These Artists Are Ushering Hip-Hop Into a New Era (JPEGMAFIA, Yeat, Westside Gunn, Travis Scott) my twitter - / dupleee my discord - / discord Thank you for watching and have a great day!
think about why that is though? the labels want to make money so they push the acts that do that for them.. the audience is killing the quality of hip hop with their wallets
Rap has hit that 80's hair metal moment is about the end of it entering the grunge or stripped Era that's becoming really niche and on the verge from exiting the billboard in a decade or so, it'll be alt pop type shit
The thing is the industry is glorifying less talent and more trendy productions as time goes on. Honestly man producers should be getting more credit than rappers these days.
@@ScottThePisces I can definitely blame the industry they only care about money and not the art they also seem to think they entitled to another man’s hard earned money I hate record labels they are true scumbags. Artists are worth more dead too these labels that’s why they get insurance on their artists like I said scum behaviour
The thing is, rap has always been a genre that’s relied on reinventing itself over and over to stay relevant in the wider musical world. For whatever reason there hasn’t been a serious movement since the 2016/17 soundcloud days (and those seeds had already been sown by Lil B, Soulja Boy, chief keef etc. in 2010-2013). I don’t think any one artist is going to be able to revolutionise things anytime soon. Carti has his goth look but that’s more just a reflection of pop culture currently, which is moving to that 2000’s type alternative/emo style (and carti is a product of the soundcloud era anyway). It also has to be remembered that rap dominated the late 00s and the entirety of the 2010s, unfortunately that means it’s logical that it may just be heading for a period of unavoidable decline in popularity and quality for a bit. Its happened to every genre, just not rap/trap until now because it’s was always the ‘new’ thing. Punk rock was huge in the 90s and 2000s but was absolutely dead in the mainstream for the last 10 years, now it’s well and truly coming back, that’s probably what will happen with rap eventually.
these timelines are crazy lol rap wasn't the most pop genre till 2010s when Wayne passed the torch to Drake. 00s was the setup with Wayne, Kanye, Jeezy, & Gucci. Hip-hop reinvented itself like rock did prior for many decades. Bands like Blink 182 & Green Day were more or less some of the popular acts in the late 90s but that was after Nirvana & the rest of grunge had its way in the early to mid 90s. Hip-hop won't always be the most popular genre, and personally, I'm ready for us to move past this stagnant ass time where we're in limbo for it. Music works in cycles, but that's in generality, something new tends to surface even with sound that start trending again. I'm ready for the change.
Not only this bro, but all of the biggest innovators within the past decade unfortunately passed... it's so sad to see the likes of Pop Smoke, Juice, X, Peep, Von, PnB Rock, Nipsey, etc gone so soon. They were some of the ones carrying on the torch during that transitionary period right around 2016-2020. Now what's left are all these mainstream rappers who don't bring anything new or innovative. The underground however is still thriving but don't get enough recognition to push innovation.
The best thing for rap, quality wise, is to be forced out of the top spot in the mainstream. That pop spot requires more conformity. But as it goes back to the streets/underground, the genre can get new life -- a breath of fresh air and creativity. This is what happens with house and electronic dance music every 10-20 years. It's heavy in the underground, rises to the mainstream for 5 years or so, becomes extremely formulaic and boring, then gets pressed back underground where it evolves or even regresses back to a prior state before pop influences. Same could be happening to rap.
I saw Nas and Wutang live recently. Let me tell you, whether they 50 or not those guys absolutely murdered the show. Their love and passion for hip hop still runs so deep!!
Only thing abt this dude with serious potential is his seriously bad takes. His argument for the drake song on here was it’s only good if u don’t critique it at all… like bruh, that’s the literal definition of a bad song. If ur a celebrity dickrider with awful taste in music tho I can see why this guy might be up ur alley😂
I don't really have a list, but you mentioning McKinley Dixon made me so happy. That dude is incredible. I also agree with everything you said about Kitchen Lights. That song is so insanely good, I love it
i got into the detroit/flint rap scene around 2019 through tee grizzley, teejayx6 and sadababy and from there i found a shit ton of new artists like veeze(pre ganger) babyface ray, icewear vezzo(criminally underrated), nuk(very underrated rapper), drego & beno, payroll giovani(criminally underrated), peezy, rio, los, RMC mike, bandgang/shredgang, shittyboyz etc. in fact i learnt about the culture and i’ll tell u it’s very different from the rest of the states. nowadays it’s slowly becoming mainstream with artists like veeze, babyface ray and tee grizzly becoming more known to the larger hip hop audience. personally the michigan rap scene is the the most sonically unique rap scene since the change from the swag era to atlanta’s run in the mid 2010’s imo if u feel like ur running out of songs to listen to, listen to detroit/flint rap u won’t get bored that’s what i did in 019/20
And those are just the "commercial" street rap oriented artists. We got way more variety in our city. Clear Soul Forces, Elzhi, Noveliss, Micky Diamond, J Dilla. I could go on. Detroit is one of the most versatile cities when it comes to music
@@Clevername22726 i’m working as we speak, you want me to give up? I’m gonna change the industry cuz it promotes hating like your comment, and hate helps no one. It just makes the hater feel a little better if they can feel powerful over another’s emotions. I promise you the power of feeling love is infinitely more profound, and well worth the effort it takes to get there, well worth trudging through swamps of hateful humans and negative/corrupt industry standards
GREAT VIDEO, the editing and especially the writing was professional as well as being able to joke around and make the video fun, this year gonna be good for you bro keep it up !
The stove god shoutout! I also really like his solo joint “that’s the game” where the instrumental isn’t nearly as Luxurious, but he carries the song with one of my fav hooks in the most recent memory.
Pre 2016 we had a lot of rap groups and independent artists. Now we have a million different 1-hit wonders, everyone either wanna be super drill or super drugged out and it doesnt sound good
i remember larry june from like pre xxl era and he’s grown so much. and i hopped on westside gunn a few years back and ian even mad. honestly hella happy they’re both getting more recognition in the game
Finally someone else says it, I’m tired of people claiming these artists are “unique” but in reality it’s the beats that they are drawn to, not the rapper
i really feel ur perspective... there is some very exciting stuff going on in the game. nothing to worry about.. hiphop ist just evolving while some people got stuck in what they ears got used to in their teens or 20s... has always been the case with generations before ours.
Those 2023 utopia leaks were insane, check them out if you haven’t. I mostly got by just listening to everyone’s leaks last year, hardly listened to anything new. Future sounds, vision, Cinderella and heartbeat all go crazy, Travis is vibe king for sure.
@@oxydayz yeah ik, there’s a lot more going around but they keep getting deleted, I’m just always listening to that mix by @Curatixn the transitions are so good.
Kitchen Lights is the HARDEST Westside Gunn song I ever heard. The serene feel and angelic melody…my goodness!!! “If you sniff powder/don’t sell powder.” 🎉
I’ve now seen 3 other people on CZcams choose different favorite songs on beloved! Paradise! Jazz!? then me. It’s kind of telling how amazing that album is just because of that.
Just because you don’t care about lyricism doesn’t mean other people don’t. It’s still extremely important to the genre. I’m not saying every artist needs to be lyrical (for example, Travis is a horrible writer but still a great artist) but telling McKinley Dixon to dumb down his writing? That’s crazy. It was extremely refreshing to get a new artist with a beautiful soundscape AND INCREDIBLE, UNIQUE WRITING. Kitchen lights also would not have been nearly as good without the impactful storytelling from Gunn. Wordplay also plays a huge role in making hard hitting punchlines and keeping you engaged with the artists performance. I hate hearing the same incredibly monotonous bars from every single rapper. Good writing makes the MUSIC better.
Brother the same can be said for every other aspect of music, just cuz u can tolerate Westside bumm’s annoying ass voice doesn’t mean we all wanna hear it. Same goes with the same ol 80-90 bpm ass boom fap beats, bro has no diversity either. So if we going on all aspects of music, yeat is objectively better than all of griselda combined.
@@OVO-Adolf lmfaooo. This gotta be a troll. Gunn has NO diversity? He rapped over soul loops and trap beats on the entirety of And Then You Pray For Me with like maybe 3 boom bap beats on there. If you gon try to trash an artist at last know wtf you talking about. And I'll never take anybody that say that YEAT of all people is objectively better than Benny or Conway seriously. Your opinion is null and void after saying that bs. Mf really said "boom fap" who talks like that 💀
@@OVO-AdolfYou don’t like westside Gunn because of his voice, not because of his writing, so it doesn’t matter for you, but, for someone who does like Westside Gunn, his great writing plays a big role in that. Also, Griselda has some of the most diverse, unique and incredible production of any rap music ever. Every single yeat beat is the same and could literally be a CZcams type beat, so I don’t know why you’re making that comparison considering EVERY aspect of Griselda music is better than Yeats.
@@OVO-Adolf - LMFAO!!! If there is 1 genre super repetitive it's Trap/Drill (99% sound the same) exception can be made with JPEG but he's not even fitting Trap genre because he's to experimental with his productions. I agree on overrated Griselda shit.
I agree in McKinley Dixon which is by far the best artist mentioned in this list. That said it's baffling no one mentioning artists such as A-F-R-O, Kemba, Hex One, Deca, Homeboy Sandman or Aesop Rock (still killing 99% of the rap game). No female mc's such as Little Simz, Ché Noir, Vel The Wonder or Sampa The Great.
The industry can make a come back but the problem is US THE AUDIENCE WE FEED OF GIMMICKS AND ANTICS THEN THE MUSIC ITSELF PERFECT EXAMPLE BLUEFACE AND CHRISEAN like let’s be real we only listen to the tracks to hear if they replied to beef or if it’s a diss song.we not listening to enjoy music that’s why imma keep saying this till that day when the audience start to care for the music again the label will stop pushing artist to do gimmicky or clout chasing shit
imo none of these rappers are gonna save hiphop. yeat, jpeg, and travis scott are trap artists. its a great year for trap, not exactly hiphop though. What comes to mind is this new 21 savage album that has the ability to bring more soul into the game like the alchemist did, but over the years it's been more of a niche genre. late registration and college dropout could've solidified it, but it's really been a passing thing. it looks like rap will stay as an oversaturated drake dick sucking contest right now. My opinion is that rap will continue to have artists boom from tiktok, then die out like always. Trap artists like ken carson and carti will inspire people to create music like them, which will saturate the genre, and the greats (kanye, 21, cole, drake) will stay in their place, until they stop making music, then other artists will take the throne and the spot to fill for an empire.
This what what happens when we dont empower underground hiphop. Even the mainsteam fans get bored and end up (eventually) agreeing with me. Mainsteam rap is just straight up underpopulated. Drake + 3-4 artists at a time cannot hold an ENTIRE culture together by themselves. Mainstream rap is like 2% of all rap. Or even less.
This is the reason why the SoundCloud era was so great because new artists would reveal themselves what seemed like almost daily and garner attention. The underground started to merge with the mainstream. But, because of this, labels started to lose their control on the game so they had to do something about it, now down the line this is the product of that control.
@@snapkrrthat era was like the grunge of hip hop. The artists involved were extremely influential but a lot of them died before they could expand the sound
Scaring the hoes by jpegmafia is the one thing that made me interseted in good music at all holy shit I can‘t believe I was listening to eminem and drake before
tbh hiphop is at its golden era as we have so much too choose from with so many styles like there is always that one artist for you like yeat for dystopian rap, travis for psych rap, jpeg mafia and danny brown with that experimental style, lil yatchy for bubble gum trap and that psych sound, lil uzi with his weird production, playboi carti with his rage beats and many more..
@@GENUINEKAInah he’s right especially some of the underground rap rn not like xavier or nettspend but this more flavorful lyrical production with a retro style of music videos
And Then You Pray For Me was my favorite album of the year. Got the physical too. Kitchen Lights, it’s not even fair how good it is but the TRAP tracks are Hardddd. And I love the boombap from Gunn but he a trap nigga fr and it’s nice to see beat match the who’s who
first of, let me say good & well done video man 👏 I somewhat agree with your points and somewhat disagree with your points, but that's just how life is! Rap & Hip-Hop has been changing throughout the years and will keep on changing, and that's just something that is inevitable... Personally I wished that more of the, quote on quote "underground" would get more light on itself. One of the biggest and, quote by himself "the biggest known-unknown" which is true. BONES, should def be on the list imo. Other rappers i wished got more attention (name drops coming) would be: Jake Hill, Kill Dyll, HAARPER, SXMPRA, Saliva Grey, Pouya, Terror Reid... and many more. But again, nice video man! keep up the good work 🔥😤
Picksixx is an African-American rapper from Los Angeles, California. He has gained recognition for his unique style and captivating lyrics. Some of his popular songs include "Shake sum" and "Sneak Link." His music combines catchy beats with clever wordplay, making it a must-listen for hip-hop fans. If you're into rap music with a fresh vibe, I definitely recommend giving Picksixx a listen
Ima happy you mention westside gun and Griselda like westside Gunn and Benny and his brother and the whole clique go hard thanks to maxo keam I got put on to them and never looked back and I will also say westside the last of niggas still making it off lyrical/gangster rap (old fashion boom bap) and I feel like every once in a while we need some new and refreshing cuz I’m a heavy underground and mainstream listener from yeat to thug to Travis and future but I will say lyrical is always a cool lil balance

Hip Hop is fine. It just so happens the worst artists get the most attention. Plenty of phenomenal artists out there.

True, but we're talking about the state of mainstream hip hop, which is in a horrible position that has ever been rn as far as quality album releases
Couldn't have said it better
think about why that is though? the labels want to make money so they push the acts that do that for them.. the audience is killing the quality of hip hop with their wallets
@@iangarcia1585that’s because everyone’s tryna cater to TikTok which promotes either weak bars, little to no bars, and little substance songs

The thing is, rap has always been a genre that’s relied on reinventing itself over and over to stay relevant in the wider musical world. For whatever reason there hasn’t been a serious movement since the 2016/17 soundcloud days (and those seeds had already been sown by Lil B, Soulja Boy, chief keef etc. in 2010-2013). I don’t think any one artist is going to be able to revolutionise things anytime soon. Carti has his goth look but that’s more just a reflection of pop culture currently, which is moving to that 2000’s type alternative/emo style (and carti is a product of the soundcloud era anyway). It also has to be remembered that rap dominated the late 00s and the entirety of the 2010s, unfortunately that means it’s logical that it may just be heading for a period of unavoidable decline in popularity and quality for a bit.

Your so right time is an evolution ❗️
thats what makes hip-hop/rap special. thousand genres but hip hop alone decide to distinct itself by revolutionizing its sound over and over again
these timelines are crazy lol rap wasn't the most pop genre till 2010s when Wayne passed the torch to Drake. 00s was the setup with Wayne, Kanye, Jeezy, & Gucci. Hip-hop reinvented itself like rock did prior for many decades. Bands like Blink 182 & Green Day were more or less some of the popular acts in the late 90s but that was after Nirvana & the rest of grunge had its way in the early to mid 90s. Hip-hop won't always be the most popular genre, and personally, I'm ready for us to move past this stagnant ass time where we're in limbo for it.

Not only this bro, but all of the biggest innovators within the past decade unfortunately passed... it's so sad to see the likes of Pop Smoke, Juice, X, Peep, Von, PnB Rock, Nipsey, etc gone so soon. They were some of the ones carrying on the torch during that transitionary period right around 2016-2020. Now what's left are all these mainstream rappers who don't bring anything new or innovative.

The industry can make a come back but the problem is US THE AUDIENCE WE FEED OF GIMMICKS AND ANTICS THEN THE MUSIC ITSELF PERFECT EXAMPLE BLUEFACE AND CHRISEAN like let’s be real we only listen to the tracks to hear if they replied to beef or if it’s a diss song.we not listening to enjoy music that’s why imma keep saying this till that day when the audience start to care for the music again the label will stop pushing artist to do gimmicky or clout chasing shit
Me and yuno miles got y’all 🫡💯
ong tho
Fr bruh Pizzeria is a masterpiece that transcends space and time

Facts cochise goated
fr
12:00 facts bro that search and rescue so hard g
FINALLY BRO! Lmao just kidding. Your content is fire man, you're my favorite CZcamsr right now. Keep making bangers!
That Ocean Sounds and Kitchen lights were dead on. Both instant classics.
First time I felt exicted to see a rapper in 2019! Pop smoke!
I will be crossing over to English hip hop this year! Before I ever made a track in Spanish I was an English rapper! Somebody gotta do it🤷♂️
those Sexxy Red and Drake picks, yeah good luck with that
imo none of these rappers are gonna save hiphop. yeat, jpeg, and travis scott are trap artists. its a great year for trap, not exactly hiphop though. What comes to mind is this new 21 savage album that has the ability to bring more soul into the game like the alchemist did, but over the years it's been more of a niche genre. late registration and college dropout could've solidified it, but it's really been a passing thing. it looks like rap will stay as an oversaturated drake dick sucking contest right now.
My opinion is that rap will continue to have artists boom from tiktok, then die out like always. Trap artists like ken carson and carti will inspire people to create music like them, which will saturate the genre, and the greats (kanye, 21, cole, drake) will stay in their place, until they stop making music, then other artists will take the throne and the spot to fill for an empire.
Search and rescue makes me feel nothing
This channel is FIYAAAAAA
omg i love "bigger then everything". its in my top 1o as well
“Dad, come home, Duplee just uploaded” 🗣️

Dude got personality and shit is funny. Keep it up my man.
Nettspend, the Virginia Grim Reaper, is going to save the day☝🤓🔥
stop please not here too
LMFAOOOO 😂 u flaw for this
You put me on some nice tracks thanks my guy
plz don't cut my wings in the background ? great choice, my man
That lady part of what you said is very telling. You’ll never find “utopia” sweeping everything under the rug.
i feel like I just watched a ghetto ferris bueller tell me to go listen to more rap music , hard ass list
The intro is crazy💀💀💀
This what what happens when we dont empower underground hiphop. Even the mainsteam fans get bored and end up (eventually) agreeing with me. Mainsteam rap is just straight up underpopulated. Drake + 3-4 artists at a time cannot hold an ENTIRE culture together by themselves. Mainstream rap is like 2% of all rap. Or even less.
This is the reason why the SoundCloud era was so great because new artists would reveal themselves what seemed like almost daily and garner attention. The underground started to merge with the mainstream. But, because of this, labels started to lose their control on the game so they had to do something about it, now down the line this is the product of that control.
@@snapkrrthat era was like the grunge of hip hop. The artists involved were extremely influential but a lot of them died before they could expand the sound
duplee🐐🐐🐐
So glad you put McKinley Dixon in here he is so good
loved the video Duplee, could edit your videos I feel like we could make it more engaging
Still pretty good tho nil
KITCHEN LIGHTS, IS THE BEST 2023 SONG
u make good videos
Gotta album comin on the 23
"Glorb" been making Spongebob Drill Raps using A.I and single handling humilhating the Hip Hop industry right now with goofiness.
He ain't humiliating nobody, but I do prefer him over icespice
HIP HOP GOES THROUGH FACE AND SOUND CHANGES EVERY DECADE..LONG AS POVERTY AND INJUSTICE IS AROUND HIP HOP WILL LIVE ON..
Sexxy Red always sounds like she recording off a built in laptop mic😂, it’s just her voice tho
There's a lot of dope underground shit in certain parts that don't get recognized, especially here in mia
Scaring the hoes by jpegmafia is the one thing that made me interseted in good music at all holy shit I can‘t believe I was listening to eminem and drake before
Thats what happens when u listen to experimental rap, u never get tired of it because its always something new unlike the mainstream
@@LxrzoI’ll give it more listens but as of rn I only got like 2 songs liked
tbh hiphop is at its golden era as we have so much too choose from with so many styles like there is always that one artist for you like yeat for dystopian rap, travis for psych rap, jpeg mafia and danny brown with that experimental style, lil yatchy for bubble gum trap and that psych sound, lil uzi with his weird production, playboi carti with his rage beats and many more..
You literally just making shit up 😂
@@GENUINEKAInah he’s right especially some of the underground rap rn not like xavier or nettspend but this more flavorful lyrical production with a retro style of music videos
Stop trippin' because this stuff was already happening in the 80s but what would you know if you've never been their in the first place.
The great escape was def one of my fav rap album of the year
lil b actually made the best song of the year for the 15th year in a row.
ayo i watched the whole video lmao
Looking at westside in the thumbnail is crazy, he retired from making lengthy albums.
Has anyone turned these songs into a spotify playlist?
And Then You Pray For Me was my favorite album of the year. Got the physical too. Kitchen Lights, it’s not even fair how good it is but the TRAP tracks are Hardddd. And I love the boombap from Gunn but he a trap nigga fr and it’s nice to see beat match the who’s who
Blackyspeaks at the beginning is crazy
this the most chaotic music video on yt
I dont speak nonsense i act on instinct LMAO
Bro just like me Kitchen Lights is a hard asf 🔥 i get in my car and bump tf out of it also the key glock album Glockoma was really good
11:22 YES!!!!! SOMEONE HAD TO SAY IT🗣️🔥🔥💯💯
That blackyspeakz image in the beginning 💀
tap in for what’s next
Jacksonville Fl
Underground scene will become the next radio hits
I'm sorry but when you started with sexy red as number 10 I knew I wasn't gonna take this video seriously
first of, let me say good & well done video man 👏
I somewhat agree with your points and somewhat disagree with your points, but that's just how life is!
Rap & Hip-Hop has been changing throughout the years and will keep on changing, and that's just something that is inevitable...
Personally I wished that more of the, quote on quote "underground" would get more light on itself.
One of the biggest and, quote by himself "the biggest known-unknown" which is true. BONES, should def be on the list imo.
Other rappers i wished got more attention (name drops coming) would be:
Jake Hill, Kill Dyll, HAARPER, SXMPRA, Saliva Grey, Pouya, Terror Reid... and many more.
But again, nice video man! keep up the good work 🔥😤
I love search and rescue. That song is addicting i swear
ur so underrated bro
Picksixx is an African-American rapper from Los Angeles, California. He has gained recognition for his unique style and captivating lyrics. Some of his popular songs include "Shake sum" and "Sneak Link." His music combines catchy beats with clever wordplay, making it a must-listen for hip-hop fans. If you're into rap music with a fresh vibe, I definitely recommend giving Picksixx a listen
Ima happy you mention westside gun and Griselda like westside Gunn and Benny and his brother and the whole clique go hard thanks to maxo keam I got put on to them and never looked back and I will also say westside the last of niggas still making it off lyrical/gangster rap (old fashion boom bap) and I feel like every once in a while we need some new and refreshing cuz I’m a heavy underground and mainstream listener from yeat to thug to Travis and future but I will say lyrical is always a cool lil balance
2:25 lmaoooooooooooooooooo bro youre hilarious
