Tbh lil pump ngl 😂😂 I swore that man was gonna be next up frfr

Lil pump fs

6ix9ine easily

Smokepurp, lil pump, x

I don't feel like pump had the biggest fall imo. I'm 26, and I feel like most ppl hitting their late 20s can agree that gimmicky hiphop or "clout hop" from the jump had a shelf life. We knew their fans would grow up, we knew they wouldn't adapt and reinvent themselves. These guys are still trying to ride the SoundClout wave of the last 2010s. That being said there was always a ceiling for guys like pump. I'm old enough to know in the late 2000s and early 2010s there was also little funky waves of gimmicky rappers that died off just before the clout era and I instantly recognized that the scene entirely wouldn't die off but the artists would become interchangeable which creates a space where 1 gets on as 1 dies off and so on. So nah, I never thought pump was going to become anything more than a laugh for older fans and someone the kids would eventually grow out of anyway, saying he was the biggest fall off would imply you thought he had longevity to begin with but ruined that potential and fell from grace from fans and peers point of views. Just my take

Facts

Just like j Cole said it happen.....

Yup, I was in high school 2012-2016, poppin pills all the way thru 2018 bangin whatever was hot on the chart, eventually i went back to blunts and 90s hip hop

They entered into the working field and they realizing working sucks, car payments and rent suck lol that kind of music sucks 🤣

They did not "age badly" they were always so bad you legit had to google if the artist/song was a parody when you first heard it. You (and many others) liked it because you mistook fame and hype for flow and bars. Its OK to admit it.

I agree with you so much man.

Thank god for underground music though. Those clowns can have their spotlight for all I care. Those that know, know

Chalk that up as a negative result of internet culture. Ppl want to be entertained so bad they'll watch ppl do anything... So ppl started doing anything. The love for clout comes from the love of money, and attention.. Those things are like drugs (but no one talks about it because just like drugs, those things hide/cover the problem... But how could they? That's what "the dream" is right?).

*Funny how Hiphopmadness talks about other rappers for clout and complains about rappers clout chasing.. the irony*

Facts and most these dudes be taking from underground artists, the styles the cadences, this ish real. I think its meant to keep us as collective looking crazy signing people like that while not givin a chance to those that actually can produce and has talent.

U can say that bout every artist :D

realest comment

Not lying. I think that's what it's about. I think that's why it's popular too. Their fans have the same issues. Not making fun of anyone or taking light of mental health issues. Mental health issues are serious. But the only logical conclusion I can come to why people would find this music entertaining is coping with their own personal issues. For instance, I'm not a fan of heavy metal, but I don't say "Omg, it's so terrible!" That's what the majority of music fans say about this style of rap.

Still feels amazing to have witnessed this era. It will definitely go down in history

@@MontamZoo yes that 2017-2018 soundcloud era was goated, we had plenty memories a lot of good ones and a few bad one. Very memorable

That’s always been a thing in hip hop, it’s just that back then, they was getting money because they had talent. In recent years, it’s been a lot of kids fazed by the money and numbers/charts.

You're wrong my guy. 6ix9ine got so many bangers. Def going down in the books and will not be forgotten anytime soon

wouldn't call it making music

Music with substance. With intelligent ideas. With needed critique of societies'issues---that's everlasting. Why is 2pac a legend posthumously? Because his words were relatable and had substance. He cared about expression. He cared about racism and culture and the inequality present. Same reason Kanye is above all these little rainbow peacock hair fukkboys just Mubbling BS and showing off fake chains...

@Asmodeus Guy And you’re delusional

@@jirrellj if you mean Lyrically, yeah. sound wise the shit got cranked the fuck up and with this hyperpop stuff i cant stand, it seems like it just keeps progressing. mumble rap seems to be an extreme focus on _melody_ rather than _message,_ like pop. some rappers combine the two and ascend, like kendrick. i personally listened to rock as a kid, didnt know the words but knew the melodies. thats most of that entire genre. so from my view, having more melodic (so Rhythmic, more on beat) rap is perfect. what do you enjoy about lyrical rap?

@@KreepKarnage even sound wise, it devolved. Nowadays many beats don’t sound innovative, and they sound generic, once you heard one then you pretty much heard them all. I’m pretty sure there was a reason why T Pain went on that rant, even Pvlace of 808 Mafia has spoken out about this.

I would agree if musical ability directly correlated with music success. if the music Industry, with it's inner workings and affairs didn't exist and the world was just people finding music on their own and discussing it with others. but that isn't the case, so you're wrong. a MJ will always be successful but acting like every nigga and they mamma is gonna know who DJ Quik is, that's bullshit. there are plenty of people struggling for attention, that doesnt say shit about their art. refer to Prince's early career.

Doja is a man? 😧

Fr, people don’t realize theres different phases of hip hop, apparently these rappers were part of the “clout era” where you didn’t need to have talent to be popular, now that the clout era is over these “clout” rappers have nothing to put out because it doesn’t fit in with the music going on right now, I kinda feel sad for them but at least they had their time of fun and fame, but when you have true talent it stretches a long run for you

The only thing I could find new in this era was minimal lyricism and colourful hair. Talking about autotune, using autotune isn’t a bad thing. We had someone like Tpain years ago. Talking about tats, I think Lil Wayne was the one brought that trend. And drug usage always been there.
