Why do fans keep waiting for Jay-Z, Nas, Drake, Kendrick Lamar, Lil Wayne and J. Cole to drop albums? Are younger artists getting overlooked, or has the music industry completely changed?We also discuss the lack of artist development, radio's declining influence, social media's role in creating stars, and whether hip-hop has done enough to prepare for life after today's legends.00:00 – Intro: Is Hip-Hop Really Declining?02:18 – Hip-Hop Is Bigger Than Ever...
