The Prediction of Hip Hop Future

The Year of the Rapper is Back!

Theo Hall
In my experience I have come to the conclusion that hip hop music has three categories of musicians. They have all had their turn in ruling hip hop but it looks like the year of the artist may be coming to an end now that drakes appeared. Firstly let's explain the three categories you have poets which are the kids that viewed the street from a stoop or corner. They write street novels and have a way of putting the lyrics across in a way that affects your heart and mood. The Shakespeare's of hip hop. Unfortunately they are now nearly extinct as the industry doesn't seem to have time for these ones anymore. Let's have a look at six of these poets;

Tupac

Nas

Common

Jay z (The former)

Scarface

Styles P

The era of soulful hip hop seems to be dead. The voice of the people who are suffering that aren't making money from drugs or making it as a hip hop star but that are stuck in the hood with no hope has been silenced. These poets spoke the truth and from the heart.

The next group we have is the rappers the ones who no matter what will tell you that they made it rich already through the street and that they carried weapons which were used all the time. These rappers lack heart like the poets but are at the highest IQ of rappers. They are the voice of the hustlers, killers and players. They paint pictures of factious situation with no remorse but the intelligence of these individuals is actually remarkable. I call them the bill gates of hip hop. Let's just look at six.

Biggie

Drake

Eminem

Jay z (The New)

Beanie Sigel

Jadakiss

Now it seems that this eras back since drake has appeared.

The last group we have is the artists now these ones are the quick money makers of hip hop but all seem to fizzle out very fast. They set trends and dances that have the world going crazy. They ruled hip hop for the last few years. Nas has claimed they are the death of hip hop. I say well they bring money to hip hop and attention but it's up to the rest to show people the real music when the attention is grabbed. Here are 4 of these artists.

Artist

Soulja boy

50 cent

Plies

Lil Wayne

Snoop Dogg

Dem Franchise Boyz.

But in conclusions it looks like the year of the artist is dying and the year of rappers will start.
