I just got cancer from this this is the worst decade in

Says you

>>74117197
well yeah most decades won't look good if you look at what RYM votes to the top of them

>>74117216
80s and 70s look good, 90s and 00s look ok

10s look like pure AIDS

>>74117241
good thing there are more than 6 albums released the past 7 years

>>74117197
All those albums are pretty good, worst is TPAB which is still a 7/10

>>74117279
You have the taste of an animal

>>74117197

>>74117298
How do you exclude a genre?

>>74117290
That's a little harsh

>>74117298
Then there's not a single album with a 5-star rating average
Rap is trash but if there is not a single album charting higher than there must be something wrong

>>74117388
>5-star rating average
What? Nothing with enough votes to make it on the charts would ever average a 5.

I think it's because no matter what peoples taste is, most people like to pretend they like rap because pretending to like nigger shit makes you seem like an intelligent tolerant person

So that's why these albums are rated high and have the most ratings

>>74117455

>>74117550
how do you remove a genre?

nu males really took over music

Okay /mu/, tell me why rap is "bad". "It takes no skill" is not a valid answer. "It promotes degeneracy" is not a valid answer. "It's nigger music" is not a valid answer. "The Jews are using it to brainwash people" is not a valid answer. "Millennials only pretend to like it because they're SJW cucks who want to pretend to be tolerant" is not a valid answer.

at least kyuss made it in there

>>74117585
tell me why x is bad
don't use any of the reasons x is bad

btw, it's not about skill but the result, the result sounds like shit. the instrumental part of it is a primtiive beat that repeats for most of the song, and the vocal part of it is literal niggers speaking about nonsense in ebonics

there's no excuse to like this or consider it even 10% of the quality of actual musical releases

>>74117585
I like Kanye and sometimes Kendrick. Hip hop is just very local, about black people's struggles, I just don't care to listen to it. And not enough emphasis on music but lyrics - and 95% of them are horrible lyricists

>>74117623

also, I like how whenver a nigger says anything in rap that isn't just "fuck bitches ooga booga drugs money" but maybe the nigger says "global warming is bad" or "systemic racism and misogyny" then suddenly the nigger is a fucking philosopher king

>>74117656
I didn't say it takes no skill you subhuman retard
that was literally part of the point, that it doesn't matter what "skill" it takes when the result is what it is

"skill" doesn't mean anything, you can remove that reason

>>74117656
>everyone disagreeing with me is doing it to be contrarian
yeah, because posting a chart and just saying it's cancer with a bunch of people going "HURR DURR NIGGER MUSIC" is not cancer at all
people itt are being contrarian, there's no denying that. posting a chart of popular albums and just shitting on it with very basic insults is not a healthy way to discuss music. there's pretty much zero actual music discussion in this thread

What would be YOUR top 3, op ?

>>74117630
If you think any of the reasons I called invalid are actual reasons why rap is bad, I need you to do one of three things
1. Get off of /pol/ or 4chan for 5 fucking minutes, maybe go for a walk or something idk.
2. Go back to /pol/ where while you won't improve as a person you'll at least be contained and nobody else will have to deal with your total idiocy.
3. Fucking neck yourself.

>>74117807
Your reasons for hating rap have literally nothing to do with the music itself and everything to do with /pol/ virtue signalling. The fact that you can't find anything wrong with rap other than niggers is proof of that.

If somebody critiques hip hop but listens to metal their opinion is instantly deemed worthless.

simply ebin, my friend

The argument in this topic is like both participants are the strawman the other person would create

Hip-hop is the only genre really where new things are happening right now and big statements are being made, every other genre's 'bests' right now are either quirky asides or simply up to standard. There were some interesting things happening in metal for awhile (the 00s) but I think the heyday is over. Electronic music is always ahead of the curve but you don't have to tell anyone about it, we all know, but it's also niche appeal unless it's EDM, and dance music doesn't lend itself to album formats that well.

hip-hop is having a "classic rock" moment right now. one day these albums are all going to be cliches

Repetition can work, but when the thing that's repeating is a 4 second loop of a basic beat, there's no quality to be found

hip hop is extremely regressive in any musical sense, and is reinforced by the fact it's literal niggers speaking in ebonics over it

>>74118174
So you're argument is that it's bad because it uses a looping beat and because black people made it and you think anything made by black people is inherently regressive?

To be honest I'd be 100% okay with hip hop lyrics if they were ironic. But these people are just legitimately retarded.

>>74117585

The lyrics are always really bad. The language is always high school level or less. The subject matter is always the same; it's either a braggadocio rap or about growing up in the streets. Few rappers ever try to venture out and they deserve due respect for it,but what they do is hardly comparable to what other genre musicians have been writting and talking about for decades before. The instrumentals in rap music are without contest the most primitive and mediocre of any genre including bubblegum pop music. Rap is easily replicable. Anyone schumck can be a rapper and if you look at the average caliber of mind in the rap game you'd concur.

what about such top 3 ?

1. David Bowie
2. Kanye West My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy
3. Deerhunter Halcyon Digest

Those genres are music
Hip hop is hardly music, and is full of nigger ebonics

Also, it's highly flawed to say niggers invented rock.

Btw, any instruments niggers "invented" music on are instruments no niggers in africa ever made or had access to, until they were brought to the west. The only musical thing that africa brought to the west is polyrhythms.

I've listened to zero of those albums. Should I care for any of them?

>>74119738
TPAB is overrated af, GKMC and DAMN are both far better
MBDTF is pop rap at its best, gets kinda proggy at times
GKMC is a great album that occasionally lets its concept get in the way of the actual music. the highlights are fucking masterful
Blackstar is Bowie's best album since Heroes
Carrie & Lowell is the most overrated indie folk album of the decade. just listen to fleet foxes instead.
The Seer is god-tier post-rock on the level of GYBE's best work

these are all the songs on to pimp a butterfly

TPAB: One of the best albums of the decade. Really took the concept of real instruments and complex studio effects coming together to the next level, creating production honestly far more dense than baby ass Kanye. Kendrick's got a wide variety of delivery/flow styles that most rappers can't do on a single record. The album especially on the second half starts to bring in many poly-rhythms both from the arrangements and the raps.

All you people jealous that you aren't black after a black person made such a masterpiece. Sorry, whitey alt-righty, but you are starting to only get more irrelevant as you are unable to pick up on the subtleties of one of the new generation GOAT albums. Black power making whiteys ADHD as fuck. Git gud, faggots.

>>74119959
and yet you don't mention the fact that the album is unable to justify its length and is abound with lame hooks and generally colorless production.

thankfully we did get masterpieces from kenny tho. GKMC and DAMN.

>>74119781

wow thank you my boy for explaining those magnificent pieces of art~~! I know see that he's not just a stupid rap PERSON OF COLOR, but i now see him as the philosopher, as a creator... wow

>>74120020
>>74119781
TPAB is far more dense in production than MBDTF and GKMC while Kendrick's sheer variety in flow/delivery is far more diverse than both those records (yes, even with all those guests on MBDTF, he's that diverse on it.) It's a much tougher record to digest compared to GMKC and MBDTF, but it's infinitely better. The fact that /mu/ is filled with people who think otherwise really show how little the users here are able to pay attention to individual details in music.

>>74120056
diversity does not necessarily equal quality

>>74120113
It does in this case where Kendrick does tiny little things like changing how he says boo boo each time in each track. Or his fluctuating flow on u. Or How Much A Dollar Costs constant flow weaving from its polyrhythms. All this stuff gives the music a kind of character and emotion that wouldn't be there otherwise. It's the one record where Kendrick's not just being himself, but other characters as well by using his diversity of flow/delivery.

>>74120056
The instrumentals are mostly boring nu-jazz. Yes his diversity in flows is amazing, but as someone who isn't interested in the subject matter and doesn't like the more serious side of hip-hop in general, the album really isn't interesting.

>>74120193
>The instrumentals are mostly boring nu-jazz
Wtf no they aren't? King Kunta, Alright, etc. aren't nu-jazz, and a track like U isn't even usual nu-jazz nor is it boring due to its polyphony and free jazz influence not common in nu-jazz.
>someone who isn't interested in the subject matter
Not sure how someone can't get into subjects related to self-love/self-hate, but it's your opinion so w/e

>>74119959
>>74120056
Lol you're throwing around so many weasel words and shit. Why does it matter that he uses "real instruments" and "wide variety of delivery"? Why do you think the presence or lack of polyrhythms dictates the quality of a song?

No black person I've met seriously listens to the songs on To Pimp a Butterfly. It's an album stuck in a bubble of white people on the internet. All praise for it exists on the probably the whitest corner of the internet, far from any resemblance of black power.

>>74120241
I kinda forgot that side of the album, I like King Kunta but Alright is really meh imo, and the free jazz influence in For Free? and U is very unique, other than that it's really samey imo.
Also I feel like self-love/self-hate is more of an underline or recuring theme but overall it's centered in more political messages and black culture, so I don't really connect to it.

>>74117585
>"It takes no skill" is not a valid answer. "It promotes degeneracy" is not a valid answer. "It's nigger music" is not a valid answer. "The Jews are using it to brainwash people" is not a valid answer. "Millennials only pretend to like it because they're SJW cucks who want to pretend to be tolerant" is not a valid answer.

this is not a valid argument

>>74120346
>Why does it matter that he uses "real instruments"
Because the way the album works with combining aspects of real instrumentation and sophisticated production is fresh? It's not something that has been done the way this album does it. The idea's fresh; innovative.
and "wide variety of delivery"?
>It does in this case where Kendrick does tiny little things like changing how he says boo boo each time in each track. Or his fluctuating flow on u.

It's the one record where Kendrick's not just being himself, but other characters as well by using his diversity of flow/delivery.
>Why do you think the presence or lack of polyrhythms dictates the quality of a song?
Because it helps make a track more engaging due to higher complexity and increased replay value?

>No black person I've met seriously listens to the songs on To Pimp a Butterfly. It's an album stuck in a bubble of white people on the internet. All praise for it exists on the probably the whitest corner of the internet, far from any resemblance of black power.
No talk about anything musical. Just strict anecdotal evidence. None of this matters to me or you. What matters is the music itself.

>>74120439
>no u
he isn't trying to make an argument

>>74119939
>He talks from the perspective of a super insecure young black man who is super big on black pride and gets very political about racism, but does self-destructive shit that his harmful to the very culture he puts up.
Yeah and that person's name is Kendrick Lamar.

>>74120411
>other than that it's really samey imo.
I personallythink otherwise like the last few tracks becoming increasingly polyrhythmic to create further interest. Even songs done in a same style, like For Free/U's free jazz influence, or King Kunta/I's funk influence, sound totally different from one another. You got Flying Lotus on Wesley's Theory, and in typical FL style sounds simple but has more to it the harder a person listens. Complexion's closer to RnB with its smooth feel. Blacker The Berry's boom bap approach. And even a more mainstream style on Alright. The album's far more all over the place compared to say...GKMC where all the tracks are more similar in production style where it's quintessential mainstream style beats.
>Also I feel like self-love/self-hate is more of an underline or recuring theme but overall it's centered in more political messages and black culture, so I don't really connect to it.
Kinda confused what you mean here. You said that it's an underlying theme, meaning that it forms the basis of the record (which it does) but then contradict when saying it's centered around political messages and black culture? 10 of the 16 tracks are in direct reference to he himself and not anything else.

>>74120346
>whitey alt righty getting triggered by black power

I'm pretty sure it's the same faggot defending rap every time, their writing style is similar across multiple posts.

Anyways, reminder that rap is not good music.

>>74120451
Well the anecdotal evidence was a response to one of the comments about black power, but w/e. I can't tell if if there's two separate posters or some autist is samefagging >>74120649

People never make arguments against rap, all they know how to do is fire overused phrases they'd never say in real life.

I fucking hate this board.

>It does in this case where Kendrick does tiny little things like changing how he says boo boo each time in each track.

HAHAHHAHAHAHHA

HOLY FUCK THIS IS WHAT NIGGER-HOP IS? HOLY FUCK WHITE PEOPLE DESERVE TO BE WIPED OUT IF THIS IS WHAT THEY LIKE

>>74120961
I argue like that in real life. Rap is regressive trash music, and it DOES include ebonics 99% of the time.

Niggers made good music in the past, rap isn't it.

>>74118097
>hip-hop is having a "classic rock" moment right now. one day these albums are all going to be cliches
Makes sense, most popular hip hop sounds the same.

>>74120950
This board is called /mu/. It is about music. Did you not realize that?

>>74121000
I'm talking about subhumans making music

>>74120990

It does include ebonics - you're acting like that's a bad thing somehow? Do you normally check your lyrics for grammar and discount it if they use it 'wrong?'

>>74121010

Well, at the very least you're acknowledging that hip-hop is music for once.

>>74121015
I don't like subhuman low intelligence culture infecting my music.

>>74117197
how the fuck is a tpab above mbdtf?
rym is a fucking joke

>>74121032
Just like taking a shit and taking a pic of it is "art"

>>74121048

You can make the argument that the content in the lyrics is trashy, but how is the use of ebonics itself indicative of low intelligence?

>>74120056
Anyone who thinks TPAB is better than MBDTF is retarded

>>74121057

If a shit-ton of people are listening to it and calling it music, then it's music.

If a shit-ton of people are looking at something and calling it art, then it's art.

That's how things work. That's how words are given defintions, dumbass.

>>74117630
>btw, it's not about skill but the result, the result sounds like shit. the instrumental part of it is a primtiive beat that repeats for most of the song, and the vocal part of it is literal niggers speaking about nonsense in ebonics

rock music is shitty because it's just loops of primitive riffs that keep repeating, and the vocal part of it is dumb crackers singing about vapid dumb shit

See I can do it too

>>74121124
>If a shit-ton of people are listening to it and calling it music, then it's music.

imagine being this stupid

>>74121138
Great argument. So who decides what is and isn't art or music? Let me hear it.

>>74121107
It is though. None of the rappers on MBDTF come close to Kendrick, MBDTF has far more simplistic rhythms, it also doesn't match up to the melodic content of TPAB when TPAB does get melodic (eg. the free jazz polyphony sections), and MBDTF ends up with even less layered production due to shitty mixing thanks to Rick Rubin.

MBDTF is just very surface level pretty pop rap.

Traditionalism is hardly a cancer, it's not spreading

>>74120411
I never saw it that way personally. It's an album deeply rooted in black culture, yeah, but more than that it's an album deeply rooted in Kendrick himself coming to terms with how the media and pop culture have cemented him as "the black guy who raps about social issues".
