There's always gonna be the pop stuff. I just kinda combine guys like Drake into the whole pop genre cause he's not a true rapper in my book. Groups like Wu Tang are never gonna be mainstream. The hip hop of the 90s is never coming back because nobody is as raw anymore. Those guys actually lived the streets and weren't in the entertainment business as young teens like guys like Drake and Wayne.
I have an appreciation for real rhymers... i appreciate lyrics, flow, rhyme schemes, etc. I don't wanna sit through a verse to wait for the chorus, i like being excited for the verse. I don't want to always dance to a rap song, i wanna jam to it and appreciate it.
Any newer guys who are lyrical, please suggest. Always looking for good stuff out there. It'll just never be mainstream and I understand why and I'm cool with that.
