Rap About Nothing: Hip Hop Chat Thread

[mikedalton]

LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOO bruh. I like euphoria better cause it had layers and layers. This one is basically saying you tried but couldn’t find nothing. I think euphoria hit harder. Drake need to drop though

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Damn. He curving this _ up dawg piece by piece.

Them OVO ghostwriters having rebellion on the master. Dre and Kanye let all their writers eat.

So Drake tryna pay people to find dirt on Dot like he tried with Pusha? He still don't get it.

 

[NickFolarin]

Father's Day is 6/16 too lol

 

[ahat]

You from Canada right bruh?

What they saying up there about the battle?

Been saying it for years about this character

 

[osh kosh bosh]

See that’s the thing. Black Americans have never looked to Africans for validation. Seems like Africans get more hung up on the “African” American term than we do and feel the need to create separation. It’s just a formal name on the census for most of us. Black is what we call ourselves culturally. I will agree that America is a bubble that doesn’t recognize the world outside of it which goes back to my point that Black Americans have never cared what Africans have thought of us. Hip Hop is less than 50 years old and recognized and imitated worldwide, us culture-less black folks clearly did something right.

I never addressed this but this is laughably wrong,

black americans have been appropriating african culture as an appeal to authentic blackness forever. Dr Umar calling people a "africans" isn't some new thing.

Theres nothing to psychoanalyze, the man said "ya boys told on you".

Hits even harder when Drake's been paranoid AF in his raps for years over potential backstabbers and basically confirming to him that his people secretly hate and are indeed conspiring against him with his enemies

Both tracks are as pointed as can be towards aiming directly at his every insecurity, it's not meant to be some crowd pleasing ****.

It's meant to be some deeply personal **** that makes his soul burn real slow

I listened to this last night and called this out to my friend too.

Peep the "I'm a maniac aiming at the enemy that lied" too. We really living in a simulation, word to the only drake fan I like

 

[wavycrocket]

He really pointing a finger in that man’s chest

 

[frshstunna]

Funny thing is Drake and em was asking for all this…”Kendrick taking too long !!” “Where’s the next diss?? Drake ready with a bomb”

 

[wavycrocket]

this ***** paid for the Pusha T bots that plagued twitter all last summer

Salamanders

 

[tr1ll]

He said the song is good because;
"This track actually puts fear in Drake personally"

personally I think it's just solid, and looks worse in comparison to the first.
Drakes hypothetical mindset doesn't make music sound better to me. but maybe im weird that way.

Oh its definitely not as much of a "banger", per se, as the last one but thats not the point of diss tracks.

 

[osh kosh bosh]

So you're short, wear a size 7 and drop and give me 50 was some dope lyricism to you

it's just a better song. This is cool, some clever lyrics but if making good rap songs was ONLY about how intricate your lyrics are.

Canibus would be the greatest rapper of all time.


and It hurts me to say that because im a long time Canibus stan.

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Personally I would rank them

Euphoria
Push Ups
6:16 In Compton
Taylor Made.

You from Canada, you didnt catch that Al Green sample crodie.

 

[DripNick]

Father's Day is 6/16 too lol

I'm far from the greatest Kendrick fan but this ***** pen really immaculate (II)

How are black Americans appropriating African culture.

You can't just make these blanket statements.

 

[Magic33]

Good summary

 

[WASHED KING]

Good summary

Nah you're short jokes are better

 

[servechilled81]

That's Taylor Swift's producer

Jack, Sounwave and another artist that writes for Taylor, Sam Dew were in a group together
Sam Dew was all over Mr. Morale

sure i agree...but to a point,

imo Canibus's 2nd round knockout is a better more lyrical diss song than the Ripper Strikes Back

but unfortunately for me, no one thinks Canibus won that battle,

Ripper Strikes Back, people like that more as a song. so being more intricate lyrically doesn't auto win you any battle, the quality of the song also matters.

 

[tr1ll]

Father's Day is 6/16 too lol

My coworker asked me if that was OJ's glove too!

 

[frshstunna]

Sometimes you just hate a mfer and it is what it is , that’s life and Kendrick on that type of time

 

[rolaholic]

Dude is as intentional as it gets with every little detail on some sociopathic ****

So many greats are overly obsessive like that.

Worst type of person to be having this sort of back and forth or beef with...they won't leave any stone unturned

If we talking bangers and song quality “Like That” at the top
