How did black people regress so much in music?
Jazz, Blues, Soul, Funk etc. were really good music styles, but Hip Hop is fucking awful.

It was the listeners and audience that regressed.

>OH MASSA IMA PICK THAT COTTON
>OH MASSA IMA PICK IT GOOOOD

Why can't black people create lyrics like this anymore? It's all about fast cars and sex and drugs.

Black people aren't some monolithic whole. You could ask the same thing about white people making pop punk after making classical music and it'd be just as dumb.
There are still creative, skilled, emotive and intelligent black people making music of the same calibre as Bird and Coltrane. They're just not in the mainstream and those people weren't, for the most part, ever in the mainstream to begin with. The reason they've become so well known is that time has allowed critical analysis and acclaim to increase their notoriety.

Bad comparison. You're looking back at a century of music, hand-picking some exceptional examples (mostly curated by critics and scholars), and comparing it to a much smaller, less curated selection of contemporary music.

Now add in the nostalgia and historical reinforcement that's "legitimized" those genres from a critical perspective. Not only is it good, it's "important" and "influential."

No one's regressed or progressed.You're just unable to see the blinders around your eyes setting your tastes in a particular direction. There's a lot of good stuff happening right now, and there's also a ton of complete garbage from the past.

Eric Harland, Jack DeJohnette, Gregory Porter, Wayne Shorter, Brian Blade, Jeff Parker, Wadada Leo Smith and the Marsalis family in general come to mind as popular people who've all done some really fantastic stuff in the last 5 years or so.
That's talking about music on a much wider scale though. Go to jazz festivals, attend concerts. If you're near anywhere with a big enough jazz club, you'll see plenty of really talented guys pass through there who won't get the publicity of some of those I listed.
