…Listen? Hell no. I made the point earlier that people are going to have to sit with this. Part of the reason why is because it is so disjointed but also, because #hiphop still does feel like it’s in a state of transition. There’s equally more variety yet, it’s becoming harder to discover artists. In that vein, #RunToAtlanta having an underground artist makes sense as it still feels like that Good Ole #DrakeStimulusPackage energy, but it also doesn’t.
