D

after listening to 3000 something, when kast drops, or just 3000, hip hop will redeem itself.

Grade: F
Reason: Zero pride in lyricism

[young turbo]

ill give it a L

 

[diceloveme]

Im giving it a B+ with Jay album dropped, a fire cam mixtape and a few other honorable mention things dropping who could it possibly be as bad as yall makingit seem

 

[clarkkent415]

I give it a C+.

Even though we have to sift through a lot of wack!#!% right now it's easy to find the gold.

Jay, Kanye, and some have dropped gems this year.

We still have albums coming out from...

Lupe
Beanie Sigel
Clipse (maybe not this year)
Joe Budden
Dr. Dre (not this year)
Jadakiss (maybe not this year)
Nas

It will pick up again... People haven't been buying "ringtone" rappers albums and hopefully they will start buying quality albums.

somewhere around a c and a D, it aint dead,a couple of good artists but most is wack.

 

[btllovesjays]

I'd give it a C to a C-

 

[thagreatj]

i would give it an B.
I got AG, i can put on some Joe budden, a lil Ye here or there, my older music. im cool. im gettin the music i want.

Yea i'd give it a B. The year isn't over and we know the hottest releases drop in the 4th quarter around November/December. Graduation, FindingForever, American Gangster and Underground Kingz held it down this year. We still got an album from Beans comin'.

D
Reason: too many commercial rappers with no compelling lyrics

Only Album I'm listening to is American Gangsta, The Graduation, and Ultimate Victory

 

[rocyaice]

Forgot about Ultimate Victory. Another hot record.
