The true test will be one of time. Will anyone remember this stuff
20 years from now?

Well, yes, they will. Rap and Hip Hop has been around since the '70s
and Gangsta Rap since the '80s, and some of that stuff is still
"remembered" today.

As a genre yes, but hardly any of that material from the 70's and
eighties is still played or performed today. Certainly not here anyway,
not even by those who bough the CD's IME :-)
Perhaps it is somewhere? I'd bet not that widespread though.
