did rock really die? will hip hop ever die, or is rapping now a permanent part of music? punk definitely died. jazz will stick around the way classic music does.

Hip Hop was never alive.
Rock is still alive but it will die. Hip hop will die. I will die. You will die. Everyone will die. Everything will die.

nah. this >>66173277 pretty much applies to everything that "dies"

hip hop is only second to pop in "aliveness" right now, so no.
i wonder about pop though, will it always be alive as long as marketing corporations are alive?
there is a burning thought in my head that electronic music will absolutely outclass all other genres in the future. This will be most likely be due to newfound technology, and the popular and underground scenes will flourish beyond the likes of past electronic music.
why I think this, I dunno
I don't understand how people haven't gotten tired of hip-hop yet. Rock evolved into countless different subgenres and new experimental styles, but hip-hop has just gone from boom-bap to gangsta rap to dumb trap, all the new stuff sounds so similar. I know there are some good underground rappers/producers but even most of the albums /mu/ says are "modern hip-hop masterpieces" or "experimental" are just the exact same trap beats you hear in every pop song.

This is so wrong. Hip hop has changed a lot just these past 10 years. You just aren't listening to the right stuff.

Although I do agree that over the last couple of years there haven't been many amazing albums outside of specific artists.

those rave scenes will always be popular because drug culture will always exist. maybe it will get bigger because of legalization, but i dunno about absolutely outclassing. the technology is already as good as it will get though, you can literally make any sound imaginable.

XXX, TPAB, Pinata. MBDTF, IDLSIDGO, 1999, and Summertime '06 are all by different artists and are all good in my opinion. I may just like hiphop more than the average person on /mu/ though.

What pop is alive right now? People outside of music enthusiastics couldn't care less right now. Mainstream culture is dying a lingering, slow death.
