If a “Hip Hop Savior” ever materialized, would they be accepted with open arms?
A lot of people bitch about hip hop dying but whenever someone comes around who could help it off its death bed….they get hated on so much that they just give up i.e. Lupe Fiasco. If a Hip Hop Savior ever materialized, what qualities would they need and would they truly be graciously accepted or would they just be criticized and lambasted until the disappear Dave Chapelle style?

No because no artist will ever be accepted by everyone.

I don't think 1 artists can ever be accepted a "savior". It takes a team of artists to bring about a full scale movement like that imo.

Exactly. Most people (like myself) would sit around questioning his credentials and his "Savior Catalogue".

Nobody will ever be universally accepted. But, the qualities that would make him very successful are:
Commercial appeal
Technical ability (flow/wit emphasized over everything else)
Songwriting ability
A strong image
Knows when to STFU (in times of controversy and drama and other things), and give good interviews.

Even if it is impossible, Who do you think came the closest to being the utopian “hip hop savior” ?

I dont think any MC could every embody the nature of every type of person. That individual would need to be God-like, and have walked all paths of life.

Lol!
Pac touched a lot of people though. A LOT. People you dont even expect to, they listen to Pac. I'm not a fan, but the man is undeniable in this spot.

Jay-Z ISNT a hip hop savior because he doesnt move people like that. Yes he makes good uptempo/party songs and hes versatile but a lot of people question his heart.
Pac was that. DMX had a chance too...
Lupe is another but to a certain extent...

Never. People would never 100% accept a "hip hop savior." Too much ego.

There is no one artist capable of saving hip-hop. Only the fans can save hip-hop, were the ones who keep it alive and well.
