None of what has been posted in this thread so far is even close to as corny as modern day rap
“Last Dayz” by onyx had a lot of corny ass bars

Onyx started out trying to sound like De La Soul, they didn't start with that Throw Ya Gunz stuff 'til they dropped this and it flopped

“I’m thinc about taking my own life, I might as well, but they prolly don’t sell weed in hell”
“That’s where I’m going cuz the devils inside of me
“shyt they gonna get it from somebody might as well be me
song is a perfect example of early 90s hip hop trying too hard to be edgy and shocking. That shyt wasn’t natural at all. A lot of it was forced.
“Besides, they can’t tax dirty money
Okay.
I disagree with you. It's more that they were very real and expressive.
How old were you in 1995? Be honest. Are you a youth revisiting?
Sounds gay to the typical, immature listener.
But he's referring to R'n'B clean, attractive focused model dudes vs grimy street dudes.
I pray revisionist history doesn't ruin incredible rap albums by ppl who weren't there.
I was 13 when my sister bought me this album.

Nah, nothing corny about this song. shyt is classic.
The album had some corny edgy shyt on there, but this song was and still is dope as fukk.

Yall don’t realize he was being satirical?
Listen to the rest of the verse

They never really hid this. They even reference this song in "Throw Ya Gunz" song
Okay thanks for your honesty. I was 13.
When I first heard it at that age? My reaction was it's intro was scary as shyt! The devil telling the guy to kill himself. Hearing that as a kid was like a horror movie.
That's my factual reaction. I may have turned it off and listened to it later.
I loved the beats. Later when I was 15 I played it so much. I'll throw it on now no prob.
Walk in New York is incredible. The drums etc.
Coli - is All we got iz us considered a hip hop classic based on consensus?
I feel it didn't seem that way when it dropped but in retrospect I think it totally is. It's a damn near perfect hip hop album.
To confirm is that track you posted - ahh, and we do it like this - considered them sounding like De La? Or other tracks?
It does sound like De La. Never heard this! Thank you.
I hear you.
But it's Onyx, who they are and the era.
I never thought in my life an Onyx album was corny.
