I know there are rock bands that have taken it back to the earlier days of rock, like The White Stripes and The Black Keys to name two. If new people did that in Hip-hop, i could definitely listen to it. I'm talking all the way from Kurtis Blow to N.W.A. eras. How many feel the same?
There's so many different things going on with hip-hop that it's hard for me to give much of a response to this question. I mean, yeah, I think a lot of top 40 hip-hop is garbage but there's still tons and tons of great stuff out there.
