Official Hip Hop/Rap Music Thread

Re: Official Hip Hop/Rap Music Thread

I remember seeing Kanye, Mos Def, and Freeway perform Two Words on Chappelle's Show. I think that was one of the first times I heard a Kanye song.

I heard on a documentary Kanye's TV premier was on the Chapelle show.

Paul Wall has to be the blackest-sounding white guy of all-time. I remember being shocked seeing him in that Mike Jones video like "What? This is that guy??"

Yelawolf's reaction to Lil B (@3:20 I think) was hilarious.

Madden 2007. I thank you for this gem. Years later, I realised just how above the game Lupe was lyrically at that point. He was just insane. And still is, just didn't show it on his latest album or mixtape much aside from 2 or 3 songs.

I would have crawled from Cali to NYU to witness Lil B's lecture.



"What are some of the things that y’all be feeling? What are some of things that y’all are going through? [Audience: "Family problems… sales tax… the cooking dance."] You know we ain’t gonna pull that dance out man! That’s millions, billions! I’m feeling like Michael Jackson out there, whipping the wrist like br-br-br-da! But I’m too subtle now. We representing. I got this beautiful quilt. I would’a come up here in a suit so y’all could take me seriously. I take y’all so seriously. I take the based god seriously."

Man. Just heard this song of Lupe's for the first time. The first verse has more lyrical content than Nicki's whole album. I wish I was lying.

I'm not the biggest rap fan in the world, but an old friend of mine just dropped a new mixtape today and this is the lead track off of it:

Re: Official Hip Hop/Rap Music Thread

Probably not even a question for most of you, but to those who are a fan of both, who do you think is the better group...

OFWGTHADAF or Slaughterhouse?

Re: Official Hip Hop/Rap Music Thread

Not even a question lol, Slaughterhouse.

Those other guys don't move me at all.

Of course Slaughterhouse is the better group top-to-bottom as far as technical rapping skills are concerned, but I ****s with the OF movement. They're bringing in people who don't really listen to hip-hop and making them fans. I like that. On top of that, Slaughterhouse has no producers. They all just spit.

Both groups are the ****, but lettuce be reality: Earl > anyone in Slaughterhouse.
