"You Could Erase Fabolous' Entire Music Discography From Existence & Hip Hop Wouldn't Change. Fab Is One The Least Influential Rappers Ever"

[CantStop]

to me it's nelly.

lie right now and say u bumped nelly within the past 5-10 years.

 

[The G.O.D II]

Fab doesn’t have a single classic album. None of his single had any major impact. His mixtapes are just ok at best. Hes a poor mans version of better rappers. Poor mans version of mase flow. Poor mans version of Jadakiss punchline.

His debut Diamond. His singles still gets played at parties and arenas go this day. Not a single person in this country walking into club asking for I can’t deny it or baby to be next in rotation

 

[The Connoisseurs]

At one point Fab was the # 1 go to guy for a feature or a remix to boost your single.


Now y’all wanna come up with this BS…


Shawty a ten, say ahhh, make me better , … etc …

TINC, Soul tapes, etc ..

 

[Playaz Eyez]

Now yall bout to have me listen to random Fabolous songs cause I haven’t listened to much of him in years lmao

 

[Champagne Kudo]

I don’t even hate fab He got some classic radio tracks and soul tape was pretty good when it came out

What I am mad at is nikkas making the page refresh from posting a bunch of fab songs

 

[Music Fiend]

Fab kinda carried the NY pretty-boy swag energy after Mase retired and before Asap Rocky blew. I guess you can say Cam was there and doing it better, but Fab was a bit more mainstream with it

I think his music has zero impact, but he was definitely involved in fashion trends, and the branding of the rapper "lifestyle" from an East coast perspective. He's an influencer basically

I'm really trying to be charitable here cause he doesn't have much artistic merit lol

Fab's roadmap imo is prolly top 10-20. Cuz i 1000% agree with everything you said. The question is why is fab even remotely relevant 20 years later. That to me is his greatness, mans figured a way to stay relevant without the talent of being a star.

Fab basically wrote the pages for currensy today. Fab and joe budden are two dudes outside of mainstream success where 99% cant recite anything they ever rapped

He’s a bootleg Ma$e and a Shasta version of JAY-Z, the fukk do you except

 

[IAMDetroit]

@Barnett

i mean, does it not exist, or does it go to someone else?

maybe the alternative is that the beat goes to Jay Z or something. Fab didn't do that beat justice

Fab did better than Jay Z would have at the time.
Maybe ever.

Fab is one of my faves proudly. Every rapper isn’t iconic to everyone. I’ve never listened to a KRS-One.

I wouldn’t crap on his contribution. Literally, there are 1000s of artists who’s discography we can lose and not bat an eye like Young Dro as an example.

 

[BigTyme Records]

Facts.

You have listed to KRS, you just didn’t know it

Edit: I mean to say, so many rappers have bit his lines, it’s not funny.

Don’t know, don’t care

 

[Street Knowledge]

The guy was brining up mixtapes when fab wasn’t even top 3 in NYC during own era at that
