Rap About Nothing: Hip Hop Chat Thread

[kickvicisous]

Thread took a weird turn.

As usual

I never thought about this, but in the 90s music channels had a lot of countdowns shows with a lot of credibility and that gave everyone an idea of what was hot in the streets on a national level. We don't have that anymore, it's like a free for all.

IE Gatekeepers

reading this and remembering this

A Linkin Park Project, some Beyonce **** and Uplugged

A Nas Greatest hits that isn't even an actual album

But it's the internet

 

[kingfoamnyc]

This new MONEY MAN. Hard

Independent as he should be

An LP x Jay project, Jays wife, and another Jay project

we could call one of them a coincidence and it still looks crazy

but it’s the internet

 

[kickvicisous]

I'm just here for the raps

 

[Hahahaha]

Jay was only brought up because he happens to have a song drop the same day as NaS album.

I used to think it's a coincidence but nah, that's way too many times. 52 weeks in a year and every time NaS drop, you have to drop something? Nah, that's intentional.

Yeah, because a Beyonce project and Nas have the same audience

and Reasonable Doubt, Black Album, American Gangsta....Collision Course and MTV Unplugged...they get brought up all the time when mentioning Jay-Z albums

Jay-Z is brought up every time Nas is mentioned, regardless.

It's a song, a Pharrell song.

Cormega was the orginal 4th member of the firm anyway. I don’t understand the confusion. Nature got a ill flow though.

F**** STEVE STOUT btw. He always f**** up a good thing

 

[finessence]

The knicks will continue to be trash with steve stout as marketing director

 

[finessence]

How you obsessed with a man that’s younger than you, Jay-Z?????????

not about audience, Jay obviously a super competitive dude. Nas the only person to expose Jay in his career. You can spin it however you want, Jay attached to everything you named **** he handpicked LP for that album and won a grammy for one of the songs

Jay suddenly on a track with Pharrell on Nas release day

out of nowhere

Yeah, because he called up Pharrell and told him to put out the song for his project.

Pharrell also had that video done in a day too.

All because of Nas.

you missed the whole rest of that post huh

like I said we can call some stuff a coincidence but if the same person step on my shoe every time I walk outside Ima think it's weird. that's just me.

I don't even fault Jay for it either, if a ***** made me cry on the radio I'd step on his neck every chance I got too

 

[HOU$TON]

***** said @$tacy and wavycrocket think Young Thug look good and @RIP Screw and HOU$TON think Black Post Malone look handsome. The four of y’all wild for that.

Aye man don’t mix me in that. It’s 2020 whoever into that, cool.

Benny. Man.

I knew dude was nice when I heard him on My First Brick, didn’t expect him to ascend like this. The bars always been 10/10, but you can tell he’s trying to expand his base.

Wish he woulda got the Russ tour off before the pandemic. That was going to be big for growing his fanbase.

Is he re-releasing 17 Bullets?

I can't get over how effortlessly AZ was sliding on Full Circle.

"Dialogue superb, flyest cars on the curb, word
When I evolved, a higher God emerged reserved
More subtle, come from the stress and the struggle
Young then, obsessed in the bubble about it
Took advantage if a woman allowed it
One of the foulest, some would say I was childish, money-driven
Mischievous, I perceived it as livin', gifts and ribbons
Any kisses on the lips was forbidden, I was on it
She curvy, then shorty was cornered, no worries
For the naughty, it was higher performance, or was it really?
The games that I was playin' was silly
Similar to them days when I was packin' that milly, it could've killed me
Caution never crossin' my mind, she callin' cryin'
Me, I'm more concerned why she ain't fallin' in line, was buggin'
Grew a lot since they said I was stubborn
Guess it's real, even players need lovin'
When you enamored by female companions, there's no standards
Once you hit and it switch the dynamics, that's the damage
Reflectin' on first impressions, what's she expectin'?
Why when men don't follow directions, it's deception?"
