i never realized how young the people on here was till right now 5 years from now you guys will not even know 1 rappers name even if he is in the top 20

kanye is hot right now…but overall its hard to touch beats from timbaland & neptunes

Kanye’s new video is hot nice camera shots…and its got the hottie from mo’ money.

you just don’t know hip-hop…ask anyone that is a true hip-hip fan…the big-pun album capital punishmnet is a classic

and you’ve got to be kidding…kaurpt, warren G, spice 1??? WTF.
and nate dogg don’t do shit but sing R&B hooks on poeples songs.

I’ll give you dre, snoop, cube, eazy e, and 2 pac…but where did 2 pac come from??? east coast!!

they are good but still…lyrically east is better… MosDef, Talib, Common, Nas, Jay, Meth, Gza, Biggie, Busta, etc…the list goes on and on East >> west

and you can argue beats all you want…right now…timbaland & Neptues got it on lock…if it wasn’t for dre prducing west coast would be weak right now…and even thought its not my taste Lil john is blowing up producing too
you’re right i don’t know hip hop, thats that garbage they play on the radio. I listen to hardcore rap. Death row, old school no limit, etc…I would hardly say ice cube is washed up, he could come out anytime he wants and give it to them all. i hate the east coast style of rap period. If you don’t know spice 1 you don’t know what u r missing. Karupt is hard, he ripped DMX apart many times over foxy brown. FUCK NY. the east could never put on a concert like Up in Smoke!!!

im sure ur older than me too im 19

i listened to spice1 about 7 years ago i dunno if he got better or what but back then he was nothing special…then again i was like 12

yeah they play so much mos, talib, commom, raekwon, ghost etc… on the radio

there is a difference between comercial hip-hop and true hip-hop…but i guess you wouldn’t know that.

whatever bro

spice 1 is weak and warren g sucks!!!

regulators!!! mount up!! that one of the worst songs of all time!!

you old fucker.

the thing is, the west had hot guys… all their 90’s shit is good, but the east had them then and has them now.

gangstar, rakim, epmd, tribe, lons all good then
mos, talib, common, nas, etc good now

dre, iceT, cube, nwa, e, snoop good then
50?? kinda midwest good now, but that’s about it.

btw… capital punishment is really hard, an instant classic

id say east>west by a ton NOW…back in the day west was much better.

just my preference though

karupt got a littel shine yrs ago but he’s weak… and who give a shit about rippin DMX…DMX can’t even hold Mos, Talib, common, and a few others dick

dmx is just OK…nothing special

bob seiger>all those guys!!!:smiley:

haha… you assholes…

outkast > everyone… ummm hello? they have their own band… they create their own music and they write their own songs…

go out and find another rapper that does the same… there are a few… but not nearly enough.

it’s sad when current day rap is written by the same assholes that write all the pop star songs, justin timberfuck and britney spears… and the beats are the simplest shit EVER…

all you need is a t-808 and the slightest sliver of creativity…

?uestlove > dre (whatever number he is this week)

The roots put on a good show. I remember seeing them live in Laga with Dead Prez. they preformed for 3.5 hours with no breaks. High energy motherfuckers.
