>>63162486
Because instrumentals are important to me
>>63162550
i dont get your point
>>63162567
My bad, I thought you meant "doesn't like the classics"
>>63162567
A lot of the classics have simple boom-bap stuff
It's not bad per se but some like more complex,challenging instrumentals and arrangements
>>63162677
do you mean like Kanye and Kendrick
>>63162550
The classics have some of the best instrumentals that all modern rap albums are influenced from. what the fuck are you talking about
>I'm a upcoming rapper thats raps about real issues bringing back that real hip hop checkout my channel !
>>63162706
Kind of
Whenever Ye or K use boom-bap they kind of add their own personal tinge to it to make it sound more modern, be it distortion, synths, hi-hats, etc.
In terms of old, classic 90's stuff you tend to see more of the raw drum samples and crashing cymbals that the style of production was founded on, and not everyone likes that
rap is just a shit genre in general. im sorry, but i have it a fair chance, even tried listening to the artists that are considered more cerebral and none of it is interesting.
>>63162721
Not to me. I don't care about the "classics" for the reason anon >>63162677 explained.
>>63162811
>what i dont get and like is shit
keep being this cerebral friend
>>63162472
exactly this. How fucking hard is that? It's not one or the other if you don't delude yourself into thinking it is
clouddead sucks and sounds nothing like modern cloud rap
>>63162846
actually i do understand it. i didnt listen to one song and decide its shit, i listened to many albums considered classics. i understand the genre, and i understand why people like it. doesnt change the fact that its still just a bunch of monkeys acting like monkeys in front of a mic with nig beats underneath.
>just a bunch of monkeys acting like monkeys in front of a mic with nig beats underneath
you definitely understand it
