I've been thinking this. The videos are great but jumping around isn't helping with his knowledge He should start from 1988 (Since he loves that era and anything before it probably just too different) and go from there on.he dont even know thats his debut..
like i said earlier ... i know its damn hard but he needs to try to go in order..
@hex
I've had the pleasure of putting nikkas on that was around in the 90s that slept on Twista.
Every nikka instantly became a fan after hearing this shyt.
One of the hardest tracks ever recorded.
This the hardest shyt on the tape though.

I'm from the midwest so I was hearing shyt from all over....a lot of other regions heavily slept on Twista. I remember dude was Tung Twista at first before he found his lane.
I'm a huge fan of Buk/Psychodrama too....he still raps and his last album was a border line classic.

Nah, the rest of that wasn't directed at you.
We had a convo on both of our love for Buk and Psychodrama.
I tagged you so you could see the young boy react to it.
His videos are fine the way they are. The reason people like them is cos it takes you back to a time when you were young in the 80s or 90s and classic music with lyricism was the norm (his reactions to Big L's music is just like mine when I first heard him all those years ago). I don't expect this kid to be knowledgeable and get all his facts right but it's good to see him appreciate what real hip hop was before all the bullshyt we're faced with now.
he's been doing these for a few months.. he needs to fall back and do a little research then get back at it.. there's connections he's missing left and right doing these randomly the way he is..
like dude said a few posts back .. i don't think he made the connection Rae is WuTang ... he called him nice a few times but still didn't realize its the same person
I still think it’s cool that it seems like he genuinely appreciates 80s and 90s rap. I feel a lot of these young dudes would just diss and say that shyt is boring. The only video I’ve seen so far that he wasn’t really feeling was triumph and even then he was saying it’s cool but it’s just way over his head which honestly I don’t even blame him. I don’t even think RZA knows what the fukk he’s talking about in triumph.I've been thinking this. The videos are great but jumping around isn't helping with his knowledge He should start from 1988 (Since he loves that era and anything before it probably just too different) and go from there on.
don't want that..You coming off as a big hater bro. Let him cook and figure it out.
the only problem is he hasn't done any research.. after he makes the discovery he does nothin with it... i like his videos but 3-4 months in he should be researching a few of the artists he likes.. i mean he could at least get a list of mods deep videos, nas, biggie, tribe ... those people he likes..
He is going for genuine reactions, and even keep it funky when he have heard bits and parts of a certain song before. He always ask his viewers to provide them with information of certain artists. And, it seems you want him to research artists that YOU like to which he's been lately asking requests of artists that he have not yet heard. And have you not stop and think that this IS his research? He goes in blind, reacts and then appreciate who that artist is about and ASK for more information about that artist or group. He's going in blind the same way WE have when a rap artist comes out and we reacted the same way without prior information, and we didn't have the internet back then. We learned as we go. That's what he is doing.
