Why is rap music declining in popularity ?

[Red flaming panda]

Fantano and his kind killed it. Music that is popular is the music that is considered "cool", Fantano was able to successfully associate himself with rap music primarily (thought he does review other genres, he sucks rap dick the most) and so now when people think or rap they think of doofuses like this:

and no one wants to be associated with that, so its over.

There isn't a single music snob who is as faggy as Fantano.

Rap is dying, like this post if you're a true rapist

It's directly tied to declining testosterone levels. Niggas be watching anime, playing video gaymes and sheeeeit now.

 

[Absolutego]

15 years of the scene descending into little more than triplet flow trap turned most people off of the concept
It's not a great sound and for a little bit there that was 99% of rap music.

We'll replace them with even more violent wiggers.
Gimme rainbows!

It was culturally popular because they were something deep in cities that most individuals did not have to directly interact with. Now that fatigue is set in, not only is their "culture" popularity declining, but so is their "population" popularity. If I have to hear some fetty wap faggot music on public transport 24/7, I'd hate it too.

Also another thing I want to add. Black America in general is having issues. They are committing more crime (even more then usual) and in turn killing each other.

Worst however is that they are starting to be effected by things that hurt White people but they were mostly safe from until now that being opioids and suicide.

For opioids, In 2020, the overdose death rate among Black males 65 years and older was nearly seven times that of White males 65 years and older. Black people 15–24 years old experienced the largest rate increase (86 percent) compared with changes seen in other age/race groups during 2019–2020. Overdose death rates for AI/AN women 25–44 years of age were nearly two times that of White women 25–44 years of age.

While the overdose rate for Whites is actually starting to go down or at least isn't going up much (this depends on location and age group)

With suicide though, the tides are again starting to turn. Whites were famous for their very high suicide rate but once again that is starting to go down or at lead not increase much. While the black suicide rate is starting to go up rapidly.

Because it takes no talent to make. I say "bitch" and "nigger" very day.

While this is a bit distasteful (I know says the guy with chink in his PFP) it has the relevant facts and figures in a connivant place so here it is

 

[Ed Special]

Half the big names that anyone actually cared about in that space are currently either facing charges for being serial rapists or have been just straight up unpersoned by the financial institutions and mainstream media for being critical of those you're not allowed to criticize. That just leaves the guy who's known primarily for being an even bigger child-sniffer than the current sitting POTUS, Kendrick Lamar, and about three million barely-literate soundcloud retards who only just figure out how to export a file in FL Studio.

those sound cloud niggers got lazy, they had to know that their window was short and their fanbase was fickle.

 

[⚞⛇⚟]

Many Gen-Z people I know listen to rap exclusively, so I am guessing that the decline of rap is because gen-z is now discovering new music and getting bored of rap. Maybe someday people will listen to the same autistic stuff that I do.

 

[Hellwalker]

White boys don't want to act like niggers anymore. They want to act like Hispanics who in turn want to act like niggers.

 

[Maurice Maine]

Not rap but this is what 2024 low budget music sounds like

For comparison, 1966:

Therefore it's quite obvious that kids today would rather listen to the infinite backlog of music produced in the 20th century

 

[Caddo Cobgang]

I hope it is, its by far the most annoying genre of music.

 

[HyperboreanRightsActivist]

Because nigger music has gotten progressively more and more retarded since the 80s.

Since the 30's*

 

[A Deer In Headlights]

I asked my normie brother since he's more into rap than me. He said that most of the long-time figures aren't dropping hits anymore and that the newer artists all sound like trash. Specifically he mentioned two names: Yeat and Ice Spice.

Spoiler: [Explicit] Their most streamed songs on Spotify

Ice Spice - Deli

Yeat - Monëy so big

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K4LOK_DoAQ8

For those of you who want to spare your ears, I skimmed through some of their songs and they both sound like your average Zoomer SoundCloud rapper. The 4 songs I heard from Ice Spice all had lines about how she dummy thiccc and twerks (which you can imagine how all her MVs would look like). Yeat I honestly don't know what he's saying and it just sounds like white noise to me.

It's probably like what other people have mentioned here that a lot of people are finding other genres they like with better production than what most rappers are doing.

Spoiler: now THIS is real music

This knowledge makes this even funnier

 

[Grub]

I dunno. Probably because zoomer rap is gay as fuck and has only been getting lamer and gayer as time's gone on. Listening to some retards fucked up on anti depressants and Ritalin mumbling under a fuckload of autotune about high end fashion designer clothing and fancy watches probably gets old after a while.

Because Rap focuses more on samples from Kraftwerk, Tangerine Dream, Stevie Wonder and Pink Floyd along with other early music artists. They don't know how to rap in the beats of Skrillex or Martin Garrix. And since samples from early electronic, rnb and rock music is running dry, everything sounds the same.
