We'll see where this one goes.
thanks for your feedback a head of time.

I usually don't bash entire genres or movements... and I usually am pretty open-minded to mainstream stuff. But I couldn't agree more that mainstream hip-hop is in a very sad state. There are a couple of gems now and then, but the majority of it seems to be so-called RnB (which today means hip-hop without rapping) or... for lack of a better word.. hip-pop (yes I made a pun), which seems to fuse pop singing with modern hip hop production.
