Rap About Nothing: Hip Hop Chat Thread

[Maximus Meridius]

Didn’t know he was like this.

Seem like that station/seat got super powers for rappers

I think Cube had higher highs, but Scarface had longevity and hadn't done the corny **** Cube done. Plus, Scarface aged better. His flow is pretty much timeless. When Cube started hoping on trends and copying it was going downhill.

Cube should be top 5, and be known as the King of the West.

From Straight Outta Compton to Lethal Injection that run is pretty umatched.

I respect Cube’s run, he carried the West coast for a period of time and AmeriKKKa’s Most Wanted is legendary. But Scarface is different. He’s a storyteller and it was pure rawness. Mr. Scarface Is Back to The Fix proved his position in hip hop.

Cube probably hit a higher peak but Scarface having great albums/classics from 97-02 gives him a slight edge to me. Matter fact Made and Deeply Rooted are both great albums.

Leaving 83 million to my kids who are already wealthy as hell in their own right is a dope flex. Quincy forever that dude. RIP to a legend. I'm glad I was around long enough to really see home of his legacy at okay via Fresh Prince, MJ. Etc.

There may never be another dude as influential in music (black or white).

I think you're sleeping on Cube's storytelling

Cube told stories of a place. Facemob told stories of life, pain, emotions.

Prime Cube was a force. Death Certificate is still one of my favorite albums.

I know the tape dropped during lockdown but Dave East fumbled this feature. Same with the Handsome remix with Jeezy
