Hip-Hop is literally mainstream culture.

I fucking hope not. He's trash

this

his last album was like 0% hip-hop, and most of his hip-hop wasn't 100% hip-hop. he always put unique-ish stuff in there.

When the fuck was Childish Gambino punk? Meme rap for rich college kids is not punk

>>73252446
His last album was just funk/r&b.
>>73252373
It's so infuriating that he would say this. He didn't even provide anything new to the table regarding hip hop. Now he's walking around spouting off that it was punk. Yikes.

This, like Lil Uzi saying that he's rock and roll, and that GG Allin inspired him and his live shows.

"As much as Redbone is a punk song because it's a gospel song that's on the radio,... there's only so far you can go before you are the radio." quote from him

Why do people keep acting like "punk" was some kind of "attitude" or "lifestyle" or whatever the fuck?

It's a very specific style of music. It always has been.

>>73252596
It was an attitude or lifestyle. If you weren't some nihilistic anarchist dude wearing leather, you weren't a punk. People who didn't have those lifestyles/attitudes but still made "punk" music that sounded like punk music were either "Post" or "Proto" punk, depending on where they came before punk's success.

The thing is, even IF it was this attitude or whatever, he doesn't even fit into that stereotype. He's rich and takes showers and doesn't give a fuck about the government other than the occasional comment he makes about it for an ego stroke. He thinks he has punk influences maybe because he rapped a little angry here and there?

At this point hip-hop related music is literally lumped in with hip-hop you fucking idiot.
So that means nu-disco,funk pop, r&b,soul, and hip-hop are all the huge things right now.
