When has any people before invented such a 180 genre of art from scratch and had it get this huge? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5795588&forum_id=2...id.#49416616) |

But either way it pales in comparison to eg the first 2-3 decades of Hollywood imo, which was far more complex to spread globally and required built out of massive amounts of theatrical infrastructure, and was 100x more dominant and hegemonic as a cultural force and creator of cultural icons and archetypes.

It was so easy to scale it globally because anyone could easily generate a beat if they had a turntable (or later a computer) and every culture could appreciate the obviously appeal of metered, rhyming couplets. Of course there are awesome hip hop artists/songs/albums that came out of this massive cultural shift, but there’s a ton of forgettable garbage, just as their was with rock music, but it’s orders of magnitude more shit music with hip hop. Go to any hip hop open mic night at any college in America and you’ll spend 2+ hours listening to a bunch of people who suck and who likely would never have even tried to pretend they have creative ambitions if it wasn’t simple to declare oneself a hip hop artist.
