Lets not forget some real hip hop back in the day .....


Yo, grab a pencil
Three pads and a notebook
You're still shook
Like below zero
Paintin' murals
By the train track
It's 'nuff skills that you lack
So fuck you, your crew
and your backpack
I'm phat




Yo xentech, whats the artists that you've heard of that no-one else has? ... could probably prove you wrong ;)

You may be able to because you are from the UK and probrably like grime n shit. Ever heard of sMoKio and DB from Birmingham? Or MC Vader?

exactly my thoughts

I like the one who goes " yeah, yeah. Wassup yall...yeah. Bitch, motherfucker, nigga nigga".

Big Pun had like 2 good songs. Pffft.

LOL you live in Calgary. Have you ever even seen any of your favorite rappers live?

2Pac Nuthuggers are so clueless... West Siiiiiiiiiiiide!

I don't get the whole 2pac thing never did he was a pop rapper with common lyrics

1. Immortal technique
2. Keny Arkana

Those are the only ones I listen to right now.

you dumb fuck,

its called CDs, mp3 internet you know?

so fans of elvis cant like elvis because they did not see him live?
get a clue

BIG PUN is up there, you didnt even make a list, thats because you are a poser.
let me guess your shortened list:

eminem
kanye west
50 cent
dr dre
dmx
jay z

What the fuck is a person with the 30th anniversary edition cover of Dark Side of the Moon doing making a thread this lame?

People put those rappers that you dont like on their lists because they enjoy listening to them.

Sure DMX, Ludacris etc. arent the most lyrically talented, but theyre something people like to listen to. Just cause you dont like it doesnt mean its crap

Let's replace "Ludacris" with "George Bush", and see what your stance is, now.

nahhh :)

Learn how to read dumbfuck. my list is in the thread. I started going to Rap concerts when I was 13. This thread is not "Who are the 10 most important/legendary/epic rappers" Its your FAVORITE rappers. I was asking if you had ever seen any of them live. I know the answer is NO. LOL @ your poser clown ass Canadian peckerwood ass.

Here you go bitch nuts!

1. Tupac
2. Biggie
3. Eminem
4. Method Man
5. Nas
6. Jay-Z
7. Bustah Rhymes
8. T.I.
9. Alchemist
10. Lil Wayne

Nah I don't listen to grime, just the proper UK Hip Hop stuff .... foreign beggars, jehst, taskforce, phi life cypher etc.

Here's a Hip Hop to Grime combo ....





:thumbsup

I am open minded, I don't dislike certain types of music like most of the people on this forum. Most people for example, if they don't like rap, when they hear a rap song will just automatically not like it. I'm not like that, if I hear a song that I like - thats it. I have a very broad range of musical taste. I can listen to Pink Floyd one day, Beethoven the next and then slap on some Biggie Smalls.
