explain how he is not original, I don't hear anybody else in the game sounding like ross right now, how is he not original besides his trap influenced songs?

lol

Rae, Clipse, Jay..Diplomats..all of them dudes did that shiit before..hes not bringing anything new to the table.

Cuban Linx 2 shiits on any ross album and thats saying a lot.

He is not original
He is not creative
His lyrics are average at best
His albums are hit or miss

People on here say he is better than big..Now biggie had 2 albums..but was so much better than Ross..its a disgrace to compare them.

Ready to Die is so much different than LAD

Ross cant grow as an artist because he is a limited rapper..and his beats save his ass.

This boy is not in BIG's league, no one is.

As far as your 3 points, the first 2 are opinions and the 3rd point is just a result of the first 2 opinions. But you really think he's not original or creative? Who is like him in the game right now? I can't think of one person.

BIG was so good that he tried every single style that was out back then. Ross can't touch that. NO ONE CAN.

Take this album, throw it in the whip, and blast the shyt with your windows down cruising the boulevard for an hour. You'll return home a better man, I guarantee it

I respect this..somebody actually took the time and made some points.

Still the question tho..is he worthy of all this praise? I understand its all opinions but its a goddamn discussion forum..so..
well homie look at it like this alotta people that hav access to the innanet still really arent up on alotta "non" mainstream artist i was talkin to some peps at work bout kdot a year ago and they wer like who? so he's bein praised strictly based off bein compared to other mainstream rappers...and really who else out ther is nicer than ross that mainstream? really, think bout it? wayne? aubrey? waka flocka? lol so thats why he gettin praised and hyped but to people like us thats on this hiphop shyt heavy(well speakin for myself in opinion) jus say yeah ross nice but sOn aint even crackin my top 15 but it doesnt mean he cant spit, its jus wat he's bein compared too.............wen kdot opened up for drake down here innew orleans he actually got booed this was months ago befor he really exploded on the feature tip, and i was like wtf? but now since he on songs wit khaled, dre etc and gettin radio play the same nikkaz here like that lamar kid a beast...........see how it goes

NY all day..Da Stead & BK..
ross can spit point blank period his lyrics are nice dude jus has a lane that he stays in.......not every rapper was meant to be lupe, nas, or elzhi......but he is far above the average rappers that we hav mainstream.....he's not a punchline rappers he's straight to point and son flow nice but, to say he says the same thing over again or stay on the same subject u cant knock him for that cuz he never came on the scene trynna be a "introspective, heal the world" type of emcee he does wat he does and do it well.......i wudnt want everyone to try to be one of those tyesof rappers i prefer variety

Basically...my problem.is nikkas don't know how to seperate the class of rappers.anymore..a nikka can't just be dope...he gotta be the GOAT...shyt is stupid...there's plenty GREAT artists that I wouldn't put in GOAT conversations and nikkas don't know how to NOT do that anymore...nikkas like Ross should NEVER be compared to rappers like Jay or Nas or Pac etc...I think that's why people get annoyed with some of these rappers and can't just enjoy the music...its the fans really...who don't know how to put shyt in proper perspective...and it makes people annoyed with the artists...

I stopped reading soon as u mentioned the clipse, wtf is so creative about what the clipse were doing, the same thing that u said about ross could be said about them also, I'm not understanding your point.


your comparing him to jay and rae who are legends and both are a influence to ross but bring up the clipse who talk about the same shyt on every song :childplease:

if someone wants to tier Ross up with them..they have the right to, its their opinion...whats annoying is people not being able to handle other people's opinions...trying to pass off their own musical judgement as fact
