Ice Cube Says ''No Vaseline'' Is Better Than Kendrick's Not Like Us & Nas' Ether

[PHamm]

MTG and NV are top 5. Ether is not on the same level

 

[Dr. Narcisse]

Exactly. People be forgetting the Outlawz was on that shyt and Against All Odds is more scathing even tho Hit Em Up was more popular and iconic.

I almost feel like Pac being dead already is why Against All Odds didn't get the proper rollout. How TF is it left out of these conversations.

I wouldn't even compare it to that.

You can't compare it to anything from the 90's because rap now is 100x bigger than back then. A song similar to "Dre Day" would not be getting played at sporting events and strip clubs in 2024. Nor would it be a #1 hit.

The only modern analog to "Not Like Us" is "Back To Back".

EDIT:

Or "Dollars + Sense", if it was actually a mainstream hit back then.

Fred.

It ain't better than Dollars + Sense either. And if Dre Day came out now it would def get played everywhere. shyt it got played everywhere then. shyt is in a bunch of movies and everything.

Alotta people felt that way. I said it in a prior thread. That song was so hot some people didn't realize it was a diss track.

Look at u. Using "stan" as a verb. Something ETHER popularized. Goof. Lol.

 

[BK The Great]

Eazy E also dismantled the remainder of what Dre was at the but he doesn’t write. Still a classic diss song.

Dresta got one of the GOAT diss verses on this shyt.

Replay value on the whole song is still there. They all shined on this.

Lol clearly you failed English. Do you even know what a verb is?

 

[NYSTATEOFMIND]

Ether destroyed the Roc and became a verb in pop culture...Sorry Cube

 

[spliz]

Lol clearly you failed English. Do you even know what a verb is?

A word used to describe an action nikka. Such as "stanning" someone. The name "Stan" is a noun. Cause names in general are nouns. But Nas turned the noun(as in someone's name) into a verb. Which enables u to use it to describe someone and make it a noun again. He took it out of the format of a name and made it an action.

Not Like Us is wack af so he ain't lying. Ether on the other hand
