Yeah RIP Dilla and all that but lets cut the bullshyt

them nikkas couldn't rap for shyt pre-Elzhi and once he joined, he was the only one that could

You listened for the beats....thats all thats it.
I always loked SV cause T3 and Baatin always had a more freestyle love element to their raps.

Lyrically Baatin >>>> Dilla >>>> T3.

I always looked at SV as a musical exercise for dilla to give himself a realm to actually rhyme....virtually completing his hip hop musical cypher.....like a garage band for song writers.... Only diff is jd was so talented a producer their small little group thing actually gained national exposure......but IMO it always would have stayed on the back burner for Dilla .

They were fukking dope. It wasn't all about lyrics but whatever they were doing they presented it well. The albums were supberly produced and thought out. They brought that Motown, Detroit duwop heritage to rap. They actually rapped like a group meaning three part harmonies and melodies again that Motown influence. J Dilla posthumous dikk slurping aside they deserve some credit

I like their music

But outside of batin, they cant rap for shyt




BUT, they were smart enough to let the music itself take the front seat. The finished product = good music so no harm no foul i fucc wit em

Same reason Timbaland & Magoo ain't legendary. They had hits and made dope music, but the beats carried the group.
