DMX on Drake lol

[pkay]

Or fuck lets get crazy. Vanilla ice made better club bangers than half of Miami in the 80's.... nevermind he wasn't from Miami its excusable fraud yeah?

[Today]

who the fuck is riff raff

almost every good rapper was fake or out of the criminal lifestyle by the time they started making great records
the majority of fans don't give a shit
hip hop nerds and wannabe drug dealers do
Real gangsters wish they were fake rappers

We are talking biographical vs autobiographical but in this case the storyteller has inserted themselves in the story in place of the subject. That becomes fiction and I'm not sure why you have a problem with me calling a spade a spade

From there a huge difference between narratives and making yourself the subject.

I'm hard vs they're hard vs we.are hard vs I knew some.hard folks.but I'm going to pretend I'm them

What do you think of Kitty Pryde?

Gimmicky pop rap by someone who admits they're as much. If dmx admitted he was a joke or stopped trying to be hard when the mic was off I could.maybe respect him as an act but he's not so I can't respect what he's trying to pass himself off as

Sure, but no one's realer than her. Cute white girl in love with her boyfriend rapping about being a cute white girl in love with her boyfriend. So by your logic, she should be an awesome rapper.

It doesn't make her a great rapper but I have more respect for her art than dmxs.

Tbf, DMX has gotten in a fair bit of trouble over the years: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DMX_(rapper)#Legal_issues

lol

i would just have more respect for the better rapper
because good rap isn't easy
and that's the only part you know for sure when it comes out of the speakers
lol @ the idea of having to do background research before i can decide who's art i respect more

[Today]

i got less respect for Drake cuz he raps about soft shit like saving hoes from the strip club and talking on the phone with them and that faggotry

then comes back on the mic trying to say he'll body mans

idgaf who he was before that, he's a confusedfag on the microphone
also too much "Aww"

"Art" doesn't really exist outside of our heads anyway. Like, someone may have created it, but if it weren't for me interpreting it, it wouldn't even exist.

I guess you can enjoy snow as a reggae MC but we are all gonna laugh at you for enjoying an imitator

why is he an imitator? Because he's white? dude grew up in a Jamaican immigrant neighbourhood, Grew up with reggae, made reggae all his life. Bad example.

[knell]

what's with all the height talk pkay? is it some sort of weird chest puffing thing for you? you're talking all sorts of garbage in this thread.

if dmx were 5'6 he'd be shorter than me, and when i met him he was definitely taller, i'd put him at 6'0

Yeah, you'll be telling us Kode9 has no place in sound system culture next. White, Scottish bloke? Fuck does he know about reggae?

How dare Skream and The Bug build on dub culture with their alabaster skin and English accents!

tbh though snow actually gets a lot of respect in the hood in toronto, but i still the think the same thing.

i've had to have said this earlier in the thread, but here we go. drake is 100% phony. he grew up in the richest part of toronto his whole life (i knew someone who used to yacht with him as a kid too). dude probably never saw a strip club til he was 19, probably never saw a gun til he met weezy, and probably never beefed with anyone until this chris brown shit. fuck that guy

rappers that rap on about thug life 24/7 are completely shit 99% of the time anyway. Usually cos they have no education and only know about 8 different words since the thesaurus is the first book most these motherfuckers pick up.

I would rather listen to Blue Scholars, or better yet, Common Market, any day of the week over somebody like 50 Cent.
But whatever, this argument has devolved into pure stupidity anyway.



But hey that tune is shit cos that guy is white and Jewish and has a beard (hey he has quite a lot in common with you pkay!)



I guess what I am trying to say is that if you care this much about gangsta rap you need to get a fucking grip, since it's the very worst part of the genre. Even horrorcore rap is way better.

So? Shouldn't all demographics be represented in music? A great deal of people live the life that these artists rap about. Some intelligent, educated, blessed with an easy life rapper isn't going to speak for them.

what you really mean is you have no connection to gangsta rap so it doesn't appeal to you personally, it doesn't mean it's shit
