What’s Your Take On Rich Amiri XXL Critique?
I don't know if anybody already posted about this my bad if that is the case.
I was curious on what people thought of this.
There is a part of me that does kind of agree with what he's saying I think that XXL should want to evolve it it's platform because it seems like people are less and less interested in the freshman class as the years go on I haven't paid attention to the freshman class since 2018.
but it also kind of feels like he's advocating for a standard to be lowered. I was under the impression that most of the freestyles and the cypher wasn't off the top genuine freestyle anyway. you mean to tell me these artists can at least bring a decent written that they have memorized to the cypher? I want to say Trippie Redd turned down an appearance at the cypher despite being on the freshman list that year, his excuse being the beat was probably gonna be trash or something ridiculous like that and I think he's not the only artist in recent years that has No showed.
it's like asking to take grappling out UFC because most fighters are winning based off of their striking ability anyway (I don't know if that's really the case.
It's just an example.) it wouldn't really be UFC anymore It would just be kickboxing. If your main appeal as an artist is your melodies and not your rapping ability, then I think that's a good indicator.
You're not a rapper You're a singer.
call me an old head for this take, I don't really care if you can't freestyle then maybe you shouldn't be featured on a hip-hop magazine.

Toronto rap scene is straight trash - Change my mind
As the title says, it hasn't been good since the 90's; no bangers, nothing commercially decent. It's mainly wannabe gang bangers (and I use that term loosely). Even the best of them are just local celebs. And, yes, I know the Drake d-riders will come out in full force - at this point, he sucks too - not to mention he got his ass handed to him last year. There was a time when Toronto had more than one successful (I'm talking nationwide, and USA) MCs and Hiphop groups back in 90's and early 2000's. But we won't see that again.

Its a good thing that rap isn’t charting as much
As compared to the 2010s and early 2020s rap music has been less successful in terms of dominating the charts. There is obviously many massive rappers that still release big albums but the number has decreased. This may indicate to some that rap isn’t dying, but i think it is thriving, it just mainstream rap that is dying.
I think as rap has splitting so many branches, such as rage, ukug, lyrical, dmv, pop rap, ect, people have started to choose their personal favourite kind of rap rather than just listening to whatever is popular (although some popular rap is still great). The reason that so many branches of rap now have their medium size dedicated fanbases is because it is so much easier to find small/ medium artists with social media, and is so much more accessible to release music, especially on soundcloud.
This means that people aren’t restricted in what kind of rap to listen to so the most popular rap won’t be as dominant.
Also, unrealetedly I would like to say i think ukug is very underrated overseas, and I would encourage everyone to check out jim legacy, syst7m, chefbkay, and trgobrazy

Czy jest jakiś Polski raper pokroju MF DOOM/Lupe Fiasco/Earl Sweatshirt?
Hej, nie znalazłem znaleźć żadnego większego subreditta gdzie mógłbym dostać odpowiedź w miarę szybko, dlatego pisze tutaj. Ostatnio chciałem wkręcić w Polski rap, ale nic z mainstreamu mi nie siada. Lubię concious/jazz/chill rap, coś pokroju artystów w tytule, ale nie mogę znaleźć żadnego odpowiednika z polskiego podwórka. Coś takiego bardziej spokojnego, na luźnych beatach. Dzięki z góry za wszystkie odpowiedzi :)
