Dre 2pac are utter garbage greatest ever lived is
K-Rino

K-Rino poops all over 2pac in terms of talent. Like comparing a Nissan Micra to Ferrari Enzo.

You know many rappers admit hes the best ever in smaller interviews too?. Like the interviews with rap magazines.

He has offered serious I mean serious money to the likes of Eminem Jay-Z all the other big names to battle rap him and they all refuse. Know they will get rinsed he will slaughter them.

He never became a household name as he has integrity; refuses to sell out and is a religious man non materialistic man. He cares not for money. Why should he?. He knows money cant buy one ounce of happiness.

Heres an example

Jay Z is a billionaire and is married to Beyoncé. I really don’t think he cares about someone trying to out rap him.

He’s no Snoopy Dogg Dog.

6IX9INE is everything that's wrong with hip-hop/rap

A literal gangster only just out of prison for armed assault, covered in tattoos and fits as many big arsed women as possible in his videos to attract attention. His song from last month has 430 million views. With role models like this guy no wonder there's so many toerag kids around. Oh and his songs are all autotuned shyte but you probably guessed that.

A lot of people will argue that at its core rap is just rot, a playground for degeneracy and people like him represent its evolution

Watched a good 4 part documentary about the Wu Tang Clan on Sky Arts last week. Was never into them but I enjoyed the doc.

I'm a big fan of 6ix9ine, and if there's one thing he isn't, it's a gangster.

Here's a contemporary rapper who doesn't fall into any of the tropes. This could have been released in the mid-90s. I love this guy.

I've never identified with most of rap. I don't know about living in the hood with everyone around me addicted to crack and people being murdered and going in and out of prison. I watch Louis Theroux documentaries to find out about that stuff.

Song lyrics are poetry set to music. The fact that it's such a huge industry means the topics they rap about reflects real life for millions and millions of people around the world. And that's a genuinely terrible situation.

He was a member of the bloods, what does that make him?

I'll get into rap when gangbangers in LA start wearing natty waistcoats and belt out Wagon Wheel in the back of the low rider while cruising the hood.

You are so ill informed.

Hiphop came from NewYork. "Gangster rap" came out of LA. Listen to something like Jazzmatazz by GURU completely flips your thought process on its head. :cool:

Anyone can make music now, all you need is a laptop, a mic,
free software .
A free account on youtube or soundcloud.
So theres no quality control. in the 80,s ,or the 90,s you had to pay to go into
a recording studio ,you needed to perform music in a club or a venue to get
an audience.you had to have some talent or musical ability to get a record contract with sony ,or emi or some indie music company .
theres rappers who make music about hoes and using drugs or being in a gang.
IF you want to hear complex sensitive music about equal rights and respecting women and feminism maybe you should not be listening to rap music .
Theres more music by female rappers and music of different genres getting in to the charts.
Rap is like 70 s punk, anyone can try it , it does not require great lyrical skill or a great voice to be a rapper

Its becoming hard to separate rap from the way some people just come off nowadays that’s the real worry, when it transcends music into a new form of pidgin. We see it utilised all the time in marketing and what not due to its ultimately bland, inoffensive nature I mean it’s impossibly easy on the ear and unchallenging. Talking about the ‘instrumental’ versions of course otherwise atypically riddled with expletives and jive, talk
