Hopsin's been in a salty mood lately. He recently stormed of the set of a live TV appearance, and his fourth studio album The Pound Syndrome didn't exactly set the world on fire.
Last night, the 30-year old took out more of his frustrations on Twitter, arguing that the rap game is lacking in originality, and that Drake "ain't Hip Hop." He also blasted trap music and the materialism of rap, saying it has "completely ruined black culture." See his social media rant below:
The difference between me and other rappers is i actually care about earth and expanding our minds.

I'm probably the only rapper genuinely hitting subjects that will make u think about what the hell is really going on in this world — Hopsin (@hopsin) August 13, 2015
I'm the only rapper who had the balls to publicly question God and religion without being afraid of what it would make me look like.

I'm truly the hip hop sinister in the eyes of the mainstream world. I've seen them turn you all into dumb assess one by one — Hopsin (@hopsin) August 13, 2015
They are quick to tell me to find my own style, yet every single rapper on the radio sounds EXACTLY the same. Same trap beats and all

I have no anger towards where my career is. I'm a self made millionaire, own my label and have a beautiful house and Girlfriend. — Hopsin (@hopsin) August 13, 2015
This rap game has and always will be on some bullshit though

Drake is the hottest rapper in the game. He got exposed and we saw that he has a ghost writer and he's still at the top. This ain't hip hop — Hopsin (@hopsin) August 13, 2015
Almost Every popular rapper right now started rapping about 2 years ago.

The rap and porn industry are the only professions where you don't have to have skills to get in it. — Hopsin (@hopsin) August 13, 2015
Play a whack song two times and it's still whack. Play that same whack song 20 more times and it's a nation wide hit. Mainstream techniques — Hopsin (@hopsin) August 13, 2015
When's the last time you've heard a real song on the radio (subject wise) that didn't deal with money, bitches, drugs and love? — Hopsin (@hopsin) August 13, 2015
I get clowned for being myself. I'm 30, I rap, I'm a goofball, I wear white contacts, skateboard and watch family guy religiously. — Hopsin (@hopsin) August 13, 2015
Every other mc in the game is IDENTICAL! Flossing money. Making club appearances to look fly. Rapping over rap beats. Buying expensive shit — Hopsin (@hopsin) August 13, 2015
Id rather be a 30 year old weirdo than be a fuckin replica of every other human being in my society — Hopsin (@hopsin) August 13, 2015
Most these idiots in the game are far from a real nigga. They have completely ruined the black culture with their bullshit — Hopsin (@hopsin) August 13, 2015
Thank u rap game. Thank u america. Thank u hip hop fans. I'll go back to being corny now. Youguys go back to your dumb trap music. — Hopsin (@hopsin) August 13, 2015
There's a lot to unwind here. But what do you think of Hopsin's words?
