Tiny list of white rappers who aren’t on that ‘’i hate mumble rap wave’’ or aren’t bad rappers but take from black people and repackage it and are widely praised for it

[thomas hobbs - freelance culture journalist @thobbsjourno]

i think the reason alot of the white rappers in the mainstream come and go in this era is because none of them are prepared to examine their whiteness or truly embrace their roots like early eminem or asher roth did. instead, they just come across as someone putting on a costume

For people who grew up in the blog era Jay was pretty active then still. A 9 year gap between albums is a whole different generation now

[groovy @TheGroovyFiles]

I think people are saying disdain for Jay when they really mean apathy.

Streaming. Streaming. Streaming.

Question

Why do you think music not selling like it use to ?

[ellis @sum1saiditinnit]

it’s what makes hip hop great and annoying at the same time. this genre wouldn’t be so progressive if the younger generation were in reverence to the past but also, what do we have if we don’t respect the history to some extent?

[groovy @TheGroovyFiles]

‘’Jay was never the hottest rapper in his prime’’ may be true may not but yall acting like he was Charles Hamilton so funny

[groovy @TheGroovyFiles]

Outside of that it’s legit good ‘’grown man rap’’

[2 @dimiiitree]

they be remembering 4:44 for black capitalist bars whole time that nigga said “let go your ego over your right shoulder, your left is saying finish your breakfast”

[groovy @TheGroovyFiles]

Veeze saying Safe 2 and Gangermatic are his most emotional songs is very real

Immigrants gotta be in contention for best Gibbs songs

I revisited Blueprint 3 some days ago. It got some shit on it, but it also got some SHIT on it

[groovy @TheGroovyFiles]

Cause hiphop caught lightning in a bottle in terms of digital archiving/streaming/ and relevance.

[Ahmad @KingAhmadTv]

I feel like hip-hop/rap is the only genre where we dismiss our legends calling them “washed up”. You’ll never see someone call Roger Waters who still preforming Pink Floyd hits washed. Or someone like Bruce Springsteen. It’s honestly sad.

HOVAAAAAA 😫😫😫

2027 wishlist
Madness Brackets
AoTY (this year and maybe a comparison to your past AoTYs for funsies)
Most importantly: we need Groovy takes on drama like when Big Sean and Jhene Aiko broke up

[groovy @TheGroovyFiles]

Gonna get my YouTube back ramped up shortly along with IG:

Anything that yall would like to see?

[groovy @TheGroovyFiles]

You can appreciate things that came before you without taken away from other generations etc

Have no idea what peoples issue is when it comes to appreciating things that came before or after them

[groovy @TheGroovyFiles]

It’s not about really who or who isn’t a top rapper anymore can we have respect for people that paved a way at least.

[Drect Williams @Drect]

24 year old says Rakim isn't a Top 10 rapper anymore and the older generation refuses to let go of everyone they loved growing up.

Do you agree with him or is this take disrespectful to hip hop?

[groovy @TheGroovyFiles]

Jay Z Super Bowl performance automatically ass if Tom Ford isn’t played

[groovy @TheGroovyFiles]

I’m sorry?

HOLY SH*T! The Joe Budden Podcast just released one of THE WORST eps of the year.

This comes directly after Joe Budden raised the clipper tier to $7500 to clip the show.

Fans are saying the show is in a creative SLUMP and the guests have been as entertaining as Crime in America.

[groovy @TheGroovyFiles]

Next level.
