Why no love for what mobb deep has done in the game

Egotistical hyperbole, huh? And I wouldn't say that everything NWA dd iwas a "joke".  But you were on point saying that the majorirty of shit they said was to get a rise out of people - a la "Fuck The Police".  I really think they had that mentality at that age, but they definitly knew that controversy sells. Now of course they weren't walking around shooting people and shit, but neither are most people that talk about it in their raps.  As for the heavy metal thing, there are some bands that are really into some fucked up shit.  I suggest you do some research on the band "Deicide". See if you think they are joking.

And you don't think that if the movie scarface was never made, that rap wouldn't be any different?  Well one of my favorite rappers is a guy named scarface. So yeah he would have a different name.  And the classic line in "NY state of mind" - I'm like scarface sniffin cocaine, holdin the M-16, see with the pen I'm extreme.  We wouldn't have that line now, would we? So i think you're overlooking how significant some of these things are to hip hop. Their effects are pretty intangible, but they are definitely there.

pappy:
lol, shit scarface has a huge impact on rap.

Shallow:
Actually Al Capone's nick name was Scarface, so the rapper may have gotten it from there. Even if it were from the movie, his name could just as easily have been Corleone, and it wouldn't be big difference. I didn't mean that Scarface isn't present in the rap scene, I just mean that another movie would take it's place, and quite easily.

As for the Metal band you speak of, I'm not stating that every band claiming to be satanic is not, but the majority of the bands, particularly in the some what main stream that were accused of worshipping and embraced Satan were full of shit. Look how Ozzy "promoted" suicide, he's still alive and having fun.

I Heart Mobb Deep

smartass:
i guess im the only one whos never seen this "no love" for the mobb

havoc is the 2nd best rapper/producer, behind lord finesse

prodigy was a top 5 mc in 96

they brought no originality because they got their style from g rap

if they would've retired after murda muzik, their legacy would be much better

p is just looked upon as a joke, and alchemist is making havocs speciality better than he is, and hes been past his prime for about 5 years now.

just for the record:prodigy ripped 2pac to shreds on a few occasions. you dickriders need to get over it already, cause he was still alive at the time, and if you got hell on earth when it was first released, you would know this because both drop a gem on em, and in the long run were on there.
