Based on Lord Jamar's reverence for his elders/peers I wonder what he would say about Chuck's comments there. Interesting.
He dare wouldn't hate on Chuck D. He is Hip Hop's best father figure we have.

I read thru a good portion of this thread and still don't know who lord Jamar is? Is this nikka down with lord Tariq and Peter gunz was he the dj or some shyt? Was he the dj in Brand Nubian I know Sadat x and pumba.

Exactly...Im 22 and I found out about Brand Nubian from watching Rap City so age is no excuse..the first vid I saw was "Don't Let It Get To Your Head"and I did the knowledge from there...now that I think about it The Box, Video Music Box and Rap City is responsible for me being hip to a lot of stuff and having such a diverse taste in music todayI'm 23 and know who Brand Nubian is. The ignorance and lack of respect from people my age and younger is sickening.
Rap is the only genre of music that has younger fans with the mentality to shyt on the music that came before it.
No you didn't, I asked for some rules and regulations that you didn't just make up out of fukking nowhere, it's why you got so mad at me in the first place for asking a simple question, because you know you were going to sound/look stupid.
As I read through these rules I have to ask my self, who sanctioned any of this besides some nikka on a message board who obviously takes his "staff" badge way too seriously?
"Rule #1. White rapers do as told"
And this is the staff around here?
And even as a confirmed cocksucker Mister Cee is more hip hop than you, as is biggie who is the GOAT (gayest rapper of all time).
Chuck D > you and Lord Jamal
The foundation, the elements
Being well versed in anything you're involved in is preferred but you don't have to pass a fukking exam for this shyt. I could top rock before I could read nikka. This is INNATE.
*LISTENS TO RAPPERS DELIGHT*
Every last one of thosebiting, sell out nikkas have done more for hip hop than be 1 of the umpteen moderators on a message board.
Let's make this easier for you, since this was the supposed "rule" in question. What rule, regulation or even a comment from any noteworthy authority states that there is a limit to what subjects an artist can address in their music?
You missed the whole point. It ain't about whether you like Brand Nubian or not. It's about showing pioneers the respect they deserve. Cats are coming in here completely ignorant to who Bran Nubian are and shytting on them. You don't have to like Brand Nubian, but any serious fan of this shyt, who hasn't peeped their shyt, should be interested in seeing what all the fuss is about. But idiots nowadays would rather troll.Aiight, now this thread is getting ridiculousOld heads in here calling all posters who don't fukk with Brand Nubian, or other afrocentric groups that were most likely out well before a lot of posters time cacs and shyt, talking about bans
If people seriously start banning cats for their opinions or taste in music, this forum would fall off real quick. I, myself, have never listened to Brand Nubian due to the fact that I was a young child when they were out. I probably wouldn't care to now either. I know some people are trolling and saying disrespectful shyt, but let's not make generalizing statements bout folks simply because they don't listen to shyt that doesn't appeal to em. There isn't some holy prerequisite list of things one should have listened to so they can be a hip hop fan...what, do you want cats to fake the funk and act like they like shyt that was out when they were toddlers or some shyt?
Stop it brehs. You're being sanctimonious and pretentious as shyt.
That trolling is coming from ignorance though. Nothing wrong with trying to put people on to quality music.^^ Thiss
nikkas really getting their shyt in a bunch over opinions by trolls... on the iNTERNET smh..
You stay missing the point. And the animosity in your post makes me think @FreshAIG struck a nerve.For real...you got these back packin ass nikkas talking bout how posters would get beat up and shyt. fukk outta here....yall prolly the ones being nerds on your comp scared to go outside cuz you get smacked around by cats who love Chief Keef, so yall get on here on some high horse shyt posting with passive aggressive rage
Ol "anyone who doesn't listen to late 80s/early 90s hip hop are losers!" ass nikkas...bet yall sexually frustrated too and haven't even smelled p*ssy
Why would his opinion stop mattering?I loved the first Brand Nubian album when I was younger, but that doesn't mean Lord Jamar's opinion today matters. He's been talking this kind of shyt for years and Hip-Hop stopped listening a while back.
His response started out ok. But then he just went of the rails.Necro's an idiot![]()
It isnt the nikka job to educate the masses on the do's and donts of hip hop culture..if you half the the hip hop head you pretend to be you should know its rules to this shyt...one those rules is if you invite another nikka to your dikk you be prepared to see that nikka eventuallyshiit you respect hip hop dudes sure didnt talk about him till this vlad thing came up. where was lord jamar threads to educate the people on him and brand nubian before he decided to voice his opinions on Vladtv

Nah dumb nikka you find it, there is rules to this shyt, its ALOT of past rappers that dont get mentioned on here, does that mean we cant agree with what they say when asked a question or respect their contributions to the culture cause they dont have some thread on a message board? stupid ass nikka..show me then public enemy appreciation threads or boot camp threads? you cant nikka but does that make their status in the history of hip hop mean less cause nobody checking for them now? miss me with that condescending bullshyt bytch nikkaokay, answer me this......where are the brand nubian or rap rules for the culture threads on this site
since yall love to bring this culture up where them threads on here discussing it?
since this love for brand nubian is so widespread on here, find me their appreciation threads. i mean everything else in music gets them, where is brand nubian threads at?
If you knew this culture.
You would know.
It has always been obvious you were learning and did not have all the cultural knowledge.
Case in point,...
When eminem was helped by ju.
Do you think eminem directed ju?
Or just was a mercenary, for the team, emcee-wise?
Next...
Hiphop is the culture of the impoverished.
In that poverty occurs sexual crimes to bboys/bgirls in any stage,..
Especially, the child rearing stage.
So, gay culture that was a huge byproduct and sexual criminal deviance were pushed further in the social stages of our country.
In the world, it is a bigger more grave issue.
On top of the religions that this culture draws from.
Distinctly outlines homosexuality as a complete no-no.
You missed the conversion of old school to newschool, and the development of culture in hip hop.
Plus, you never mechanically experienced this culture consistently enough.
Nor, did you chose the right examples of rappers to illustrate this in your formative years, as well.
Evidenced by you being a Pac stan.
In the emotional poss of Pac, you just grafted over.
As bboys were mindful of your loss.
Just like we were mindful of the loss of cowboy to Scot larock, and even trouble.
Yet, in your gateway, you failed to embrace the culture.
As the mantra of your favorite rapper faking jax.
Took a negative connotation culturally.
After Pac's death and him as your gateway.
You never did the knowledge.
Which is your fault.
So, you never went to study, and build culturally what you were missing.
So, you missed old school to new school conversion.
Plus, the significance of learning what a scourge sugarhill and the sugarhill gang was.
Which dulled the impact of two of the greatest emcees in the history of this culture.
Who virtually reared all the emcees of the old school way of thought in any venue.
Yet, since you never went back to do the knowledge...
You lacked that knowledge.
Plus, you championed a rapper completely against the culture.
So, you spiraled out of control.
To where we are at now.
Where you do not know the culture, and are just a rap fan.
To be a bboy,..
You have to learn the history/norms/mores and then adhere and apply them.
I am shining proof culturally of committing.
If you did the same you would have similar results.
All the top posters in his community.
Aig
Walt
Mel
They have transcended every era because they are bboys.
Plus been recognized in their endeavors because they are culturally sound.
mel is white as fukk and because of hiphop.
Was able to go to another region and flourish, because he had the culture and knowledge of self.
On a level most white cats do not committ to.
shyt most nikka, do not commit to it.
When, this culture was reared by black people.
distinctly, from our pocket of social history.
If Mel a white cat can embrace and flourish.
If eminem a white cat can embrace and flourish, what is your issue.
When, you committ...
The culture and everything else will fall into place.
