I dunno, I personally think rap as a genre is in the ter right now. Basically the evolution of rap is:
Birth of rap - 1988: This was the 'I'm a much better rapper than you" phase where one rapper was dissing another based on rapping skills.
1988 - 1997: The rise of gangsta rap. While this phase started out strong, it quickly ended up as a bunch of pretend studio gangstas. By 1997 this phase of the genre was played out and the deaths of Biggie and Tupac were the nails in the coffin. I'm no huge rap fan, but in my opinion, the best rap was done in the gangsta rap phase.
1997 - Present: The 'I've got more cash, cars, homes, bitches, bling, etc than you' phase. IMHO, this is the lamest phase of all. The tracks sound alike and all the tracks are about the same thing. there are 1000 cookie cutter rap artists out there all doing the same . I mean how many ways can you rap about the fact that you have 50 cars and they all got chrome wheels before people get tired of it.

wow 100% completely false. rap started in 1980. one of the fathers of rap: grandmaster flash and the furious five. another pioneer of the whole hip hop era, yes u guessed it, michale jackson
first founders of gangsta rap: N.W.A emerging in the 80's |
Umm read my post closer, the first phase is from THE BIRTH OF RAP to 1988.
And most people mark the rise of gangsta rap to be 1988, the year Straight Outta Compton was released.
So what was false in my post? |

the first gangsta rap song was Schooly D's "The P.S.K (What Does it Mean)" from 1985. Kool G Rap and Ice T were also making 'gangsta' rap in '86 and '87 (as was NWA; Straight outta Compton wasn't their first effort).
The first rap record was the Fatback Band's "King Tim III" released in the spring of 1978 -- the Sugarhill Gang's "Rapper's Delight" came out later that year.
Oh, and Dre has been notorious for neither writing nor producing: his verses have always been ghostwritten and his production has always been done by others but he has scored most of the credit.
NWA production credit to Dre was really DJ Yella, DJ Train and Buck
Chronic production was almost entirely done by Warren G
Chronic 2001 production was done mostly by Scott Storch (though he received partial credit on some tracks). |
