When Nas declared hip hop was dead back in 2006, the following 25 artists should’ve most likely stood trial for at the very least, accessory to murder. The music that came out from these guys music was so far left from hip hop’s original roots, that it almost sounded like a parody. We countdown the 25 Rappers that set hip hop back.
Although Diddy’s slightly more passable than some of the other guys on the list, it’s downright embarrassing when you have some of the greatest rappers of all time writing your verses for you and you still end up sounding like a clown every time you step into the booth. Puff should’ve just stuck to ad-libbing.
When you think of music industry creeps; the suits that suck the blood out of legitimate artists, it wouldn’t be too surprising if you thought of Benzino. A leech that singlehandedly plunged The Source into disarray, ‘zino also had the unique ability to make diss tracks that were more insulting to him than they were to the target, simply because his rapping was so laughable.
Attenshun!!! Bone Crusher comes from the school of rappers who listened to MOP and decided that shouting loudly with minimal rhyming constituted a rapping career. Bone Crusher is probably the worst of the bunch; a Frankenstein’s monster of nonsensical lyrics and crushing tedium.
Mannie Fresh is about as bad a rapper as his former partner Birdman, but his producing chops give him a little more of a pass than he of the red-starred dome. Don’t get it twisted though, when Mannie starts rhyming it’s a good time to hit the skip button.
G-Dep was signed to Bad Boy in their famous period of signing criminals and hoping that they can rap. Dep clearly failed the test having no visible talent and his one album, Child of the Ghetto, might have been the beginning of the end of mainstream gangster rap.
It’s a shame that female rappers don’t get more shine, but then when they come as discombobulated as Lil Mama does; it makes a hell of a lot of sense. As qualified to hold a mic as she is to judge dance competitions, Mama is a plague who we thankfully don’t hear much from; she hasn’t done anything since her first album dropped.
Having Biggie’s voice doesn’t mean you can rap. Shyne confused a lot of novices with his husky baritone when he first came out, but in recent years there’s no one mistaking Shyne for the black Frank White. Biggie could rap.
Why didn’t Dilated Peoples ever get popular? They had a great producer in DJ Babu and the incomparable Evidence as one of their MC’s. And who was that third guy? Oh yeah, Rakka, the most boring, stereotypical, underground rapper of all time, who single-handily kept Dilated from the success that the other two deserved.
Rappers become famous for their punch lines; most fans can recite at least a couple of excellent bars from their favorite artist. Know what people who like Mike Jones say? They say, “Mike Jones.
