Why did Nelly go at KRS-One again? :krs:
- Thread starter KnickstapeCity
- Start date
Anyone else remember the "freestyles" Nelly kicked during the beef?
First off I never said Nelly sold out. I said he is a Sellout. He was never a real mc to begin with, he was created to be a fruity pebble rapper from the start.
Using models to promote your videos, making pop friendly radio music, subpar and empty lyrics/songs , embracing the white crossover, etc. In hip-Hop this is a sellout, he has no integrity in his music it's all about charting and making money. Nelly is the first one to embrace it and not be ashamed of it.
It's a shame that I have to have this discussion and I already know you're on the other end, ready to fight me tooth and nail about nelly being a sellout. Save your posts, I got a report for work I need to do.
neither won
krs was being a hater and didnt win or damage his musical legacy
nelly made a bunch of money after but the battle didnt help his musical legacy since damn near no one remembers it and realistically only a very small % of the people buying his records or listening to his music knew about this and the ones who did were gonna ride with him anyway
mildly entertaining yet completely random and pointless battle overall

And nikkaz have the nerve to post in The Booth. Nikka we reject yo deposit
Oh well. His shyt still gets no play in the car
brehs, I'm 25 and have never listened to a KRS One album. Heard probably about 10 tracks, only a few numerous times. Bought Country Grammar and listened to Nelly a little bit in his prime.
KRS won. Easy.
Who cares about TV shows, girlfriends, money made off tours where you are with boy bands and so forth....that stuff doesn't go to the grave with you or define your legacy.
KRS' music will live on to a certain crowd even after he is dead. The only way that would happen with Nelly is where songs like "Hot in Herre" come on, and no one will even know that's Nelly, they will just know the song. Whereas people will still be listening to volumes of KRS' discography.
I understand the old school vs new school shyt that goes on here and also the fact that Ruler is annoying, but lets be logical. KRS is greater, and in terms of the battle, he won that. Because if he didn't, then that precedent is too flawed.

Call me Dad
this is the real answer to anyone who was paying attention when it happened... and it's also why krs one lost
nobody could wrap their head around it... KRS ONE PICKED A RAP BATTLE WITH NELLY
say that to yourself...
imagine the outcome.......
now imagine if someone told you it was close... even 60/40... even half the people saying nelly won..
nah.... krs was supposed to mop the floor with this dude.

I always wondered why KRS had a problem with that Nelly verse when everyone from Hov to Cam to Nas to Biggie etc had been sayin similar shyt from the jump.
It was a bad look for Kris and the fact that his responses was weak when he's supposed to be a monster was an even worse look. I had to give that one to Nelly just off the strength of the fact that he came out unscathed.

All this proves is a bunch of people here don't know shyt about Hip Hop or battles, people get exposed with the quickness in threads like this. Go and read the comments on the KRS-One You Don't Really Want it to see what people that aren't bafoons and dikkriders think. If I can be bothered I might post myself but a lot of people on here are hopeless cases.
Also the ignorance about what even happened is startling. Never understood why people would speak like they know something when it's pure ignorance, everything I said was from direct sources and can be backed up with facts in regards to how the situation occurred.
