Meek was never big time therefore the fact he has flopped doesn't mean the rap game has "flipped-turned upside down!"
Tbh, new style rap is pure shit anyway. All about explosion sounds or gunfire sounds and talking utter nonsense about wealth they:
A) Haven't got
B) Have got
C) Wish they could get and are trying so hard they'll never get it by talking about it
If you compare the old-school rap to new-school you'll notice a huge difference. It's as if those who are producing it have no respect for the art..
There is a small handful that do care about it and rap about meaningful things, Hi Rez and MGK to name a few, but those such as everyone in YMCMB are sellouts or never had anything to sell out for and hopped on the hype spitting pointless shit and getting fans that know nothing about rap following them. (No offence to anyone who likes their stuff)
The beef between Meek and Drake is fucking stupid. Two shit rappers (One with no talent and one with ghost writers) taking digs out on each other.
Yes, Meek flopped hard on his diss track but Drake had to pull someone on his diss track to make it worth listening to and even then it wasn't all that either.
As for Dre, I haven't been following what he does lately. Dre is Dre and is one of the prime reasons rap is so popular. He helped shape rap along with many others and that is all I have to say about that.
