Do you think Hip Hop is dead?

I don't think it is dead but I DO think that the whole game has changed. It isn't like the old school hip-hop and rap that used to be out there, but although different I still like a lot of the songs that have been coming out.

Hi friend, I was a big fan of 50 Cent but he has now lost his image after singing with Justin T and a few other lame people. I no longer like this music since hes gone

I would say that it isn't dead. I just think that the artist who are going to keep it alive haven't been discovered yet.

To me hip-hop and rap are now offically dead. When the music no longer has meaning whats the point in calling it music it all? some people argue it does have meaning... to those people i ask what value does it really hold? Very few artists actually bring what rap and hip-hop need nowadays. I see children being over taken by this new form of the music, and to be honest its just plain stupid, and its hardly even a style or art anymore. Most of it is pointless, stupid, stolen lyrics, or about 20 words repeated during the whole song. All they sing about is "hoes". That's the value people are being taught through this music. the value of "hoes". i Went back to oldschool and underground music, which aint hard to find cause i live in NYC. Look up immortal technique..

hip hop is not dead it jus has phazes from old school lyricisim,b boys,gangsta rap,break dancin,house music,snap music and abunch of others, right now it jus seems like its dead becuase it isnt selling and goin platnum. and people are also saying hip hop is dead becuase theres no more lyricism in the radio plays and its just pop music and no ones listining to underground rap any more, to me hip hop is alive but has takin some shots

i dont thinnk that hip hop hop is dead but however, i don't feel that hip hop is in the same state as it used to be,back in the days hip hop represented the voice of the people,when rapers talked about what was going on in society such as crime drugs and the struggle and oppression people faced and things like that. but now the only thing certain rappers talk about is how much jewelry they got on and how big their rims and houses are, not to mention how every rapper comes out with their new type of dance.
