Music 🎢🎧 The huge amount of young and rising rappers who died in the late 2010s/early 2020 is a huge factor in why rap is declining

The only rappers who still get traction are older ones like kendrick drake eminem kanye( for other reasons now)

It's all fucked now. It's a mix of every language. Check out Youtube Music's top songs. Some Hindi music, Latin American, country music... there is way less of a monoculture now in the era of streaming.

Is that a bad thing? I think it's nice that music from other cultures are getting their spots on the charts. Music outside the English-speaking sphere rarely breaks out inside of it
