Hip Hop used to be about a message or story, (ALONG with) the ability to rhyme.

Nowadays it just seems like a catchy hook/ chorus repeated over and over. Drake is a perfect example. I like him, but his "Started at the bottom now we here" is just repetitive. Also, saying "Nigga" a thousand times is no different than saying fuck every third word. It's lazy writing.

Hip Hop has been corrupted by producers with a catchy beat. IE: Lil John's "Turn Down For What" What happened to real hip hop like: Tribe Called Quest, Gangstarr, and Mash Out Posse??
