Yeah, I agree. The rise and popification of hip hop has taken the guitar out of the picture. Although original hip hop heavily sampled funk and Motown, trap took over hip hop and hip hop took over pop.

For sure. I think people often forget how young hip hop is and how much growth it still has ahead of it.
What punk did for rock, needs to happen for hip hop. I compare today’s hip hop to the hair band rock of the 70s. Some underground movement needs to revolt and go back while moving it forward.
