In today's installment of the Riddim And Poetry Podcast, we delve into a thought-provoking discussion surrounding the evolving perceptions of contemporary rap within the newer generations. Inspired by the recent discourse ignited by Killer Mike's Grammy win for Album of the Year, we aim to dissect the prevailing sentiments among today's youth towards socially conscious rap. We'll explore the puzzling trend where many seem to gravitate more towards mainstream chart-toppers than artists with a message. Is hip hop exclusively the domain of the young, or are there deeper reasons behind this apparent shift in taste? Join us as we engage in a lively debate, seeking to uncover the underlying factors driving this phenomenon.
