May 3, 2021 I don't think people really cared about him like that. Internet era and reconnecting with Em helped him a lot.
May 3, 2021 Said he's felt not that he is. We have seen him in clubhouse convos with other artists/producers and they was telling him how the white boy is trash and he's way better.
May 3, 2021 Am I the only one who finds it cringy when other white people call Em white boy or some s--- lol
May 3, 2021 If that's the case then why do no radio stations in the UK play it? Why isn't the top 40 singles or top 10 albums filled with this music? This trap music. This hip hop rapping music? Enlighten me and the rest of the UK where all this music is and where it's getting played and who these people that perform it are. No one plays it cause it's not popular. No one cares about it cause if they did care I would know about it, it would be on TV, all the singers and rappers would be on TV performing it, they would be in the charts, their albums would be on shop shelves getting sold. Maybe outside the UK it's different, maybe in America Akon is still singing about getting Locked Up and Sean Paul is dancing with women and Jay-Z is dancing on the streets of New York but here in the UK............we said goodbye to that 10 years ago. These people don't matter, they're not relevant.
May 3, 2021 The No. 1 song on the UK charts rn is a rap song with Polo G and Doja Cat in the top 10 too. What u smokin? lol who are you, Boris Johnson?
May 3, 2021 I think DEHH is a really good channel and I agree with them a lot but every once in a while they get outta pocket lol
May 3, 2021 everything you wrote is true. after 2011-2012, the classic hip-hop we listened to in the 2000s died. but here on the forum people still think that Eminem is as great an artist as he was in 2010. and this is true not only for the UK, but everywhere in Europe and the world. The USA is the only country right now where hip-hop still matters, but even in the USA it is a completely different hip-hop.
May 3, 2021 Obviously he's a rapper with a name like "Lil" but good grief I only know 3 other names on that list. But here's my point. Back in the 2000's you would see singers and rappers on the TV. You would hear their songs the radio, you'd see the music videos, you'd see them guest on chat shows. Apart from 3 people I don't know who these people are and I watch TV and listen to the radio. I'll need to start youtubing these songs. Why do I have this image in my mind that the rest are under 25 years old and don't have any albums, they're all just singles and I've nothing against that either. I like loads of songs by artists that they released a couple of songs and that was it, you never saw them again. I'd love to know if anyone outside of the UK knows anyone on that chart apart from Justin Bieber. I want to know if someone in Washington is bumping Polo G and someone in Germany waiting up till midnight on a Thursday to see if Riton and Mufasa drop a surprise album lol. Acting is the same. You used to get big stars. Big larger than life characters. They just don't make them like they used to. Music. Acting. Television. It's just young people pretending they're something and they're nothing compared to what came before them. You just don't get real stars anymore. Real talent. The kind of people that if you saw them walking down the street you would turn your head, even if you didn't know who they were you would know.....that's a somebody. I bet you everyone else on that chart are just normal looking people that look like my next door neighbour. No stars anymore.
May 3, 2021 I have no dog in this fight but if you don't know who somebody is then you obviously wouldn't recognize them and not everyone needs to look crazy or ultra unique to be remotely recognizable although it definitely helps lol
May 4, 2021 Idk about rap, but when it comes to acting, Anya Taylor Joy is pretty dope, and when it comes to pop, there's some big artists out there. Rap pretty much has Drake nowadays, like always.
May 4, 2021 I see I'm not the only one missing Em's big hits. And the last big song by Jay was NIP with Kanye, at least in Hip Hop circles. 4:44 is a classic to me though. Most of the artists you named are just old and washed, I doubt Jay, Kanye, Em, or Wayne will drop another hit unless it has a good feature.
