Title: If I Don't Like Mainstream...
Post by: SGV on November 01, 2003, 01:42:15 PM
Why do I like artists such as: The Neptunes, Clipse, Nore, Luda, P.Diddy, Da Band, Chingy, Baby, Lil Wayne etc.? Just because I talk bad about 50, Em, Dre and Snoop don't mean I hate the mainstream. It means I got a mind of my own.

It means I got a mind of my own.

u got the answer right there.. not exactly as u put it though.. shoulda said "because it makes me feel I have a mind of my own, listening to hated on artists like Neptunes, P. Diddy and the whole south"

Dre, Em, 50, Snoop all get props.. so u gotta hate em.. god knows why

Neptunes are hated? Really...Only on this board I guess. Diddy gets props, maybe not from you, but from a lot of people he does. The South, well damn I've been a South fan since the early 90's so let's get off that tip. Dre is OK, but he's getting lame. Em has NO replay value and destroyed himself with the gunplay lyrics. 50, haven't liked that scumbag since I first heard "How To Rob" on The Wake Up Show back in 99, again, get off that tip. Snooper Dooper, well he's booty. Everyone knows it. But, he's still popular.

I don't need to "feel" that I have a mind of my own, I know I do. I don't need to follow what the next man says, I dictate what I like. Just because WCC says someones dope, don't mean I think so. Only a few cats on here are like that. Lincoln and Hatesrats, pretty much.

You're saying most rap fans don't like the South? Is that why Lil Jon is the best producer out right now? Is that why the Neptunes and Timbaland are some of the biggest producers around? Is that why Luda, Lil Flip, Baby and others from the South sell so much? Oh right. WCC hates the South. WCC must equal most rap fans  ::)

p.diddy and the neptunes are generally hated by most people who refer to themselves as 'hiphop heads' such as alotta people on internet boards.. it's for sure not just dubcc

how would u know that people who like Dre, Em and 50 like em cuz wcc says they dope..?

Lincoln and Haterats are just 2 guys u often agree with and as for Lincoln's part who disslike 50 and Em as u do.. not sure about Haterats, he doesn't seem that sure about it himself sometimes

sayin they are the only ones with a mind od their own cuz u share alot of opinions with em is stupid

as for Em, u talk like it's a fact he ain't got no replay value.. there're millions of people bumpin his music so he obviously does.. if u can't stand it that's ur thang but he got skills and u can't use that "replay value" argument cuz that's just ur opinion/taste

I talk to plenty of Hip Hop Heads, they got a lot of love for The Neptunes. The people who hate Neptunes hate them for the same fact they accuse me of hating 50/Dre, becuase they're successful. Diddy gets props from anyone who looks at his business sense. He's one of the best business men to touch Hip Hop. He gets nothing but respect from me for that.

So, you know what? If I'm a hater, then so are you and everyone else who hates Diddy, Neptunes and Chingy.

Lincoln and Hatesrats say what they feel, and I respect that. I usually don't see the same from others.

Eminem has NO replay value TO ME. That's enough reason for me not to like him. If I can't bump your music more than twice, then it's not that good. As an emcee he's overrated. He has a dope rhyme scheme, but his content is redundant. He talks about the same bullshit time and time again. I'm tired of hearing how he hates his mom. It's real fucking annoying. I'm tired of hearing about Kim. Switch up topics sometimes. And, now that Em is the number 1 studio thug, it's even worse. A majority of his beats are full of "bullet" sounds. He's always talking about how he's gonna kill this person and stomp someone else. What happened to the Em who was having fun on the mic? People say he's became mature, well if talking about blasting people is mature, then I guess they're right.

well it doesn't make much sense if we both talk about the hiphop fans we know that hate/respect those people we hate/respect that's why I judge it considering to whatit's like on the net.. cuz I can prove it/u know it which ain't the case when we talkin about who we know personally..
so if u think it's only dubcc who hates em, maybe u feel like u have to be the one to make it fair or something by hatin on the ones who get (in ur opinion too much) love and showin love to the ones u consider underrated/that are hated on

anyway the reason I don't like P.Diddy very much for is that I don't see rapping skills or like his style as for his own music and I don't feel most of the music he gets into the charts.. mostly RnB affiliated.. as for the neptunes i don't feel em that much, they got some dope bets but it's not my style and I hate pharrel for his voice and everything as an artist

and that's why I ignore most threads about em.. I don't come in and start hatin every opportunity there is(n't).. that's why I'm still not a hater

I'm talking about real life heads. Not some kid on the net. But, on SOHH I remember seeing Diddy and The Neptunes getting props, a lot.

so if u think it's only dubcc who hates em, maybe u feel like u have to be the one to make it fair or something by hatin on the ones who get (in ur opinion too much) love and showin love to the ones u consider underrated/that are hated on

I don't hate on them, I just point out the double standards and contradictions in all the Shady/Aftermath fans. They hate on people like Ja, but 50 will do the exact same thing.

anyway the reason I don't like P.Diddy very much for is that I don't see rapping skills or like his style as for his own music and I don't feel most of the music he gets into the charts.. mostly RnB affiliated.. as for the neptunes i don't feel em that much, they got some dope bets but it's not my style and I hate pharrel for his voice and everything as an artist

You don't see rapping skills in Diddy, so why do you like Dre? Neither of them write their own lyrics. Double standard? Perhaps. As for the Neptunes, they're a real dope production crew. They knocked out so many hits, it's not funny. Pharrel is a dope artist, his voice makes him unique, and his outlook on the world and music industry is what makes me a fan.

and that's why I ignore most threads about em.. I don't come in and start hatin every opportunity there is(n't).. that's why I'm still not a hater

So, I'm a hater if I express my dislike for someone? That's a shame. I guess you're not allowed to talk freely then. I guess I should just bite my tongue, since it gets me labeled as a hater.  ::)

LoL! Although they both don't write their own lyrics, I see a lil' difference between Diddy's voice/flow/delivery and Dre's ::) He's on a WAY higher level as emcee, even if he needs ghostwriters.

LMAO @ Way higher level. Dre's flow is coo, nothing more. Diddy ain't that much worse than Dre.

I don't feel like arguing about how hated they are /are not fact is on dubcc they are which might be a reason for u defend em

u do hate without a doubt and u bringin them in every topic.. and u're tryin to find double standards .. u tried to see a double standard when I said dissing people that hard just for attention is pathetic when I already admitted it's pathetic for everybody inlcueding 50.. when I asked u where the double standard is at u just didn't answer no more LoL..

I like Dre's rapping style and he got a dope flow.. if u disagree let's not talk about it now, fact is I like his voice and style so i like his rapping..

Nelly is unique too, still wack.. I can't stand pharrel's voice but that doesn't matter  what matters is I'm not a hater for the reasons I already mentioned


lol there's a slightly difference bewteen "not bitin ones tongue" and doing what u do..

of course u should be able to express ur opinion on a board but the fact is everybody knows this opinion for ages and u repeat the same shit over and over again and u bring em up whenever u can and u open threads about em and so on.. ur obsessed with telling everybody what a talentless fake 50 and how overrated em is.. let it go for once and concentrate on something u like

"Dre's flow is coo" and Puffy's flow is ridiculous ::) Dre's voice is tight and Puffy's voice is unbearable ::) ...

BTW: Did you know that Puffy doesn't even choose his own flow for his parts? G. Dep once said in an interview that either Black Rob or G. Dep himself has to record Diddy's parts before he's recordin' them, so that he recognizes how to flow right. I don't know why Dep said this (Puffy is still his CEO and this fact made him look more stupid than the biggest hater expected), but he DEFINITELY said it (if you want I'll search the article [was from a German hip-hop magazine] and translate it, so that you can see it).

So as you can see: Puffy is the shit fo' sure :o ::)

Thanks for the props SGV. I feel what you saying with that not going along with the masses. For example, no one was talking shit about Ja until they found out 50 dissed him. And they didn't find out about him til Em signed him. That's one of literally dozens of examples of going with the masses I see on this forum.

I don't understand either why people always gotta hate on whos on top. I don't hate on lil jon because he is big right now i hate on him because Vanilla Ice has better lyrics\flow..I understand the cool thing to do is hate people people who are doing shit. But at least I don't see Eminem workin with B2k and a shitload of RNB singers..He is doing his own shit. To say he is a studio thug is stupid..Every single rapper says they would do shit that they never would do in real life..DO u really think Brotha Lynch eats babies or Necro sayin hes gonna kill everybody. If any rapper did the shit they said in there songs. Every one of them would be rotting in jail..SO everybody is studio thugs I guess

SGV, get a fucking grip dude!  So now you like hiphop artists because of their business sense?????  SOme of you guys are starting to kill me, whatever happened to just likeing the music and saying fuck all the politics?

I like Diddy, but you like him cuz he is a good businessman, yet you dont like Eminem (is he not a good businessman- apparently this talentless muthafucka (in your opinion)somehow tricked record numbers of people to buy his albums- genius business to me!).  U use the replay value factor, but that shit is lame.  Replay value is OPINION! like myself, i got sick of Jiggas BLueprint damn quick, so to me it aint a classic.  But to many others it still is.......you also said Lynch Hungs debut is better than the original Chronic and DOggystyle cuz it has more replay value, once again opinion.  You realize all your arguments are bases on opinions and biases, right? Try being a little more open to others views and others will be more open to yours.  

To some Neptunes and crunk music is wack, to others snoop and aftermath camp is wack!  U know why?  Everyone has opinions, we just all act like our opinion is FACT!

on diddy dre thing.............

dre- flow/vioce on another level, and from what ive heard is that he changes alot of the lines written for him to make it sound better, and alot of times gives themes of songs to the ghost writers, and only says things he feels fit him and his persona

diddy- terrable fow most of the time, vioce below average....nough said

Speak for yourself.  I've been hating on Ja rule since his debut.  I don't even listen to 50 cent or eminem.  I'm a true Ja Rule hater

I'll put it like this:

SGV likes to defend artists that isn't popular at the time, and praise unknown artists, usually in comparison with a very popular artist, usually in a exaggerated and unrealistic manner to make people notice, but often causing the opposite.

In other words, SGV is a fan of going against the grain even how many people he might have against him, instead of just looking at the raw facts and agree with the masses for once.

Case closed.  8)

that's complete bullshit.. if u didn't realize the hatin on Ja WAY before 50 got signed u obviously overlooked dozens of threads.. eversince Pain Is Love people hated on him for the music and the fact that he's all on Pac's dick

sorry dude, but i have to completely agree with teecee on this one, you're trippin' man, why do you care so much about what other people think about your taste of music.. just listen to the music you like and thats it.. no need for all the controversy because you know DAMN right that threads like this one cause contreversy (maybe thats the point tho?)
