corpse claims that the 2010's has largely been about deconstructing rapping itself. (keef, thug, et all)
i've posited that the story begins to emerge at the turn of the millenium with nelly melodies and the popularisation of lil jon non-contiguous rapping. luke also points to 50 as a melodic rapper.
luke thinks that eminem's uncoolness made rap realise that rappidy rapping was no longer the best path to pursue.
we need to map this:
at what point to proper rapping become redundant?
what paths were explored to try and circumvent rappidy rap?
by the end of this thread we should have a sprawling, pedantic timeline of events.
