Over the past month my wife and I have noticed that the hip hop radio stations in Houston (93.7, 97.9) are playing all the cats that we have been listening to for the past 8 months or so, from Rae Sremmurd, to Rich Homie Quan to TY $ to Kevin Gates to Future. I guess no one under 30 is listening to the radio anymore.

You sir nailed it. This era is all just lazy party music about excesses and debauchery more than its not... and hey, there has always been a place for that in rap and hip hop but it seems to me to be too much involved in the ratio now for my tastes
