Common Lists His "Chicago Mount Rushmore" | Kanye, Lupe, Twista, Durk & Chance The Rapper

[Jesus H. Christ]

Durk has no business being in the list. Chief keef definitely needs to be there. Changed the entire landscape and had Chicago drill rappers get legit money. That's not ignore the likes of King Louie or LEP.

How we feeling about bump J, do or die, Crucial Conflict and LEP?

I swear my cousin's love Polo G.

Or am I just

DoD, bump J, crucial conflict and LEP are underground legends to me.

The avg chi town dude probably holds them in a higher regard than somebody like common or lupe or chance , but they never really crossed over(crucial conflict might be an exception).

Chance made no impact with his music locally or nationally, so that’s definitely just a personal preference for Common.

it’s Twista, Chief Keef, Kanye, Common

A family member put me on to this track as a kid, Chicago rappers are cold but yesterdays rapper were colder.

Back From the Dead, Almighty So, Back From the Dead 2, and even Finally Rich >>>>>> anything Durk ever made.

All them flopped ass, bum ass tapes that nobody checked for, besides his first album

Yall trying to re write history like Keef been it for 10 years

dude had a two year run then it was silence

 

[reserved_one]

If I had a choice between Durk and Keef…I would go with Keef only because he ushered in a new wave that birthed some of the most popular rappers of the 10’s. He literally changed the direction of hip hip overnight.

But I’ll say that I’m not the biggest Durk fan but I respect his grind and overachieving to become what he is today.

This politically correct Ngga would name five people for a mt Rushmore

Real answer: Kanye, Common, Twista, Chief Keef

Common and Twista held it down for YEARS when nobody cared about rap from Chicago. Kanye for obvious reasons

Then it gotta be Chief Keef. You can’t place Durk ahead of the originator

Lupe is squeezed out by Keef. Lupe just doesn’t have any impact

Chance doesnt merit a response

 

[Braman]

Durk got like 4 platinum albums, he passed keef up along time ago, and he had the streets for a good three years

Nah it’s difrent bruh. Durk has the ‘streets’ bc he’s active. Keef got nggas hearts

Keef pulled some shyt I never seen, had an old ass song that just blew up again out of nowhere. Purely on some ‘yo do yall remember how hard that shyt was’. Faneto is bigger than any Durk song ever. Even the Drake shyt. The response to that song years later, as fickle as rap is now? Yea that shows you everything

As we just learned from Drake and kendrick, more active does not mean more loved.

You coulda said that like 2 years ago but Keef pulled some shyt I never seen, had an old ass song that just blew up again out of nowhere. Purely on some ‘yo do yall remember how hard that shyt was’. Faneto is bigger than any Durk song ever. Even the Drake shyt. The response to that song years later, as fickle as rap is now? Yea that shows you everything

As we just learned from Drake and kendrick, more a matter if does not mean more loved.

So because he had a old song get hot off of tik tok or something the negates Durk having 3 or 4 times the career than him

I'm not denying Keef's legacy and impact in 2012 but yall cant name anything he has done notable in music after 2015 that 10 years ago, Durk done put out 4 plat albums since then and had the streets. I seen the chief keef album threads up here they barely get 10 15 replies

If they both dropped a album today. Durk album gonna sell more, gonna be better and gonna have more impact


I respect keef legacay and his impact on the game so i'm not trying to shyt on him but I think yall got Durk run fukked up
