[Collateral]

Fab can out rap 90% of these nikkas and is a platinum selling rapper for 15+ years, fukk anyone’s negative opinion about his career he has solidified himself as one of the all time greats.

Nah

Young'n
Breathe
Can't let you go
Make U Mine
his verse on Clipse's Comedy Central


just to name a few. Fab was dope

 

[zayk35]

he not wrong but there's way more guys you could mention before saying that about Fab. Like take "Young MC" what did he influence? Nothing changes with or without Bust a Move

 

[CarltonJunior]

I mean, it's true that Fab has low impact music

But it's good ass music, if Fab is the soundtrack of your life you probably a cool nikka

 

[The Intergalactic Koala]

Mans was one of the reason why the mixtape industry was thriving. These podcasts/gen z talking head ass goofies don't know a freestyle session, from the flavor of Biggie's pickle juice jar.

 

[Finesse]

You can say that for alot of rappers

 

[Devil Plisken…CMS]

Totally True

 

[wizworld]

Yeah I don't really get this way of thinking either. Rank them from least favorite to favorite or whatever if you want but just going who could be erased from existence is weird. I mean there's arguably great artists who put out great music but if you deleted their music it wouldn't change anything. It kinda just seems glib.

The story of hip-hop will be told without any of the voices of the folks on this show.
I assume they want/need the extra clicks that comes from framing this discussion in a negative manner. Or they're drawing straws to go viral.

Based on the question the podcaster asked, he is correct with his answer.

And it’s not necessarily a dis to Fab imo because just like in the NBA, it’s only a handful of Superstars that impacted the game significantly

 

[UpNext]

You can say this about damn near every rapper tho. It's only a handful of individuals that really shook shyt up by themselves.

 

[Juliano Soprano]

Same could be said for Mike Dean

Mike Dean an absolute legend just off Scarface alone

 

[maxamusa]

Breath was my shyt.......and the soul tapes held me down.....I love to clown on fab as a person but nah.

 

[malbaker86]

I CANT ARGUE AGAINST THIS

I think people on here are conflating what they liked versus what the topic is…

Fab never separated himself enough from Mase stylistically

All of his hit songs could’ve been easily given to someone else since it was always someone else on the hook

He never set trends musically

He was never considered a top 5 rapper nationally at his peak

None of his albums has stood the test of time

Need more proof? Look at the majority of freestyles that are being posted in here…
