Think about it. Consider the people at the top right now; will they still be active (or alive), and what influences have they made on hip hop that will probably effect hip hop’s future. What about the old school legends and rappers who are considered GOAT by a lot of today’s listeners? Will people still be listening to them 50 years from now and using them as inspiration? What will the beats sound like, what will the themes of the lyrics be? Give me your thoughts.
