Title: Where's the underground???
Post by: Funkadelic on October 03, 2002, 03:50:28 AM
I'm very tired of all these Snoop, Dre, Xzibit and even Eminem threats at the board. There are to many at the moment. I don't have a problem with talking about them, but not everytime.

I remember times (when I wasn't a member and have just read the board) when there were many cool underground infos floating around here. At the moments there are only a few people here, who discuss about the underground like Axle, Lil Jay, SGV (the others I don't name, know who they are)...

Let me know, what you think about this "situation".

I know what ur sayin, but thats just how it is, u cant change it  :-/, there will always be more attention to those artists. Plus, it ain't easy for european peeps to buy stuff from underground artists.

it aint that easy u know.. u start with commercial artists and then u get more into less famous rappers..

I try. I try and post up news bout bay cds and shit like that. I couldnt care less about some of the shit here. I only argue about eminem and dre cause thats all i have to argue about here. Ive made a note not to go in any more Dr DRe threads. Theres always someone that pisses me off by acting like he knows hip hop inside out and says dre and em are the greatest. Dont worry. You cant survive off dre/snoop/pac/eminem cds all your life. Sooner or later they'll all turn to the underground. If you stick with rap music you'll always dig deeper.

You have to know that I'm checking your posts. I know that you provide some info here, also you have some enemies. But there are so many others, who don't care about the "real" music.
Title: Re: Where's the underground???
Post by: AxleF on October 04, 2002, 05:18:43 AM
Yup.. this is tru.  Most of the underground news gets over looked and it sucks.  But there is alot of underground info that we all have its just that everyone is tired of their threads being overlooked so some dont post as much.  

Siccness for underground info is dope.  Gotta admit.. but if you see shit over there that would be important here.. talk about it.  Theres nothing wrong with using Siccness as a resource as long as you quote the source.

SVG, GT, G-Funk and Funk D, (and many others not mentioned.. but they know..) IMO are in a class by themselves.  These cats keep up with some classic beats man.  I guess what Im sayin Funk-D.. is just dont get frustrated and please keep hittin us with the info.  Even though eveyone doesn't reply.. I'm knowin that everyone appreciates..

whats with all the "real" music shit jus cause
its mainstream promoted and broadcast world wide
makes it fake? Nigga Please those underground cats
trying to do the same thing as the mainstream artist
sell records and make money they jus do it diffrently
instead of a major label to get there shit world wide
they do it independtly which even if yea you keep all sales
you still aint gonna be as rich as a mainstream artist
and dont give me that they keep it real BS
cause if a major label offerd them somthing good
they gon take it cause they hungry and need money
not ery underground artist can be like Lil Flip

aint nothin wrong wit being famous world wide its a good thing
and the music mainstream makes is still music jus cause you
dont feel it dont mean the next man wont

and most of you obssessd with a gangsta and ghetto life
yall wish you lived and yet no nothing about And this dont apply to all of you i know there are some here who know bout the gang shit for real but for those who gonna reply saying
how i dont know what im talkin about and for those

The reason is theres a wide range of underground rappers. Way more than mainstream. And the reason of this thread is that it grows tiresom reading about the same 5 people over and over and over... You can only listen to 5 artists and bitch about dre being slow or you can go underground where theres somthing new and dope realesed every week.

There is a HUGE dIfference between underground and independent rap. Underground moves away from the sex, gunplay and bling shit. An independent rapper embraces the mysogony and bling shit without having a major telling them how to do it. I'm an underground fiend and I hate when people confuse the two. >:(
