I have trouble understanding english lyrics, so I don't pay much attention to them.
I enjoy a nice, intricate flow, the flow in old school stuff is mostly too straightforward for me.
Most experimental hip-hop is kinda uninteresting flow-wise for me.
I enjoy weird, experimental production, but a nice, groovy, sample-based beat is even more preferred.
When listening to hip-hop in russian and german I mostly enjoy good, creative, funny punchlines in the lyrics.
Storytelling and political messages don't really interest me, I mostly find that stuff a little corny, although there are exceptions.
