(sabotage)Why 2012 Was The Best Year In Hip Hop For A Decade

[PAINKILLƎR]

By the looks of this it seems that you only listen to mainstream hip hop, and if so then there's your problem, if you look elsewhere you wouldn't have the problem with uncompromising work. Hip Hop was not dying nor was it dead. GKMC was better for Hip Hop yes, did it save it? no.

I listen to underground artists too but do you know a lot of new uncompromising albums as succesful as GKMC ?

Was there any album better than GKMC this year? I don't think so. But you're making it sound like it's the only album that delivered in a long time. There is good albums all around, whether it was mainstream or underground. The point is that Hip Hop was not dying or dead. I wouldn't have a problem with someone saying it was the best album in a long time, but to say It saved Hip Hop??? NO! because again it was never dying. lol

I agree with you but I'm not the one who said that kendrick was the only one who has been saving hip hop for a few years.
My point was that kendrick and a few new artists (most of them are new comers imo) proved that hip-hop doesn't have to go pop to be successful.
In fact, I was talking about underground artists who can be succesful on the mainstream scene and who set up a good example for the other artists

Lol, why are you bringing underground hiphop into this? We're talking about mainstream hiphop.

Mainstream hiphop is definitely dying.
