>Conscious hip-hop
I goddamn hate this label
With what other genre do you see people labeling the content as being "conscious"? You don't because that's just a given. Even with the most depraved acts of rock it's still at least genuine and true to itself. Calling something "conscious" as a label just trivializes it. It implies that the most thoughtless and id-inspired hip-hop acts aren't genuine. And what, because it talks about real-world things that makes it "conscious"? That just implies that real life is the only thing that's worth a shit, which with music is the last thing that should be a gold standard.
I get that having a designation as being more intentional/focused has merit, especially in a genre that has a focus largely on the opposite, but this kind of crap is the stuff that will just perpetuate people labeling themselves as being "woke" and other retarded buzzwords.

It's a microaggression. The question is whether you give a shit about microaggressions.
