Brockhampton is popular because their sound is so refreshing. Each of their songs are so distinguishable and dynamic and the amount of collective talent that they have is some of the greatest I've ever seen, and what you're saying at the end there is a hyperbole and a generalization.

First Death Grips song on thread?
Everyone generalizes though, it's part of our nature. And that's where trends come from, that's also the issue with alot of stuff either being before its time or being too edgy.
I've heard countless of people who only listen to SuicideBoy$ and I think most of their songs are overrated with a few exceptions, same with Lil Tracy & Lil Peep and that whole crowd.
It's the expansion of rap but yet it's still all quite a similar sound with not alot of varation.
Look at the graphics and look at the way it's filmed in general, old VHS sorta graphics, it's all the trend now.
They might be good according to you but refreshing is a term that's also completely related to the person themselves because I've heard so much of this rap for years that it's the same old same old to me, I'm not hating on you but it's literally what I hear all the time.
I'll still listen to some of these songs, especially since they are late night bangers for when I'm smoking and/or drinking.
But I feel the same with Oliver Francis and other clout rappers, I prefer their sad sounding songs that are kinda melo-dramatic like this.
Rate either 1 of them or both, I don't mind but I can see you have quite an unique taste.
I don't mind Death Grips that much either, the parts around 1:00 are actually really good with flow and lyric wise.
