C'mon, fam , you know ain't nobody saying the nikka is ass or something, lol. Maybe we got different definitions of tiers? Like, I'm not saying Tier 3 is straight 'baby shyt' filled with mumble rappers or something.

I'm on some:

Tier 1 (MVP/Finals MVP shyt. God level shyt. nikkas done mastered damn never every facet of Mc'ing)
Hov, Nas, Face, Lil Wayne (even if the backend of his career is trash), B.I.G., Lupe, Pusha, 3000, Meth, and many more.

Tier 2 (All Pro shyt. Extremely Talented. Prob damn near flawless. Can't quite put em in Tier 1 tho)
Kendrick, Kiss, Styles, Ross (maybe), K.R.I.T., Royce, and many more

Tier 3 (All stars. Good, sometimes great. Missing a few elements though)
Ya man Benny, J. Cole (could make a case for 2 possibly), Jay Rock, Q, Sean, etc.


I would have to think longer and harder to round it out. Solidify it. But, does that type of company seem like I'm being disrespectful or something? Lol. Now, if I said he was somewhere between 4-6, I could see ya gripe, breh.

Lil Wayne Tier 1?

Pusha Tier 1?

Lupe???? Tier 1???

Dead End Hiphop and The Needle Drop reviewing it live!

 

[Guvnor]

@Guvnor Ross has zero albums that are trash, I just think a lot of them have low replay value

I disagree, Hood billionaire and Mastermind were garbage to me. A lot of them do have low replay value as well, I agree on that.

Lil Wayne tier 1 god level One of the most embarrassing posts in the history of the Coli

Lil Wayne Tier 1?

Pusha Tier 1?

Lupe???? Tier 1???

I didn't really wanna put Wayne tier 1 but he got a lot of dikk riders on here and I didn't feel like arguing


Not to mention, you can hate on him now but that whole phase wit Tha Carter, Tha Carter 2, Dedication mixatepe . etc., you cant deny that fam.

And you may not like Lupe's music in his later years but his skills? Please tell me how many people RAP better than Wassalu??

Feel you on Wayne, although even in his prime, on the low I didn’t think he was that good.
Lupe was dope on his first two albums, but even they weren’t that good. Lupe gets too complicated his with his puzzle raps. And even if you think he’s high level lyricism, he doesn’t have the discography to justify tier one. Similar to Monch, Ras Kass, canibus, etc.

great numbers for Freddie

I don’t need to give a list or ranking, I can just tell you Wayne has been simply average for almost his entire career, and fans of his put him in an elite category just cause he spammed his music more than any other artist, and cause he called himself the best rapper alive. You can’t call yourself “best rapper alive” when even “peak lyrical” Wayne was no better than Fabolous. Was anyone calling Fabolous a GOAT??? The only people that put Wayne as some wordsmith during his peak were dudes that were coming of age in 2006. If you were an adult, he was some a dude that made some bangers and nothing more a 13 year old very well thinks 6 minute freestyles of crappy punchlines and laughing for effect are dope. Wayne has a tier 1 battery pack and work ethic, but he’s lyrically a tier 4 artist.

 

[Mr Clean]

great numbers for Freddie

Gibbs peaking at almost 40 years old is crazy

Hip hop came a long way

Ok heres my review.


As you all know I am not the biggest fan of Gibbs maybe this project will change that?


1.1985-Decent intro track. No memorable bars or anything that stands out. 5/10
2.God Is Perfect-Excellent way to start off the album. Gibbs was flowing his ass off on this. 10/10
3.Scottie Beam ft.Rick Ross-Great beat. Lol at dude Rick Ross to throw shots at Jeezy. As for Rick Ross, its fukking Rick Ross nothing special about his music at all anymore. 6/10
4.Look at Me-Meh this was obviulsy an interlude. It serves its purpose 5/10
5.Frank Lucas ft. Benny the Butcher-Best track on the album hands down. Benny massacred his verse and proved he is the better rapper
"Nah, my finger never could point

You know p*ssy best when it's moist "

10/10


6.Something to Rap About ft. Tyler, the Creator-Great smooth beat. Freddie went but Tyler was just kinda there. i mean he wasn't ad but he wasn't good. Gibbs verse was solid enough to give it a 7. 7/10
7.Baby $Hit-I don't how to describe this one but the beat is great and Nothing bad about the rapping so yeah. 6/10
8.Babies & Fools ft. Conway the Machine-My third favorite song of this project. Conway destroyed the beat. So much in fact I flat out skip Gibbs verse and just listen to Conways part. 9/10
9.Skinny Suge-My least favorite track off the album. Them coke bars just aren't hiting it. 4/10
10.All Glass-Solid way to end the album. "Feed a hoe like Andre 3000" Thats a great line. 8/10

Overall 6 out of 10


Its a decent project but nowhere as good people hype it up to be. The production is fantastic but how hard is it to sound good Alchemist's beats?

 

[ikbm]

^^ I wanna know what copy of the album this nikka got cause
nikka said tyler verse was wack, skinny suge was beyond coke bars...that was murky introspection.
said benny washed gibbs....and conway too
said scottie beam was mediocre

"p*ssy better when its moist" being a fire bar
this nikka just want meat and potatoes rap. no mention of the ridiculous amounts of flows used
no one on griselda has a project better than this, let alone pinata or bandana....and I like griselda a lot.

9.Skinny Suge-My least favorite track off the album. Them coke bars just aren't hiting it. 4/10

Loner but I hate to be lonely

I fukk a bytch she fall in love but I just wanna be homies

If I fall off or get locked up she might just fukk on the homies

Most nikkas die over love for a bytch or having trust in their homies

A skinny black nikka rich off rap

My nikka baby momma fiend
Cant keep his bytch off smack

She called police now he doing 7 years for a sack

He told me look after kids and a week later that bytch turned up wacked

Its just the code nikka

I pray Allah will take my soul nikka

Lord give me the strength to ignore the things I cant control nikka

Cause I was living by the code nikka

 

[T.H.E. Goat]

Frank Lucas my song of the year...love when Al get in his dark, left field bag

Gibbs and Benny brought some of the meanest bars
