Title: Why r bad rappers popular
Post by: HBKid_Jr on August 08, 2001, 09:54:37 AM
Why is that rappers like master P an Ja-Rule are big stars but yet rappers like Daz an Kurupt aren't even known.  I had friends say that Eminem sux,  this comes from a person that told me to make a cd wit masterp an trick daddy songs.  I had peeps tell me tha song I aint mad at cha suck.  I had a friend tell that only homo's listen to Nutin but a G thang an Gin & Juice, this comin from a person that downloded nysnc bye bye bye an shitty rap.  This person also said if Pac was still alive that he would of killed him.  I went nuts on him,  he's lucky he said it online cuz if he said that to me in person cuz i would of fucked him up.  I cant stand that shit, i hate peeps that listen to rap jus for tha bass.  My friend gives me rides home from work an his music is this shit wit all bass u cant hear anything else, no words or anything.  What gives wit this.  Why do people like shitty rap.  Why do magazines show them love while good rappers get no respect.

IMO one of the reason's are that these rappers come

wit a pop element to their material. This makes their

music attractive 2 pop fans that think that this is the

only Hip-Hop music available. These people don't

appreciate the hardcore side 2 Hip-Hop, as they r not

real Hip-Hop fans. Thats y magazine's give them

covers as they know it will sell. It jus' a big marketing

scam. But IMO P ain't all that bad. I've bumpd some

of his shit, & I think some of the callabo's wit Cube r

aight.

Even though i laughed at the time, thinking about it their sad ... they think i'm really strange cause i only listen to rap  :o

pop rap is cool, you can party to it, but you can rarely LISTEN to it

it's all about the record sales which leads to the $$$...dudes like ja rule and jay-z know what the fans want therefor they sell multi-platinum cds...kurupt is not a big hit-maker rather he is a raw uncut motherfucker who just rips the mic up. you have to know what the people want and that's for you to sell out whatever you've been doing previous, you know, peace.

i kno people say ... like "DAMN MASTER P IS THA SHIT NO ONE IS BETTER THAN HIM' and im like 'yeah sure,."
well thas reason why nelly and them is popular is cuz for example: nelly... has party songs and everyone listens to them ...ALL THA TYME..... its just got pop flavor that makes it more popular and catchy.... but like people liek nelly go tooo far.. and trick daddy is pissin me off with that "maybe cuz i'm a thug"...
so thas how it is for me... things just happen that way
