But Punk didn't invent the idea of rebelling to a genre and strip down its sound to the basics, it did invent the idea of rebelling to Rock music of its time.
So, even assuming the mumbled rap trap thing is indeed rebellious towards the rules of Hip Hop, that doesn't make it any more Punk than Basketball is like Hockey 'cause you still shove a thing into a net. |
There are definitely parallels in the DIY nature of the two genres. Even ignoring lyricism, from the standpoint of production it's pretty accessible for anyone to make beats just by downloading something like FL Studio or Ableton. A lot of it is just having a dirty 808 bassline.

Let's name names. Is this whole thread about Lil Yachty?

Well I don't think he's talking about DOOM.

I don't even like Lil Yachty, but I appreciate the lack of concern for traditional hip hop standards. People will insist all day long, up and down the street that music shouldn't have any creative restrictions, and yet when it comes to hip hop then "it's a lyrical genre" so of course you must have complex, multi-syllabic lyrics to make Robert Frost jealous, and the flow must be rhythmically complex as well, or else you won't sound like you're trying to be the best MC on earth.
**** that. The funny thing is that black people I've known don't seem to care all that much about that ****, whereas white people can be downright fascist. I suspect the crackers are just insecure about listening to a traditionally black genre and swallow whatever restrictive bull**** they think they need to so people won't think they're ignorant honkies. |
Preference=/=creative restriction

Have you listened to Teenage Emotions? The album cover is so awesome. It's funny they hate this guy because he gives them nothing to hate. I think you might kind of like it. It's just pop music. |
