i was watching bet news one night, and this guy said that rap/r&b is the new pop. it's kinda true, and i hate it. i think i first noticed it when lil' jhon came out. he markets his music as "krunk" - whole new genre - but i still say it's rap. and it's not very good rap in my opinion. but people like usher are suddenly gettin hours of airtime on mtv. that's new. so...what do you think? is rap/r&b the new pop.

QUOTE(ryfitaDF @ Jul 14 2004, 6:11 PM) rap has always been pop. pop is short for popular. you shouldn't be able to make somthing sound popular. the only way somthing should be popular is if people like it and not a genre of music. as I said though, real hip hop artist aren't famous.... the rappers that are big are basically puppets of the industry that make songs for the people to want to buy more than make music that they truly feel... wit the exception of Em and Jay, no "talented" MC's really sell half ya'll don't even know who Talib Kweli, Pharoahe Monch, Ras Kass, JR Writer, Kool G Rap, Rakim (mighta heard his name but how much have you heard?), and others are....... those are hip hop artists... I don't even consider Chingy, Nelly, Lil Flip, and others MC's... they're straight up wack |
