JID, Wu-Tang, Clipse, Big L, Earl Sweatshirt, Joey Bada$$, Mobb Deep, Aminé, Ty Dolla $ign, Rico Nasty, Drake & PARTYNEXTDOOR, BigXThaPlug, TiaCorinne, Dave East, Benny the Butcher, and plenty of other artists have dropped this year. I think y'all just don't actually like rap.
Rap sucks right now because of botted streams and Kendrick Lamar. Nobody is doing anything original out of fear of “falling off.”
Ye X Drake album saves the genre.
Interpolation is not a bad thing. Biggie did it with La Di Da Di on Hypnotize. Mariah Carey did it with If You Think You're Lonely Now on We Belong Together. Kendrick/BJ the Chicago Kid did it with Open Your Eyes on R.O.T.C. Cole did it with Elevators (Me & You) on The Villest.
