts as obscure rap, anyway? Shit like Big L, Smif-n-Wessun, AZ, that everyone really into it knows but no-one else? Or the shit that barely reaches outside the area it represents?
>>62060480
/mu/ really expands your tastes if you're capable of putting up with the constant stream of shitposting. It's worth every shitpost.
>>62061353
>What counts as obscure rap, anyway?
This...........

You'd only hear stuff like this at 2 AM on weekends back in the 90's.
I grew out of hip-hop when I was 16 and grew into death grips when i was around 20
>>62058069
I've been around since before hip-hop was even a genre, back when people rapped over disco breaks.
I'll never outgrow it because it keeps evolving......

>>62058069
Still listen to hip hop but less and less
When someone makes a banger you gotta respect it but fuck most of the hip hop scene.
Fuck those 3rd eye indigo faggots
Fuck lyrical/intellectual hip hop
Fuck any rapper that advocates shit like mike brown and ferguson riots
The only hip hop i tolerate now a days is like freddie gibbs for his flow, young thug for being an artist and riff raff for being original
>>62062692

he's not gay as far as i know though :(
>>62060601
do you not realize posts like >>62058236 are always made by metalheads in denial of their treasured genre being childish? so they make those fake posts to assure other metalheads of their generalizations?
>>62062867
>The only hip hop i tolerate now a days is like freddie gibbs for his flow, young thug for being an artist and riff raff for being original
Well I think a window licker could deduce that you are a fucking mong.
I'm 22 and I really dislike hip hop except for some albums and a few artists. I like the beats and melodies more than the lyrics. I'm excited for the new kanye, drake, and schoolboy q albums and still like young thug for the most part. I feel like 2015 was a disappointing year for hip hop. Yes I know there were a ton of huge releases for big artists but I think hip hop has become repetitive and a giant meme. I was disappointed by mr wonderful, summertime 06, ds2, earl's album, drakes mixtape, good am, asap rocky's album and bang 3. everything seems so stale. wow another trap beat with drug dealing lyrics.

>Yes I know there were a ton of huge releases for big artists but I think hip hop has become repetitive and a giant meme.
That's happened during every era since the 80's. It's a glut that lasts about a year or two. It's been about 5 now, but things are looking up in the underground.....

redman, gang starr, etc are all well known but i would count them as underground too.

>mac miller - existentialist white kid does too many drugs and has minor mental illness
>asap rocky - im a hood dude who likes art look at how cultured i am
>chief keef - literally autistic
It's normal for /mu/tants to hate rap, I would hate rap too if I had discovered it /mu/. The whole board has baby-tier taste in rap, so there is basically nobody to elevate the general level and the people who try to explore the genre through /mu/ end up disappointed and they join the rap=crap bandwagon.
>mfw there are people itt who think Dalek is underground
I'm into hip-hop still, not really contemporary mainstream/buzz band shit that /mu/ enjoys. Hip-hop is still a genre with a lot of depth as far as the music goes (meaning a lot was overlooked through the decades). 90's cold cut classics mostly. The beatmaker scene is the most exciting aspect of contemporary hip-hop for me tho. Good production makes wack rappers sound nice.
>>62058069
17 i believe
>>62063918
>there are people itt who think Dalek is underground
I think you should try going outside anon, most people do not know about Dalek. If your knowledge of what others listens to is strictly from the internet (/mu/ especially), maybe you need to reevaluate things.
>>62063918
dumb weeaboo
>>62063998
>implying
most people do not know about King Crimson either, your point ?
Don't worry anon, it's okay to like pleb-tier industrial hip-hop
>>62064098
Industrial Hip Hop is a dead bandwagon that would need either Death Grips or Dalek as it's pinnacle. No lyricism from all of this sub-genre gets to Dalek levels, from DG to Clipping to Cx Kidtronic to BLACKIE. Most of it is just angry inhuman shouting over electronic hard beats. or gangsta rap over rhythmic instances of noise.
>>62063878
>not FOOD WEED LMAO
what a great opportunity thrown in the trash
>>62058069
>the smiths
At what age did you discover you were a Manic Pixie Dream Girl?
>>62064192
>Most of it is just angry inhuman shouting over electronic hard beats. or gangsta rap over rhythmic instances of noise.
That's definitely true (even in underground industrial hip-hop) buuuut that's also what the fans want to hear. Do you not like noise anon ?

what age did you grow out of eating meat? 20 for me
>>62064344
Oddly enough I do. I like Death Grips, I even like listening to BLACKIE. Just wont even say I listen to Merzbow cause there is always a horny fag who jumps at people saying "HURR YOU JUST LISTEN TO IS ON THE LOW VOLUME CRINGING ALL THE TIME"
At ~16, then grew back into it at 22.
>>62063143
I grew out of it around the 2010s because so much of it became overhyped and boring.

from where do i begin?
>not knowing about the Underachievers or Flat Bush zombies
>>62066979
just go with full albums chronological order or listen to at least the first 2-3 songs from each album in chronological order to see the progression
start from Exmilitary. "beware" is the definitive first impression
>>62067263

hahahahahaahahahaahahahahahahahhahahahahahhahaahahahahahahahahaaha
I grew out of it around 23, then realized that I actually like hip-hop and decided to listen to whatever the fuck I want at 25.
