Im huge a fan of rap, but the one person that got me listening to it was the greatest ARTIST ever (imo) Tupac Shakur, but he as you know is dead...(some say he\'s not).
Anyways, with the absence of 2Pac who actually rapped about something that had to do with real life, instead of today\'s rappers....WTF?! is up with there songs??, Cash Money, Dr. Dre has lost it, Snoop Dogg is a damn sell-out,
Today\'s rap theme: Getting "ass" and Smoking "weed".
No one the raps today is any good, there lyrics suck big time....here\'s an example:
2Pac Shakur (Changes, Album: Greatest Hits):
"I see no changes, wake up in the morning and I ask myself
Is life worth living, or should I blast myself
I\'m tired of being poor, and even worse I\'m black
my stomach hurts, so I\'m looking for a purse to snatch
Cops give a damn about a negro
pull a trigger, kill a nigger, he\'s a hero
Givin back to the kids, who the hell cares
one less hungry mouth on the welfare
first ship them dope, let them deal to brothers
give them guns, step back and watch them kill each other
It\'s time to fight back, that\'s what Huey said
2 shots in the dark, now Huey\'s dead
I got love for my brothers
but we can never go nowhere unless we share with each other
we gotta start makin changes
learn to see me as a brother instead of 2 distant strangers
and that\'s how it\'s supposed be
how can you tell them take a brother if he\'s close to me
I\'d love to go back to when we played as kids
but things change, and that\'s the way it is"
Artist: Big Tymers f/ Lil\' Wayne, Juvenile
Album: I Got That Work
Song: # 1 Stunna
"Nigga can\'t out-stunt me when I come in these ****in\' cars, nigga
Believe that!
You know me - I don\'t need no introduction and ****
Ride Bentley\'s \'round the city on buttons, ya *****
Arm hangin\', wrist blingin\' - just stun\'n and ****
Drop the top
Block is hot
Stay bumpin\', ya *****
When B. Atrice get it right, don\'t tangle and twist it
Hit the club every night, drunk - drinkin\' that Crissy
Niggas mad - don\'t like it \'cause I\'m bangin\' they *****es
When the light hit the ice, it twankle and glistens
Baby, Brian, B., Bubba - you can call me what you feel
Hoppin\' out the platinum Hummer with the platinum grill
With the platinum pieces, and the platinum chains
With the platinum watches, and the platinum rings (platinum rings)
That **** ain\'t changed
Still doin\' my thing
Still do it for the block - nuts hang and swing
You don\'t know another nigga that could stunt like me (stunt like me)
Big Tymers representin\', nigga - the U.P.T."
And that was just one of 2pac\'s many great songs, then we have "Cash Money" and you sit back and think "What in the blue hell are they trying to say?!".
At first I didn\'t understand why people hate rap, well now I do.
-
I only read your thread title, but that was enough to really get me depressed.
I got all excited when you said rap had gone to hell, but then you just had to continue with "and back"
Come on rap, go to hell and stay there!!!!
I now return you to the previously scheduled thread.
-
I agree to an extent..but even if the lyrics suck..ill still buy it or DL it if I dig the beat. Also, you have to remember..alot of these guys arent doing it for the love of music..but rather the love of money.
*EDIT* Boooooo Videoholic! ;)

Yes, Booooo Videoholic!

I meant....VIDEOHOLIC RULEZ!

It matters what kind of rap your listening too.. Main stream rap for the most part does suck... I do like Timbaland\'s beat though... He make some of the most phattest beats out there..
No underground rap kicks a ss... And there are a few major label artists out there that are really good
For example.
Ming + FS
Common
Deltron 3030
Just to name a couple.. There are also some local Dj\'s and producers in my area that are really good as well..
I think its all a matter of your prespective!
~:hat:
-
2Pac rulez, too bad he ain\'t around no mo,
-
Crash Dummy Records has always been about the STUNTASIC music, which is all about flossing, something that 2pac wasn\'t about. 2pac had the realest lyrics of any artist out there, and frankly NOT a single rapper today can touch 2pacs greatness.
Cash Money is pure garbage now(Or has been to some of you), and Snoop hasn\'t had a decent album since his first one. Rap, used to be the ****, Although, its starting to get dumb. The lyrics by eminem are childish at best, even DMX is to damn commerical for some. DMX shoulda stayed undergroud, 2pac, his unreleased ****, should stay unreleased. Rap will never be the same. Timbaland is better then Dre anyways. His beats are phatter, and so are his lyrics. Bottom Line, DMX is the best rapper out there right now. No one tops him. Not even ICP.
BTW, music is all about the beats these days, if you notice, most people don\'t pay attention to the lyrics anymore. Those people have systems in their car, and all they want is, BASS tracks....
Surely half you people have Subwoofers in your cars?
2pac= Great example of a Rap artist!!!!!

ICP sux booty tho....JayZ has nice lyrics if you listen as did biggie..another great one.. Dont forget about early Wu-Tang..Common...Talib Kweli(sp)?...Q-tip and tribe called quest. 8ball and MJG have some pretty cool lyrics too when it comes to alot of their songs..southern rap yes..but much different than the rest of the dirtee south.

Insane Clown Posse is the gayest form of rap(if you wanna call it that)out today. They suck, I don\'t see why they have such a following. EightBall and MJG are pretty damn good artists, if you get the chance download the song, Pure Uncut, by Eightball, its one of his better songs, but not his best. Dirty South rap has always been better then alot of the Eastcoast, and Westcoast rap thats out.(with exception to 2pac) Common is pretty damn good, and I can\'t stand any of th Rawkus rappers except Big L(R.I.P) Wu tang has been awesome since day one. They always manage to put out album after album of quailty. Method Man is another good example of good rapper, so is Redman. Biggie, he had a few tight jams, Your nobody, Notorious Thugs, Can\'t you see, the list goes on. Rap was good in the early 90\'s, and since then, its gone downhill. Wack ass Nas anyone? Jay Z is good also. I don\'t care much for his new album, but the other albums were pretty damn good.

Bone Thugs is the best rap group ever:smokin: , much better than half that **** now

NAS, IMO..was only cool when he did Illmatic..the other 3 albums pretty much sucked..hell when Jayz tore him a new one..he couldnt even do a decent comeback. On that note..I really dig JayZ\' last one..Blueprint...to me it seems like he keeps getting better and better. Which is usually opposite for most artists, they start out good then go down hill.

Im not even gonna begin to point out where that is so untrue..I guess you are a bit biased since you are both from oHIGHo... Every since EZ died..they have sucked hard!!! I prefer Do or Die over them anyday...
-
although I hate most of the rap/hiphop/rmb ( Im a trance/techno person:D) music I have great respect for 2pac, I actually like many of his songs! :)
But you are right, people like eminem and likes just plain suck
-
whether ppl like eminem or not since he doesnt talk about anything..you cant deny the fact that he does have a sick flow.

Me bias to Bone? Nah, I used to dig them, but ever since Layzie released that dissapointing Solo album, I\'m starting to think they fell off. I have every single bone album in exsistence, with exception to Hell\'s Movie Bizzy Bones underground Solo album. I prefer Do or Die also, but I\'d rather listen to Twista then any of them. None of the bone members \'cept Krazy can hang with Twista when it comes to flow. Twista can really Rip up a track. Tip of my Tung is his best song. I take it you like Chi-Town artists Luckee? Good choice in music. I\'ll listen to older bone thugs, not the new albums, because they can\'t stack up to the older albums. Creepin on a Come up is STILL the best bone album ever produced. 2pac\'s song with Bone is pretty damn good though. So, Blueprint is that good huh? I still don\'t care for Jay Z, and I don\'t want to pay 20 bucks for the album. please give me a small review of it, and I\'ll see if its worth my money, if not I\'ll buy some 2pac. One more thing, Em has one of the sickest flows I\'ve ever heard no denying that, he\'s also the BEST freestyler out now. You should download some of his freestyles, because they are pretty damn sick. I still can\'t stand his lyrics though. They are pretty offensive, but alot of people find them funny. I just find it childish to needlessly bash all the things he does. Sorry for what I implyed about Em, but his lyics are pretty damn childish. Other then that, His flow is like no other. Bubba SparXXX is on the come up too.

Not you, was talkin to Bozco :)
But yea, I love most of the Chi-town artists..I dont know how I forgot about Twista..even his old stuff when he was Tung Twista. I cant really give you a review of Blueprint since I like almost every track for one reason or another..It is JayZ..but at the same all the songs sound different. How come you would have to pay $20 for it?.. $12.99 baybee;) or just DL it..I got DL\'d it using 56k dialup:D..took 4ever but it was free! Bubba Sparxx isnt too bad either..funny vid when they are racing tractors.
Also.lookin at your sig, I love skylines too!!! R33...R34..GTR..all of em! TopSecret Skyline = a woody

Well Im glad you know your BONE and know that they\'re from ohio, but they are still one of the greatest ever, my fav new rap artist is some guy named Tech-nine, he isnt big or anything, I hadnt heard of him till my friend played one of his songs for me, hes badass

Speaking of this, I went to the zoo last weekend and I swear to God the first three animals I saw were peeing and pooping....
Oh, and then there was the Manattee who was jerking off. I swear to God!!!
He was spinning around and around and his penis was sticking out like an arm. I didn\'t hang out to see the final product, but he was working hard.

Best rap group ever.....Beastie Boys not even close. :)

ALL MUSIC SUCKS NOW. TRL has produced the trl rock bands like KoRn, Limp bizkit, Linkin Park, POD, Puddle oF MUDE,BLINK 182, Sum 41, and all the pop stars, Nsync, bsb, britney, christina, jessica, destiney childs, I mean on and ON trl sucks donkeys _ _ LLs. And so do all the trl stars.
JAY-Z, DMX, JA RULE, AND so on. These guys a have ran out of things to say. Jay-z new album just sucks so bad and is full-blown commercial. I like eminems comedy rap. But some times he gets over ****y and annoying. But Shady got mad flow and so does d12 and I will buy anything they put out.
P. diddy(or puff-daddy) Should stop raping altogether.
Well tupac has another album coming out. So that is something to look for.
Well busta last album was a disrespect maybe his next album will be awesome may hell go all the way back to the got you all in check days.

And that was just one of 2pac\'s many great songs, then we have "Cash Money" and you sit back and think "What in the blue hell are they trying to say?!".
At first I didn\'t understand why people hate rap, well now I do.
i agree with you totally mate.......rap has gone down hill since the MAN died...its sorta like pop-rap ...i blame that wank%r puff daddy or what ever he calls him self these days

Luke is so right. MTV = PURE SHIET
I look no further than Beastie Boys, Tribe, 2Pac, and Outkast. All of which don\'t have any vids being intro\'ed by Carson Gayly at the moment.

^^^Two statements that remove any of your credibility. Jay-Z\'s latest, The Blueprint, is his best album since "Reasonable Doubt". I doubt that you have even heard it.
As for that other bullsh*t statement. D12 is a ****ing scourge on the face of he earth. They are f*cking horrible. I think that you are on Eminems nuts so anything he touches you must cling to their balls also. D12 sucks. Plain and simple. There is nothing you could say that would make me believe other wise. There album is certified garbage. Not even coaster material. I think their album went wood. Absolutely horrible.

I\'m from Boston. Does that mean I have to support every group from Boston? No. If you are wack you are wack and D12 is wack.
If anything I am hating on D12 because I never said anything bad about Eminem. D12 is garbage there are no redeeming qualities when it comes to their skills.
Also, I am convinced that you have not even heard "The Blueprint". Jay-Z ripped Nas and Prodigy in half with the Takeover. Tell me what about Jay-Z\'s new album is full out commercial? I don\'t see him running around dressed like Tom Green and making a damn fool of himself. BTW, People like you that try to define hip-hop and music in general by saying that someone is too commercial piss me off. If music is good its good.
BTW, You know sh*t about hip-hop. Just the fact that your favorite artists are Eminem and D12 show that.
Holla at me when you get some Copywrite/Wordsworth/Canibal Ox/Royce/Ras Kas/Big L/Chino XL in your system.
One.

HAHAHA LOL GOhan I never said my favorite artist was eminem I said he can FLOW. MY favorite rapper is pac and will forever be 2pac.
And yes I heard the blueprint my nephew is what you call a modern day bootleger and he gets all the cd\'s and I think the blueprint is the worst jay-z album to come out since THE DYNASTY.
The ruler\'s back IS THE only decent song on the cd Gohan I don\'t like commerical rap. Reasonable doubt was jay-z\'s best album. Volume 1 and 2 were ok after that he goes full out commerical and is just another wack rapper now.
Gohan I though you new hip hop but if you think the new jay-z is tight you saidly mistaken.

all i can say is, LONG LIVE CYPRESS HILL, THE ONLY RAPPERS WHO I CAN LISTEN TO!!! WHEEEEEE!

Well i gotta agree with the fact that rap has been sucking
but i am not the biggest rap fan and i like it only to bump in my truck for the most part :) like someone already sad
but there are some artists i like a lot
Big Moe
Lil Flip
Too Short
Easy E
Dre
UGK
Beastie Boys
Cypress Hill
MJG and 8ball
Notorious BIG
and some others
mostly though i listen to Screw - hehe most of yall have prob never even heard any of it and the Swisha house crew 0 most of you would hate it too - but thats ok i had to get use to it - its a texas thing i guess :D
-
I don\'t really give a shiz about how rap has gone "commercial" or whatever. As long as I can get on the dance floor and dance to it, It\'s all good. :)

How is Jay-Z any more "commercial" than Eminem and Tupac? You are talking BS. They all rap about the same ish. Tupac does poetry so he is the greatest of all time? He raps about the same sh*t as everyone else. Tell me a song that makes him different and I can list a similar song from another artist.
Gohan I though you new hip hop but if you think the new jay-z is tight you saidly mistaken.
Questioning MY Hip-hop knowledge? Funny when all you listen to are the "commercial" artists that you hate. Seems hypocritical.
BTW, You are one of few people that think the Blueprint is not good. I have not seen ONE bad review.

i like alot of the old and new rappers, biggie and tupac were the best though.... im buying the new jermaine dupri, three six mafia, ja rule and training day soundtrack tomorrow
-
and how the hell can a manatee jerkoff it doesnt have hands....:laughing:
-
my favorite (like you all care) is .......
KOOL KEITH aka dr. octagon aka dr. doom
the best and most uncomercial rapper of them all
-
Yeah i really liked rap...when I was twelve. About the only "artists" I respect right now would have to be Bone Thugs and Wu-Tang. They are both unique in their own way and dont spit out the normal "im black and rich and i shoot people" lyrics in every song that tons of rappers do today. To prove to you all that rap is definatley going to pieces stop and take a look at Lil\' Bow Wow and Lil\' Romeo. God help us all...

tru dat he is one of the best.
And Gohan if you think tupac is comerical there is no hope for you man tupac was a prophet and a poet. Listen to me against the world,2pacalips now, Strickly for my niggaz, All eyez on me, Makaveli, Makaveli 2000, Until the end of time, Hit\'em up. Nobody could touch pac when it came down to lyrics plain and simple. Pac spoke the truth and he was afraid to speak out against anyone.

:laughing: RAP :laughing:

:rolleyes: ddaryl :rolleyes:
quddus, a prophet? Seriously I don\'t understand why people get so attached to Tupac\'s ballsack. He was nice. One of the best ever; but you guys hype him up to be the Music Messiah and sh*t. Seriously, he can be, and has been touched in lyrics. He was very good, but far from untouchable.
BTW, He rapped about the same guns, violence, sex, money bullsh*t as everyone else. Get off his f*cking nuts. Seriously.

Rap is crap

Words of knowledge from the resident penis wart. Thank you great and wise penis wart. Tell Mrs. Penis Wart that I said hello. Oh, and pat the the baby warts on the head for me.
BTW, QuDDus, I said to explain why he was a "prophet", not come at me with an irrelevent anecdote.

tHE fact that he prodicted his own demise. Years before it happen. I mean big fact is he change his name to makaveli and did makaveli the 7 day theory rite before he died. The fact that he predicted how guys like jay-z where going to blow up with him out the game. He said how fake a lot of these rappers are. Tupac dissed nas and jay-z on a constant basis. Pac said a lot of the new york rapper where jealous and wanted him out the game and how funny it is jay-z blows up when pac gone. And when pac died jay-z gone say him and pac was cool. How fake is that? eVERYBody know pac hated jay-z and dissed him all the time.
The fact that he did numerous song saying how he got shot and murder and how he planed his death.
one song with him and Richie Rich Tupac say "Niggas done Changed"- "I\'ve been shot and murdered, can\'t tell you
In a song he did ain\'t 2 hard to find he said: I heard rumor I died, mudered in cold blood dramatized. Pictures of me in my final stages, you know mam cried, but that was fiction, some coward got the story twisted, Like I no longer existed, mysteriously missing, But I\'m worldwide baby, I ain\'t hard 2 find..."
IN the song fright night he said:I heard rumor I died, mudered in cold blood dramatized. Pictures of me in my final stages, you know mam cried, but that was fiction, some coward got the story twisted, Like I no longer existed, mysteriously missing, But I\'m worldwide baby, I ain\'t hard 2 find..."
Another song troublesome96 he said:Can you picture my specific plan? To be the man in this wicked land, underhanded hits are planned."
And in THE song White Man\'z World he said: "My time away just made perfection. You think I\'d die?"

i see.

Luk\'" eye thout u wer weth thu rebelyin!

exactly that is what I was trying to explain to gohan the man was a prophet.
-
You know i like 2Pac\'s sh!t,
imo, i think he may have believed in what he said, but he was never some mean mofo growing up, he got his "image" after the movie "Juice", then he got shot up in NY, went to jail, and got a new lease on life on the west side ;) until he got shot up for good.
He is as dead as Elvis, or JFK.

dude are you seriously trying to tell me that 2 pac saw his own death and rapped about it?
sorry vivi, talking like that takes too much thought.
-
of course he predictied his own death its was real easy
1. we all die eventually
2. the man had already been shot multiple times
3. he was a young black man living in L.A. there was a good chance he was gonna die real soon
-
OK, now it is time to remove your lips from Pac\'s nutsack. He is a prophet because he talked about himself dying? What rapper has not had a verse about himself dying? If someone tried to kill me twice do you think that I could predict my own death? Especially when I keep taunting my enemies? C\'mon now. Get a f*cking clue. Tupac was not a prophet/psychic/saint he was just a good ass rapper that had some, f*cked up in the head, fans who took everything he said to heart.
BTW, Jay never said Pac was his boy. He was just showing him love. No point in keeping beef alive when he is dead. Dre did the same thing with Easy-E and hella West Coust cats did the same thing when Biggie died.

Did you even read the verses. How many guys before they die rap about them dying exactly the way they die? How many rappers rap about there own death conspiracy before they die? How many rappers can foretell the rise of other rappers with there own demise?
Gohan your a hater.
And btw-Dre. dre and eazy just wasn\'t speakin. It was a different hate with pac and jigga. Pac hated jay-z guts. He did not like anything about him and he ripped him all the time.

Guys, it\'s just music, lets not get pi$$ed over who listens to what etc...

what, you mean getting shot? your right nobody ever dies by being shot.
weird how 2 pac rapped about being shot by a gun, AND THEN HE DID GET SHOT BY A GUN!
he must be a prophet!
pfft.
i cant believe you actually think 2 pac saw his own death.
-
I don\'t think 2pac knew exactly how he was gonna die, but he did know he wouldn\'t live for long....
thats why he recorded so many songs, so that after he did die, his message and legacy would live on.
Theres a new cd coming out called "The Lost Tapes". I think early 2002.

And? Jay never said he had love for Pac. He was just showing respect for the dead. During the Hard Knocks Life Tour he just mentioned Pac\'s name at the end and had a whole little segue involving Big, who was his good friend. Don\'t get sh*t twisted. No one but Pac\'s boys are claiming that they were cool with him, the rest are just showing respect.

I listen to basically all rap. 2 pac was actually one I did not listen to much of. I liked only one album I heard from him and that was Until The End Of Time. I listen to:
1. Eminem/D12
2. lil Romeo
3. lil Mo
4. Ja Rule
5. Afro Man ^_^
6. Ludacris
7. Mystikal
8. Nelly
9. Lil Zane
10. Nate Dog
and more but who cares..
Not all Rap is bad depending on what songs you listen to. I just like hearing people speak really fast and I make it my hobbie to memorize the Lyrics and Rap them back.
