One thing about hip hop in 2022 is there's a new emphasis on shared/collective identity. 

That's not necessarily bad, but a lot of hip hop artists have the same really lukewarm hype. The focus is on the culture, not the music. Even Tyler's "Call Me If You Get Lost" was an attempt to be a part of hip hop culture.

We've been inclusive at times, but we try to maintain quality because lowering the bar shouldn't make indifference towards the genre
