bigted Posted January 17, 2005 Report Share Posted January 17, 2005 When people look back on 2005 hip-hop in 2050 they'll say that the best mcs weren't on major labels and didn't get airplay, sooner or later the underground will get it's due! :ditto: If Will became the 1st black president the world'll be a better place. :bowdown: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JumpinJack AJ Posted January 17, 2005 Report Share Posted January 17, 2005 50 years from now, nobody will look back on this era of Hip-Hop and remember much. Maybe Black Eyed Peas and OutKast. People like 50 Cent may be hot now...but their music and careers are disposable and everything will be 4gotten. Nobody's gonna look back at people like him like Rakim, Public Enemy, 2pac and so on.

Public Enemy,MC Hammer, Rakim, and KRS-ONE are still in the game after almost 20 years and are capable of being in the game for another 20, even though they haven't sold much in recent years their quality doesn't slip, so that's why they'll be remember years ahead just like James Brown will be.

JumpinJack AJ Posted January 19, 2005 Report Share Posted January 19, 2005 bigted, yet another post i agree with u on. Back in the day, the industry wasn't the same. Singles were put out all the time, shows were done differently, radio waz the main source of what waz good. These days it's very closed 2 who can get success in Hip-Hop/Rap. It's who u know and has nothing 2 do with talent. Public Enemy and other acts like that are legendary. U won't find their recent albums at the top of the charts, but u will find them in stores, 100s of fans at their concerts, and u'll read props 2 them in Hip-Hop magazines. Has anyone ever read or heard anyone give G-Unit or Chingy props for their lyrical ability or amazing production. No way...cuz they don't have anything good 2 offer. Only their mislead fans have good things 2 say about them. Anyone who says 50 Cent, Ja-Rule, Nelly, or any of those other fools are some of the best artists in Rap history have seriously malnurished ears. They get fed crap, but it's nothing good 4 the soul.

bigted Posted January 19, 2005 Report Share Posted January 19, 2005 I ain't hating on 50 but I'm just speaking how I feel, I haven't listened to "Get Rich Or Die Trying" in over a year, that album is way overrated, I like some of his underground stuff but I wouldn't consider it legendary, there's no day in my life I'd ever consider him a better lyricist than KRS-ONE, I don't give a damn how many albums 50 puts out in his life there's no way that he could make as many songs with a soulful meaning that KRS has, and btw every mc in the game forever should give props to James Brown 'cause without him there wouldn't be hip-hop, respect the ol' school damn it!
