Vinnie Paz Shares His List Of Slept-on Rappers | Melquan, Tragedy, Killa Sin, AZ, Superb, Starang, Black Rob, Juju, Tash , Akinyele +(Thoughts???)

[feelosofer]

Don't do Robbie O like that. He was on the project benches with it, hip-hop meant a lot to him before he made a dollar from it. His style is meant to be straightforward and conversational. It's harder to appreciate for some but mc'ing is about engagement, the purpose isn't to confuse the audience. Personally I don't think he sounds like G Dep. The similarity is that Rob & Dep genuinely struggled growing up.

I get that but I think there is a line between straight forward and basic. Rob to me is basic and that isn't a bad thing per se but he was limited lyrically though I would say his time on Bad Boy didn't make the most of him either.

Hang that ass up like a poster
Got nikkas out in Genosha who be screaming, "Eshkoshka!"
They don’t know ya, so I can’t see why they wanna start ya
It’s a shame, Strang got more aim than an archer

Starang is definitely underrated.

 

[LevelUp]

Yup. Chewbacca uncircumcised

A couple of these are tough. I don't know what Art barr talmbout but then again he's Art Barr

 

[wizworld]

Scaramanga should pick beats for Rae, Cappa & Deck.

Imagine Deck on "Holdin New Cards"

 

[nieman]

Trag definitely.
And let me add Royal flush & Illa Ghee.
Killa Sin is one of the nicest Killabeez BUT...
Ca-Tash has always been one of my favorites. I think he gets his respect amongst his peers, but not the mainstream.
And Ak stopped rappin in like '96.

What's Juju best shyt?

 

[Bugzbunny129]

Shabazz the disciple is imo the highest tier mc with highest song quality and not make it easily. He has a small fan base but shouod be much higher.

His career runs parallel to jay elect with me

After that, some of my fav killer bees were pop the brown hornet, killah sin, 12 o clock (rip), and carlton fisk. And LAD. Chip banks. Perb. Solomon childs.priest of course.

 

[MrRDU]

Juju lyrically and the Beatnuts as a group is the definition of slept-on

 

[Mr. Negative]

I wish the Beatnuts would drop something. I remember that Big City shyt from a long time ago, but I think their last real album was 2004.

@lovejay electua prolly know some kinda news, but I can't @ him cause of that font.

ONly name I add to said list is Tame One

 

[Juggalo Fred]

Coli ain’t gon’ like one of these names…..

Who, Juju? Or tragedy?

 

[NormanConnors]

To add a name to the list, Rappin Ron is arguably the most slept on rapper ever imo when you look at talent vs. popularity/impact

Excellent pick, breh was a beast, rip

 

[Yagirlcheatinonus]

I don’t think Az failed to meet expectations. People always thought he should be commercial like Nas and he wasn’t. Az has a dope catalog.

Very dope

 

[The_Third_Man]

pretty dope list

but Az gets mentioned too many times in slept-on rappers lists that he become almost overrated.

True

 

[KingsOfKings]
