We need Nas, Em, Andre 3000 and Action Bronson to drop their albums.

Gime nas and ill be good with that.
-
Since like 2006 the heavyweight rappers tend to drop albums in the 4th quarter. For the most part. I hate this trend but it's understandable.

Damn near most of the mainstream rappers sound similar. I miss the days when most artists had distinctive styles. -

Drake
Future
Gates
Jay
Nas
Wayne
Tip
One may delve into the others style or a certain style but theres a distinct difference in all of em
And there's always something to look forward to with underground artists -
Last couple of years has been pretty good for hip hop..
I think it's finally found its balancing point.. -

So there aren't a bunch of mumble mouth rappers or rappers struggle singing/harmonizing? How is that not similar? -
Desiigner
Future
Young thug
Lil yachty
Fetty wap
Ferg
21 savage
Drake
Tory lanez
Bryson tiller
Wale
Sean
Cole
Chance the rapper
Kendrick
Badass
If I was to group them more or less. There ain't enough unique styles in the mainstream at the end of the day good thread idea though -
Reks dropping a new album next month. So I can't complain. And I think roc marciano is dropping on with alchemist
-
We need unreleased biggavel from 08

Future the only one mainstream , maybe fetty wap
Lmaoooo at thinking lil yahty or young thug goin anything more than double cardboard -
Hip Hop is doing a hell of a lot better than R&B right now...
I actually don't think it's doing all that bad....We have Chance, Drake, J. Cole, Big Sean, Wale... <--all people who are more than capable lyricist when they want to be (Drake might have material written for him...I'm not 100% about him)
We have hype artists. Future, Desiigner, Young Thug, etc. (I don't really listen to them) <--- these people are important too...even in the 80s-90s not all the music was lyrical...there were hype tracks.
We need more competition in the game though...competition is what makes people improve. There's no real urgency from the people at the top of the game...because there's no real wolfpack at the bottom of the game threatening them. Look at Drake...dude's reached the point where he says whatever the ? he wants in a song and he knows its gonna blow up...because he knows no one else is dropping any music that will take away from his. -
Money is the reason why 90% of these guys do this so there ain't gonna be any competition

Sucks

Wish we could swap '16 with '96

I wasnt sayin the current state of hiphop is bad by any means. All im sayin is that so far its been a quiet year.
-

So no love for tde j cole vince staples...? For the most part i agree tho...mainstream is ? these days but theres alot of good underground hiphop ou there. That elzhi album was probly my top pick of the year so far. -
The year ain't lost yet... But it's felt like a real slow one. I usually compile lists at the end of each year for best/underrated/disappointing albums.
2016 been a real ? with no real big quality albums yet. I'm still holding out hope tho. -
