can you point out the biz and g rap joints?

kool keith went at a handful of ppl too on plucking cards

Nobody beats the Biz

Rakim
Like before the middle of my story I'm telling
Nobody beats the R so stop yelling

GRap
Poetry full of surprises, it's like a game show
And my brain glows just like a rainbow
Rappers and poets they already know it
G Rap is a terror not a error and never will I stop reaching for better

Rakim
If this is demonstration it can't be the same show
Maybe you're too fly somewhere over the rainbow
Courage, heart and brain, you need rhyme
Turn on your mic, snap your fingers three times



Ra spit…”Played em/said he was gonna do what?/sprayed em/Emcee Grand Pu-butt/stole his lady/drove her crazy/she asked me why?/cause your man tried to play me”.

Then Puba responded,”Brothers keep wishing but see they”No Competition”/dissin the Puba/I keep’em eager to listen”.Those two comments from Puba are titles to two tracks on Ra’s(opus)”let the rhythm hit em

Kool Keith disses to Ra,

“I see your balls of clay with X vision/ I’m a scientist/Your satelites are weak/they get dimmer everytime I speak”

“There not ready they don’t smell done/like fish it ain’t my favorite dish/I grab a steak in a battle and wish a coke MC or pepsi I sip up/

“Call yourself God/can you make it rain/Can you tell me now what I’m thinking in my brain”

Ra’s response to Kool Keith.

“No dictionary necessary to use/big words do nothing but confuse and loose”

“Your potion was weak make another antidote/what’s the science why can’t you quote
Elements for musical intelligence
Rhymes are irrelevant, no development
And that settles it"

To cool J

“You need more power you better bring BattleCat. But this ain’t Gray Skull and you ain’t rippping, Jack!. Don't drop the mic and jet for your tooley

To James Brown
James Brown must a been dusted
Disgusted, now he can't be trusted

I also think he dissed Moe Dee with this line and flow
Minor, old-timer, weak-rhymer, stay-in-liner
You won't be inclined to go so yo

One thing I will never understand about Vol 2 is why did Jay Z not rap over that Premo beat on the Intro when it was the only Premo beat on the album? Sure I know he was trying to make Bleek next in line but looking back it was like a waste of a Premo beat.

Hearing the Premo beat drop......then Bleek rhyming over it

Was one of the biggest instances of

Am I the only one who felt the intro on vol 2 was disrespectful to Big:

"Sorry Big. I tried. Cant go wit me on this ride. Im callin the shots. Now where we goin for breakfast?"

So now that Big is dead, he seems happy to know he's the man now, and he knew damn well Biggie loved food, yet he taunts him wit breakfast.

Volume 2 does not get revisionist hate it gets revisionist love.
I don't know, I was a kid and didn't listen to Jay Z at the time and I heard that album everywhere. Online I hear that it was trash, but to me it's a good album that you can play all the way through :manny:.

I never know the original hype surrounding these albums when I first start listening to them because I was in 4th grade when that shyt dropped.

I shouldn't say revisionist love, because people did love it when it came out. I just mean that there was a clear divide between Hip Hop Heads, The Hood, and the Mainstream when the album dropped. Hood and Mainstream loved it, Hip Hop heads hated it.
