Official Rap and Hip Hop Topic

[Flesh-n-Bone]

Hi, I used to like hip-hop. More the commercial side of it, never underground. Anyway, I'd like to get back into some of it, not really the commercial stuff but it's okay I suppose. I haven't heard everything from the people I say I like below (apart from Tupac, I think I've heard just about every one of his songs), so certain songs of theirs would be good to hear. Please post suggestions.

 

People I liked:

 

Just the usual rappers people like as a young teen.

 

Tupac

Nas

The Game

Jay Z

Freeway

Dr. Dre

Ice Cube

N.W.A

 

People I didn't like:

 

Chamillionaire

50 Cent

Cassidy

Notorious B.I.G

Eminem

 

By the way, I'd like to know what the difference is between different types of hip hop like East Coast, West Coast, South, I dunno many more so could someone explain the difference as well as examples of rappers.

 

Thanks

You have my taste, I like these rappers (not much Jay, Game or Freeway) And I DIDN'T like 50, cham, eminem and biggie. Cassidy I've hardly heard him to judge. The difference between the locations is style and "rep yo set". That's about it, lyrically they have different subjects etc....

Yeah... 50 Cent sucks.. Just because some new artist comes out with a new album. He'd go initiate a beef with them within the first few months. I mean come on.. look at Mims, just released "This Is Why I'm Hot" back then. 50 goes off and says you a wannabe-gangsta. Yeah right, and he's a straight up gangsta too.

It's like, L.A. rappers against New York rappers.. the main hotspots.

How the f*ck anyone can not rate B.I.G. is beyond me.

f*cking Akon. That c*nts as bad as TPain.

 

Haven't had anything new to listen to lately in terms of hip hop, waiting for Atmosphere's When Life Gives You Lemons, You Paint That sh*t Gold, which is out next month.

Just what I was going to say.

 

Saying that one of your favourite rappers is The Game and then placing B.I.G. under the "Rappers I Don't Like" list is rather ludicrous.

 

Ready To Die is a f*cken classic.

Thank you to whoever posted this.

One of the best songs of B.I.G was Notorious Thugs ft. Bone Thugs -N- Harmony, which was also a subliminal diss track to Three 6 Mafia back then. Also Biggie changed his flow to match BNTH's

Mehh, i prefered the original version that Biggie made.

Spit Your Game produced by Swizz Beats, had a beater beat I find.

I was listening to freestyles and Cassidy got a lot of talent, but his cds trash. Also I heard he's a changed man. Anyway here is an old video of him freestylin.

Maybe your too mainstream lol

[EasyTiger]

 

 

Great song and I love the bit at the start, "nah not you blud"

[D Jones]

White rappers? I'd check out Eyedea. He is more of a battle rapper than a lyrical one though.

 

Anybody ever listen to Duo Live?

[TommyVercetti.]

Actually I'll just say I did not enjoy the song...

[Blind Joe Death]

Yeah, I've seen it before, he's pretty good.

 

Especially with Jay-Z. I don't think I could tell the difference between the two.

Thats whats up. 3-6 Mafia used to be the sh*t back then when they always did songs with Project Pat.

[niccOGan]

Yeah for real project pat, koopsta knicca, scarecrow, and skinny pimp were what made 3 6 so good. Now that most of them are gone it seems Juicy J and DJ Paul's verses sound the same in every song.

Yeh for real. I bought one of their old cds and I couldn't help but listen to every song about 8 times each.

Spray Paint & Ink Pens - Lupe Fiasco ft Mike Shinoda & Ghostface Killah

[ryuclan]

Wow that sh*t is pretty hot. I might just buy his new album.
