When hip-hop/rap didn't suck ass
A retrospective of when beats rolled deep with soul and funk and lyrics were penned with craft and care.

I don't find this stuff that everybody says is "real rap/hip hop" to be anything I'd listen to for more then 30 seconds.
because its 10 years ago means its better.. Definitely!
no matter who writes it now just because its well known and new its obviously a disgrace to rap and anybody who listens to it is an idiot.

No, the problem is just that 80% of the old stuff was and still is good... where 20% of the new stuff is good.
You're correct. Not all new stuff is horrible.
It's not a matter of it being 10 years old, therefore it's good. It's a matter of it simply being good.
You're not an idiot if you listen to the majority of the new stuff. You just have poor musical taste
Last year's "Walk it Out" by whoever-the-fuck is a perfect example of absolute trash.
Contrast it with "Let's Go" by Trick Daddy/Twista which actually had thought behind it and great production of that mean underlying track, even if it was just another "I'm badass" theme... which is so fucking tired it's not funny.
Snap and Roll? Are you KIDDING ME? Worst shit I've ever heard.

Okay yes.. "Walk it Out" IS trash.. A LOT of everything I hear on 98.7 is TRASH.
I have heard good rap though, none of it is on the radio. I'm just making sure you weren't totally narrow minded.
I listened to that "Mind playing tricks on me" I thought that was pretty damn good BTW
