Answer 2

If you listen to the same genre of music you will eventually find that you aren't intrigued as you were when you first experienced it. A good example is cartoons when you were a kid. Everything seemed incredible and new. But as you grow older and tired of the same old thing, even new cartoons don't have the same effect. There are people who are just now beginning to experience the music you have listened to for years who believe it to be new and exciting because they haven't heard the ten other basslines and cliche lyrics that you first heard years ago.
Try listening to something in a different music style.

If you really want to hear the roots of the music you know, try some James Brown, Sly and the Family Stone, Ohio Players. All of us who grew up with that were asking your same question back then regarding 80's Rap and 90's Hip Hop.

Answer 3

Well, it's not just rap and hip hop. It's every genre. It's the whole "american idol" mentality. These days, a 'superstar' is created, not developed.

I'm a huge fan of the blues so I'll use it as an example. In the early 1900's musicians like Robert Johnson sat on the front porch with a 2nd hand guitar and LEARNED how to play and DEVELOPED their own style; it went on like this with the migration of the sharecroppers into the northern factory jobs in chicago, detroit, st louis, and memphis. They were MUSICIANS.

Now, the performers are good looking people who have songs written for them, records produced for them, and money handed to them. The songs are no longer about a person's true life experiences and feelings, they are written by people in a closet some place in nashville. THese song writers are too ugly to sell records though.

Unfortunately, the largest record buying group is the teenagers that believe whatever the media tells them, they get the money from their folks and spend it on 'n sync crap.

Dont fret though, music always changes and it will come back around. This is evident in the rock/blues arena with guys like John Mayer and Henry Garza bringing back that growl on the guitar. Your rap will come back too.
