    those "plagiarism claims" were nothing more than a half hearted attempt at getting some (apparently) -easy- money and shouldnt even be relevant enough to enter the conversation on the topic of ones reputation as a writer.

    Of course, I'm playing devils advocate here, but the implication of ones opinion still remains.

    Thats exactly it. I don't expect young thug to rap like jay z. But I like most of his music. I dont like carti because I dont like his voice. I never said he's a bad rapper just not appealing to me.

    Rap is way worse now obviously, but if 20 track trap albums is what they want now, it is what it is. I think trap hasn't been good in years

    Disagree, it's just weird trap with an annoying voice and gay looks

    From what I've heard I sorta agree but being gay or "looking gay" is objectively based

    I think there's just as much out there for either side. One thing I have noticed in recent years though is I feel like wordplay is like the new multi. As in this generation (both rapper and listener) is more into dope wordplay/double entendres/puns, as opposed to going crazy for a multi syllable rhyme scheme (which the average fan considers being "lyrical") like something generic post-hiatus Eminem would spit.
