My taste in music can traditionally be traced back to inspirations like David Bowie, Rolling Stones, Creedence Clearwater Revival, AC/DC, Tears for Fears, etc. So new music, especially rap, is just constantly disappointing to me. I like very few rappers. 21 Savage, Kendrick Lamar, and maybe Post Malone are all I really care about. At all.
Even then their lyrics mean absolutely nothing to me. It's very much about them and THEIR experiences and that's fine but there's a lot of music that I can actually relate with but Drake, Cardi B, Kanye, Nicki Minaj, etc. Mean absolutely nothing to me. They're lyrics do nothing for me. There's just a disconnect between the beat of a song, the lyrics being sang, and the experiences shared by the artist and the listener.
Shame really. The music is good but I can't give a **** about it.
