    You can and will always be able to find comfort where real rap music resides: the underground (I'm aware this is not a cool term anymore, but it still applies). This is of course highly subjective.

    I don't even visit any of the rapper sections in this forum, but it's just comforting to know that there's people here that appreciate good rap music, in general. Or maybe I'm just outdated, I'm sure there must be dope mainstream rappers out there, as there always have been, this talk is so old. I just don't have the time anymore to give it that much time, so I focus on what I know will be good: struggling creative rap artists trying to get noticed.

    We've been in worst eras, but I'd agree as someone on the wrong side of twenty, that we aren't exactly in a golden age, if you get me. It's been undeniably worse though.

    I remember when things like this were popular.
    One time back in middle school some little trendy rap song came on the radio when I was with my mom and I awkwardly turned it down lol

    Nope. I prefer the weirdo era over the ringtone era anyway. 2006-2008 was s--- aside from Weezy and Kanye being saving graces.
