bosstrabs Since this appears to be taking over the world,

You what? The clue is partly in the rest of your post - it’s been and waned already, you’re at least 3 years late.

Also, of all the tracks and artists to zone in on from the sound, you’ve managed to find some shite ones (of which there are a lot tbf); still, it’s therefore no wonder you don’t like what you’re hearing. Juice Wrld and Lil Peep just had shit songs full stop, and xxxtentacion only had one half-decent song ‘Sad’.

      On the subject though, I quite liked this from the so-called genre (well, mostly the beat).

      Again, 4 years old already

      Also, I think this was classified as soundcloud/mumble rap.

      It’s legit quality though, I’m not ashamed to say I listened to it a lot. Again, 4 years old though already, ha:

      Fuck off Hugo you absolute bellend.

      ‘Taking over the world’ in the sense that it’s played on Radio 1 all the time and my teenage neighbour blasts Juice WRLD out of his window.

      Maybe it was all over 3 years ago in your hyper-bleeding-edge Berlin world where everything’s already passe two minutes before its seminal track has even been conceived.

          bosstrabs where everything’s already passe two minutes before its seminal track has even been conceived.

          The genre’s seminal tracks were all released 2017->H1 2018.

              So my timescale of you being interested in it to becoming an absolute bellend about it is roughly correct.

                  God, I wish they’d rebuild the Berlin Wall with you on the wrong side of it.

                    bosstrabs I still listen to that Lil Uzi Vert track above sometimes, and one or two of his more recent things, but that’s still possible to do while recognising that clearly the thing and the artists associated with it did indeed peak 2017-H1 2018.

                    All the artists you and I have named released their biggest tracks during that period, and all the ones you named are since dead so they’re obviously completely “over”.

                    Don’t get salty because you and whatever backwater you’re in are so late to find things out.

                        bosstrabs which side would that be? There are loads of people here who seem as if they’d rather be living in the GDR (not me though obvs).

                          Sorry, it didn’t even cross my radar as I was living in Beijing, which has an organic, varied and interesting music scene of its own.

                              bosstrabs then why not make a thread about that if you’re so au fait with it?

                              Most of the music from China I’ve happened across here has rather come from Shanghai, e.g. Genome 6.66 Mbp.

                                It’s called the North Hugo.

                                  bosstrabs fair enough if you find it interesting. i think it’s music for children and has no redeeming qualities.

                                      jonattonyeah yep and i listened to a lot of shitty music. then i grew out of it. to each their own of course, but mumble rap is garbage, as far as i’m concerned.

                                          This has been a thoroughly enlightening discussion.

                                          Between 303abuser sauntering in repeatedly just to declare any listening to the genre ‘pointless’, Jonattan posting stuff that isn’t even of the genre, and Hugo dismissively saying we’re all too late to even bother discussing a genre that’s now 4 years old, you can see why I would be keen to share the fruits of the Beijing music scene.

                                            bosstrabs do you expect different bringing up a genre that doesn’t even remotely interest most of the people on the board? and i stated my opinion once, the other two were replies, hence the term discussion. i’ll give you a lol for starting the thread then complaining about the few of us willing to engage you.

                                                303abuser

                                                Sometimes it isn’t the quality of the music but rather the feeling it brings. The youthful exuberance - it’s not just a song, it’s magic. A transformative experience where you hold your mate’s hand to Lil Peep and think, yeah, I’d fuck my best friend.
