The Hip Hop Thread

[snake]

For the record let me just say I am not a fan of the movements, however we all say they ruined hip hop when in fact they probably made more money then any other period before hand when talking about artists in the same section.

Does money = success? another argument for another day.


oh and btw, there is still good music coming out. Its jsut a matter of turning off the radio and knowing where to get your shit. example? ok, well let me say I have never heard of Mims and im still yet to hear his track. The same goes for that hang your chain low crap or whatever it was..I have NEVER heard the songs. The same is said for fitty cent and his group of arrogant monkeys who I cant name let alone listen to their music.

i dont really give a sh1t what people say about the radio.

i listen to some radio and get some good songs and i go to some websites and hear some artists who aren't well known who are just as good

but in 6 days time i will buy my first album in years.

Bone Thugs is Back Baby. well once bizzy gets back, then they really back.

armed and dangerous, ain't too many can bang with us
Straight up weed no angel dust, label us Notorious

 

[minterke]

Bone Thugs doin' a bunch of sh1t with Akon lately or what? This is the 2nd or 3rd song I've heard. The other one's called Never Forget Me or sumthin ever hear it?

 

[Enzo]

mikey, ull love bone thugs mate, trust me.

ecstacy.
notorious thugs
thug luv
breakdown
crossroads (greatest tribute song, RIP eazy)
for the love of money
thuggish ruggish bone
days of our lives
no surrender

listen to those tracks, and you will fall in love with them.

oleguer you mentioned how biggie covered everything (r n b, hip hop, clubs)....well bone thugs did as well.

once bizzy and flesh get home, they gonna dominate the game (again).

btw that new fiddy song is a real ****in banger!

 

[Choppin Onions]

enzee, you have some good taste bro. I'm contemplating buying the new Bone Thugs too. I still remember E 1999 like it was yesterday and they were on top of the game. Songs I listend to by BTNH the past couple days:

I Tried (not classic Bone but a damn good song regardless)
If I could teach the World
Crossroads
1st of that month (my favorite BTNH track ever)
Thug Luv
Ghetto Cowboy (Krayzie and Layzie)
Notorious Thugs (dont know anyone that dislikes this song. pure fire with biggie)

 

[snake]

I like a couple of bone thug tracks, but generally I find them annoying..along with the mo thugs.


i actually rate individual releases from btnh more then the collabs.

 

[Khalifa]

bone thug lovers..all these songs and NO " WEED SONG " ....ur kidding me.

 

[UhUhOleguer]

Bones is cool...didn't really feel them back then, but over time I grew to like them.
Crossroads, 1st of tha month are the shit..

 

[La Bling]

Man your from the east coast how could you forget NaS and Biggie??

I don't know why, but I don't really like either of their music. For Biggie, I respect him more as a man than a rapper.

 

[Gaetan]

bro...biggie killed bone thugs on their own shit...

armed and dangerous, ain't too many can bang with us
Straight up weed no angel dust, label us Notorious

yeahhhhh, my boy mahdi holdin' it down. no need for me to even further compare Biggie and Bone Thugs. Biggie outshines them at their own shit.

 

[Gaetan]

Jay-Z came close...but everyone else who tried that failed.

Nas being a hypocrite or not..who gives a damn? He is lyrically almost unmatched....and Nastradamus would have been even a bulshit album if it was done by diddy..

Oh....and Clipse, Ghost and Lupe definetly had albums of the year..

I don't know or care enough to quote enzee about Nas, but I'm sorry, It Was Written was a great album and I find it scary that we have such a different outlook on it. I obviously respect his knowledge and take what he says seriously, but I can honestly say that I find IWW to be his most complete work and I listen to it almost as much as I listen to Illmatic.

Other then that, Lupe had the album of the year, followed by Nas, IMO.

 

[Enzo]

it's all good gaetan. my hatred for nas is too deep though, i just hate the guy.

anyway, i was on myspace the other looking at some djs.

check out dj rex ppl, he's awesome!

 

[K.I.]

I dont like nas either,WAY overrated.

Hell yeah bro Illmatic wasn't even that much better than IWW that's some underrated shit. And enzee I have all those Bone Thugs songs bro I was just talking bout there more recent sh1t.

speaking of all these coallitions and shit, I never really got cypress hill. I don't understand half the sh1t those mexicans are talking about anyone else get what I'm saying?

 

[minterke]

I dont like nas either,WAY overrated.

umm..

Akon is pretty cool,

Very hard for me to take you seriously bro..

 

[K.I.]

Man whatever who said that akon is a rapper?or that even he is skilled,he is a singer,my favourite hip hop is cypress hill/Soul Assassins/Def squad/Wu tang/gang starr,anything other than that to me is the same.

I have never been a fan of nas and will never be,pun,krs and big MURDER him lyrically and he goes around talking that he is the best,lol illmatic is ONE album out of his whole catolgue,come on man....i dont like pac either for the record.

 

[Choppin Onions]

What's wrong with Akon mike? The guy is on fire right now and people don't like him because of that alone

 

[minterke]

Where did I diss Akon? lol

I'm just saying someone who is impressed with Akon but doesn't like Nas is something I just don't understand bro. Akon's good for listening in the car here in there just like Lil Weezy is but I don't go around praising them.

Khaled, I respect your knowledge or whatever but I've barely listened to KRS-One (I'm not really all the fond of those oldschool sounding beats), I'm a big fan of WTC, Biggie AND Tupac but Nas appeals to me and alot of other people more than all of them.

Illmatic is one album but IWW is another one and so is Stillmatic and Godson.

 

[K.I.]

I said akon is cool,but yah you dont like krs,i dont like nas,its all tastes.
