Who is your favorite mc, (rapper) - Discussing rap artists and the industry

[Havoc919]

I would say i have to, Eminem and Nas.

[MasterX05]

Jay-z nuff said

[G_GUNDAM]

i really dont have a fav rapper since im a really big fan of rap. but my favorite type of rappers are the dirty south rappers. like pastor troy, trick daddy, bone crusher, TI, ludacris, and so on.

[vordulmega]

favorite rapper has to be "Vast Aire Kramer" from Cannibal ox..

either luda ,50, or d 12 (ok so d12 isnt a rapER but they do rap.)

[The Judge]

To me i would say 50 cent and nas. :D

[Havoc919]

i like 50 and all but if u really listen to his previous tapes, it seems like Lloyd Banks of the G-Unit is better than 50 to me. 50 definatly has Tony Yayo but i think Lloyd Banks got him.

[asshole]

I don't really like raP, i'm ALL into hiP-hoP, but if I'd have to choose the raPPer I liked the most, it'd have to be: DMX.

i'm a hip-hopist also.

"mint royale - show me" is a very good song.
it inspires me.

most of "de la soul's" stuff is pretty sick as well.

[Fried_Ricer]

i'd have to say the '95 eminem back when he was underground he said tight stuff like....well he was just tight,lemme rephrase that,he was better when he was underground in '95,besides nas is deep,but i would'nt really pick him as a cold rapper,but 50 is tight and uhhhhh bonecrusha.

[D.M.X]

I don't really like raP, i'm ALL into hiP-hoP, but if I'd have to choose the raPPer I liked the most, it'd have to be: DMX.

[vordulmega]

yes.the Herbaliser are good. i forgot about them.

true man the music never stops. bet we are the only ones thats ever heard of these groups. everyone else is like "50 cent rocks!" they just don't know the true #### and where it all evolved from.

"can't stop the hip-hop that runs threw these veins" :)

[Havoc919]

besides all that i like my underground kats like:

Jae Hood,9deuce,400 block,Canibus,Joe Budden (used to be),
Lloyd Banks,Tony Yayo,KRS one,Mos Def,Talib Quali,Twista,Memphis Bleek, and so on.

[asshole]

Havoc, the shlt we are sPeaking of isn't really underground (excePt for their UnderGround Freestyles..)
This is all that shlt that you'd only hear if you Picked uP music from the streets...
The Commercial RaP is changing the way PeoPle think of Music, I mean 50 cent calls himself a HIP-HOP ARTIST!!
He's FUXKING RAP!!!

On MTV this show called "Sucker Free Sundays" I've watcehd it once, and it's all RAP! ( Besides they Played one song of the Roots.. )


So yeah like Vordo said, this is only the shlt that me and him like around here...
If you haven't heard of "AtmosPhere" or "Swollen members" you don't know what HiP-HoP is, you'll just think that NAS and 50 CENT are HiP-HoP and eminem.. because he also claims to be HiP-HoP.

[machine1]

right now...... its 50... 50 cent is all over the place .... he's blazin up the hip-hop world....

[vordulmega]

right now...... its 50... 50 cent is all over the place .... he's blazin up the hip-hop world....
I'll give 50 props. even though i hate his #### some of it is all right. I can like hear his #### blasting in the background when i'm at partys, even though i'm drunk, i can feel the music.

grah..I hate 50. =/

[Havoc919]

Yes, i respect the roots of hip-hop like, Rakim,RunDMC,Grandmasta Flash,Big Daddy Kane, Biz Markie, KRS-One, and so on. Dont act like i dont respect the OG's of the game.

[Xicer]

Dont even try to play Nas bro, nas has been there knows that. He reps fully, no commercial ####.

[Havoc919]

exactly, Nas has been puttin it down since '89. and he is still on it. that has to prove greatness. :buttrock:

[vordulmega]

i personally hate "nas" if your going to listen to "nas", why don't you just buy a "kids bop album" =/

[Havoc919]

if u hate Nas then i hate u, its as simple as that.

[asshole]

Being OLD in RaP games doesn't mean you are True hiP-hoP, so Nas bahh.. he's a raPPer...


But hating someone cuz they hate Nas?
Now that's ridiculous.. I even dislike Nas!

[SiLent_BoB]

im too white to know who you guys are talking about. :p (well some people i know)
well actually i like some hip hop and rap but i really dislike 50 cent . im mean he is new to the rap scene and his cd says get rich quick or die trying. what message does that send out dont go in for the long run kids sell out or don't be patient. man hes gonna end up like m.c. hammer ... a bum
