It's nigger noise. It's loud, boisterous, and flashy but ultimately just nigger noise.

Destruction is a creative act for a nigger. It's why their music, their art, their entire culture celebrates violence and destruction.

You claim that rap ages quickly, yet this album still sounds like it came from the future.
>>
>>74104297
Because hip hop tends to lend itself to electronic music, which is largely influenced by whatever's popular at the moment. As trends come and go, hiphop instrumentals come and go as well, which causes the whole 'aging' thing. Rock music mostly doesn't seem to age (unless you're listening to shitty hair metal) because it has more or less remained the same throughout the decades.
Aging is a sign of progress.

This, hip-hop as a genre evolves/changes faster than any other genre of music. Rock music at the end of the day is still the same old guitar shit in comparison. Hip-hop on the other hand, is very diverse because any/every sound can be used to create its instrumentals. That way it can adapt whatever sound is hip at the moment (like it did with the EDM trend this decade and RnB in the decades past.) There's a night and day difference between Rakim/Young Thug yet a band like Radiohead, despite being "revolutionary", sounds a lot like the big bands of the 60s/70s like Beatles or Pink Floyd or Can.

Ill reply because I feel like I know what the fedora'd fallacy genius was getting at.

Hip -Hop may have been around for as long as rock had been in the 90's, but if you only look to the number of years the genres been around, you're kind of implying that both genres have had the same amount of artistic progression in that time, which is not necessarily true.

Not saying I agree with him, just throwing it out there.

Actually all hip hop sounds the same. I can't even tell if it's lil Wayne, future, rich homie Quan, young thug or tpain trying to make a comeback. I would understand if you said "all punk bands sound the same" or "all glam rock bands sound the same" but saying all rock sounds the same is stupid. Honestly, think about it, can you really put an album like "news of the world - queen" next to "banned in DC - badbrains????" Both are amazing works of art but they're not anywhere similar. Hip hop has been on life support since about 2010. It's on it's last leg.

I believe this is unfortunately untrue. The current generation of young people are able to connect with recent hip-hop being made in the same way that people in the 60's connected with Dylan and his protest music and Nirvana in the early 90's. Hip-Hop has replaced rock, in the way that it is in the cultural forefront in america at the moment, and wont go anywhere until something completely new comes to divert the attention and start a new musical movement.
>>
What makes hiphop is the art of rhyme. These rhymes tend to be heavy linked to slang and cultural references. Things like money cars and clothes, which change every spring. What you do see though is the changing of rhyme scheme to make for a different sound, but the subject matter is always the same.

Come on Hip hop was still in its infancy in the 80's. Rock was there for at least 30 years. And it's the 90's hip hop that are still listenable because they brought huge advances in terms of flow, lyrical ability, charismatic mcs, and huge advances in terms of production.

>>74109871
Both bands work with a similar timbre set of guitars, bass, and drumset. They also work almost exclusively within pentatonic scale/their "shapes on guitar". Sounds need to exist exclusively in terms of chords and melodies. Now you'll be like "b-but Zappa shows how versatile rock music is cuz muh Brain Police" but that's not even rock it mystique concrete. Zappa's most well known moments are rarely even rock at all; rather it's usually some sorta early electronic, doo wop, or jazz fusion. That makes the comparison ever weaker.
>>
>>74108861
No it doesn't. The difference between DJ Kool Herc, Nas, Death Grips, and Young Thug are miles apart. Rock music will always be limited due to being guitar/drumset music that's almost always limited to pentatonic stuff with some variation from more experimental bands. Hip hop doesn't have theoretical limitations due to its ability to incorporate literally any sound it wants to be the overall sound.

Hip hop has a FAR wider timbre set than rock music ever did despite being much younger. Hip hop's has times it goes outside 4/4 as well, but it doesn't matter because even in 4/4 it offers far more rhythmic variety thus rhythmic interplay than rock ever did.

>>74110520
You're a pseud of the highest caliber. Try and be objective at least once

Rock music is infinitely more diverse than hip hop. Even though hip-hop is beat-based music, rock still manages to display more rhythmic variation. Like I said before, rock has assimilated basically ANYTHING from anywhere and did it in a creative, syncretic way. Hip-hop's incorporation of new timbres is always shallow because they lie inconspicuously in the very same 4/4 unimaginative structure.

>actual classical ever in rock music
Ever heard of Glenn Branca? First wave post-rock?
>>
>>74110503
It doesn't though. Really just only needs something slightly resembling a breakbeat or a rap over it as long as it doesn't just do something that's been exactly done before.
>>
>>74110668
Hip hop is perhaps THE single most constrained music genre there is. It almost never ever go past the same beats, tempo, harmonic structure (when there's even any discernible harmonic content lmao), lyrical structure, phrasing...it's just so utterly limited I can't believe this isn't bait. Sampling weird sounds on top of a simple beat doesn't mean breaking the mold, big guy. Even then, sampling has already been explored to greater extents by artists outside of hip hop many decades ago.

>>
>>74110654
Holy shit you're fucking stupid, like every pretentious rock fan ever.

>more rhythmic variation
Nope. Sure the back beat is often in 4/4, but it achieves rhythmic variation in rhythmic interplay between that, the MC, and various other parts. This is not something that rock has at all, and was only explored in jazz before that.
>rock assimilated
No, it took surface level crap from other genres. Like, this was literally the argument for King Crimson back in the day because it's not really classical influence, it's just pop structure with an extentded instrumental sections that neither develop like classical nor improvise like jazz while keeping to rock music's shallow progressions.
>always same 4/4 structure
Not true because the genre's not always in 4/4, but also not true because it has been willing to work with everything that can be used in a variety of ways, giving it the ability to create atmospheres rock can't feasibly make. Sure in the end it may not be as melodically or harmonically "intricate" as rock, but rock even in prog forms had been very basic in that realm meanwhile hip hop understands what it's good at and focuses on that.

It has more similarities to jazz, but even then the structures are much simpler with the instrumental parts not at the intricacy of actual jazz.
>>
>>74110745
Now you're just being ignorant considering I have the examples of Kool Herc, Nas, Death Grips, and Young Thug who are all wildly different from each other in style, sound, and rhythm.

>m-mug harmonic structure
You wouldn't be listening to rock music if you really gave a fuck. Rock music focuses on melody/harmony only to be inferior to much better classical/jazz in that realm. Hip hop understands it's specialization in percussive rhythmic interplay and does it really well.

Hip hop has ZERO melodic content, ZERO harmonic content and still lags behind rock music concerning rhythm - no, it almost never goes beyond 4/4 simple meter, it almost never employs polyrhythms or other "interplay". You sound very musically illiterate by affirming that
Hip hop's playground is only timbre, and even there they're light years behind. Like I said, their so called progress are only the latest shiny production tool, almost never real, substantial usage of far out timbral content. Rock music had perpassed basically anything timbre-wise by the 90s.

>>74111036
>Now you're just being ignorant considering I have the examples of Kool Herc, Nas, Death Grips, and Young Thug who are all wildly different from each other in style, sound, and rhythm.
>style, sound and rhythm
Their rhythm is the same as all hip-hop. What do you mean by style? All the shit that influenced Death Grips and Nas was already explored a billion times by rock acts.

And no, I'm not a fucking rockist. In fact, I barely listen to rock music nowadays. Your posts are so musically illiterate I just felt compelled to argue

>>74111059
John Oswald, the dozens of names in the avant-garde tradition, dub pioneers...they all excelled in sampling before hip-hop was even a thing; the only barrier between them and the sound you hear nowadays is technological. Hip-hop did literally nothing new music-wise. Educate yourself.

Hip-hop music is mostly created by amateur musicians with no formal education (so is rock, if we are talking about absolute majorities, but rock happened to entice a few virtuosos or people that understand composition). It's no surprise its musical content is very primitive...it's music that's simple to create, play live and disseminate. People like simple music

I don't feel threatened, but you make yourself sound so superior that there's no point discussing with you.

Because it's garbage music. It's that simple. A rap artist is only as relevant as the hype surrounding them. When the hype dies, they go away. The only difference between some nobody freestyling in his bedroom and a successful rapper making millions is a marketable persona. Both are equally talentless, one of them just got lucky. Great music endures not because it used to be popular once, but because the prowess and ability of the musician is evident in their composition.

It's the reason why 100 years from now people will still be blown away by the music of Beethoven, while rap will merely be a forgettable curiosity, much like disco, a product of a period that we look back on with bemused humor thinking "People used to listen to THAT?".
>>
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O0MgmH-RY9c

Zomby isn't a virtuoso. Hell, he was basically a bedroom producer when this song was created, and yet he DARED do something creative with music theory and it worked.
Why do hip-hop producers only think about their production toys and timbre? Why do they stick to the very same? Do they lack balls or brains?
>>
>>74111163
>zero melodic/harmonic content
Not always. Kendrick's "u" has free jazz inspired bits that are more melodically complex than anything in rock music. But again, it's not about melodic content with hip hop, and rock's melodic content is too limited to be worth listening to.
>it never employs polyrhythms
This is objectively false in all cases but where the rappers flow follows exactly the backing arrangement. The rapper, the rhythm section, and the backing arrangement all often very wildly different rhythms.
>musically illiterate
I didn't say that hip hop has no polyrhythms when that's literally what the genre specializes in.
>Rock music had surpassed timbrewise by 90s
No it didn't. It's stuck to way too many instrument related limitations. Like, fuck dude there's a reason the total serialist masterpiece is an electronically made work like Kontakte, not your shitty as Royal Trux.
>the rhythm is same as in all hip hop
Again, objectively not true. Herc's dub funk sounding style, boom bap, breakcore inspired percussion, and trap's bass drone hi hat rhythms are all totally different. Fucking listen to the music you mong.
>Oswald
>dub pioneers
And not a single one of them did sampling the way hip hop did. If you have actually listened to Oswald's record Plunderphonics, you would know that samples are played straight forward with a dignified beginning and end point. If you had actually listened to dub artists, you would know that their sampling innovations are based in usually the same backing arrangement as the original being played but with increased bass presence, more erratic percussion sections, and spatial vocal cuts for fading vocals. None of it is on the surgical level of what the artists I mentioned earlier did in hip hop where they surgically cut samples to leave small spaces for other surgically cut samples. It's also very telling that you have to move the discussion outside of rock to even make a point.

Actually LISTEN to the stuff being discussed.

>Kendrick's "u" has free jazz inspired bits that are more melodically complex than anything in rock music
Literally stopped reading there. You can't be serious

>>74112240
you don't actually know what a polyrhythm is...
>>
>>74112280
It does though. Rock music's nowhere near as melodically super complex as anyone makes it out to be. Don't even reference progressive "I look cool but I stay in the same old keys every other rock music does" rock or Frank "I can't solo outside the pentatonic shapes on a guitar" Zappa for this either because you will prove how little you know then.

Dude even the most basic bitch trap song has this when the hi hats play in triplets and the rapper is doing duplets along with them.

80's and 90's rap aged well
only 00's rap aged like shit but it was probabbly shit in the first place
>>
>>74112521
Triplets and duplets playing together is literally one of the most simple and well known examples of polyrhythms. I never said tuplets themselves are polyrhythm. Are you intentionally acting retarded now?

Because of how heavily synthesized and trend based much of the music is just in the first decade of the 21st century there were several competing styles like the Neptunes' RnB influenced ones, Dre's hardcore G-funk, Kanye and No ID's sample based beats, and at the tail end more popular EDM influenced beats. And this is just the entry level stuff, you also had underground producers like EL-P or MF DOOM with completely unique styles of production.
Sample based beats will almost always age better, I think.

Hip Hop just isnt very good as pure music. Kanye isnt a real international celebrity in the same way rock and pop musicians from the 60s to the 90s were.
You dont need to understand English to enjoy the Beatles or Pynk Floyd, but if you know no English, Hip Hop is just people talking fast in a language you dont know over music almost completely lacking in melody and harmony.
You can travel through East Asia or South America, and people dont know who Kanye is while there are many radios playing constantly 80s pop music like Simple Minds Dont You Forget About Me or Whitesnake's Is this Love, and many other radios playing "classic rock", a category that now includes 90s grunge and alternative rock.

That seems a bit plebby, classical composers were aware of music common people played in places like taberns or family meetings. And sometimes incorporated influences, or even motifs, from popular, folk, local music. I can think of Scarlatti and Mahler doing that right now.

This is rather disingenuous because

1. Hip hop isn't based on lyricism, but rhythmic flow.
2. Those countries have very popular hip hop artists of their own. Reggaeton for example is literally a genre based on hip hop. In India, the most popular pop artist is Badshah, a rapper.
3. Musical celebrity/rockstar culture is very different today from what it once used to be. The mystique isn't there thanks to globalization and the internet.

Rap from the 80s is for the most part pretty corny going back to listen to it, but a ton of 90s and 2000s shit still holds up really well. What albums made you think it ages badly?

hip hop is the stealing of other peoples music, ruining it, reshaping it, and using it as a platform for your vanity. basically, hip hop is evil, so therefore it can only exist briefly and then die. it cannot be timeless.

also fuck capcha

Dvorak is pretty much "classical composer gets really inspired by folk music" as a whole.

>genre has been largely stagnant since its inception
I can tell you have listened to almost no hip hop. If you want a nice tour through the evolution to hip hop listen to:
1. Run DMC - Raising Hell
2. Eric B and Rakim - Paid in Full
3. Beastie Boys - Paul's Boutique
4. NWA - Straight Outta Compton
5. Dr. Dre - The Chronic
6. Wu Tang Clan - Enter the 36 Chambers
7. Nas - Illmatic
8. Mobb Deep - The Infamous
9. 2pac - All Eyez on Me
10. Notorious BIG - Life After Death
11. Outkast - Aquemini
12. Eminem - The Marshal Mathers LP
13. Lil Wayne - Tha Carter III
14. Kendrick Lamar - To Pimp a Butterfly
You can see how hip hop evolves from simple rhymes over simple beats to a sample collage style, then onto more complex rhymes and flows, gangsta rap, then the g funk era of Dr. Dre, then the east coast renaissance, then the age of 2pac and biggie, then eminem, the bling era, and finally today. To say that the genre has been stagnant is simply wrong.

nobody actually still listens to these albums (Shook Ones is probably the only thing still in rotation)
