Why is it all rap music?

it was the popular, dominant genre of the 2010s for very obvious reasons. let me know if you need me to explain why the sun rises in the morning too

>>127408380 (OP)
It's Fantano what did you expect?

>>127408459
90% of the audience for the OP albums was rich sheltered white liberal Millenials. Completely irrelevant outside that one narrow demographic.

>>127408459
>for very obvious reasons
What reasons?

>>127408477
>Completely irrelevant outside that one narrow demographic.
this is really true especially if you put your hands over your ears and shut your eyes while shouting LALALALALALALA

>>127408488
blaks don't listen to this corny shit

>>127408483
Late 2010s were a terrible time for Pop music as most early 2010s pop artists had nothing new to offer and had a terrible hit rate for aging well as most popular music with mass market appeal does. rock was so dead in the mainstream that the only forces around were underground, indie bands that old /mu/ thrived off of, but even that well was drying up as previous arbiters of taste making like Pitchfork were bought up and fading in relevance. Rap music filled the void for rock AND pop's cultural importance as an art form. That is largely following the path that 2000s pop music did, where only a select few are still making music people care about by both feeling important and universal.

What seems to have largely taken its place is again pop music, but pop music that is finding its footing as post-Lorde emotional pop, but with even more focus on nostalgia

I checked and his most watched non-rap video is ranking of Radiohead albums which is 20th

His most watched non-rap review is Nostalgia Critic's The Wall lmao

>Rap music filled the void for rock AND pop's cultural importance as an art form
that's not real rap it's pop rap slop for middle class white people. no niggaz be bumping this shit in the hood.

>>127408560
it could be literally anything from the most popular stuff to indie drill mixtapes. still filled the void

>>127408477
>90% of the audience for the OP albums was rich sheltered white liberal Millenials. Completely irrelevant outside that one narrow demographic.
>the demo that had most of the money/cultural/political pull in the last decade was irrelevant
that's quite a stretch of an argument.

>>127408585
>it could be literally anything from the most popular stuff to indie drill mixtapes. still filled the void

?

>>127408560
I'm not even sure white people actually listen to it. Like when you go in a store all you hear is 80s music. If it was back in the 80s you would have fully assumed you'd hear current releases played not stuff from the 50s.

>>127408380 (OP)
We need to commission 20+ gay rapists to run train on Fantano but he'd just enjoy it so it'd be pointless

>>127408459
>>127408509
Rap was being astroturfed since white music and culture was seen as lame and boring

See how people here negatively call some muisc "whitest shit ever"

>>127408599
if you're a young kid in America in the 2010s, the most urgent music is rap, indeterminate of which level of popularity you find it at. i'm not sure what's hard to grasp

>>127408616
"white music and culture" had become provably lame and boring, if you're mad at that, be mad at the corporations that pushed shit like nickelback and imagine dragons as the future of rock music. you're not mad at race, you're mad at money

>>127408599
dunno what he's going on about but the peak of HH was the 90s i don't think that's ever been in dispute

There was also indie rock

>>127408616
>>127408627
The dominance of rap "music" in western culture is directly attributable to these faggots. They killed white musical culture.

Music and culture has stopped evolving after the 90s, nothing truly new and innovative has come out this century

>>127408643
yeah i mentioned that here
>>127408509
it was all but dead by the end of the 2010s as the big money outlets abandoned it as the internet became more consolidated

>>127408655
very very stupid from even the bad-faith /pol/brained targeted influence campaign place you're coming from, kurt cobain was a notorious music snob who worshiped music that explicitly appealed to white music dorks

>>127408656
not true but i don't blame you if you come to this conclusion after only having consumed music content in the 2020s

>>127408820
Spewing government-approved propaganda was fine between 1945 and 2024, but it's bad now during the 99% fake Trump blip? You cannot be this fucking stupid.
>>127408830
This is seriously embarrassing.

DEI and trannies never actually existed in the first place outside Newsmax memes.

>>127408850
Well it does exist when you praise it and say how important it is. But when right-wingers complain about it, then it stops existing.

>>127408848
>Spewing government-approved propaganda was fine between 1945 and 2024, but it's bad now during the 99% fake Trump blip?
yes. Government propaganda that encourages young people to experiment and have sex is much better than propaganda that turns them into fuckin lame wahhh-machine keyboard warriors that can't get a girlfriend. At least then I'd be faced with someone who knows what good art looks like instead of the current shit-heap of endlessly rage-baited AI gooning failchildren

When it comes to leftoids you can never know if they're THAT fucking stupid or just lying to you.

>>127408905
Go look through the 4chan archives and see if you had anywhere near the amount of people slobbering screeching about trannies in 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, etc. Trannies got launched into the public consciousness when NC tried to ban them from bathrooms. Even then, the backlash to that ban wasn't seen as a "pro-trans" thing, but a "pro-gay" thing. Most people didn't care about trannies whatsoever until the mid-20teens at the earliest when Trump needed something to whip up the base. They threw you some red meat and you swallowed it whole and you mistook it for a real, legitimate, pressing social issue LUL

>>127408887
You are a leftist. That makes you a tranny, cuck, beta, whatever other that same insult has morphed into over the years. Again, I don't know if you don't understand this fact, or if you do understand it and are lying to me.

>>127408929
Are you one of those people who thinks there's eleventy trillion illegals in the United States? Lmao do you think that Biden had a "STOP ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION" button on his desk that he just refused to press? Are you 19 years old?
>>127408380 (OP)
Rap's the most popular and influential genre right now and has been for some time

>>127408941
Yes Anon, your extreme pants shitting rage whenever it's brought up really proves how unimportant you think it is. AGAIN, are you actually this stupid, or do you think we are this stupid? I don't know.

>>127408941
I mean it does seem that in 2012 they hadn't started state funded tranny agitprop yet.

>>127408967
in 2011-12 you still had traditionally macho straight guy party/sex hits like Party Rockin' and Animals in the top 10. it was quite dramatic how fast anything of that nature disappeared overnight in mid-decade

>>127408952
I think you think you're continuing an argument with someone else, but I am not that person, I'm a different person. Nobody was talking about trannies in this thread until you people started screeching about them like you always do LOL
>>127408967
>state funded tranny agitprop
kek. But think about this for a second; why not? If trannies are so clearly leftist, and trannies so badly want to trans kids and molest women and whatever, why did they all of a sudden decide to do so in 2016? Why not get Obama to fund some tranny agitprop in 2012? It can't be because there weren't any trannies before 2016, that isn't true. NC HB2 fiasco was in 2016, there was a reality TV show host running for president around the same time, he saw a story and knew he could make hay with it, and now here we are

>>127408980
You seem extremely upset and angry.

>>127409000
it wasn't until after Obama got reelected that the left absolutely took the gloves off because they assumed they'd won forever and nothing could stop them now

He right though. No blacks be bumping Kendrick or JPEGMafia.

>>127408617
Then why did it not produce any good songs?

>>127408483
A general retardification of the general population which coincidentally coincides with certain demographic trends.

>>127409184
>blacks aren't listening to it
Correct, the smaller demographic that already doesn't pay for the music they do listen to doesn't drive the industry trends. Hence my post. Let me know if you need this broken down further. I might even be able to find some pictures to help you understand.

if that doesnt tell you how godawful fantano's fanbase is (and also VERY TELLING on what they lean towards in seeing from him) then i dont know what does. radiohead represents his retarded rym and basic music """snob""" part of the fanbase and then nostalgia critic represents how fanbase also sees him as a meme and likes to see him review garbage.
he's doomed in every sense of his worth; he is seen as a meme and only cared for in his number system, he has a fanbase of annoying redditors who see him as a god and always right and he is beyond annoying as a person himself. he doesn't deserve death but no one should really care for his opinions and to act as if he wasn't responsible for all this shit would be lying to yourself.

3 Jews who conspired to make White men look uncool and dorky.

>>127408380 (OP)
Americans are spiritual niggers, black or not. It's simply their entire "culture".

>>127408380 (OP)
All Millennials are forever stuck in the 2010s.

because since social media where everyone has tried to one-up each other on who can be the most virtuous while putting in the least amount of genuine effort in being virtuous (i.e. saying "current year" shit, posting black squares, having virtuous social media profile headers etc) all pop culture has basically become black culture packaged for white people, since white people are aware of how uncool it is to be white so they adopt everything black (the music, the hairstyles i.e. broccoli cut which is meant to mimic african hair, the language i.e. ebonics, use of bro every other word, use of n word in both a complimentary and pejorative manner, with other white people like they are themselves black).

also all you need to make a shitty rap track is yourself and a computer; you don't need to actually make real life friends and get a band together. so more rap is going to be made.

>>127408380 (OP)
Rap is easy to review. If the lyrics are good, album's good. If they're bad, album's bad.

this hasn't been true for awhile
vibe / singles rap (trap) killed the idea of lyricism in hip-hop.
Fantano especially succumbs to this idea and overlooks shitty rappers if he likes the production (or feels they're "important" enough to feel forced into liking).
