So a genre is dead because it isn't he same way it was 15/20 years ago? Why do people have their minds set to believe that things are SUPPOSED to stay the same forever? Rap as it once was is no longer, but to call the whole genre dead is unfair to today's artists and anyone else that works in the industry.

there is still good rap out.....but the genre is dominated by white-endorsed "blackness" packaged for suburban (mostly white) consumption...
its no longer music made by us, for us....
if soulja boy came out pre-cash money era, he would have been clowned and forgotten about
that southern "independent" movement really hurt the skill of rap.....or rather the audience's expectation of skill from rap.
there are still rappers rapping well, but they're few, far in between, and not marketed....
im not about to go into a whole debate about rap
but when kids are arguing the talent and skill of lil b, its safe to say rap is dead.
i look at lil b as an even more witty weird al yankovich type....
like a living parody of rap.....it DOES entertain me....and that's fine....its fine to be entertained...
the tim and eric awesome show is wildly entertaining...because its so awful
thats how lil b entertains me...its laughably awful....
just because a man is an entertainer and entertains doesnt mean hes a talented rapper...i think hes a much more talented comedian than rapper...
look, bruh, ive heard enough lil b....i don't need to download his 400th mixtape....
