I'm mostly in to lyrical rap, but i have recently got into trap rap. I still dont know what to think about it.

[Nope3]

Both. I think it is definitely both. It’s now such a big genre it can go into so many different directions

[AlexisV]

It's hard to say one or the other. It depends of your perception and certainly the generation we're from

[Fuckheqd]

Getting worse tbh

[KingWizard67]

I really like some new artist but I think things always change, so it’s just natural that rap is going in different directions.

Recently starting listening to japanese rap, and I think its evolving and getting better, this might differ from person to person though

[stroby]

mainstream rap has always been awful, from the corny dancey shit in the 80s, new jack swing in the early 90s, "jiggy" rap in the late 90s, "snap/southern rap in the early 00s, trap in the late 00s, drake-ish r&b+autotune shit in the ealy 10s, mumblerap now. but theres also always been lots of underground artists still killing it. specifically in NY theres kind of a renaissance happening with the griselda guys and all their affiliates and basically all the rappers that have worked with alchemist and dj muggs in the past 5 years.

[lilnippies]

just depends, some say rap might evolve

I think rap has gotten way worse. There's no real creativity in it, and I hear nothing but cuss words and crude lyrics repeated every few words. There's not even a full sentence or thought in them. And the music is just whatever they can put onto a synthesizer. But the stuff sells, and I don't get why.

[Karpkarp]

not easy to say, but i kinda still enjoy the old school gansta rap visit more than the vibes of this generation

[Cris P Bacon]

It got worse after getting better. Still better than the 90s where 'rap' was just older stolen songs spoken out loud.

[amudopyosido]

its definitely both. lots of different kinds but theyre bad too lol

[hamiso]

Definitely evolving wont you think so. imho.

[urtutu]

I agree bro you are the best

[hamiso]

I am glad you enjoy it

[JailbrokenJedi]

With the proliferation of mumble rapping I would have to say much much worse.

[poopoo186969]

like most things the mainstream stuff isnt usually grounbreaking but there will always be a new person to come through and change the game

[Pero Ces]

I think rap is going to start moving away from being the top genre in youth. Theres always going to be dumb and good parts of a genre, overall I don't think its necessarily dumbing down.
