Rap About Nothing: Hip Hop Chat Thread

[rbk93]

You said commercial success… I showed you that face had 3 platinum albums, 4 golds, 3 golds with geto boys….

What more proof do you need? Flip was never revered nationwide like Scarface.

Flip ain’t even bigger than mike jones, Chamillionaire or Paul wall. Not z-ro either.

I’d argue Flip is bigger than Mike Jones. Not the other 3.

No one is arguing that chap. He said flip is more successful than Scarface though. I proved him wrong.

None of us are discrediting flip. I just said Scarface has had more successful overall. It’s a reason Rap A Lot records was a top 3 label back in the 80s and 90s. It was because of Scarface

Then he says he never listened to Scarface. He’s 30 years old, I’m 34, I gave him a rundown of Face’s career. The end.

Not too long ago. I actually started listening to his new stuff when I met him back in December.

This is the mixtape/album I went to after I met him. Pretty solid.

 

[rbk93]

Wow

I don’t really listen to Houston hip hop as finessence stated nor have I really delve deep into any catalogs outside of ZRo and Trae.

If it’s not a song from that run Houston had, good chance I don’t know it.

106 and Park raised me lol.

 

[rbk93]

I grew up on NYC hip hop, hence why a lot of their artists being in my top 10 all time and I still enjoying the sound to this day.

I didn’t really get into ZRo/Trae until Let the Truth Be Told and Restless, which was around 2005/2006.

You wasting your time bruh. I could see if he was 18,19, 20 or any age under 23.
He’s 30 years old.

I’m Nigerian if that makes a difference. The family gatherings I went to, I’m positive hip hop wasn’t being played.

My aunt recorded this video and had us all glued to the tv trying to prove to us it was really Pac in the video, and that he couldn’t really be dead.

Recorded on a VHS tape. Wild times.

That actually explains a lot …Got a homie from West Africa and they definitely ain’t playing Scarface at them gatherings

 

[wavycrocket]

Kendrick & Future delivered man. Ppl will see

 

[servechilled81]

nah, saying i wasn't around it, i didn't grow up with after making some sort of declaration of fact doesn't work
if you knew you didn't know about one of the things you were comparing, how could you even begin to weigh the two

 

[wavycrocket]

One of the better organic rises we’ve seen in a minute. Hard work plus talent. True grind

He got a solid catalog. Couple classics.

Commercial success, Flip might be more bigger than Scarface.

A few more actually too.
