It is bullshit. half of these fucks are talking out their asses daydreamin and pipe-dreamin and rapping about owning Bentleys and Mosbachs when they have to borrow money from some gangster to RENT one for the video shoot, which they can't even drive because that would cost more...

Anyone worth listening to isn't doing that at all. In fact the general consensus for best rap album of the year* on here all couldn't be futher away from your view of what modern day rap is about. Is there shit? Of course there is, but no more than there was 'in the good old days'
"Life ain't nothing but bitches and money" a line by a group who romanticised violence and misogony...in the wonder years of 1988. To make out that braggadocio and is something exclusive to modern rap is clearly not true, and you know it.
*Joey Badass, Kendrick, Lupe Fiasco, Vince Staples and so, and so on.
