Not while the Beast Coast movement (and others like Action Bronson) is in effect.However if the Beast Coast movement fails then the East will suffer setbacks and the South will continue to reign supreme. It's happened before when the West tried to regain supremacy with the Hyphy and Jerk movements which ended in failure.we got too much dope shit for us to ever fail we got the roots, static selektah, duck down,etc.

you guys are forgetting the Necro and Kool G Rap project, that will be the best thing NY rap has produced in a good five years.except for the Goretex cd that came out last month, of course

Wasn't the foundation for hip hop pretty much corny but fun party/dance music? If so that means the genre basically went full circle after a decade or so of rapping about "the struggle" and lying about how gangsta they were. And in that sense everyone sounds like they care about the foundation.As for upholding the standards that's easier said than done for the new generation(s). I mean the nostalgic biases that people from the past have make it already impossible for the newer generations to match those standards because people just won't let them compete with the shit they grew up with. At this point if the newer generations tried sounding like the generations that came before them they'd be approached with a "been there, done that" attitude and dismissed as rip-offs that have nothing new to offer. If they try experimenting with something new, there's going to be old people complaining about how it's too new and too different and not what they expected and dismiss them as wack because they can't understand it.In turn they're cornered into a small section haunted by the success the generations before them had and struggling to find a way to breakthrough.Quote from: Sir Petey on November 15, 2013, 02:44:25 AMny sadly will probably never be dominant again in our YOUNG lives...maybe a hip hop renaissance will take place in 20 years or something (not these lil mini throwback movements like when some fag wears a dookie rope and a snapback or something) a real renaissance when the shit rappers NY rappers did will finally be appreciated in a historical context of great importance.finally cats will realize that black thought was one of the best poets of our generationthat questlove is the equivalent of the hip hop quincy jones and disnt have to smut out white women to do it.that LLcool J actually was the GOAT up until he started openly claiming itthat wutang is the equivalent of a NY hip hop beatles or maybe better yet rolling stonesI don't think saying how shit was so great eons ago can be considered a renaissance. It'd be a series of documentaries on PBS.
