same thing happened in the 90's. rap rock, trip hop, electronica, r and b stars with guest rappers. the only new 'pop' influence of hip hop I hear today is on bro country.
I agree, Kayne turned hip hop upside down in way, but you have to understand hip hop was pop in the late 90's and early 2000's too. I wasn't quite old then and not much has changed besides the distribution, new production styles/flows and the emotional impact.
I say, better hip hop to be 'pop' even more now than rap-rock, pop punk, or post grunge. it's always been mainstream where im from. so be it. Drake is not that bad and he shows appeal even to me. I understand why people like him.
yeah, im kinda a (rock head). I can't help it. I like bass, guitar, and drums where three or four people are rocking in a room. it's magical, but I love lots of hip hop too. even some new shit you and Sev post.
as you say, like what you like. yr getting defensive and taking it the wrong way. our posts are not a whole trying to attack you. different opinions.
