Rap About Nothing: Hip Hop Chat Thread

[finessence]

Dr. Love could probably represent meek...

 

[servechilled81]

Umm... Levi Strauss was white if I’m not mistaken... look up the history of denim I guess.

Ya’ll give white people toooo much credit.

Since we ain’t gone do the dandy style, let’s wear jeans and t-shirts... also popularized by white folk. BUT YALL GOT IT

fam, i promise you could never school me in fashion history

1998? Iono bruh!

 

[D StaXX]

At no point was Nore was the hottest down here. That was X and Juvie.
But I was like 7 or 8 so maybe I'm wrong.

 

[OrangeBlueGarden]

He was big in 1998

 

[D StaXX]

Yeah he was hot, but he said the HOTTEST.
X had two platinum albums in 1998, and Juvie dropped 400 Degreez.
Naw I'm not going. He may have been the hottest in the Tri-State area, but definitely not down here.

 

[Magic33]

Maybe for like two weeks

 

[Magic33]

You have to wonder about some things.

Meek and Wale sell more than Ross, but Ross is probably living better than both. So Ross probably makes more off their albums than they do.

I wonder how long dudes contracts are for, because 10+ years and 5+ albums is too long for any artist.

 

[Grine]

Over Master P and the tanks?
Over DMX?

Not in 1998… he was hot but the hottest? Nawl.

 

[Master Zik]

Nore was ****ing huge but it didn't last long.

It could've been different but its very unfair with X dropping 2 classics in one year. Then Pun's run.

Not a lot of space was given.

Nore chose his words carefully though. The bigger title at the time was King of New York and he was never that.

 

[TipsyMcStagga]

I think Meek is bi-polar

 

[Maximus Meridius]

I think Meek is bi-polar

I swear. I was listening to him on Wallo and Gillie and he was saying something like "If a dude get outta line with me Ima **** your b**** and send her back but we don't do them corny games, all you rappers f the same chicks..."

I'm like huh????

 

[lawdog1]

Over Master P and the tanks?
Over DMX?

Eh. Just give it to him. I don’t think Hottest Rapper of 1998 is that acclaimed of a title:

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Nore is stretching it but Super Thug was like the biggest record out for a hot minute.

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Eh. Just give it to him. I don’t think Hottest Rapper of 1998 is that acclaimed of a title:

X, Hov, Lauryn, OutKast, Mase. That was a great year.

 

[lawdog1]

X, Hov, Lauryn, OutKast, Mase. That was a great year.

Yes, I agree, but none of those other people seem to be hung up on claiming that year.

 

[Master Zik]

Eh. Just give it to him. I don’t think Hottest Rapper of 1998 is that acclaimed of a title:

That's why I didn't have some strong reaction to it.

Even though ignoring DMX is crazy. Mans was scorching hot for 3 years straight.

 

[cedric ceballos]

X, Hov, Lauryn, OutKast, Mase. That was a great year.

When I think of 98, I think of that XXL photo with everyone on it. DMX put two classic albums out that year. Kurupts album and Snoops No Limit album were solid as well. Big Pun dropped Capital Punishment. 23 plus years later, that was one of the dopest summers ever on so many levels.

 

[stopcappin]

Rich the kid / Wayne album randomly came up in a convo about did any of us hear it … I searched the sales and It sold ****in 14,000

not even Wayne could help this terrible ***** smh

 

[Maximus Meridius]

What dirt Rich the kid got on Weezy? Who was anticipating that or knew about it?

 

[$tacy]

If Wayne was really like that y’all would be passing around the Wayne only version by now ijs…

 

[Lizakers]

Nore is stretching it but Super Thug was like the biggest record out for a hot minute.

yep. And he did that Tribe joint on the Love Movement album that was dope

What’s the difference between denim jeans and dandyism/jeans, since we can’t wear suits now. According to y’all....... both invented and popularized by white folk
