I think that over the past year or so, particularly with a credit to Black Panther, modern hip hop has really received a big boost. Kendrick Lamar might end up with an Oscar for the sound track to the movie, while Donald Glover/Childish Gambino also made waves thanks to This is America, which was released concurrently with an appearance on Saturday Night Live.
It is at the height of popularity as well. J. Cole and Travis Scott sold best selling albums this year, not to mention the continuing efforts of a wide variety of artists like Pusha T, Rae Sremmurd and Big Sean, and the new to the scene Cardi B is featuring on nearly every song that she isn't the main artist. Hell, Migos became only the second group in Billboard history to place 14 songs songs in the Hot 100 at the same time. The other group? The Beatles.
That's all well and good, but just know that Eminem and Nikki Minaj hate you. Here are a couple of videos that break down exactly which people Eminem and Nikki Minaj have problems with.
