Summer Walker doesn’t hold back her tongue when it comes to speaking her opinion. The R&B star had a few things to get off her chest regarding Hip Hop’s current landscape. According to Walker, the genre is in a dire state and pretty boring, to say the least.
Summer Walker took to her Instagram Story through her personal Instagram account to get her point across about modern Hip Hop. In her mini-rant, she shouts out several legendary rappers who paved the way for the new generation and how these young guys can’t hang.
“N-ggas was so cool back then like literally player af,” Walker wrote before going down a list of names. “Pimp C, Andre 3000, Big Boy, Common, Pharell, Snoop, Tupac, B.I.G., Ice Cube, lol what happen. I mean I know what happen but I can’t say haha.”
She later added Nas’ name to the list and labeled Anderson .Paak Hip Hop culture’s last hope in keeping the spirit alive with this current generation. Many people agreed with Walker in TheShadeRoom’s comment section under their repost of her statements. Some said the reason for the lack of excitement in Hip Hop is social media, while others blamed people “supporting bullshit music.”
While she ponders why Hip Hop lacks in the “cool” department, people may still question Summer Walker’s parenting skills. In May, Walker posted a photo of her baby, and many assumed the child was malnourished given how small it looked.
The “Girls Need Love” singer didn’t make her situation any better after sharing a photo of her baby’s diet, which apparently consists of hemp seeds, honey and mushrooms blended into a smoothie. Summer Walker was not happy with the backlash and made an executive decision regarding her child and Instagram.
Summer Walker Fans Question Her Parenting Skills Following Viral Baby Photo
“POST THE BABY BITCH WE WANNA SEE!” she wrote in her Instagram Stories. “also y’all: roasting a baby [whose] face you can’t even see. lol make it make sense. In conclusion mfs is weird and I will never post my baby so stop asking.”
anyone to keep you warm tonight.
Kendrick tho bruh Kendrick is best artist of all time who wanna argue???
Kendrick, Cole, Ces Cru and Wrekonize doing their thing, but she does have a point.
..K-Dot needs to hurry up this way again with another album… an albulation or whatever, just produce something for the fans!
Most overrated rapper I’ve seen in a minute.
U have lost ur mind
My fault Fo, you stop playing have lost your mind for real though stop playin
I agree, I think hip hop lacks originality. When artists dropped their album you knew what you were getting from wu tang, mobb deep, snoop, nas, jay, 50 etc. and it was fine.. now everyone sounds the same and the fans act like they can’t like more than one artists and keep comparing them to other artists or their first album that they released. It’s sad
Facts because rappers follow trends now a days, not try to be different or they try too hard to be different that it’s awkward.
It doesn’t have that “rebel factor that drew people to it in the 80’s & 90’s anymore. It’s as mainstream and corporate now as boy bands are, same with everything that’s been pretending to be “punk” rock for the last 20 years. It looks like it, it sounds like it, but the spirit is gone. Old school rappers wouldn’t be issuing apologies on twitter because they offended somebody., and they wouldn’t be trying to copy everything else on the radio to stay relevant. I’m Not saying that there isn’t still some good music coming out there, but rap hasn’t been a counter-culture genre in about 15 years, it’s just another controlled and sanitized thing now.
funny how big name artist like Kendrick, Drake, jayz, Eminem, snoop Dogg wanna release music every few years and wait until fruitcakes are not in the spotlight before dropping new music because they don’t want competition from newer artist like Nas x
Nas, Drake would definitely sell and break streaming records. Jay-Z would sell too but by putting a million downloads in people’s phones. Other than them, I agree, the others would struggle.
SHE’S NOT TALKING ABOUT SALES AT ALL THOUGH
DO YOU LISTEN TO MONEY?
SMH
LoL Ice Cube a playa … gtfoh hoe
go underground or do they have that pervasive media touch too.
she aint wrong!
The Earth’s not as cool either.
R&B star? Going a little too far eh Mark….
Who?????
Wait ain’t anderson paak a singer?? The problem with people like her is she thinks only mainstream, popular rappers only count. Their are plenty of dope cats out there like Big Krit, Nip before he passed, Akeem Ali, Les, Reason from TDE, Euroz, Nick Grant, Dizzy Wright. Dreezy,
