How can someone listen to "I Get Wrecked" and/or "Double Trouble" and then fix their mouth to say this?

Exactly, the I Get Wrecked lyrics were serious, I don't think these dudes heard that lmao, just a few cuts off Crminal Minded where his style was more simple lol.

This.

I remember back on SOHH in like 2001, when cats were callin' 'Bis a Top 10 MC because he was so "complex" with his words. LOL!!

I never understood that argument at all.


I remember this too. Back then SOHH was full of either dip set fanboys or dudes that worshipped lyrical MC's.

"Ten years ago we passed 'em - but they persist, so we ask them:
Who don't you think about,
when you think about takin' an MC out?
It's The Teacha, no doubt!"



This is that rap rappers ain't rappin', because of rappers like KRS!
