yall see what im saying now?
the lines are blurred.
RZA is one of the most famous and highly regarded and imitated producers of all time. Meanwhile the average person has no clue who produced those Bone hits. But Wu had no impact...
Anybody used to post on the source boards remember dude named DOD Killa?
rza was also a rapper and the spokesman/leader of the group.
u-neek was just a producer. a dude that liked to play the background low-key and didnt have the benefit of being from the media capital.
It's funny the threadstarter thought he could rack up his stats by making this thread that went platinum on sohh years ago. Thing is, that was years ago. Back then there probably...PROBABLY... was still some type of debate. Even though, back then, it still was clear Wu had the bigger and better impact on the game, but it wouldn't be jaw droppingly stupid to debate the two groups. Now, in 2013, it's just stupid to even try to compare Bone with Wu. Wu already cemented themselves as hip hop and global icons and have some type of relevancy, and Bone are almost nowhere to be found. No big time guest appearances. No albums. None of the members are making waves with business ventures. And the threadstarter should've realized this. His attempt at getting a diamond thread is gonna be futile cause too many people know the truth, Bone fan or not.
this makes absolutely no sense.
if this was comparable years ago, then its still comparable now.....unless you practice revisionist history.
its not like wutang has done anything to improve their ranking in the past 12 years. meanwhile, bone actually did further their legacy in this timeframe. the past 6 years even.
so if this argument shifts anywhere over the course of time, logically it should shift in favor of bone thugs. not wutang.
Look up, Flaco.
Wu have 7 legit rap hits as a group. The kinda rap hits that people know the words to and still ring out present day.
bone thugs has more than 7 legit rap hits.
btw, only on the internet are songs like "shadow boxing" mentioned in the same breath as "1st of the month".
Because they're schticky. Fast rappin is fast rappin is fast rappin.
I don't be wantin' fast rappin too much anymore.
this goes to show that you havnt listened to any of their music in the past 16 years.
I'm 29 and from NY. You don't know what the fukk you are talking about. Stick to the Jay-Z stannery, breh
hes speaking on his peers. not yours.
lol @ you being 29 years old.
double lol @ you hanging around 20 years olds half the time. not surprised at that one.
How did I think I was gonna rack up stats..I say whatever's on my mind and I don't care if someone made this post years ago on sohh...I've never been on sohh and I don't even really know what that is..I wasn't trying to have hella replies about the same old shyt..
The fact is bone are superior rappers..double time rhyming is the hardest skill and they mastered that, along with singing..not too many rappers can rap like that..only the elite..
I win
you can tell alot of these dudes didnt get into rap like that until the 2000s.
in the mid-'90s, the most generic arguments were pac vs big, death row vs bad boy, east vs west, and for groups it was bone thugs vs wutang.
whether someone thinks bone is better or wu is better is one thing. but people in here brushing this off as a troll thread are clearly living under a rock.
I love how the OP immediately disqualified Wu's solo albums, knowing full well if you include them there's no logical argument that Bone had more of an impact than the Wu.
you cant disqualify something that never qualified to begin with.
ranked pretty high on the damn charts,classic song off the Art Of War...wuz u locked up or just in NY at the time
the boy wuz deadly...I don't know how u writin twista off against these nikkas like he a bum...don't get me wrong I'm last to say technical ability trumps all but Twsistas no slouch in any department...but a hell no to Rae and a fuk no and a no to Gza and no mention of Meth? U obviously see sumthin in them as rappers I never found impressive...ghostface alright with me but I'm not wowed by what he's saying or wowed on a technical level by him,give me one or the other or both.
at dudes in here mentioning any ole Bone tracks as "hits". Don't nobody know half the shyt ya'll listing. And it's funny how ya'll keep mentioning a Biggie track, where he murdered them with their own style. Wu >>>>>>>>>>
