Musical Geniuses Of The Last Decade - your choices?

[wolf89]

This isnt the 1960s the world doesnt care about ur music anymore english ppl

Really I'm just starting to come to the conclusion that, aside from a few exceptions, people from the UK really need to just stfu about hip hop because they're almost always wrong.

Says the guy who thinks Lil B has any actual talent just because he's famous and releases lots of stuff that half the time sounds like it was made in 10 minutes

You're still reasonably right though about people from the UK and hip hop though

[garethom]

People and they motha fuckin opinions yo.

Think we need a vote on who is definitively right about music in the SNH. I vote for garethom.

[dickman69]

I hardly listen to him but yunx is a better dj than oneman

[Lye_Form]

wasnt really the point, but there were plenty of quality releases during that time span.

What releases?

Uh just off the top of the head...Donuts, Fishscale, Hell Hath No Fury, Below the Heavens, UGK, American Gangster is supposedly decent (havent heard tbh), basically anything Kanye released, Only Built 4 Cuban Linx 2.....

American gangster is a terrible album everything kanye has ever released is shite imo

Donuts was good tho tbf, for some reason i think of it as older than 06.

[Sexual_Chocolate]

^yunx is good for playing the same tune for 2 hours straight... thats about it.

oneman is just a niche dj.

[Riddles]

Theo Parrish too

[m8son666]

[murky21]

He's not very talented though. He just puts out endless rubbish whilst maintaining a personality. It's fun but it's not genius.

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[wolf89]

Oneman?

Really?

Fuck off. He isn't a musical genius. He isn't even the best dj. Come on. Seriously think about this. Playing a load of tunes to trendy nobs is hardly high art

but that selection doe.....

Isn't musical genius. It's not. I'm sorry. I am one to always defend the artistic value of djing but still simply having a good selection of other peoples music doesn't make you yourself a musical genius.

Lil B has plenty of actual talent. When he wants to go in, he goes IN. See: A Zilli, I Own Swag, and ObamaBasedGod.

[dickman69]

Yea kanyes terrible blah blah blah

[SCope13]

everything kanye has ever released is shite

.... again, proving my point that brits know absolutely nothing about hip hop.

Nah you're in charge of Crystal Maze

Top class comment from Scope as always.

Considered putting Wiley in, then figured most of his good stuff was 2000-2003, and then he's been chasing $$$ since then, so it was a no from me. Also, Aphex hasn't released anything in that time, if we're including people that didn't just stop becoming geniuses, you can include anyone in here.

loool no u yanks are wrong.

how does me not liking stupid vapid no content bullshit rap mean i know nothing about hip hop lol

pls look up what opinion means

[garethom]

Pretty much only liked College Dropout from Kanye. Nothing since then has grabbed my attention and I've gave it a lot of tries.

It's so true though. Two people just said that everything Kanye has written is shit ffs. Sure, he has some turds, but christ, if you really think everything the dude has written is shit you're either mental or you're being edgy for the sake of being edgy.

Name another UK DJ that has achieved more than him by just DJing. Ben UFO is the only one who comes close, Yunx also. Yunx is just a technical machine but his selection is pretty one dimensional, Ben UFO is probably technically better but selection nowadays isn't as diverse and good as Onemans (imo).

Lol @ playing to trendy people like the guys had a 2 year career.

Hes been grafting for years. Despite a handful of releases on 502 hes stuck at what he does.

In a field where you pretty much need to either run a label or produce to be as big as him you've gotta stand out above the rest.

Its easy to dumb down achievements when you don't agree though.
