i think it just goes with type of music that's been made

funny thing jay-z's most mature sounding album was his first

the thing is with Outkast a lot of their music sounds silly right now, if you a grown ass man performing it

he talking about rock acts, yea those 80 rock bands were all trash anyway, so how the ufck you gonna perform some shyt like pour some sugar on me when you looking like terry funk yet BB King older than all them and he can still perform his music because it was never some silly sounding bulllshyt

but he was spot on about the flow patterns and sounds, and when old rappers try to emulate it it sounds corny

however I believe andre just aint shyt to say, and it's hard to come up with random raps just spitting about nothing but skills when your old

Gimme the deets...

I can't watch the video

he was sayin' that the older one (an mc or rapper) gets, the further they get away from bein' "hip" and how hip hop is always changin' with new "slang", "rhythm" and "patterns" and that "once you start intimatin'" as an older mc, that people take notice and it "becomes embrassin'". he feels like he wouldn't have much to offer after a certain point, he compares it to bein' a boxer who ages after a while

also, he mentions he's seen his heroes not be as "cool" and he goes on to say "it's not that their not as good as they were when they first started it's just the world progressed. the world actually took them in and learned everythin' their doin' and spit it back out in a whole new way" he goes on to say as long as it's in an mcs or rappers' heart to still rap, keep on keepin' (he name checks jay, eminem, kanye)

he says that he got into hip hop as youngster and wantin' to "fukk shyt up" and as a fan of "wantin' to see people fukk shyt" (in hip hop) he wants to see the youth do it because he says unless you (the audience) wanna hear him talk about "parentin', how it is with his 16 year old son and not wantin' prostate exams" he wonders what's he even talkin' bout


it's a very great listen and watch :mjcry:

Good f ing point dapped. I think in music everyone kind of reaches there high point of relevancy and it slowly fades out. Hell U2 gave an album away and millions deleted that shyt . I think hip-hop has a limit as far as when you could be out here talking bout poping pills and getting drunk but Hell Juicey J is doing just fine

For now, because he's already catering to audience who's never heard of him, they think he's new, but you not gonna be juicy j when he 50, but then again, he might be 50 cuz my cousin got some three six mafia shyt that came out in the 80's lol

look george clinton this nikka old as fukk still dress crazy and all that shyt, at the end of the day you do what you do
