that shyt was live, though.



not even gonna lie.



very few rappers have universal quotables that are instantly associated with them, or at least in the sense that it matters.

I actually think the 3000 comparison is really on point. does 3k have quotables that everybody knows or can be instantly attached to him?

if the elevator verse counts, is "if I told you that a flower bloomed in a dark room, would you trust it?" a quotable?

"If you say real talk then I probably won't trust ya"

"I was gonna kill a couple rappers but they did it to themselves everybody suicidal they aint even need my help" :wow:
:comeon: This a Jay-z line from one of his best verses in the last decade

I was gonna kill a couple rappers
But they did it to themselves
I was gon' do it with the flow
But they did it with their sales
I was gon' 9/11 'em, but they didn't need the help
And they did a good job them boys is talented as hell
Cuz not only did they brick they put a building up as well
They ran a plane into that building and when that building fell
Ran to the crash site with no masks and inhaled
Toxins deep inside their lungs until both of them was filled
Blew a cloud out like a L into a jar then took a smell
Cuz they heard that second hand smoke kills
nikkas thought they was ill found out they was...ILL
And it's like you knew exactly how I wanted you to feel

Dope seeing Dom on there but you can tell Nadeska nor Ak knew none of their music. They didnt even know the songs Hit Boy has produced and this is what irks me with this show. They don't know shyt and cant have a productive convo with artist about their music. They end up asking them the same ol tired "What's your top 5" bullshyt and their opinion on the same 4-7 rappers they always talk about. I mean whats the point of having the guests up there if you know nothing about them and don't ask them real questions. The 9th episode was good but they left so much on the table that needed to be discussed it was kind of a letdown for me personally.

There was so much to talk about with Dom up there, its kinda wild Akademiks couldn't even have lil bit of an engaging interview with him
especially cuz Dom Kennedy was poppin' when Akademiks was in college :why:

This whole week, Ak been quiet whenever non-newer rap stuff is mentioned. That can't always be his schtick forever cuz he looking dumb as hell being that illiterate on the culture for a 28yr old rap journalist

He doesn't know anything at all. Nadeska either. She stans for J Cole but earlier when Joe asked her whats her favorite J. Cole song she couldnt name shyt. Ak only knows about Drake, Uzi, and these other wack colorful dread head nikkas. He knew nothing about 9th and was silent most of the time he was there. They mentioned Lupe and everyone was dead silent except for Joe. They can't contribute b/c they dont know and are hipsters spewing the word "culture" to try and make themselves seem certified. They are all posers and frauds. Joe too b/c he changes his opinion every minute and sucks up to everyone mentioned to get favors later on.

Exactly. Dude is supposed to be able to talk about everything even the shyt he don’t like. Internet trolling don’t work as well in front of the camera.. you might actually have to talk about hiphop. nikka swear these teenagers are making music for his almost 30 year old ass lol. GTFOH.
