The only rappers from the past few years that are considered "lyrical" that I like at all are Jay electronica, danny brown, action bronson and odd future is alright. a lot of recent alternative rap is really bad too. I was a big fan of def jux but death grips, shabazz palaces, clipping etc don't do anything for me. I'm much more of a street rap fan nowadays

> No one has posted the GOAT

His college dropout album and late registration basically helped end Gangster rap and start a new era of mainstream Hip Hop
each album pushed new boundaries, even if just in terms of mainstream music
808s and heartbreaks helped start a more emotional style of hip hop and RnB

he was praised for his production style
never considered that great a rapper but has been known to drop some clever lines in the past

His records are pretty solid and he has molded a respectable aesthetic about himself and surrounds himself with good musicians and producers

what's rap?

you mean hip hop? why did you start a thread about hip hop when you don't even know what it is?

you have it backwards, rap isn't a type of music, it's a vocal style.

hip hop is a type of music that is usually accompanied by rapping.
>>
>>60775733
How is it backwards? And even if it was you admit that they are different?

Rap is poetry expressed with flow and rhythm. Rap without is like spoken word. Rap is the one that accompanies Hip-Hop. Hip-Hop is more of the beat.

Because /mu/ is extremely contrarian, and because the majority thinks Pac is the GOAT (for good reason), they've decided to convince themselves that he's shit.
>>
>>60766450
Shame he was fucking insane.

I feel like as he got older, his music would've gotten weirder and weirder and his lyrics would've gotten straight up crazy and people would stop taking him seriously.

The shit the guy believed was honestly beyond crazy. Dude thought he was an indigo child. He thought he was the messiah. He thought that in the year 2047 the world was gonna end and he was gonna be reincarnated as a god or some shit.
