Tbh these newer artists wouldn’t been known right now without Tik Tok. No other artists has really blown up from SoundCloud where people actually really fw since 2018
Not even no nostalgia shit, at the time when most of them soundcloud era songs dropped in 2015-2018 they were instant hits and dominated the culture(Look at Gucci gang for an example😂) most of these new rappers are fire but they not making music thats truly dominating the culture or is timeless and they seem destined to be underground with a cult fanbase forever
Feel you they don’t really distinguish themselves that’s why. Back then 21 sound nothing like pump, he sound nothing like Denzel, he sound nothing like uzi, he sound nothing like ski mask etc. etc.
SKI MASK WAS LEGENDARY BRUH LMAO KRISPY KREME, TO THE MOON, THE WHOLE DEATHSTAR TAPE WAS FUCKIN HARD Summrs hasn’t had a moment like any of Smokepurps highest moments fr but everybody hates purp now so ofc they gonna vote summrs
@@gcurriinahuri5039 and they all sound like wlr type beats. I knew soon as that sht dropped everyone was gonna bite it. Yeat bit all of carti beats but I’ll give him having his own flows and vocal sound. They need to add some more levels to their music like beat switches, I think these young rappers need to learn from travis on how to bend they vocals to match beats more sonically
This was lowkey unfair basically damn near everyone from the old gen blew up the new gen still needs time to compete with their hits you should of used SoundCloud classics instead of songs off major albums it would of been more entertaining
Old generation went harder but, the new generation are definitely more experimental. I’d say that’s probably why they won’t really be as mainstream as the old generation.
In a way yes, but also “experimental” is far from true now. With this new wave we see new better production but then that just turns to them all doing the same thing, and people might deny but sometimes you confuse these new rappers with themselves because they are all so alike
Some of the “old gen” list has one hit wonders that don’t even represent the old gen. Uno & Thouxanbanfauni solidified a spot in the old gen of music fs
Ugly God had a way bigger moment than yvngchris ever had tbh but yvngchris had that viral song on tiktok so they kinda tie imo Edit: water was a musical phenomenon. The song went viral solely off the energy the song held. it was fun, funny, and a pretty good song fr it didn’t go viral by being used in a multitude of videos, it was enjoyed, instead of used like how yvngchris’ music went viral. His music was used as a trend, maybe to just make something funnier, or to put emphasis on something, but it was never appreciated for the song it is by itself, like musical enjoyment. Water was huge, a song most people will remember, while dip freestyle(or any of his big songs) was just a background song people used to make their own content, not the same
we had a few goats come from SoundCloud from 2015-2018 being Juice, XXX, Carti, Uzi, trippie (and a few more I'm missing). Since then there's been none.....
I really don't like the new soundcloud "plug" style or whatever it's called. Too autotuney and lazy, plus the baby voice trend is SO FUCKING ANNOYING. That being said, there are some bangers from this generation
@@BlackGirlLovesAnime6 “trying to make him a thing”Your really showing your age kid🤣Duwap been a thing and he was clearly before your time. You prolly a sofaygo fan or something 🗣
@@aboogeytheboss5043 I’m older than you I’m in my 20s Duwap is trash which is why he will never make it out of the underground. And yes sofaygo is much better than him.
In 3-4 years no one will be listening to Yeat, it will and already is getting kinda old… the kids who listen will get older and will want to actually understand the lyrics they consume and there will be someone new who the kids fuck with more
I didn't pay attention to the old gen that much, I was only 14 at the time so I'd only listen to the odd song like Boss, Magnolia, Audi, ect, but I still think the older gen is better. Sofaygo and Yeat are the only ones I'm really fuckin with in this new gen.
@@theylovekolt7770 not a tiktok rapper, tiktok rappers are ppl who only have songs big on tiktok with a mainstream catchy sound, Yeat is experimental and has an actual fan base unlike one hit wonders on tiktok
this is completely my opinion but I feel like old gen had long term value because tiktok wasn’t around they blew up on soundcloud not tiktok all these new “underground” rappers didn’t blow up on soundcloud they blew up on tiktok
People literally voting because they’re thinking about where the artists stands now… almost all of new gen is more popular than old gen lol ugly god losing to yvngchris is a prime example that people aren’t thinking back, just thinking about today
This new music really getting old quick, everybody doing the same exact shit, Tik Tok overplays everything, and these rappers have no versatility with they sounds cuz its all stolen. Since Tik Tok been popping i havent considered any of these rappers underground, since all it takes is people dancing over audio to get a song up in views. Yeah the new generation really brought a refreshing sound during a drought in rap music but i feel that Tik Tok destroying new sounds and will continue to. There are so many brand new sub genres in the actual underground that really need to be explored but havent gotten the time nor attention they need. Regardless i would much prefer natural growth over instant virality, cuz now everyone wants to copy flows and make the same fucking thing because Tik Tok made it that easy.
Don’t forget to check out my new song ;) song.link/i/1617667692
I will not
No
hell nah
The resounding disagreement in the comment section, I’m cackling.
Sold Yeat wtf
2015-2018 rap scene was unironically the peak of trap music it’s never going to be that good again
Agreed
Agreeed
not with that attitude
We ways say this every generation, last gen is always better than the new
It’s because of how the generations are raised and grow up
Old for sure. The new generation is ight, Old was way more organic and revolutionary. The new generation overated
I fw both but youre 100 percent right
You speaking straight no homo facts💯
Agreed
Yea new it cool for a moment but old was a movement. The artists actually cared about their sound and interacting with their fans
Every generation says this about the last, few years from now we gonna be saying this was the best generation better than 2025
I like how you calling “old-gen” old💀 it hasn’t been THAT long 😂
It’s been 6 years😂 wym
don't overthink it, it's not that serious, how tf would u like to call these category of rappers??
its pretty much just the people who was there sense the beginning
nigga it’s for reference
It has in internet years.
Tbh these newer artists wouldn’t been known right now without Tik Tok. No other artists has really blown up from SoundCloud where people actually really fw since 2018
str8 facts
99% off these people blew up from some type off app why is it a problem tht he blew up from tiktok
yeat would have blown up easily in the soundcloud era
@@overtsins yeah but yeats style only exists because of wlr so no point in making up what if situations
@@baptisedindirtysprite3593 u right
I’m voting for X any time he’s a once in a lifetime type of artist
Not even no nostalgia shit, at the time when most of them soundcloud era songs dropped in 2015-2018 they were instant hits and dominated the culture(Look at Gucci gang for an example😂) most of these new rappers are fire but they not making music thats truly dominating the culture or is timeless and they seem destined to be underground with a cult fanbase forever
Facts most of them are built like they’re manufactured because there’s not much originality with most of them.
So many people making the same songs that’s why
Feel you they don’t really distinguish themselves that’s why. Back then 21 sound nothing like pump, he sound nothing like Denzel, he sound nothing like uzi, he sound nothing like ski mask etc. etc.
that Magnolia Snippet is goated "In my Sock" stop acting like Carti didn't birth most of this new gen
what u expect these the new fans 😭
realist shit
Uber everywhere is legendary bro
It is, madeintokyo is the reason why Uber got so big
The new does not put in as much effort and thought as the old. Its not even comparable as soon as Uzi, X, juice, ski or even carti get mentioned
people used to hate on the 2016 era for being mumble rap but praise all these tiktok artists for mumbling waaaaaaay more
SKI MASK WAS LEGENDARY BRUH LMAO KRISPY KREME, TO THE MOON, THE WHOLE DEATHSTAR TAPE WAS FUCKIN HARD
Summrs hasn’t had a moment like any of Smokepurps highest moments fr but everybody hates purp now so ofc they gonna vote summrs
Summrs is just better tbh
@@doffyxlgaming hell no
@@tbpoof summrs way better than purp u just a sheep
both hard how bout that
Sumners not good as purp and i dont even like purp trash sht
Old gen def got it but I would like to see this same list go at again in a year a two to see if anything changes🔥
Same here! At least by 3 years from now
The problem is with the new generation is using the same style of beats where as 2016/2017 everyone was so unique
Wdym there’s pluggnb beats and rage beats.
@@gcurriinahuri5039 and they all sound like wlr type beats. I knew soon as that sht dropped everyone was gonna bite it. Yeat bit all of carti beats but I’ll give him having his own flows and vocal sound. They need to add some more levels to their music like beat switches, I think these young rappers need to learn from travis on how to bend they vocals to match beats more sonically
Juice Wrld destroys the entire list lol even his peers
We need a aux battle between leaks or unreleased songs
Yeat turns up hella then against Carti ngl
8:42 dawg what was that💀💀💀
Imagine not having Uno on this list loollll
these aux battles are fire bob
This was lowkey unfair basically damn near everyone from the old gen blew up the new gen still needs time to compete with their hits you should of used SoundCloud classics instead of songs off major albums it would of been more entertaining
Yea half the new gen are kids
it still is entertaining 😭
Old will forever be goated

Not fauni
d savage, fauni, uno, black smurf, xavierwulf, young bans that’s js a few but I think they dominate underground music back in that 2015-2017 era
Ugly God had a way bigger moment than yvngchris ever had tbh but yvngchris had that viral song on tiktok so they kinda tie imo

No cap I rmb my whole middle school class singing water .
i think we got a 🥩🎠 here
ugly shouldve won but these new gens dont know him like that

Lil Tracy is apart of old soundcloud
Black kray too
YOU DONT KNOW HOW HAPPY I AM THAT YOU PLAYED SKI MASK FOR PURPP
I’m just saying most new gen rappers are gonna have insanely short careers. The quality just isn’t there for most of them.
Bruh I fkn love bobbalam😂🤣
Bro I remember bumpin ski mask by purpp back in the day them times was amazing
ALL YOU HAD TO PLAY WAS DEXTERR😵💫🪩🪩

New gen got it in the bag😭 jus wait they had time give em time to shine
How is duwap not on the old generation list Bob🤦🏾♂️Half of the new generation are Kaines children 👨🏾🦯
Cuz he didn’t make it out…he’s not one of the artists that are the face of the old SoundCloud gen.
@Solxstio that doesn’t make any sense. Grandfathers are old gen
Duwap is booty why do y’all keep trying to make him a thing 😂.

bob either u suck at aux battles or u tryna make one win over the other 😑
Both
Been waiting for this one
Yeat having the best adlibs is a crazy take we alr know carti got it down
Have u ever thought of doing aux battles; NEW SOUNDCLOUD GENERATION VS MAINSTREAM EDITION.
Bro played magnolia 😂😂😂
lowkey did faygo dirty he has WAY better songs
Why u calling the SoundCloud era old? I was like ten when it was going on in 2016 but I still remember all of it
Mf you were 10? 🤣🤣🤣
Bro literally smokepurp perfromed ast year in the uk and it was packed
Old gen everyone had their own revolutionary sound. Now everyone sounds the exact same.
I grew up with the old generation now I'm listening to the ones that have stayed relevant and the new generation 😊
same here, I stepped away for a bit when my depression was bad, but now I’m catching up
Bro I remember love scars dropped memories
Ian gon lie the best rapper that’s gonna come out of the new batch of rappers hasn’t blown up yet
not gonna lie bob was actin like a old head in this vid 😭😭
boa yk these kids wasnt bumping magnolia in 2017 most of em was fetuses 💀
LIL PUMP VS COCHISE IS A FAIR MATCHUP. bob trippin on that one. but idk im a cochise stan
The new scene not as diverse most them(not all)sound overal too similar but the old scene had little more variety
literally made the background music to this whole video a yeat beat 💀
Old gen is the best
pls do more aux battles i love these
One bad thing about the new gen that most of them sound the same
Dude juice body’s all the new gen lol
They deadass all his sons
@@NateGotJokes what??? Uzi n Carti are fathers to the new gen
Conversations alone as a song is better than all of new gen
In 3-4 years no one will be listening to Yeat, it will and already is getting kinda old… the kids who listen will get older and will want to actually understand the lyrics they consume and there will be someone new who the kids fuck with more
Old gen all day
old got it
ILY Truly
old soundcloud gen had a lot more unique beats the new rage wave is kinda making the new sound saturated
Juice, Trippie, X, Uzi, Skies,Yatchy, etc it's not even fair how not close in talent it is
Unbelievable how disrespected Skies is
I wanna see an anime where all the rappers fight in a tournament or something with thier own swag
Nigga played magnolia I'm outta here
I didn't pay attention to the old gen that much, I was only 14 at the time so I'd only listen to the odd song like Boss, Magnolia, Audi, ect, but I still think the older gen is better. Sofaygo and Yeat are the only ones I'm really fuckin with in this new gen.
Autumn is really good
@@astro.8888 I've heard a few autumn songs and I think he's good, But nothing has grapsed me to his music yet
Yeat doesn’t have a song better than magnolia or location fr
He most definitely has songs better than magnolia, mag isn’t even top 5 on self titled
he a tiktok rapper 🥴 I don’t fw it it’s def not for me the only things that makes his music even half decent are the beats
Bak on ëm, No Feelingz, Off tha Lot, Nvr Again, Cmon, Factz, Morning mudd. 🥱

1:29 its “spin” not spit
U picked kankan over ski?? Then picked smoke purp over summrs???
I lowkey think you should have put ssg Kobe against juice wrld lol love them both
this is completely my opinion but I feel like old gen had long term value because tiktok wasn’t around they blew up on soundcloud not tiktok all these new “underground” rappers didn’t blow up on soundcloud they blew up on tiktok
why would u choose kant relax to go against magnolia 😭

Damn I thought this was pat cc vid🤦🏼♂️
Back in 2017 these kids where in elementary 😂💀💀
Old is better they all got different styles not clones like the new
Cochise > lil pump
xavier wulf? tracy? peep? yung lean? this is the most surface level shit
Denzel, famous Dex, $snot, peep, and comethazine shoulda had a spot too
Bob do u fw Devstacks? He's my favorite underground artist right now. Like I hope he blows up man
We need Travis Scott news
I dont even have to watch the vid.
OLD Gen all the way
My main thing is that this man just picks terrible choices of songs frkm the artist

shouldve used iShyne for the pump vs cochise comparisson ngl
yeat being that close to carti is so disrespectful and i even fw yeat heavy
we fr became oldheads
Old gen slaps
Why no snot
Bob sold counter video???
I love how x is on top if x was alive still he would beat Kobe but rip x tho
Picking lil skies over autumn is insane
did he just say that juice „fell off“?
You’re tripping D rose is unironically fire
The old Gen I thought would lose lost
U should hv went on their sound cloud pages
Lil skies is tuff bro autumn is dope too tho
Skies should’ve dumped on autumn
old gen?
ngl i agree with most of the results but you were convincing them as well & you were being a lil biased
Lmao I thought someone knocked on my door on that Chris song fuck
