THEN VS NOW RAPPERS #xxxtentacion #hiphop #rip

WITH LOVE TO THE CULTURE – THEN VS NOW RAP TRIBUTE

This video was made with absolute respect and love for both eras of hip-hop — the golden age that laid the foundation and the new generation that's redefining it. Whether you're riding with Tupac, Biggie, Nas, and Wu-Tang… or vibing with Lil Baby, NBA YoungBoy, Polo G, and Yeat — this is a moment to appreciate the evolution of rap.

No hate, no comparison — just celebration.
