Re: Old School Rap VS New School Rap

You cant really compare old school rap to new school. It has totally different vibes. My favorite era of music was from '03-'07.

Re: Old School Rap VS New School Rap

It's really a matter of preference. Me, I tend to like wordplay in the forms of metaphors, double entendres and similes. Not saying that they weren't around in the Old school era, but I see it a lot more now. And on top of that, the beats sound hella better than back then

Without Old School Lil Wayne wouldn't be who he is... Without old school hip hop there would be no new school.

What he said. There needed to be a line in the sand. You needed guys like Keith Sweat and DMC to give you the '12 singles. Not that I am that big of an old school head in the sense of I listen to a lot of 80's and early 90s music. My era of choice would be 1994 -2000. But gangsta music needed to begin somewhere. Music with lyrical note needed that too. People seriously think guys like Drake, J Cole, Khalifa, all of these cats would have just came out with this punchline type of flow they had without any inspirations? I don't really think so. I leave Wayne out of that since he's been around since the early 90's.

And most down south artists are a living liability, and show you that they are shit EVEN with inspirations. Hell, you needed DJ Screw to give you slowed down beats. You needed Pete Rock to give you classical, gutter beats. It doesn't just go from who is doin the lyrics. Hip Hop/Rap in total needed a start somewhere.

Re: Old School Rap VS New School Rap

I'm not much into old-school .. it doesen't sounds so good,the beats are plain and boring. I know they were good and that was real rap but i still can't stand how it sounds.
