Rap: Going way downhill?

[beastie fresh]

I mean.. its getting bad when you have to rap about candy

[adam_f]

It's Puffy's fault. I really don't feel like getting into it.

[ASsman]

Die or Die, Puffy.

[jackrock]

I mean.. its getting bad when you have to rap about candy
and window shopping (n) (n) :mad:

[kleptomaniac]

Die or Die, Puffy.

actually, he goes by "diddy" now


Die or Die, Diddy.

[Chicka B]

You're not talking about Laffy Taffy are you? Or that one song by TrillVille with Ludacris and Lil Kim. Holy shit you're right! :eek:

[beastie fresh]

You forgot candy shop also... I mean come on next its going to be singing about Toy's R US

[Vladimir]

Yeah P.Shitty royally fucked up the direction of mainstream rap, but scene is not helped by the mass influx of southern rappers who are functionally illiterate and completely incapable of opening their mouths. Or rhyming.

Not to say mainstream NYC and West Coast rappers are doing a lot of impressive shit right now. Basically it has become pop product.

[Chicka B]

I think the worst rap I've heard besides 50 Cent is the rapper in that song by Chris Brown or something. Don't tell me this ain't bad:

Make it drop honey...
Make it pop honey...
Whip, whop..
Tick, tock to da clock fo me
don't stop doin that
and shawty know I mean what I say so she won't stop doin dat
Plus I heard if you can dance you can bump
Well dance is up let's go, let's go(yup)
we can get it in...
we can gets some friends
do it like the ying yang twins
(Whisperin)
wait til' you see my....
wait til' you see my...
let me fall back
You ain't ready for all dat
have you sleep late
real late
yeah takin a long nap
you teel your friends...
to get wit my friends
we can be friends
switch and meet friends(switch)
we can do it all night long, and...
til' da clock hit mornin ya dig

[Burnout18]

mike jones, paul wall, slim thug, and from a distance: chamillionaire

[The Notorious LOL]

the last good year for rap was 1998 I think. Since then everythings been getting worse and worse.

[Bob]

[ericlee]

you cant remember the rappers name, yet, you memorized the lyrics?

besides, juelz wasnt ever known to be a "deep lyricist" or anything, but he sounds good. its just music.

LMFAO! You can't be serious!!!!!!!

:confused:
Can you?




New kids on the block had a buncha hits.............

[Kid Presentable]

Fuck that. Hip hop has a history now. If you aren't feeling it, start diggin.

I don't listen to the radio often and when I did, I heard that song. My fricken daughter could write better lyrics than that shit.

[Subculture]

blah blah blah....

If u only listen to whats on the radio of course its gonna feel like its going downhill. Rap nerds have been predicting the apocalypse of hip hop since Hammer threw on his baggy joints. Trash eventually dies and quality lasts period. If u not feeling hip hop now start digging in the crates there is loads of dope stuff. Refer to my best hip hop in the last 5 years thread.

[alexandra]

and window shopping (n) (n) :mad:
or getting peed on by Gwen Stefani. (?)

[ASsman]

No, I'm all about that. Candy not so much. But Gwenny can relieve herself on me any day.

Naw I looked it up on the internet but it didn't mention the rapper's name, it just had the lyrics. But I remember hearing that and being like "what? That don't rhyme!" But I ain't a hip hop expert, so don't take what I say seriously. :p ;) And I know Santana Juelz song "here it go (the whistle song)" , I'm surprised he's the one that rapped in that run it song. :eek:

[wrongwayandugg]

I just hope they make a remix of Laffy Taffy with Beyonce. She has been out of the game for a minute. I saw destiny's child on the new mcdonald's commercial. that was spectacular. laffy taffy with beyonce. start a poll and let's show them how much we need that. we demand that. thank you kindly.

[pshabi]

I don't think you're ready for this taffy!

Right On very true , it's always horrible, except for the golden age which is why it was called the golden age of Hip Hop or Rap.

I thought it was just all the gold...

how does that even make sense?!

[Kid Presentable]

Of course it doesn't make sense. I'm sorry, you had somebody explaining something even simpler to you at the time, and were confused by the dreaded 'Two things happening at once.'

If you are indeed displeased with today's crop of artists or music, feel free to ensconse yourself in the now deep history of hip-hop. Relive the glory days of the Disco scene, the battles and parties. The Snoop Doggs, the Wu Tang Clans.

There has been far too much quality music in the past for anybody to ever be able to justify giving up on a style due to their distaste for the contemporary.

Nice try, though. ;)

[g-mile7]

Laffy Taffy a banger'....and thats what its supposed to be a stupid mainstream effort' and its working

[paul jones]

it's just a shame ODB aint around to make more albums like 'Nigga Please' :(
