Rap About Nothing: Hip Hop Chat Thread

Maybe in washed and forgetful but can someone tell me the purpose of dropping letters out of words but still pronouncing them the same way?

Is it suppose to be cool? Like I remember the 90s putting a z where the s would go like badass or spelling dog dawg or dropping the g in slang

Never understood a name like The Wknd. Like why drop the e's :lol:

Excuse my washedness.


On another topic as I read another post of more Nas, has Nas and The Roots never collaborated on a song (nor live performances)? :nerd:

Pretty sure there's a band called "the weekend" so he stylized it to "wknd" to avoid a lawsuit or whatever

Edit: he spells it weeknd :lol: shows how much I take in his music

Ok that makes sense.

A quick google shows they're from Canada too.

Guess he really wanted that name though.

I'm pretty sure it's just for stylistic flare. "The Wizrd" looks more interesting when you put it in creative font than "The Wizard" does.
 
Just got put on to this....this ard :pimp: :nerd:. Got that Rhoddy Rhich vibe a lor bit. But shorty story telling and talking bout a lil something

 
I’m mad I didn’t see X in his prime. I had a few chances to see him over the last few years but I wasn’t trying to see him like that. Some shows he skipped or some shows he was just talking the whole time

Room full of dudes, asking another dude “why he lied” looking like a scorned woman... ish suspect
