Cuz we in a generation where the new rappers think we should completely end the XXL Cypher cuz they suck so bad at rapping and the bar so in HELL there’s ppl who actually think that makes sense.
I'm tired and sıck of people saying: “the book was better than the movie.” Give me a movie that was actually WAY BETTER than the book. I want to know which books were so bad that Hollywood had to save them.
@dumpsterjpeg Late millennial and Gen Z are obsessed with infantilizing themselves and not maturing and blaming their issues on their parents instead of taking ownership and accountability for themselves
@dumpsterjpeg Asian americans when you ask them to write about literally anything else except how much they hate their parents and how much they love fucking white people
Like what did you think teenagers was on when Check The Rhime dropped? Wearing Fedoras? Saying “hey that’s cool my man”…
NO. We were wearing Jordans and starter jackets…..
People add what they think sounds good to their song freely. If you start calling it Jazz rap, then everyone becomes boxed by it's sample choices which makes no sense
I feel you brother 9th but what is trap music, what is drill music, why can’t there be JAZZ RAP? I mean Guru did Jazz Rap with Miles Davis, and there is strong elements of Jazz in Tribes music, the Roots and more. So why not JAZZ RAP? But I do get the greater point in regard to Tribe- those brothers are pure hip hop.

"The first record we did together was “Words I Manifest.” I said to him I had to go back to school again, one more time, to tie up some loose ends and I sent him the beat. I was really into jazz samples because no one really capped those. It was the James Brown era. It was like if you didn’t have a James Brown loop you weren’t in the loop, basically. No one was really messing with jazz samples. My grandfather was in a jazz band, so I figured, “Let me see how to put hardcore beats to those types of sounds,” being that they were instrumental. I wasn’t on a jazz mission or anything like that. We started to get labeled as jazz rap. And, to me, jazz rap means you rap about jazz. We did two records like that." @REALDJPREMIER
