royce has a really dope album .... check out his album “prhyme” .. entirely produced by dj premier same with crook .. his album “statik kxng” was some great stuff
^its on par or better than everything u listed outside of soul on ice, which was a classic
maybe you right, but it's just hard for me to get into anything that came out after Nas dropped Hip-Hop is Dead in 07
sounds mentalyou’ve built an imaginary barricade that only exists in your mind with an exact date on rap projectsfascinating homie
Yo.. check the name on the sig I'm Infinite Trapped in 96 homie!!
I agree that the 90's era was the best in terms of quality music many artists are still releasing heat though you just have to look harder for it
I don't think ya'll understand what I'm saying--I am literally stuck in a time warp... My true love moved away and left me and Pac got murdered in the same week and my heart broke, and I ain't ever been the same since, I just got stuck there and never moved on... I am not of this rhyme... ...and I am not finna waste my time forcing trash music from a trash era down... when there is still so much to discover and uncover from the golden eras. You know it wasn't until just last week that I really bumped Biz Markie? Sure I knew him, and had seen him in numerous videos, interviews, documentaries, bits and pieces, etc... but I mean actually sit and give a serious listen through his music with all my focus and attention I had never done that until just last week..They say ODB is the ol dirty bastard but he ain't a bastard (I'm a bastard my bio father was an anonymous sperm donor artificial insemination I'm more bastard than he is)... ODB has a father--- the father to his style is BIZ MARKIE!! Go check out some Biz Markie in depth and then go back and watch ODB again through the lens of Biz.. even U-God said it
I never was really a fan of the Bay Area music of the 90's, I went back in recent years and listened to 40, Short, Spice 1, Luniz and learned to appreciate them as well
Bay Area shit is like No Limit to me... sub par and 3rd rate. In fact it’s about like KC rap and Kansas City and the Bay always had a link I even had a girlfriend that was E-40’s cousin some years back
Sub par and 3rd rate? You need to clean your fuckin' ears. I don't think you understand how stupid this shit makes you look.
not a fan of No Limit so Im not really going to comment on themas far as the Bay they basically got no airplay here in NYC even on mix shows...Luniz "I Got 5 On It" being the exception. My only exposure came through The Box and BET Rap City. I did get the Luniz single and Rappin 4-Tays "Ain't No Playa" at the local mom and pop near my house. I gave the Bay a chance sometime around the late 2000s and discovered I really dug their style. I still prefer LA rap but expanded my horizonsanyway maybe the Bay is not your cup of tea but to call them 3rd rate is pretty much an insult when they have as many legends as any region
have as many legends as any region? Please stack up their legends to legends from L.A. or N.Y., there is no comparison... or take just Queensbridge alone, or Atlanta, if you want to be more fair... I was a fan of Rappin 4 Tay "I'll Be There" and "PLayer's Club" in the day, Too Short "Gettin It"... some of my all time favorite songs. But that's not saying much. I still say they are 3rd rate just like I say No Limit is 3rd rate. I'm not hating on them. No Limit, I was a big fan of the I'm Bout It project both the movie and album. I also bumped a lot of there other shit is just didn't age well.I do put them behind East Coast, West Coast, Atlanta, Detroit. But in their defense I do put them ahead of anything Kansas City or South hip-hop (excluding Atlanta) like Cash Money type shit
