I don't understand this new generation... Current "hip hop" discussion.

How is a less talented artist supposedly "better" than the older artists? I literally got into a shouting match with a buddy of mine on PlayStation last night about Post Malone being classified as "hip hop". I literally got upset at this 19 year old kid I've never met b before because he said Post Malone was a better rapper than Tupac. Lol! I'm not even a huge Pac fan! I always rode with Biggie in the beef. I've had numerous discussions with my friends in KC that grew up in the hood about that shit. Mother fuckers 20 years later were ready to scrap with me because i didn't like Pac all that much. But these kids know Juicy but they have no idea who made the song! It's just crazy to me. I asked him about some old soul records like Teddy P and Smokie Robinson. Dude had no idea who i was talking about. It's crazy. It's more that they have no appreciation for the previous generation than liking their current artists.
