ppl LOVE to be contrarians on the internet and alot of them fancy themselves to be expert music critics but really they are nothing more than opinionated ppl behind a monitor.

Good or bad comments shouldn't offend you just draw from them any validity they have and discard the rest but don't take them personal cause if you do you'll become vulnerable to them so just laugh them off and go on with your day.

Well said!

I should say mainstream hip-hop really suffered a drastic drop in quality since around 2006. Back then, 50 was probably the worst big rapper around, nowadays his early material is top-level compared to the stuff lots of current guys put out.

Why do people have to put down credible artists for these pop tarts?

I am not even a huge Beatles fan but just saying...

Pretty sure the "not real music" rant is a modern phenomenon and didn't happen back in the 80s or even 90s. I don't remember a single person saying that during my youth.

Devil music? Bad influence? sure. But no one accused them of not producing real *insert genre here*.

It's kind of an old adage against more experimental artists. Back in 1902 (? Don't quote me on that date) Luigi Russulo premiered The Art of Noise and people were so upset by it 'not being real music' that a riot broke out. This happened at every one of his shows. A lot of John Cage's works, most notably 4'33" but also his tapeworks, were belittled as not being music either. Hell, even Bach was ridiculed by some critics as being to contrived and pointless to be music. Hip-hop was pretty different from the standards most people had for music at the time and some sucked up the new sound and others whined about the newest 'not music' in town.
