damn, maybe hip hop is on its last legs.
can't you guys stop giving sales so much value :P

No. Come on, if an artist used to sell like 600k then starts selling 8k, that usually tells you something.
so what?

the music will keep coming regardless

We fans are to blame, when was the last time you guys have bought a cd? Why buy it when I can steal it? Right?

tbh hip-hop is getting stale. Most of the albums are boring or a re-hash of something done better. I don't really count BEP as hip-hop they've gone off on a different tangent. Not really my thing but at least they are trying to do something new. People like Em, Jay, 50 etc are all half as good as they were 6 years ago and the new acts like Gucci and Ross have little personality and forgettable production driven songs.

Kid Cudi and Drake at least have something slightly different. The more hip-hop acts experiments the better imo. Black music in general has become a bit stale in the US and could do with new-genres being created. The lower the sales the more artists will try new things to succeed and this can only be a good thing imo.

no matter how much i like an album i dont buy it anymore. this is why. all u folks talkin bout hip hop is dead and music is whack now need to get a fuckin grip, stop dreamin of the glory days, theres plenty of good music out there and u have this great tool called the internet that helps you to find it quickly and easily. its NEVER been easier to find great music u guys are just narrow minded and probably only like one certain type of music
