This is a natural change in music genre. Every music genre had it's "golden" era like jazz, blues, rock, etc. they all had their time periods where they were most influential. And it's during these time when artists start changing the style a bit, and bit by bit the genre changes to a whole new one.

As someone who's a BIG hip hop head, the genre is DEFINITELY in need of an overhaul and it starts with Rap/R&B getting lower sales. I think it'll be like what rock is now with getting all the critical acclaim even though it doesn't sell well to the mainstream. And i think Rap is just another symptom of how the more "bigger" genres are being REALLY oversaturated in general. You would usually hear the same songs all the time from either tiktok or (god forbid) the radio, and most people at this point are just sick of it being so formulaic and actually want something new to the table.
BTW, /\/\ /\ Y /\ is a masterpiece and M.I.A. is always ahead of the curve.

I honestly think hip hop is dying in the mainstream but the underground is absolutely thriving.
(Edit: I’m not saying that there isn’t any originality or pushing of boundaries in mainstream hip hop. I think certain artists are much more okay with being commercialized and having their music be more of a vehicle for making money than it being about the art. Obviously this isn’t bad, if you’re good at something don’t do it for free. At times this (to me) diminishes the value of the art and in the underground I see more people chasing something deeper than just money. It’s all love though we all connect to what we connect to.)

The best thing to happen to hip hop is that people started to embrace getting experimental (again*).
