knowin how to use your voice and personality on the mic is indeed a talent....for instance, his kids got the same voice. look at the difference.

I think it was Dre and Cube that really showed Eazy how to use his voice. His personality just came out. The difference I see with his Kids is that they're not working with top notch legends like Dre and Cube.

LIL EAZY N E3 ARE DOPE, MAYBE EVEN DOPER THAN EAZY LYRICALLY...BUT THEY DONT HAVE ANYWHERE CLOSE TO THE SAME CHARISMA AND PRESENCE...DONT MATTER WHERE EAZY WAS TAUGHT IT FROM, HE GOT IT DOWN AND THATS MORE THAN U CAN SAY FOR MOST RAPPERS. HE SOUNDED JUST AS GOOD AFTER THE DEPARTURE OF DRE AND CUBE, AND WHILE I DO AGREE THAT THEY HELPED HIM IN DEVELOPMENT, U GOTTA GIVE EAZY A LOT OF THE CREDIT TOO...HE HAD THAT NATURAL PASSION FOR EVERYTHING, AND THATS RARE.

Puff gets shit for things that Eazy gets a pass on.

Not from me. Eazy was so weak. Snoop too.

They're the OG versions of Game, letting production carry them the entire way through & just know the right way to ride it...well read someone else's lyrics on how to ride it.


it's called personality, mic presence, flow, delivery, voice control, passion, charm etc......personally, i could never sit through an entire joe budden album, because i much rather hear some simple shit with personality and meaning than some great lyrics with monotone ass flows...if i want great lyrics, ill watch rap battles on youtube....i want shit that slaps, sounds good, rappers who mean what they say, who can rock a mic wit their energy, not just big words that sounds like it's being read off a paper....and that is why eazy-e >>>>>>>>>> joe budden

Pretty much.

You pretty much just summed up 95% of what the mainstream is.

Yet you both hate on every popular act on the industry. ::)


the mainstream sounds like shit though, from production to flows...they on that gay shit, cant fux wit that.

Absolutely not. The top dollar production & flow along with making it catchy for extra appeal is what the mainstream is all about.

Lyrically they suck...just like Eazy...but Eazy had some classic West Coast production & is considered a legend...so he gets a pass. Meek Mill is more lyrical than Eazy-E; it's just not "cool" to hate on Eazy.


THE DIFFERENCE IS MEEK MILL SOUNDS LIKE A FAGGOT WHILE EAZY IS THE PERFECT EMBODIMENT OF A G BEHIND THE MIC...MEANING, U CAN ACTUALLY FEEL WHAT EAZY IS SAYING WHEN HE RAPS IT. SHIT GRABS U......MAYBE NOT FOR U, WE DO GOT DIFFERENT TASTES, BUT FOR ME, ANYTHING EAZY HAS EVER DONE PRETTY MUCH SHITS ON ANYTHING COMIN OUT IN THE MAINSTREAM OVER THE LAST 10 YEARS OR SO. A LOT OF IT DOES HAVE 2 DO WITH DOPE PRODUCTION, BUT GIVE ME EAZY E OVER A SIMPLE DRUM LOOP, SPITTIN THAT PASSIONATE GANGSTA SHIT WIT THE DRAGGED OUT WORDS OVER MEEK MILL SPITTIN ON A SLAPPIN BEAT ANY DAY

You're a Basketball guy. Some of those Street Ballers are better than many NBA players. But, they don't have right people around them to take those raw skills and turn them into Pro-Level athletes. You can say the same for any artist that is good lyrically, but lacks the rest of the foundation. I can say Eazy was a good student, but I can't say that he was truly skilled.

Eazy is considered a top five West legend all-time; of course his work will be held in MUCH higher regard.

I'm not even really trying to say that today's mainstream is so much better than him...or better than him at all for that matter. I'm just saying, for someone who just pretty much said just coasting over INCREDIBLE production is better than absolute pure lyricism with less "catch" in the flow, you'd think you'd feel a few mainstream acts.

I guess today just isn't gangsta enough for your triple-OG ass.

he doesnt just coast through incredible production, tho...thats what u dont get. ud be amazed at how much harder it is to flow with that sorta energy and passion on cue than to sit down and write some lyrical shit and just read it off the paper in rhythm, real spit.

and i do feel some mainstream shit, as long as it's that real shit.. but nowhere close 2 as much as eazy

We could get into a whole debate on my feelings of "learning" vs "talent." Instead, I'll agree to disagree.

u dont think bein able to learn is a talent? some people can never be taught, no matter how hard u try. trust me.
