    you’re focused on Drake and I’m focused on the genre not having any good music.

    This site just defended pitchfork giving an AI riddled album above a 2 but apparently the beef is more important to yall

    good music is not equal as a top 10 song lmao ur dumb asl

  • Anthracite

    Like bruh who is listening to nettspend

    This is such a stupid metric. I don’t remember the last time I heard a Taylor swift song irl but I wouldn’t say nobody listens to it

    Comparing Taylor swift to one of the 100 opium spawns

    Be remotely serious with me boss

    New gen just kinda sucks

    Still waiting on the next big thing

    narrator's voice: what he don't realize is it'll never come because the next big thing was nothing more than something that was media created in order for the zeitgeist to know what was hip and feasible to pour money into for the next 3-4 years and now with streaming and AI also taking a chunk out of the market, that's been thrown out the window and it's a truly free market with niche audiences for everyone and no concentrated audience for 1, thus a "next big thing" will never be advertised again

    Majority of new gen is never filing out anything close to an arena outside of a festival slot no cap.

    It’s just an example. It’s a dumb argument to make. You made a thread about the billboard charts. Most people on here have probably never heard any of those songs

    Also this.

    Hip hop media is a joke, probably in its worst state it's ever been in so nobody wants to do interviews (rightfully so)

  • Anthracite

    Kanye West had AI help him make his latest album.

    You consume AI SLOP and aren’t a serious listener

    being a chart watcher means you arent a serious listener

    They do interviews just not with the mainstream millennial core outlets

    pre-covid.

    xxx was bout to do football numbers.
    juice wrld and pop were the only 2 that had it.

    if losing rappers kills a genre, then that genre never had a chance lol.
