In this dynamic episode of Real Talk Radio, host JayRay sits down with good friend and former track star, Chris Donsereaux, to dissect the evolving landscape of hip-hop in 2024.
They touch on the aftermath of the iconic Drake and Kendrick feud—exploring how it was a moment of greatness for hip-hop but may have cost fans legendary collaborations.
They celebrate the surge of female rap, highlighting trailblazers like Glo Rilla, Sexyy Red, Latto, and Megan Thee Stallion, and discuss how female rap is finally receiving the recognition and love it has long deserved.
They also discuss the true difference between ghostwriting and collaboration in rap, the challenges of distinguishing female R&B voices, and Drake’s evolution— examining why he's a polarizing figure, his significant contributions to hip-hop, and evaluating the quality of his music now compared to his earlier works.
So, whether you're a hip-hop head or just curious about the genre's shifts, this episode offers fresh perspectives on the music that shapes our culture.
