"I wanna **** Tiny lil ugly ***" - Gucci Mane, meltdown

Son talking about people are black balling him and stopping him from working with Keef. Thought Keef been laying low because of all those Chicago warrants he’s got. Plus dude seems to have gotten on his grind to make his own beats, so there’s no reliance on Chop.

The way dude has been acting on instagram, I can see why no one wants to work with him. Sus **** aside, I can imagine it’s not going to be easy to get rappers to want to fw you when you’re calling everyone soft or scary.

Old hip hop artists and fans wouldn’t let Kanye make it.

Kanye West likens backlash over support for Trump to racial profiling

Rapper says anger over his views reminds him of racial assumptions he once faced: ‘You’re black, so you’re a Democrat’

Damn that's crazy! I just played this album for the first time during the quarantine. Amazing body of work. My older brother swears by it, and I just never got around to it until now.

Coincidentally, i happened to re-visit some old mc hammer songs on YT.

dude was actually pretty damn dope. And tbh, the music is still enjoyable. I actually been runnin a handful of songs back on “lets get it started” and “please hammer please dont hurt em”. When your able to step back from the vacuum of time when music was released, and listen objectively, you can see the appeal. Presentation was a big part of his success. I see it clear as day now.

he just made it to a level of superstardom where he became a parody for many. But becoming a parody in people’s eyes really only happens with the most successful.

lookin @ that vid that was posted and the too legit vid is a trip bc other than MJ, i dont really remember artists havin their music videos double as full length movies.

hammer was on another level. No wonder n_’s was hatin roun that time. Lol

If you have a talk with my mom or grandmom they will tell you how big of a MC Hammer fan I was as a kid. I still listen to most of his hits today. I think his best tracks came from his Death Row days when he had Pac around. I could see his track "Pumps and a Bump" getting play at college parties. I've always said that would be a nice song for the Ques to hop to because of the atomic dog sample.

Another problem I had with Prodigy's book was how he portrayed The Lost Boyz. I heard about dudes in the 90's and how they rolled. He made everyone he didn't like or had problems with look like suckas, which wasn't accurate.

But it was weird to me how Lost Boyz crew became G-Unit after 50 got popping

Is it Lil Baby or NBA that's considered the best young rapper?

Also, can anyone point me to the best of Young Thugg?

I have stupid amounts of time these next couple months WFH/frontline. And when I'm at work I have to keep my playlist as hood as Janet Jackson's Rhythm Nation.

I simply don't have time to give these young dudes a chance.

Lil Baby & Youngboy are dope. You’d love em if they were from NYC .

But I’d be happy to take this thread in the direction of young, talented rappers....than reminiscing on early 00s East Coast beef. From 40 year old men, on IG live. You’d love that.

NBA > DaBaby

 

[kickvicisous]

Da Baby is TRASHHHHHHHHHH. Pamper at a festival wearing *** dude.

I don’t understand the appeal. AND I hope I never do

Both of them are the top tier of their class. Special talents. You’d have to be under a rock, or completely removed from any urban black social settings...to not be familiar with these. They playing Youngboy and Lil Baby at the Barbershops, cookouts and in the streets. Shoot, Lil Baby “Out the mud” was the finish line commercial for NBA on TNT .








Young Thug is also magnificent. Another special talent. Might flood thread later with JEFFREY .
