Jul 25th 2013 | 16

|
Jul 25th 2013 | 17
|
I don't think so |
|
Jul 25th 2013 | 18

I'm in the worst decade in rap camp |
|
Jul 25th 2013 | 13
|
thing about DOOM's run... |
|
Jul 25th 2013 | 19
|
well *of course* it's the worst decade of the genre. That's unavoidable. |
|
Jul 26th 2013 | 49
|
yet I didn't focus my post in that way |
|
Jul 26th 2013 | 50
|
you're absolutely right, I just did a general riff off your subject line |
|
Jul 26th 2013 | 53

The 2nd half of the decade was brutal for backpack rap |

808 drums defined the decade's sound...at least mainstream |
|
Jul 25th 2013 | 20
|
The decade is the worst if you focus on mainstream but |
|
Jul 25th 2013 | 21
|
I'll tell you one thing... |
|
Jul 25th 2013 | 22
|
things were rough all over. |
|
Jul 25th 2013 | 24
|
there were a shit ton of gatekeepers in the first half n/m |
|
Jul 25th 2013 | 27
|
curators imploded so badly from 04 onwards. |
|
Jul 27th 2013 | 56
|
Would this mean folks like Atmosphere, Aesop? Or who? |
|
Jul 26th 2013 | 39
|
This is a weird statement to me... |
|
Jul 26th 2013 | 44
|
As a whole, I'd say I'm more of a "Hip Hop" or even "Underground" |
|
Jul 26th 2013 | 48
|
I think a lot of the blame can be cast on the fans of said music |
|
Jul 27th 2013 | 59

its not a seperate post and you and RTistic are spot on |

|
Jul 26th 2013 | 46
|

|
Jul 25th 2013 | 23

|
Jul 26th 2013 | 34
|
2001 was a hotter year than 2000 in terms of material. |
|
Jul 26th 2013 | 35
|
Once Phillips sold Polygram to Seagrams it was a wrap for the industry |
|
Jul 26th 2013 | 37

I think its under-discussed/analyzed how much those mergers affected |

you're not romanticizing poverty in the least |
|
Jul 27th 2013 | 68
|
i agree with most of what you said but The Source was done before 02 |
|
Jul 27th 2013 | 61
|
Oh boy... |
|
Jul 25th 2013 | 25
|
I have a theory about it that has to do with the decline in rock |
|
Jul 25th 2013 | 29

one other thing about 2000's rap... |
|
Jul 26th 2013 | 36

People just seem to worship the hell out of the 90's for EVERYTHING |

|
Jul 27th 2013 | 66

The best stuff was connected to Quest, Kast, or Kanye. |
|
Jul 27th 2013 | 62

smh |
|
Jul 27th 2013 | 63

That ain't narrow tho |
|
Jul 27th 2013 | 71
|
I would add Madlib/Doom |
|
Jul 28th 2013 | 74
|

|
Jul 28th 2013 | 76

but see I feel like Dilla wasn't "change" |
|
Jul 28th 2013 | 87

|
Jul 29th 2013 | 89

I think mixtapes should be measured on the same level as albums |
|
Jul 27th 2013 | 70
|
I used to be such an epic backpacker |
|
Jul 27th 2013 | 72
|
does this mean you avoided mainstream during the time |
|
Jul 27th 2013 | 73
|
i couldn't, based on my job and other factors |
|
Jul 28th 2013 | 78
|
Give some examples of backpacker acts/albums that haven't aged well |
|
Jul 28th 2013 | 79

|
Jul 30th 2013 | 105

I think you are only looking at it with your DJ glasses on |
|
Jul 29th 2013 | 94
|
I think "best" vs "most important" is a major difference in what I'm say... |
|
Jul 29th 2013 | 95
|
It's hard to even agree with "Best" |

the democratization of the music |
|
Jul 28th 2013 | 86

I think the most notable thing about this era |
|
Jul 30th 2013 | 104

It did. Yet, it kinda created it too |
