Anarcho-Capitalist

How does music that sells terrible not promote capitalism? If it is selling on a market then it is pro-capitalism. Anyways bad rap has been around for a while. Good rap isn't spreading anymore because of things like MTV and VH1.

yeah dude all new rap is ****, but of coarse rappers are going to sell what people want to dance to at the club seeing most inter city kids dont have the money to buy new records and they just want to dance to it. Also, none of the new cds are fully good, so most new rappers make 1 single that sells everywhere and people buy on itunes
music industry is real lame |

I would have to agree with all of this.. But I think what you mean is the current mainstream is garbage. There are some decent new rappers, and definitely many oldies still making new material.
But i think the spirit of the whole genre is being lost. We are living in an era where Lil' Wayne is "the best rapper ever!!" Its kind of depressing. But i assume it will pass soon enough. I think it all started with that damn Thong Song lol. |

There's still some good artists out there. Not all new rap is like Lil Wayne and Birdman "makin it rain". Dont lose faith in the poetry of the streets. I'll make some recommendations of some rap albums to check out:
El-P - "I'll Sleep When You're Dead" Lupe Fiasco - "The Cool" Aesop Rock - "None Shall Pass" Kanye West- "Graduation" Jay-Z - "American Gangster" |
