These Rappers who are Classics in there time and now who are in their late 30's and 40's and some even in the 50's are talking so much shit for no reason what so ever.... Guys you haven't even made a hit Album let alone a Hit single in who knows how long. Yes I get the fact that radio plays some BULLSHIT, but you can't complain if you don't do something new or do something to change the game for the better. You can't make the same shit forever and expect to make money at it. Every artist (music, painting, fashion, photography, graphic design and so on) has to change and grow over time.
I love how these guys claim New York and want their shit played on New York radio. Come on now, you should want your shit played on every radio station world wide. Music or being an artist is a business just like everything else. Figure out how to be successful everywhere not just one place. Also music isn't multiple genre's anymore, it's everything blended together. Step outside of the box guys. Rap isn't about killing, slingin' rock, ladies, and your dumb as bank roll in your pocket or even 94 beats per minute! Rap isn't just about the hood either. The Loxs look like they just stepped out of a time machine from 1998. It's been 11 years guys, the game has changed. Wake up and smell the folgers coffee. Hell, N.O.R.E is even on a MSTRKRFT joint.
Lox also comment on "The BAR" being on the floor. What? Just take a look at Kanye West, Cool Kids, or Lil Wayne! These guys are getting played everywhere. Even the Fucking moon. The Lox can't even touch the bar to try a pull-up!
The Dream ft. Kanye West "Walking On The Moon"
Lox you are no where near classic status as the names you popped off in the beginning of who you love. You will never be a Nas, ODB, RZA, Big Daddy Kane, Ghostface, Black Moon, Puff Daddy, Jay-Z, or B.I.G..
Kid Cudi is more amazing than you guys are and he only has an E.P. out!
Skinny jeans? You guys don't even know what style is or even how to dress yourselves. Jay-z or Kanye needs to get them all together and go shopping.
maaaannnn. FUCK SKINNY JEANS!!!
ReplyDelete*takes off skinny jeans*
*puts skinny jeans in closet*
I didn't see this OhBe!!!
ReplyDelete"Kid Cudi is more amazing than you guys are and he only has an E.P. out!"
let's not go crazy OhBe...these guys have classic joints under their belt!
Yeah thanks to swizz beatz. The only songs that I can think of that were real good aren't even their songs. The have the Busta Rhymes syndrome. Awesome on everyone else's tracks but their own.
ReplyDeleteTracks that are good. Money, Power, Respect!
Everything else is either a DMX track, a Biggie track, or a Diddy track.
I Get High
ReplyDeleteWe Gon Make It
Why
my life
these are classics.
Busta Rhymes Syndrome!!!!
Busta had SUPER TIGHT solo joints!
Have you ever heard The Coming,When Disaster Strikes, and Extinction Level Event???
Thanks to Swizz Beats!!!
c'mon ...give the rappers a lil credit
Kid Cudi???
I'm not even going to get into why there is NO comparison between the rappers we've discussed and Kid Cudi. I could write a thesis on that.
let's give credit where credit is due. guest appearance or not. what's hot is hot. These guys WERE hot.
dude... the Lox aint never been dope as a group- they got some cool stuff here and there. but all and all if they died in there sleep tonight the world would not care a bit.
ReplyDeleteDamn Grey I wasn't even that harsh! LOL
ReplyDeleteIf Kool Herc died in his sleep the world would not care...your point is what???
ReplyDeleteI'm not saying they're the BEST group in the world.
I'm just saying comparing them to Kid Cudi is uber-ridiculous.
Yes.They are grumpy old complaining men but let's not downplay their accomplishments as artists. Or start comparing then to new-jacks. I've had discussions with people who told me Illmatic was not as good as Lupe Fiascos The Cool...thats just wrong.
I'm on J's team on this one.
ReplyDeletew00t. we gon teach these hipster motherfuckers!
ReplyDeleteI'm not even a hipster lol...... I agree with you on the Nas tip. Nas changed the game and made a 5 star classic album and has contributed to the game ever since. Lox they haven't done much at all. It looks like they only have 4 songs you named and 1 that I did makes 5. They have never made a classic album! They should never make it in the Hip-Hop Hall of fame.
ReplyDeleteI'm just frustrated about how they think their are the greatest rappers and that "the bar" is on the floor. There is so many people out here in this world doing remarkable things to show greatness and to change the world. They need to recognize, stop hating and step up there game....
i can feel that ohbe.
