Joe Budden and Crooked I say "It Was Written" was even better than "Illmatic"

[spliz]

the "don't ask me why" part is the part I find troubling, lol. dude is a black rapper who talked subversive about barack obama, coulda been career suicide. dude basically scolded a hip hop icon and made him sit in the corner for calling his team thieves. dude was reppin occupy wall street before other celebs jumped on it because it was the cool and current thing to do. dude's lead single for his new album is a "Troy" remake. etc... these things are what hip hop is all about to me

Yup..AND Kanye straight BIT that whole diamonds of Sierra leone shyt from him..cause Daimonds are forever was about The Roc and Lupe did a freestyle to the beat about the Diamonds of Sierra Leone to the beat and next thing u know Kanye on 106 and Park with a video about the damn conflict diamonds..and that shyt WASN'T coincidence cause they was linked to eachother at the time..

He is SOOOO not a true hip hopper. He's a little turd who was birthed by IWW and has shunned true hip hop at every chance he has had by making U2 sounding, world hop records and spinning himself as a post Kanye supreme lyricist when he's really a tedious, low reward, meek voiced, no dues paying culture thief masquerading as something true.

his beats are ass. his presence is meek. fiascogate was real. lasers was HIS doing.

he's the lamest of the lame and honestly, his music is marginal.

Diamonds from sierra leone is a wack record...

that even if it's Lupe's idea, it's a wack record. Typical of the Kanye and Lupe crowd to try and touch on something real and not at all know how to properly convey the proper energy and emotions behind it to truly make the record win.


they do it more from a "me" perspective then a "hey, wake up" perspective.

i caught a vibe from lupe as an "agenda" rapper. i heard his early shyt where hes banging, then hes a skatin concious dude, then hes doing his IWW impression telling gangsta tales cause his funding got busted for dope, i wont even go into the post the cool lupe. dudes always looking for a gimmick likes hes a wwf character. i like the era when guys just did what they did.

you dont see the greats do that shyt a lot

youre the schizo Nas guy right? you mean little to me.

you don't sense energy and emotion in this performance and song? 3rd verse is chilling. oh, and disregard the band, lol, i'm sure you don't think thats hip hop, ha.

 

[Big Mel]

take Krs for example when he spoke on things.

Black Cop

Ah Yeah

Sound Of Da Police

because it comes from a pure, concerned space.

he's flitting about onstage like ever other lame black emo act. Childish Gambino does this exact same thing. Kanye does this weird, self important rock star movement shyt too. it's EXACTLY what i was driving at.


if you can't smell the bullshyt there i can't help you. that performance was vile.

what about what he's saying? lol. i mean, does that count for nothing to you my g? seems like your dislike for him is 1000% subjective, there's nothing about it that's not all predicated on your own personal feelings. give me somethin solid (pause)
