Album Discussion: Making Enemies - K-Rino (Stream Added)

[DonFrancisco]

This is one of his best efforts and it came 10 years too late. K-Rino would have benefited in the 90s and 2000s in being with a well known rap group. South Park Coalition is good and all but they lacked star power outside of K-Rino. Honestly he has great lyrics and can adequately flow but there will always be that incomplete factor to K-Rino and he was probably better off in some super rap group.

I would have liked to see him in an ABN (Trae and Z-Ro) type group with another rapper almost as good as him.

I guess it depends on what the objectives are, if it were to blow up in the mainstream then quite possibly yes, but I don't think that's his goals at all, he just wants to drop dope music for his fans, and for his fans to mention him as a great MC which they do, and to sustain off his music which he does, so I think it's perfectly fine from that perspective. I guess the incomplete factor is subjective, cause I personally can't define it, apart from him obviously blowing up like a mainstream artist and being pushed and marketed as such, cause skill wise and lyrically and music wise I personally feel like he can compete with and in most cases supersede anybody. It would have been interesting him being in a supergroup group I guess, but I like his solo shyt a lot so I'm happy with that. Dope E I thought was a really dope MC though, but it would have been interesting to hear him do a project with Z-Ro or something, they both could have ripped it and it may have been helpful in terms of exposure also.

corny fakkits really care about who's getting played in the club, the same clubs you never at cuz you're too busy trolling about k-rino on the coli on friday and saturday nights

Yeah. I asked why this was relevant and no one responded.

 

[The Ruler 09]

This is great to hear. Real recongnize real.

True, thankfully at least Chuck has a high level of intelligence, and does have the distinct advantage he can count and calculate percentages too

Chuck would certainly appreciate the skill there as a dope MC himself

Great point, then they want to talk about lyricism when their criteria is club play lol.

K-Rino has exceptional songwriting skills. He's 1 of the finest songwriters in Hip Hop. What would the definition of songwriting be to come to that conclusion? Aren't songs supposed to be able to touch the audience in the intended manner? Isn't that the goal? If so K-Rino is doing that superbly.

He can't write hooks or be a little melodic

Incorrect, he's written countless hooks and has countless songs that incorporate melody. He even has songs where he sings so... Lol...

 

[mobbinfms]

Melodic is just a code word for shytty sing/rapping

 

[Not The Ruler O9]

Ruler being a moron again

 

[Capo Dei Capi]

[jamaicaiwonder1993]

Hook doesn't mesh well with the beat, but the verses are pretty good and I like the concept. Also this doesn't do the original Big L flamboyant song justice

 

[The Ruler 09]

I honestly think that all jokes aside Krino isn't a wack rapper[[/B]/QUOTE]

 

[jamaicaiwonder1993]

Naw I've always felt this way, but you're blind stanning makes it hard for others to take him seriously.

 

[T.he I.nformant]

The stannery in here is exceptional
