Remembered by who?
remembered for being a great rapper or one of the best rappers from his generation to actual hip-hop fans.

when conversations come up in hip-hop circles of top 5's n all dat, if you don't resonate with black people you don't matter.

g-eazy can sell however many records he wants and make as many hits to white people as he wants but he'll never get put in the conversation with big sean, j cole, asap rocky, etc.

like i said, if he doesn't care about that, then cool. go get your money and all that.

Respect his grind but something about dude was off to me the whole episode and I waited till it was done to realize that this nikka is everything he says he's not.

Why would you say, "Innocent men don't need to defend themselves" constantly, then proceed to defend your statements constantly? Dude says rap is too sensitive, and when Ak says who do you think is trash he drops that "I fukk with everybody line" trying not to hurt feelings.

nikka says you don't need XXL but was tweeting like "RT if I should be on XXL"

Says he doesn't care about blogs but has all these saved emails from them.

"I'm not upset about shyt my life is fukking phenomenal" sounds a lot like some shyt an upset nikka would say.

Says Ak is the go-to guy for shyt and is thorough, and constantly big ups the fact both of them built their own platforms. Says he doesn't need these platforms, then at the end of the ep asks why Ak don't cover him.


Seems to me this nikka wants to be accepted by the hip-hop culture and he's not. This nikka spoke straight facts about building yourself up and everything when it comes to the business/industry but his character threw me all the way off.

ok but yall cry and bytch when AK and Joe talk about Drake, Kodak, X, Yachty, every day....

anyways i love when rappers come on the show and start shyt. reminds me of the Breakfast Club back in it's prime before Charlamagne went hollywood. especially that no rapper respects AK be funny as hell

but yeah i wish joe was on this episode. wouldve been dope
It's jokes breh. You taking it way to serious. I don't care that he was on the show. However, I really didn't know who he is.

:salute:

Excellent breakdown

And that's why Nadeska called him out immediately when he was getting at Ak at the end of the show.

"But you just said you and Ak are alike in how you came up"

This episode restored the feeling. Im dead at Nadeska of all people getting Vic Mensa'd. Im surprised she clapped back though, she comes off as timid when Joe raises his voice at AK.

Just listened to Russ, actually not bad. Some songs me any wife's jam to were his I'm kind of shocked

His honesty was cool, but I he did contradict himself by saying Ak is the DJ version of him, and I was surprised Ak didn't point out more similarities of how they arent censoring themselves because they're core audience is the only thing that matters (Ak / chat nikkas) - but then he called him XXL, but to AK's defense he only posts shyt he likes, don't like it move the fukk on, i respect that. Ak never claimed to be the number one source for hip hop

This Russ guy is a tryhard.
No one's ever heard of him like that CAC needs to humble himself.
I especially cringed when he said "rap is soft" and then proceeded to cry about how a blog that supposedly "doesn't matter" wouldn't invite him on as a guest:gucci:


Nadeska was 100% right this guy is a fukking cornball :scust:
