That's why people like black thought and mos def are classic. Didn't sell to many records but are considered legends. Now a days it's the opposite. These dudes catch heat for a max 2-3 years and disappear.

Rap/hip hop is notorious for producing short lived careers tho since it's birth...that's nothing new


Autotune an mumble rappers are just the latest passing trend in rap .....which again is not anything we haven't seen before

I will reference again....the souths line dancing movement....that shit was so bad Nas made a fuckin song called hip hop is dead lol

An yet that fad has passed and gone....everything that's being said now about the new style popularized in mainstream currently has been said about all of the other trending movements of yesterday as well.

Can we please all act like we have been here before. Sheesh
