Episode 87 - Himothy

Rhymes Like Dimes Podcast

This week we receive a topic from a fan, exploring whether nepotism is a problem in hip-hop, highlighting artists such as Coi Leray, Jaden Smith, King Combs, Oh No and Diggy Simmons and if they block paths for other artists to find success.

We dissect consumerism in hip-hop and discuss whether the genre needs white consumption in order to thrive, particularly when it comes to live shows and concerts. We name a few rappers who felt immense pressure going into their debut albums, before touching on hip-hop pioneer Melle Mel and his recent comments that have divided the community.
