WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Your joking right? Fine listen to this



Also listen to this song. You can't hate on this one


Yeesh g-value. Do you listen to any hip-hop that isn't heavily circulated on the radio? Or anything before the last five years?

 

Alot of the songs i posted are not played in the radio. Also i listen to plenty of old school rap songs. 2pac is my favorite rapper. Is there a problem with me liking today's hip-hop?

 

The artists are played on the radio.

What old school hip-hop do you listen to? 2Pac isn't old school btw.

There's no problem with you listening to today's hip-hop. I listen to it also. It's just the people you're recommending are usually the emcees people refer to when they ask "What happened to the rap genre?". If I posted up Nelly videos, it would serve the same ending.

 

2pac has been rapping since 1990 so how is he not old school? Other old school rappers i listen to would be Rakim, Big L, Nas, Red Man, Snoop Dogg, NWA, Bone Thugs and many more.

 

Out of your list:

Old School-Rakim, NWA

Not old school-2Pac, Big L, Nas, Redman, Snoop Dogg, Bone Thugs

There are two schools of thought. One that thinks old school's cut off was 1984 when Run-DMC appeared and the other thinks it's 1989, marking the end of the 1980's and moving onto a different school of hiphop.

Rap stopped being good when Will Smith stopped doing it.

 

 

 



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

HAHAHA tupac, old school:D that made me laugh.

I think it went down hill when every rapper that was atleast half decent made too much money and couldnt be arsed any more.

The last rap track i really enjoyed http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w_Xj2issLl0



Endure. In enduring, grow strong.

You can't doubt Papoose though



Pap the truth.

Well he's not as terrible as Rick Ross (those two vids didn't change my mind and I still think little Wayne is a home, but you have to admit papoose is quite the ridiculous name for a rapper,lmao! I really didn't care for this guy either though.

I don´t really like rap the only rap group that I like is the beastie boys due to the sick sampling.
