When I see people my parrents age and older they are listening to the same music for decades. That music is still relevant. in 30+ years will the the rap music we listen to now even be rememered. Does out music s---? Or are we to over loaded in music due to the internet we don't fully enjoy it.

There is more and more diverse music being made now than ever before thanks to the technology being more readily available. Since the inception of pop music and radio, we've seen the same pop trends. Even in circles of classical music you had people clinging to the old ways and saying the youth were uncultured yada yada yada. I wouldn't trust an argument for our against this position. The most you can do is assess the differences from generation to generation and draw conclusions based on your personal priorities and preferences.

I can't wait for the classics radio station that plays early 2000s Hip-Hop/R&B

 

Apr 13, 2016

90s >>>>

But yeah, I'm sure you guys will love your music in 30 years lol.

 

Apr 13, 2016

I sure hope so. I can't imagine in my 50s being like "man f--- this music I used to listen to"

 

Apr 13, 2016

I feel like 80's kids do this a lot lmao.

90s were fly though, I wish most of you experienced it. I definitely miss it.

 

Apr 13, 2016

I experienced 2 years of it

 

Apr 13, 2016

Early 2000s was best.

 

Apr 13, 2016

My parents listen to whatever is on the radio (not hip-hop tho), but they do still feel attached to the music they grew up listening to.

Naaaaaaah, can't go there. And I love the early 2000's too.

It's close, but I'd choose 90's over early 2000's by a tiny bit. 1994 to 1999 was pretty f---ing crazy with how many great albums came out a year. I could even put 1993 in the mix too, but I'll just stick with 94-99.

In 95 you had Me Against The World, Lifestyles ov da poor and dangerous, E. 1999, then the Infamous then a couple months later, you had Built 4 Cuban Linx then Doe Or Die, all within like 5 months of each other

I mean, just thinking about 1997... You had

Mase Harlem World
Biggie Life After Death
Wu Tang Wu Forever
Rakim 18th Letter
Will Smith Big Willie Style (laugh, but this was pretty big lol)
Jay Z vol 1
Busta Rhymes When Disaster Strikes
Puff Daddy No Way Out

Then 98..

Jay Z Vol. 2
Lauryn Hill- Miseducation
DMX It's Dark and h--- Is Hot
Outkast Aquemini
Big Pun Capitol Punishment
Lyricist Lounge Vol 1
Onyx Shut Em Down
Method Man Tical 2000

I'll spare you guys the rest of the years, but IDK, I don't remember a time in hip hop like that 5 year span.

@Fitzy making me wish I was older so that I could experience the 90s the way he did. ;

 

Apr 13, 2016

1999 might've been the most disappointing, but I remember reading the promotional ads and the lineup of artists... s--- had Jay Z, Nas, Wu Tang, Red and m---, Rakim, 2Pac, Biggie, Mos Def,m g--- Starr, Mobb Deep, Snoop on No Limit, Dr Dre, and the discovery of Eminem early on.

But only like... 5 of those albums were worth it lmfao. I still put it up there because of SSLP, Blackout, 2001 and I Am

We got kinda owned that year, especially by f---ing Nas' Nastradamus.

 

Apr 13, 2016

There's no vs, it's just more music

 

Apr 13, 2016

More music for sure. But does is have the same replay value as acdc or Ozzy? When I'm 60 and in DA club comes on will I Bob my head?.... Who am I kidding of course I will, lol

 

Apr 13, 2016

that's entirely dependent on individual tastes

 

Apr 13, 2016

The music from the 80's, 70's, and 60's your parents still listen to is mostly best of the best, as the bad stuff has been filtered out and long forgotten.

 

Apr 13, 2016

This is true. I'm just curious if hip hop can be everlasting or if it really is just a phaze. This genre has went through a lot of bumps and twists the few decades it's been around.

 

Apr 13, 2016

Didn't the sslp come out in 98? And the mmlp followed 6 months later in 99.
