[dohc4.6sc]

i thought you hated new "rap"?

[quickdodge®]

I do. But not everyone hates it. Just because I don't like it doesn't mean I can't put it out there for others to enjoy if they like. I post albums for download from artists that I would never be caught listening to. But if people want it and I can provide it, then why not? Later, QD.

[Vteckidd]

Dope song, high five

Do YOU even know what you type? Later, QD.

[alpine_aw11]

As much as I generally hate mainstream rap, I've always liked TI. I prefer older stuff, but it's still pretty good.

[JDMJAYDC2]

[Maniacc]

I personally think the song sucks.

[BLk92DA]

T.I snitched? who he snitched on...?

[twinj]

Nobody knows, I am tired of hearing people kick that fu.ck sh!t. Personally who gives a fu.ck (No offense to anyone in this thread), that man has a wife & kids that he has too look after.

[leobond001]

I personally think the song sucks.

agreed. still dont understand why ppl like this clown. he really hasn't battled anyone good and came out on top. he was never a dope boy. selling nick bags doesn't make you a dope bot.

and he was a damn barber for a couple of years before he started rapping. his life is a fictional movie like most rappers, so how can you respect that and support that. yes listening is supporting.

[quickdodge®]

So what you're saying is that we need to respect the rappers that are really into the drug game? That the actual gangbanging rappers are the ones we need to respect?

If so, you're full of shiit. Later, QD.

Agreed 100 percent. Half the rappers out nowadays rap about gangbangin n shiit but aernt really bout shiit. They may have USED to sell drugs and what not but key word there is USED to. Its whatever sells man

oh no not at all. i'm saying i don't see why ppl respect or even listen to this fictional garbage and go around saying he's the realist or he's the best.

he doesn't influence anything good on ppl. and kids want to live his fictonal life he never lived. so point blank he sucks. i liked one song of his back when he first came out, after that, i guess his mask went on and he watched to much scarface.

[ed_gm90]

i think rap sucks period...hip-hop ftw.

yes, they're is a difference.

[leobond001]

^^^^ i feel you i been listening alot more to alternative and hord core rock lately. some 80's rock ballads to.

rap now is like it was back in 02-03. down the f'ing hill

[quickdodge®]

rap now is like it was back in 02-03. down the f'ing hill

Shiiiit. Rap has been on a steady downhill course since the mid 90s. Later, QD.

I miss run dmc and fat boys...Who heard the tape called power rap? Had super bowl shuffle on it

[leobond001]

Shiiiit. Rap has been on a steady downhill course since the mid 90s. Later, QD.

i guess, thats when labels saw it was a billino doller industry. and started giving niggaz money.

word. we need some more good hip-hop artist like jedi mind tricks, illmaculate, cypress hill, termanology...etc. but no we get bullsh!t like soulja boy and lil wayne.

[bowdown201]

i would still say T.I is a better artist then Lil wayne. dont get me wrong lil waynes got some hot shiit out but hes got too much and alot of it is the same shiit hes rappin about

[The_ CaneCorso]

word. we need some more good hip-hop artist like jedi mind tricks, illmaculate, cypress hill, termanology...etc. but no we get bullsh!t like soulja boy and lil wayne.

LOL. Im so sick of hearing igonorant rap wih no skills and people humming its crap.

[twinj]

Alot very opinionated response's which are very typical. Here's a suggestion since rap today is so Fu.ck up. Post some of the "real hip hop artist" then.

If this man sold dope or not who are you to judge him. Some of ya'll really are a piece of work,lol. I guess fayetteville/Gwinnett/covington those are the real hoods:lmfao: Where the most of the gangsta's at pushin that weight,lmao.

This dude is talking about his OWN PERSONAL STRUGGLE(rather you call it struggle or not, its his story). Just like everyone else did back in the day. ie: NWA- was more in the direction of fuc.k the cops. Why because back in that time of day. Cops in LA was very shady.

Leobond001 how do you know he was a barber? If it was something you heard then cool no response needed. So what Tyler Perry use to be homeless

Diabolic-Post some Real hip hop artist then

Personally I don't give fu.ck if T.I. was selling Weed or bringing in Dope by the truck load. To everyone that says "sales isnt ****" then go buy his album ($12.99) and STFU. For those that said Soulja Boy ain't ****, but the Kids like him thats why he is doing so good. For every artist there is a different audience

Then again if you don't even listen too the current "RAP" music. Your opinion don't mean **** meaning if you listen to Alternative/rock/80's, mofo anything other than rap.

Everytime someone post some music. You always got a group of people who opinion aint worth sh!t cause they don't even listen to rap.

[ed_gm90]

i did.

[twinj]

It was a empty thread when I seen it. Let me check again.

EDIT: Yep empty

[quickdodge®]

Your opinion lacks one thing. Most of the folks that are looking down on today's rap have nothing to compare it to. Sure they may have heard (some of) the old school joints, but they never experienced it first hand. The reason why I feel like I have a valid say in this is because I HAVE been at the point of rap's beginning. I bought Sugar Hill Gang's very first album. When it first came out. I bought all of Run DMC's shiit the days they came out. I was listening to Kurtis Blow, Busy Bee and The Treacherous Three when it was brand new funk. I've listened to rap change over all the years. Listening to rap when it first came on the scene is an experience none of you guys will EVER understand. It was new. It was different. It was a feeling that no one had felt before. It was awesome. I loved it from the first time I heard it. You can't take a younger cat and throw in a Grandmaster Flash album now-a-days and expect him to have that same feeling. You know what I'm saying?

You are right about that. But if you'll notice, most of the stuff I post (downloads and videos) are stuff that cater to listeners of today's rap. There's quite a few WC albums I can post up but I don't. I put it out there, even if I can't stand it, because I have something that someone else may like and if I do, I'll give it to that person.

Later, QD.

Oh yea...I agree with you, and I see where you are coming from. As far as this thread goes your opinion is about the only one I can really respect. You actually were there @ the begining till today.

I get sick of these dudes that ain't never been through shi!t. Come in here and want to spewl out some Bullsh!t like they know what rap is, or act like they sold dope on the same block T.I. did, and actually been in the hood. When they wasn't even born/thought about when that sh!t took place. I am not by far not an O.G., or some veterant (that can spit out fact's and dates) in the game. My whole rant was toward Diabolic, leobond001, CaneCorso, and Seun.

Yea and I appreciate that. Wont to many more people do that. *cough cough* like myself,lol.

SIDENOTE: Its funny... Cause the things I listen to today my kids aren't going to like. Viceversa I probably wont like there stuff either. Generation difference thats it. I would be wrong if I started going in some of these rock/alternative/Techno threads, and started fvcking them up. I wont cause I respect what they doing.

[quickdodge®]

True for the first part of your response.

For this part, very true. Generation gaps are a funny thing when it comes to music. Parents have never liked the music from their offspring's time. And vice versa. Later, QD.

and you know i'm not from or from the hood because? and you know or don't know my connections in the music industry because? hell, you don't even know me. so how can you say i'm not from the hood? i don't profess or brag about it cuz it's nothing to brag about. i never sold dope or was a gangsta, but i grew up around it. do you remember boat rock projects before they tore it down? probaly not. so please don't come with these a garbage ass statments.

oh and yes i know ppl in the industry. higher ups, exc, because i'm in the damn industry. i lay low for a reason. i've talked to and been arojund all of these ppl before, so when i say niggaz are lying about there past to sell records, niggaz are lying about ther past to sell records

do you remember boat rock projects before they tore it down?

You're not talking about over in SW Atl, as in off of FIB and Boat Rock Rd are you? Later, QD.

[leobond001]

^^^^^ yeah.

[quickdodge®]

They called that the projects? Later, QD.

[leobond001]

yeah. when i was 12 they did. before i moved to fayetteville.

[quickdodge®]

Damn. I guess so. It is Atlanta. In Cali, Boat Rock would barely be called a hood. That's how I used to refer to BR as. The hood. I look at projects and I see Carver, Techwood, Thomasville, Capital and those spots. Not out in the "boonies" of Atlanta. Lolol. Later, QD.

Lol, dude get real. Boat Rock...so you are a real gangsta you seen dope actually get sold, huh? Boat Rock isn't the projects, you were misinformed.
2nd I never said anything about you being from the projects. My whole thing was how are you going to justify/judge that man. You wasn't his right hand man, and you don't know him personally. so don't get on here and spewl out your incorrect information.

Lol at you knowing someone. Let me guess you know someone who know someone who know his cousin or something. You are a producer right? PM me a hit record, otherwise STFU

I am not going to argue with you.

[twinj]

me?
Yep.....Original quote fixed.

naw i don't know someone that know someone that know someone. i know direct ppl. and i'm not from boat rock. i am from s.w. atl though. i hung there when i was young and stupid. and it was considered the projects. so i hope your old enough to remember 95-97. and i'm not cool cuz i seen dope being sold. great generalization. but ppl that are into that kind of stuff don't brag about it on records.

and if you really want to hear some stuff, go to sole munkie on cone street and pick up the wade b. album. other than that. you need to lime wire some j-hop artist.

have a nice ****ing day.:D :D :D :D :D :D

[leobond001]

but back to the post. T.i, not really feeling his music sense after i'm serious.

I have to disagree with that notion. I have albums of majority of the above artist, but I like T.I.'s music. Most people don't give new age the credit it deserves. We all have opinions obviously, but you can't keep comparing 80's and early 90's to now. It evolves, thats why it sells.

Now if you could put TI against NAS, in a battle, NAS would slaughter him. With that said, battle rapping these days is not what it was back then. Now you have guys REALLY angry at each other and take shots on their albums and videos. TI is mastering his time in the game. He rips 90% of what is out CURRENTLY.

BTW, there is a difference in the Hip Hop genres.

i'm not talkin about battle rapping, i'm talkin about the lyrical aspect of rap. and u say 80's but some of these cats was puttin out **** for the longest. and nas would slaughter him in a anything period not just battles.

Oh ok, understood. NAS would slaughter him, lol. With that said though, TI does destroy the "grouping" that he is in. I dont think people try to compare the TI/Jeezy/Luda types to the Nas/Taleb/Mos Def types, at least I don't. They are too far apart in content.
