Actually I hope it won't and it know that I won't. See Hip Hop is music for the dumb and the best part about it (the only good thing about it actually)is that it attracts all the dumb ppl around it seperating them from the rest of humanity. So you can easily pin point this morons and stay away from them.

Hip Hop does for Thugz what a big pile of cow dung does for flies, gives them a place to buzz around.

Well on one hand I would say no for a few reasons, one their a different sound, two the provide different effects, three the listeners of each genre are looking for something different from each genre. On the other hand I say yes because thats exactly what it did to me, but as far as just flat out replacing hip hop in this country I would say no. Also who says you have to be a thug to listen to hip hop? Number one its clear you dont have all the facts and are making a bias opinion. Hip hop for one is generally not associated with gangster stuff. Its more devoted to music and rhyming skills. Rap on the other the other hand I will agree, rap offers very little that it is entertaining or meaningful because it focuses more on thugging, jewelry, and women, but to say that the only type of people that listen to either are thugs is total non sense and I could go delve deeper into your categorizing and "generalization" but for the interest of a safe sanctity on this forum I will not, all I am saying is that you do not have the facts and youre statement was obviously bias.

Trance listeners are drug addicts. I guess that's what you're trying to imply

Amen to everything dJohn has said. I'm one of the few people (apparently) who listen to both hip-hop and trance. Even though I see trance 'growing' and becoming more popular, I don't think it'll be at the cost of hip-hop. I like trance, and I like hip-hop - they both sound good.
That's it.

Unfortunatly the mainstream-music tend too be "overplayed", I can hear tha same shit at the radio 3-4 times a day (my roomie/collegue has his radio an al day long) and it pisses me of. Even in the "clubbs" in my hometown they run mainstream-shit. i have no probleme with hip-hop ar any other mainstream music, but it gotta be in the right proportion and place.

Btw, it would be terrible if trance grew as big as hip-hop imo, it would lose a lot of the soul it got today..

Try as I did, I couldnt have put it any better. That only goes for the "thugz" tho, not the (tiny) minority that are actually cool people.

Trance isnt popular in the States because they dont play it on the radio and its funny because 90% of the people in this country think that every electronic gene is called "techno." i like the trance scene the way it is. it lets me forget about all the junk you hear on the radio day in, day out.....i hope they dont take that away from me and make it even more main-stream than it is now.

I wish trance was more well-known as what we listen to, not stuff like Sandstorm and Alice Deejay productions But I have a feeling that IF trance becomes somewhat mainstream, it'll just make anybody think they can produce it and it'll evolve into its own cheesey genre. For example, after hip hop/rap became mainstream, you have stuff like Nelly and 50 Cent, which is not true hip hop/rap. Either way, it would be bad for trance, so I think trance should be kept the way it is now.

will never happen...they're both two totally completely different genres of music...they might maybe one day merge together to form some weird type of electro-hip hop music...(which i wouldn't doubt exists already just don't know what that would be called)....but trance will never replace hip hop....although trance might surpass it in popularity but YEARS and YEARS down the road...not anytime soon..
