top 5 hmm...

pac. i always think of him as more than just an mc/rapper. his mother being a black panther def had a big influence. very militant minded.

big. rhymes/flow so smooth.

nas. lyrics and content. joints like "one mic" heck he coulda just dropped illmatic and be considered one of the best.

jay. imo after black album his stuff has been boring put everything prior is classic. resonable doubt i put up there with great albums like illmatic.

rakim. perhaps the most skilled lyricist to ever do it. influenced many.

peep this.

Back in my day I had none of this. I waited Saturday night's I think it was 12 I think. PBS 106.7fm. Hosted by Kristy then later on Bias B & Stewie. Recording the shows on my tape

player calling up requests there were shoutouts n all that dat. Hip Hop wasn't even popular then (mainstream wasn't) neither was r&b. They had a show before steppin2 the AM hosted by DJ C & The one & only Mama LIsa...Before R&B was popular....shout outs. Back in the days I'm not a kid anymore but somedays I sit & wish sit and wish I was I was a kid again .
Stupid phone where's my bloody Nokia5110 not this new garbage iPhone iPod iTunes iPad ffs what's happening to the world.
 
the first time I even listened to a known rap show was the Come Up Show on friday night. it was the first time I ever heard Santos, and pretty much the only time Ive ever really enjoyed his rhymes tbh

 
Will check out those 2 videos soon. My top ten list I can't pick.
But jay was good for writing Kim's verse on big momma thang.
n
Top live performers you have seen.

Number 1. KRS ONE. Hands down!
2. pUblic Enemy always put on a great show except this yr Flav didn't do his Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaa Boooooooiiiiiiiiiiiii. But got clock & vinyl signed &
would not sell them for any money.
3. Immortal Technique.
4. Cypress Hill still good live a lot of energy from b real.
5. premier & Pete rock ...good show but disappointed premo didn't play more of his stuff.
6. Das Efx expected a lot more but their not in their prime no more.
7. Tech9ne when he first came to the country..Luniz were on the bill for a 2nd time?
Techn9ne I'd never heard of him at that time. Last act on stage. Awesome!
Snoop in 96???? First time to the country. In his prime awesome.. now his fuckin terrible.
DMX in his prime ...pretty damn good climbing the speakers security looked worried as Fuck holding them. Unfortunately now his ADDICTIONS he is not too well.
WU TANG --I don't rate them at all..
The rest I've seen either I forgot or certain promoters lol fucked it up.

Shiiit I can go back even further......McDonalds brick phones $1.00 a min. bud.
 
its funny how DMX and K Solo beefed and now theyre both crackheads

honestly, Ill take K Solo

DMX is more of just a crazy looking dude with a loud voice, Solo told stories

not saying I dislike DMX though, just to be clear





^^^Erick Sermon beat^^^

this song is pretty funny too, beat is more just background noise, this is all about the lyrics.



and when the door opened up..... IN CAME THE RHYME!

probably the climax of the song imo

I like how they let the instrumental play out for a bit before the song is over. really makes you go "the fuck did I just listen to? rewind that"
