first Decade where Rap didn't have to share a thing with R&B fully 1)
meaning the late 70's through 80's called a fad or gimmick
90's hardcore and shock and also words and buzz 2)
in the 00's it all became all out Pop Music. no longer were you a Hardcore rapper, Soft Rapper, Safe rapper or social, it was a Gumbo all the same first time ever. 3)
a whole new generation of era grew up seeing there heros as Rappers period. 4)
the 00's marked the end of the Boutique label and Domiance instead was all signed directly to a Jimmy Iovine and a Clive Davis outright.
the Labels stopped doing Boutique and went straight into things. 5)
Big Pop Artists with Hip Hop Producers became the Norm as to being surprising in the 90's 6)
More rapping singers became more acceptable 7)
Rappers lasting longer as well. first decade where it ain't a thing 8)
Rappers winning Big time Awards like an Outkast for Pop Album of the year at the Grammys. 9)
to me the 00-09 marked a anything goes with Hip Hop and also it became accessible and lost its edge. 10)
coporate endoresements and merging became the norm along with more, films, commericals, clothing line, etc,. 11)
its been dissed as being dead by its elder statesmen and middle age and yet it still thrives so its at War with itself and yet it's firmly established and it still has a divide however for many different reasons. 12)
Deaths, Boutique Label CEO's beefing, Protest, bootlegs, critics, Fox News, etc... nothing can stop it and it ain't going nowhere 13)
