I dumbed down my taste in music.

i dont know if i try to relate to the young cats as much as just trying to understand them. one thing that im happy to see is so many 30 plus rappers still being active and thus creating a lane for us to still be active in the culture.

we still have Ghostface and Black Thought.

I just listen to underground shit and my old shit I collected when I lived back home.

Co-Town Michael · February 27

Y'all niggas old as shit.

I dig in the crates, well the DL websites. I find a lot of old stuff, stuff that I wasn't old enough to like or stuff I may have needed to mature to enjoy.
Of course the old faithfuls are still regular: Common, Nas, Ghost, Roots, etc until then I play old stuff but still keep my ears open for new material too.

Cutler 26 INT's LOL! · February 27

Y'all some old ass niggas. Lol

Don't y'all have careers to do or something.

I'm 23 but am kind of on that same vibe. Not a whole lot coming out impressed me too much.

On a side note, 37 year old dude I work with born and raised in some Jersey projects was geeked off Life Is Good, and fucks with J. Cole. lol I guess that's the direction y'all are heading...

Ear2DaSt · February 27

old is da new young!

Relate to the same shit that you always did: I can appreciate dope-ass lyrics even more that I'm older, so anything with creative wordplay gets burn from me. At the same time, I was raised on down south and up north east coast rap. Anything in that vein, I'll mess with, so until those regions explode, I'll always have something.

What's left is truly whatever we want, so long as it's not becoming a lame-ass, "Oh, I'm older, so I'm supposed to do/listen/think this" while looking awkward as fuck. Even the King of Changing Clothes and dressing like a "grown up" still rocks some Levi's and butter Timbs with a sag at 423, and he looks more normal in that than he does in all that Eurocentric shit Kanye West keeps trying to force on himself to appear mature.

I'm just hoping I live long enough to be called an old ass nigga. Glad I'm closer to 30 than I am to 20
