Title: Rakim's "After You Die" is way better than that Busta Rhymes track
Post by: TraceOneInfinite Flat Earther 96' on July 27, 2006, 12:38:28 PM

Yo.. I know I'm way late, but I just now heard Rakim's "After You Die" and I was really impressed, I also remember hearing a similar track on Busta Rhymes album?  Is that right?  It wasn't nothin compared to Rakim's version.

Correct?

i disagree. When I heard the Rakim version last year I thought it came off soft. Busta's version came off very grimm and Dre added the sample to make it real stylish.

Rakim is a far better mc (the greatest, imo)... but Busta's song was far superior.... from the concept, the execution, the creativity and the hook.

15. Legend Of The Fall Offs

probably used the hook, none of them wrote it

busta song is better though

I love Rakims track, it's sick as fuck IMO! The lyrics are great, and I fuckin' love the way he flows, and how he starts rapping "in the middle of the bar"..

Busta's track wasn't all that...
