Kinda insulting to not have these vet rappers actually spit. They have been reduced to background dancers.
great post. that's why you can't get too nostalgic about early hip hop records. Perspective is important.
Good point. Though I think it's ironic that French/wack bling rappers will claim "hip hop was always about stuntin, riches and bytches. Look at Sugarhill Gang" when it comes to defending their
music but wont acknowledge said pioneer's existence otherwise.Modern Hip hop has convenient amnesia.
Grandmaster Caz has mad songs that sound ill, not to mention Moe Dee or Melle Mel. More timeless than most shyt...
dudes in here talkin bullchit. you lil funny dudes like to pull chit out each other's asses and trade daps.
grandmaster caz, melle mel & kool moe dee sounded way more advanced in the late '70s/early '80s than anything on the radio right now and just about every current rapper that yall suck off on this site.

Nope, the cut off is this week or something like that. It will be K. Dot versus Drake, Cole, Sean and........who knows.Why do I get that feeling in my gut that when this album is dropped
Kendrick can say good bye to that potential grammy for TPAB ?

Eric Nally, who sings the hook in Macklemore's "Downtown," was called out for racism three years ago
Macklemore & Ryan Lewis' latest single "Downtown" dropped today, and it's already making waves on radio and YouTube. The song features Foxy Shazam's Eric Nally singing the much-talked-about hook, but what many may not know is that Eric Nally and Foxy Shazam came under fire for their single "I Like It" three years ago. In the song, Eric Nally sings "That's the biggest black ass that I've ever seen, and I like it." Stereogum's Tom Breihan tweeted Chicago Reader's article about Foxy Shazam's racist song earlier today, calling Eric Nally "the budget Darkness guy from the Macklemore video."

This is racist?Dude singing about a big ass that he likes, which happens to be a black one?
Hahaha.
Person 1 - "Hey, homeless man, here, have my pizza, i was going to bring it home to my family but it's okay, enjoy"
Homeless Man - "Thank you sir! How kind of you."
Onlooker : "(((Sucks teeth))) Why he ain't give him a soda? Why no dessert? Why he ain't bring him home with him to have dinner with his family? Oh, so he can't move in for a few months? That's fukked up"
You nigs are crazy, lol. Who else even gave these dudes a look as backup dancers in a video? Salute that whiteboy for paying homage, which he absolutely didn't have to do.
Cause a homeless bum is the same as a pioneer of Hip Hop.
Lol at people not recognising Mel or Moe's voices lol...
True, nice education ya got there sir, comprehension skills on fleek
