  1. RAP INGENERAL

    in Jazzy Jeff & Fresh Prince

    Posted

    The sad thing is for the young teens now that are in high school who only seen the commercial side of hip-hop(sex,drugs,cash,clothes,Cristal), how will they be original if they see nothin' original out there?!! :dunno: They'll talk about the same things when they make their demo tapes 'cause they'll think "Oh THIS is the way I'll get famous"! :cussing: To be honest though I did the same thing when I first started rapping at 15, but by the time I was 17 I hated that style and started to listen to more of old school hip-hop and decided to be myself more 'cause it felt worthless imitating others, I remember more kids in my high school liked my rapping when I tried to act commercial, but I don't care who likes me 'cause I feel better when I'm myself! :peace:

    His voice didn't change that much between "Big Willie Style" and "Born To Reign" his voice is totally different from "Code Red", nothin' else he did since sounded like "Code Red" with his voice! I just don't get it 'cause I don't see any boxers voices change so it couldn't have been from "Ali" training! :dunno:

    The thing is hip-hop is everywhere these days so there's no pressure on a lot of these new rappers getting record deals to raise the bar creatively 'cause their record sales have always been high unlike when it was the mid-'80s and early-'90s where it was harder for hip-hop to be accepted in mainstream! Think about this way "He's the DJ, I'm The Rapper" was a classic hip-hop CD, but it only sold 2 million copies and Eminem sold more than 7 million copies apiece doing "The Marshall Mathers LP" and "The Eminem Show" but the albums weren't as hot from beginning to end as "He's the DJ,I'm The Rapper". If Eminem was releasing those albums 10-15 years ago he wouldn't be selling as much 'cause back then, nobody did! Dr.Dre's "The Chronic" set the standard for hip-hop in the '90s but only sold 3 million copies, but each of his protege(Eminem) albums sold more than that and that's a disgrace when Eminem's an average rapper at best. Ludicris, Jay-Z, and Eminem have been doing the same thing for the last 6 years but they always go multiplatinum. I liked them when they 1st came out but they got boring. I admire artists like Will Smith, The Roots, Nas, and Common 'cause at least they attempted to do something DIFFERENT with all of their albums! As long as hip-hop remains mainstream there won't be motivation for originality unless you check for the underground scene.

    I got out of line m.c's sweatin' over my appeal on statements
    I shot out runs like Rickey Henderson 'cause I'm stealing bases
    I always find my way to home plate
    Since you're that lame catcher
    When you lose your craft, lame rapper
    It's gonna be hard for you to catch up
    I'm the all star celebrity and you're a back up
    If you're not on my team then the losses occur to stack up
    So you only play garbage minutes
    Go fool your opportunity away and you're on the practice squad again
    I already scored 50 points today when your ass got ripped
    The coach didn't bother callin' your name to check back in
    He caught you were already nappin'
    He said you're a problem and waste of a pay check and wacked ya head
    In front of the rest of your team
    Big Ted is the best of the league
    And you're heading to a developmental league
    You'll have to file for unemployment
    After I destroyed your ankle you're annoyed
    That I made you return to rehab
    And your only time in the majors will occur only as
    Being a towel boy is your only chance
    Until the owner's son beats you to it
    Don't get all sentimental from my rhyme scheme, I'm only foolin'
    But seriously you don't have much of a chance of winning
    Over the accuracy of the stuff that I'm spitting
    I have more velocity than Roger Clemens
    I can't store mercy when I got the shot to win
    I jam to exert heat and I block your shot again
    Like Mutombo and wave my finger, "not in my house trick"
    Is what I'll be yellin'
    I'll be buldin' a dynasty similiar to when Russel was leading the Celtics

    Hey J-O-E, I only replied to your post 'cause u replied to mine, ain't nothin' personal, we'll see what happens when the REAL battle begins! I'm comin' out swingin' 'cause this is only an exhibition for me, you ain't seen nothin' yet!

    What up J-O-E
    You ain't gonna cut Big T-E-D
    I ain't a thug but I rip m.c.'s
    Your hype's lame 'cause you try to impress shorties
    But you slide away embarassed off of corny lines
    That are foolish pride to say, not facts, something that a softee like you would supply
    You couldn't mess wit me
    You're so lost and empty like your opportunity to lose your virginity
    The only moment you will get laid is when you play with your puppet
    Keep it real I can tell that you're fake and not really thuggin'
    You're playing skills ain't worth 50 cents
    You don't have a gun
    You're slow and can't blast to run
    I don't need a crew
    Try to front that weak will get your act thru
    We're not on the even playin' field
    I'm like Jordan I got titles
    And you sound like you were booted off of American Idol
    You got knocked on your spine wit boos and you're gaspin' for survival
    The sad thing is that your only girlfriend got me on speed dial
    When she comes to my crib she always screams my name she's like a member of Destiny's child
    And she told me that that whenever she went out with you you peed in your pants
    That's when she stepped away from J-o-e to get wit Big T-e-d who's a real man

    im sure Eminem probably secretly liked "Parents Just Don't Understand". He can even relate to that in a way.[/quote]
    :werd: Eminem said that his favorite rappers growing up were Run-Dmc, Slick Rick, N.W.A., and LL Cool J, so I bet that he liked JJFP too but he just fronts like he didn't!
