he's right to a degree. ak wasnt gettin love like that on sohh or coli. we only ride with him heavy now cus he made something of himself :skip:
I'm saying tho... the nikka obviously still rock with thecoli. I know he was peeping that Chance/DNC thread when he tossed out that idea that Chance has ties to the group that bailed SoundCloud out with that investment.

I dont see why ya'll hate Nadeska so much and before I make an obvious conclusion about it...lemme check out some old episodes to see if I get it. I do agree she be petty with joe sometimes when joe always talking over her or rushing her through the the topics but its really not as bad as yall make it seem. Some of ya'll damn near come off as BOTHERED by her very presence.

i didnt wanna go that route but thats really what it sounds like. i do agree she's bland but shes suppose to be the moderator so i dont expect much from her in that regards

Your reasoning behind me not liking Nedeska's professionalism is childish. She's just bad at her job. The moderator's job is to know when to engage, move on to the next topic or stay on a topic if Joe/AK are making their points or being entertaining.

The reality is, Joe and AK are not going anywhere. So, make the show better by getting a moderator who isnt afraid of their job and doesn't get emotional when twitter nerds go at them.

Budden a fukking dikkhead 3 out of the 4 shows every week. Even Boodeska was like 'Can you not be an a$$hole on my birthday :dwillhuh:'

Don't know how they deal with dude

She takes things way too personal.

:mjlol: @ Joe complaining about topics but not providing any input for what he wants to discuss.

nikka clearly just rolls into Complex's building, goes to the pre-production meeting, and goes on the show winging everything. Of course you not going to be informed on shyt, cause you not interjecting any feedback as to what you want to talk about.

Dude just collecting a check. If he really wanted the show to be great, he would care more and change the regular cycle of artists that they discuss. Honestly, the shyt should be like a live action hiphop forum, with a mix of current news going on, and then just general hiphop topics that hiphop fans all know about.

For example, when the word 'Stan' got put in the dictionary based off of Eminem's song, they should have had the same discussion that we had on here. Whether or not Eminem or Nas made that term what it is today in hiphop culture. They didn't even talk about it at all.

I swear I could come up with better topics to just talk about related to hiphop than they have... and that's just from being on boards for over a decade.

Joe is supposed to provide a balance, but Complex and AK's fanbase and interests are overpowering the discussions they have because Joe isn't doing shyt about it.

:manny:

He's told them he doesn't want to talk pop culture or about the same 7 rappers every show. Yet, production continues to bring up those topics. Which is why Nedeska struggles doing her job when she's already is bad at it, and we get shyt comments from Joe.

They really need to change their topics.

And I'm sure he doesn't give any suggestions on what topics he wants to discuss anyway, so like I said, of course he's not going to have many topics his way when it's COMPLEX show and AK is familiar with all the shyt that COMPLEX wants to put out there.

Joe crying during the show doesn't mean he's actually formulating ideas/concepts and discussions behind the scenes. That's probably why Nadeska can't stand his shyt cause she knows he ain't putting in any work, and he's just up there playing a character when she's preppin'/researching shyt and Joe just comes in oblivious to everything.

"I don't want to talk about this" - Joe through 80% of the show

Akademiks needs to start standing up for himself, watching him be Joe's punching bag is getting annoying.
There were about two instances where Joe talked himself into a corner with no way out and then turned it back to Nadeska and Akademiks just let it slide.

That's because Ak is mentally an 18 year old. He wants to be one of those nikkas so bad. He's pushing 30 and is the spokesman for teen rappers.

An 18 year old can see through Joe Budden's bullshyt, I can't tell if Ak just doesn't have a backbone or if Ak is just intimidated by Joe.
AK carries himself like a child. A GROWN ass man with a grown man mentality ain't goin' when Joe talks like that. He talks to act like a child because that's how he carries himself.

joe budden hates talking about the same rappers but hate talking about new rappers. They cant win and im a joe budden fan. Dude needs to chill out. When they cater to him he gives a quick a 1 sec answer with no depth. Like the black question. Its a valid question. He wants to joke around everything and attack AK. Its stupid. The show is great when they both speak about the topic one after the next.

I feel sorry for Cyn and that baby

akademiks just doesn't have that in him to really combat joe. on top of not really knowing shyt, he doesn't have any conviction in his arguments.

rory and mal don't have that problem because they're confident enough in themselves and that what they're saying is right which is why joe doesn't punk them as much as joe punks ak.

Thank you my nikka. shyt has me confused. This nikka posted on the coli for years and never soaked up any rap knowledge and somehow has the music interests of a 15 year old.
