How can you compare Snoop to Cube?
 

It's not even a close race.

I like them both but Cube lyrically buries Snoop. :2 cents:

Maybe lyrically. But no one rox the party like lodi dodi.

Lyrically, Nas is the best, it ain't hard to tell.

Really? How many parties have you attended with each of them?

Or are you basing your statements on media hype and MTV videos?

Kanye West has gained enormous respect from me

Then go start your own fucking thread about Kayne.

lyrically nas is the best, i have to agree

and imo snoop kills cube:2 cents:

fo shizzle

WTF??? Ice Cube is not even close to Snoop... He should stick to his BS Hollywood movies...

well, living like a baller loc, having money and blowing hella chroniq smoke, i attend a few parties once in a while

Nas is great. So is Cube. And DMX.

Yeah the wash over friday anyday.

nas new album dops soon. wont be as good as his first. but doesnt matter though.

:1orglaugh nice.

I agree with Aaron, Cube is better lyrically. Snoop has a nicer flow, but he never usually raps about anything other then having fun.

I'm not knocking Snoop. Doggystyle is one of the best albums of all time. I can't say the same for any of Cube's albums.

Heck, there is even a country and western cover version of Gin and Juice. Search Kazaa.

I don't listen to that crap.

C'mon, grow up guys.

Aaron, I thought you were all about quality content.

This "music" has no content at all, thin air.

lol isnt that the original version hehe.

WTF?

I give up.

No, it's a cover. It's actualy pretty good too. Interesting to see it the other way around since rap takes a lot from other music.

I love people like this!

Here is a challange, think real hard and then try to repeat at least half a verse of a current rap song and also an old one. I bet you can not even understand half of what they are saying and even if it was written down for you the terminology and things they are talking about go completely over your head. It is interesting how people often dislike things they get frustrated with because it is not easily understood by them.

Rap tells a story about things that happen in urban life, it is clear and concisive story telling with plots, character development rising action and often resolution but uses dialect that you may not be able to understand, this does not in anyway make it any less musical than other forms. For instance I can not connect with some whinny kid talking about how his gf dumped him and the world is shit and everything is dark and there is only pain, not trying to hear that. Likewise you can probably not connect to the lifestyles they talk about in any way, does not mean shit on it.

I also challange you to write an kind of story by constantly rhyming words from the english language, then if you can do that I want you to set it to a beat that keeps people's heads bobbing, then I want you to verbally tell me that story while keeping up with the beat and using vocal styling.......

Body count was awsome.

The RZA is the greatest

Rap sucks.

At the rate its going there will be no more rap in ten years time, they are all gonna shoot each other..ummm I mean bust a cap in each others asses..lol

To bad for the 24" SUV wheel builders, they'll have no more clients :( Bling Bling?

today was a good day


etc

Agreed, Ice Cube is tight too lyrically, but Nas got him covered. Snoop i give much respect, but lyrically, he is not the same as when he first came out.

yeah the same thing was said 20, 15 and 10 years ago but it just gets stronger and stronger as lyracists get wittier and wittier.

I have studied music for years, basically if you are not talking about operatic orchestral compesition, big band, blues or jazz you are talking about a severly watered down version of music. I hope you do not think the repeditive playing of minor keys with sporatic key and time signatures accompanied by a screaching singer or a whinny post pubecent idealistic matched by a dime a dozen bass player with very little understanding of his roll and a drummer who would not know a rudament if it bit him on the ass and covers up his lack of talent by using double bass and floor to mock the bass guitar and high hat/china/ ride and snare to follow the pitches of the lead guitar and singer is REAL music.

I have taught percussion including melodics/piano to kids for years now and it never ceases to amaze me that most kids who listen to "music" can not even clap on the beat and have very little musical originality. Music is dying in my opinion, every day we loose true musicians and there are less and less to replace them. Most popular bands can only do one thing well enough to get signed and sell a single and are not true musicians, this is why you hear little maturity or progression in their albums and more and more you see one hit wonders coming out of bands. To each his own but please let's not bag on something because we do not understand or connect and then call it musical opinion as it is not based on musical knowledge.

jade, modern day rappers have no fucking beliefs. they all fucking sell out the first chance they get. its all about selling out, big house, nice vehicle with rims, hot wife/gf. very dull.

All I'm asking for is an NWA reunion with Snoop taking easy-e's place.

:thumbsup

It looks so fucking dumb, hehe.

It's so monotonic, most songs have 1 or 2 chords.

Rappers can't sing, their only way of creativity is changing tone or speed.

Their lyrics ? C'mon, it's whining about bad neighbourhood or bragging about being king of the neighbourhood.

Talking bout bragging, uneducated, dumb psychos.


Snoop to Cube is like comparing Vanilla Ice to Grandmaster Flash.


Comparing good, rich music to rap is like saying Snoop is as creative and talented as Mozart, composing complete concertos at the age of seven.

They can't even play ONE instrument but a sampler.

LOL how did this topic turn into a slugfest?

*True, most rap sucks like all music today and rap is probably the least musical form of music

Rappers can't sing, their only way of creativity is changing tone or speed.

*Don't forget the most important part which is rhyming and doing it to a beat. Even just memorizing the amount of material takes some skill.

Their lyrics ? C'mon, it's whining about bad neighbourhood or bragging about being king of the neighbourhood.

*True a lot of it is braggadagio. It's mainly youth oriented party/club music. Topics will be girls, drug, sex, and cars. You will get tales of the hood too.

*Interesting analogy from somebody who claims to not be a fan hehe

*That's not a fair comparison. Mozart was a prodigy - people like him come around maybe every thousand years. He mastered the art of composing as a child better than almost every man (arguably) that came after him.

They can't even play ONE instrument but a sampler.

*I can play guitar and bass but I can't rap. It's a different skill and it's not as easy as it looks.

you should watch that ghosts from mars film with ice cube in then rethink your answer :)

they both eat each others ass

yeah but what about Young MC?

:1orglaugh

Snoop had one great album and he still rides on that. His time is WAY over and his rymes are weak. He needs to go back to the dogg pound and do something with his hair. His side kick Magic Don Juan needs to be bitch slapped from running around with him like that acting like a fool. He was the Pimp of Pimps back in the day, now he's a dancing fool following Snoop around like a puppy.

Cube is still good when he wants to be. The Westside Connection shit is good.

2Pac is the best!:thumbsup
I wonder if there will be a album out every year (for 7 years) after these guys die. Will they be even remembered after 7 years? Maybe by us, but not by the new generations.

That's some knowledge right there

There is no comparing Snoop to Cube. Most of the kids on this board only know Cube from movies and the Westside Connection. They don't know NWA or Amerikkas Most Wanted.

Do any of you remember these songs
