thats another trend i dislike almost as much as the whole techno shit. it comes off as lazy to me.
you know how many beats i trashed, that are dope beats by todays standards, because i couldnt get drums to go right with it. but i could rhyme to it without drums
putting drums on it is half the battle.
and what makes me sick is people actually argue for the beat not having drums
ITS HIP HOP
you need drums. i want a kick thats gonna blow my speakers. a snare thats gonna crack my mids, and a hihat that is gonna make my ears bleed off beat out the tweeters
its just discouraging.
i can only equate it to country music. back in the day it was a dude and a guitar yo. ACOUSTIC. they would have a steel guitar and maybe a violin. and it was real. soulful. but now country music is pop music. they have electric guitars and rock drumsets. they throw in a steel guitar or a violin and talk about tractors, so people are like yea its country
it aint country
just like yeezus aint hip hop. its techno pop music with a guy rapping over top. if al green put out an album singing about love over death metal you wouldnt call it soul music or r'n'b
dont call yeezus hip hop
