I like Wu Tang, was listening to Chamber Music before.

Not a brill album, not a bad one though.

The rap game is still good to me. Snoop, Dre, and Ludacris is about all I listen to with the occasional Lil Wayne. That and a few of my friends are all I listen to. I don't really like Luda's new album, but Red Light District and back is good. Snoop is just awesome as is Dre. That's just what I'm in to.

As someone said, it's on life support. It's very close to dead, but I feel like it can make a comeback, it just needs some good mainstream performers besides Young Money and R&B/techno/T-Pain voice shit.

I'm rocking Illmatic and Reasonable Doubt right now, definitely my choices for best two Hip-Hop albums ever.

I dont believe that hip hop is dead. I jus believe that hip hop comes in different forms and people need to except that fact. The old school hip hop was more about delivering a messege and telling a story. Lil wayne's hip hop is good too for the simple fact that he has amazing wordplay some of his songs may be shit but for the most part he kills his songs if you actually listen and understand it. If you want a story telling rapper i suggest listening to Z-Ro

I'll admit that most songs on the radio suck. I just think that saying "if so and so is on the radio/ is signed with this record label has no talent" is ignorant.

I take it back. I'd say 90-95% of shit on the radio could EASILY be replaced with REAL music. Mainstream is def. killing it.

i just knew koosh would be up in here hahaha

hip hop is alive and well out back tokin a fat j. rap is fucked tho i havent heard a single new group of rappers in like 5 years maybe 10

some underground stuff is so good it deserves to get heard but more likely wont especially by the youth who should be into it but are getting little wayne and kid crudi

true heads wont ever let hip hop die.

no doubt don lol.:peace: i also wanted to add that dont just specifically listen to underground. i listen to whatever i think sounds good to me no matter what its classified as. years ago i listened to lots of mainstream hip hop but now i cant find much mainstream that i like(but there is a tiny selection):evil:. so i either listen to old shit or underground dudes who keep it creative and dont make music just for women, clubs, and to sell a million records. kiss-assmy girl likes that shit though.:spew:

hahah i hear that man ill listen to most music genres my ipod has everything from the eagles to nwa.

i wonder what most folks class as main stream, shit i remember thinking jurassic 5 were mainstream haha

theres the odd underground making it mainstream in the uk by that i mean getting radio play but they tone down for the masses which is bullshit imo. for example take 'example' 2 mixtapes an album of street clever rap then sold out to get radio play and £££ much like the black eyed peas those cats were actually a credible hip hop outfit till the chick got busted for selling coke and got replaced by fergie !?!?! who well cant rap/sing dance shit even the autotune has a hard time with her shit.

ill stop now...
