I can tell by your post that you don't hate. You're providing a good example for others.




You are a smart lad Goldrush.

Puffy doesn't even write his own rhymes, or recite them that well.
Lauryn hill shouldn't be there on longevity alone, but she is so underrated maybe the greatest female MC ever. Maybe it's too early for Kendrick but he's well on his way to being one of the best.

It's aged me that's for sure.

Maybe I'm a premature curmudgeon. I'm really not a horrible person, I just don't think a rapper's mom dying of natural causes is necessarily thread worthy.

Of course, rebeloke threads exist so who am I to judge.

I still think that Tupac dying elevated his fame to a higher level than his talent

You should stop posting about rap. You should feel bad about this post.

You have no fricking clue what you are talking about kid. Do you know what spun off from NWA? The sheer talent alone is mind boggling.

Can't get more ghetto than Sausalito. She kept it real after her son was killed.

Jon B and Tupac "Are you still down" is one of the greatest jams of all time.

Pumped that in my Pontiac Grand Am in late 90s in high school. Got the ladies going.

"Kid" here... I grew up on this music and stand by my statement

The members of NWA were great collectively but as stand alone MCs, they were not the best ever. The best MC to come out of NWA was Ice Cube and I wouldn't put him in the top-10

Tupac's lyrics and flow ruled rap from his debut in "Same Song" by Digital Underground.

FWIW: Tupac has sold FOUR times as many albums. NWA (10 mil) to Tupac's (41 mil)

That's a far less idiotic stance than saying she's "garbage" and that putting her on an all time rappers list is "PC crap" or whatever recycled bullshite term you used.

recommend a song to back up your statement man because I have never really liked her as a rapper. The Fugees album was great but would need more for her to make my top-10 list

ETA: ok so she is good but I still do not think she is a top-10 rapper

I swear that while reading that thought-provoking balladry I witnessed a unicorn prancing on the back lawn as a rainbow appeared on the horizon. I was brought to tears.
