Rap About Nothing: Hip Hop Chat Thread

[SpittaJetLife]

Phresher on Love and Hip Hop, I remember a few people on NT hyping him up and then never heard anything from him but they Em song

Yikes. This song was fire though

Who said “hey let’s contact Phresher”?

 

[SpittaJetLife]

Curren$y is a legend

 

[Mark Antony]

Master of the viral moment. Knew exactly what he was doing, word to Elon.

 

[RIP sleazyy]

Nelly made trip drill

yall ****** ain’t ****

Forgot how terrible Phreasher was. He’s basically Casanova without the focus and drive.

 

[D StaXX]

Game being a clown and trying to capitalize off Nip rubbed me the wrong way. I’m just now getting around to listening just cause of that.
Album is fire tho. He’s still a clown.

Is Fat Joe a legend? Big L? Busta Rhymes?
I think these regional legends are too borderline, and we'd have hundreds at that point. The real hip-hop legend list is reserved for guys like Dre, Snoop, Jay-Z, Nas, Pac, Big, Drake, LL. Basically undeniable worldwide impact on the genre.

With that said, death during prime seems to automatically cement legend status. XXX is treated like Pac to kids under 21

drake isn't and will never be a legend

 

[RUSSIAN CREAM]

 

[6pac]

I can't believe it's this easy for Ray J to keep doing "this" and it still goes viral

 

[MajinZuub]

drake isn't and will never be a legend

Like him or not, he will be. Dude has been a huge name in the game for a long time. Not a Drake guy really but I can acknowledge that.

I would consider all those names in that category. In the end, it's subjective whatever criteria people use to judge it. I get keeping the best of the best as "legends" but some dudes outside that realm have put out classic songs/albums that get played to this day and for that I keep them in that category.
Big L wasn't around for long but a notable part of hip-hop history. Just like Pun.
Busta thought so outside the box and was the first rapper I remember doing videos that were super out there and he definitely had influence in that area. Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Can See might be one of my top 10/15 favorite rap songs ever.
Joe is still putting out chart topping music over 2 decades in the game.

 

[Hahahaha]

SMH, song was so hard. Then they used some wack song with Jaheim instead

 

[MajinZuub]

 

[Grine]

Y’all calling Drake a legend now?

Prodigy, Lyricist and Legends - Oh My...

NT we got to do better - y’all giving titles out too freely..

 

[Belgium]

I don't know. Impact, influence and Nelly got some timeless records. _'s call Lil B a legend so I don't know what standards folks got to qualify somebody nowadays.

Nelly was huge over here when I was younger. I’m talking as dominant as prime 50 Cent on tv and radio.

 

[cragmatic]

Yeah, when you’re talking legends and you list Pac, Big, and then Drake... one of these things is not like the other

 

[$tacy]

In a way u got to call him one. He didn’t bring anything original or change the game in any way but the ***** been at the top of the pyramid for a decade. Numbers alone I can’t argue with anyone who calls him that. His karaoke music will live for a long time too.

Busta was “regional”?

 

[Hahahaha]

Envy was saying he heard Jay was on or working on a verse for Fat Joe's Projects. I would have liked that feature, I can hear Jay on that song.
