Why 2018 Was So Fun (For Rap) 

What's your favorite 2018 album?

This Era of Rap Music should've kept going 2014 - 2019

i would pay anything to go back to 2018

Damn, you never really know how good/special a year is until years later you’re reminiscing. Thank you for this. I miss that 2017-2018/19 era dearly compared to now. Things were so much simpler.

i always considered 2018 the best year of my life so far and i was only 13-14😭

I just saw lil skies Thursday and seeing him perform his old songs brought me right back to 2018

My freshman year of college.. good times fr

Never considered the true value of 2018 but this video truly gave me goosebumps on multiple occasions just thinking back abt that period of time in music and entertainment. Awesome video

fortnite was so good in 2018 they are still trying to recreate it today

With the exception of 2016, 2018 was a really memorable time, till this day I still bump juice, skies, ect. The rap nowadays just doesn’t hit anymore, and 2018 also has a lot of good memories that I still cherish till this day

2018 was a crazy year for music man there was goodbye and good riddance ? astroworld kids see ghosts those are still my go too albums

rip X:(

I’ve been waiting on the video for a while, 2016-2018 were absolutely unbelievable years not only for music but just to be alive man. I still reminisce about those days all the time and would do anything to relive them!!

been waiting on this vid for months since u teased it in the 2017 vid lmfaao ty

Plug walk, zeze, lucid dreams, mo bamba, plug walk shit so many memories

2018, an iconic year in HipHop, and music in General . So many great albums .

been waiting for this video

OH MY GOD FINALLY IVE BEEN WAITING FOR SO LONG!

Also, imo 2018 was probably my personal favorite of hip hop, mostly because I was in it since the start of the year, unlike 2016 and 2017. 2018 is probably a year we will never see again as how rap has changed a lot since. Not to mention other mediums apart from rap. I want to one day make a video on hip hop of the 2010s in total

Watched this while high, I was smiling the whole time 💯 thanks for making this video, I really appreciate it

Thank you for this....The NOSTALGIA

I've been waiting for this for 6 months! Great video. R.I.P. Juice btw. Him and Kanye my goats

I miss 2016 - 2019 i wish rappers continued in this lane.

def was my fav year in music

I am so glad they made a video on 2018 rap

Goated year man 😢

Damn I didn’t even think about it deeply how different that era of music was just because of how genuine and organic it was. SoundCloud peaked in 2018 but trust me it had been the gateway to the underground since at leasstttt 2013. This was prolly the only time in music you could find someone and a song completely unknown and 2 weeks later there big just off pure tan support. Before it was labels and cds and now it’s paying for streams/views and promotions. Shit is crazy asf to think about. Like bro I remember listening to Khalid’s “location” when it had fuckin like 20k TOTAL plays and showing my friends. A month later he’s global. The equivalent to back when rockers use to go small venue to small venue hoping to maybe get heard or seen. One week in some raggedy bar next week at the garden! Great time for music and didn’t even realize it till I see how corny and forced it is now. It’s just so hard to find good music when absolute shit is payed to be put in front of your face. Money rules it all, and paying for social media promotions and flooding people feeds is the bread and butter

The fact that it’s almost 6 years ago astounds me.

Juice WRLD popped perc after perc and nobody said anything to his face until it was too late. They all hyped him up and told him all his music was great. But mentally he was struggling the whole time and now Juice is gone for good.

Love what you're doing

Man how I miss the Juice, Lil Mosey, Lil Tecca, Lil Skies and NAV type of melodic rap

RIP X

what a great year bring tears to my eyes

You make the best rap content here bro, I'm very happy whenever you post videos! I would really love to see a video from you just about Kanye or Travis, pls

The SoundCloud era is one of the best for music period… I think 2017 was the most iconic year tho in my opinion

damn I was so happy watching this vid until 5:27 hit me hard 😢 I miss x man

lil baby saying "more than friends" gets me everytime bruh 💀

Been reminiscing for the past week about the soundcloud era and conveniently this video popped up

Old Skies had consistent heat 🔥🔥

Damn this video hit me

Will there be a 2019 video? These vids got me crying on god

my chemistry teacher played lucid dreams every day couldnt get away from that shit

Life was odd in 2018 i hada lotta change that year

last good year honestly

Was waiting on this one 🥹

2018 is just a top year for rap

Damn i miss 2018 i remember just blasting lil uzi money longer song in study hall with my friends

Amazing year amazing video

juice xxx travis drake & eminem carried the year

Bro why tf do i feel so damn depressed watching this??

DRIP SEASON 3 CHANGED MY LIFE TILL THIS DAY ‼️‼️‼️

i love these vids about rap years, cant wait for 2019, pop smoke and nle choppa

This was one of my biggest years in my music career too, although I never reached the heights of many mentioned artists - I sold out a show for Mike Jones & a few other major artists at this time so it was pretty dope for me.

Bro I fucking forgot about wide neck holy shit

Music,video games,movies,memes, man 2017-2018/19 had it all man, I will for sure always miss those simpler days back when the internet was simpler and fun

I been relistening to all this music since og fortnite back

Back when no jumper was mostly about underground rap lol

Miss the SoundCloud era

It always be the quick songs that pop

2018 era was great..

Yall remember this mf Lil pump?💀 damn i almost forgot this dude

Can’t believe people are already nostalgic for 2018

We need a seperate Video just about Juice.

I want this year back

I wrote a short paper for college back in 2021 about music and its influence on society and talked a bit about the SoundCloud era if anyone wants to read it. 😄 Amazing videos dude, I just watched the 2017 one before this, so much nostalgia packed in!! 2017 and 2018 were my favorite years ever so far.

2017-2019 was preak

I wish lil skies kept his huge numbers. I still listen to him since 2017

I love that the algorithm is pushing videos from smalleer creators atm. Great Video keep it going!

i still get chills when i see, hear, think abt x death ts make me so emotional.

Laurel

Lil Mosey Northbest album had no misses 😭

I really think ski mask can be the one to bring back SoundCloud rap attention

Great year

W Vid

Edventually we will all be missing todays era of rap. We need to learn to enjoy the present before it's gone.

The best time to do so with OG Fortnite You have to do 2020 next even though we would skip 2019, it will be 4 years since 2020 and that year was too crazy and had so many events in every field apart from rap

2018 was the best man I miss it

the shi started in 2016 and ended in 2018

Kids See Ghosts made a good project. The rise of 6ix9ine and Blueface was also interesting

fire video but no mention of 6ix9ine at all!??? Thats crazy 😂

LLJW😢

2018 my year

Ooh bands bands bands that's that check talkin

I liked 2018 Because we had so many sounds in the mainstream that was so accepted for what it was Emo,Street,Melodic,Plug everything was good and fun My playlist was a mix of everything Xxxtentacion,Lil Baby,Lil Skies,Lucki,Juice wrld,Youngboy,Famous Dex,Lil Uzi,Ugly god,Travis Scoot and so many other 😂

facts

RIP JUICE WRLD

Skies ran 2017-18

I Bought A LOT of Albums in 2018

Do 2020 next I honestly believe that’s the best year for hip hop easily rivals 2018 and 16

2018 was the last good year for independent artists

id give 2020 the legendary title as well. Lockdown music stuff came, fortnite was in a good shape as well.
