Okay - Imma get all my Atlanta chit out in one post.
*takes deep breath*
- Kilo Ali is the most entertaining rapper Atlanta ever produced
- I think it’s a stretch to call what Future does “music”
- ATL shoulda never let Out-Of-Town folk come in and define their scene;
that Bass, Tony Mercedes/Raheem The Dream/Kool Ace type rap is the real Georgia and ATL ain’t gonna be real to me until they do right by them and honor that
- Big Boi is just as weird as 3K is...Big Boi is just as great as 3K is
- Young Jeezy is the ATL version of Mack 10, and he ain’t even as good as Mack 10
- Ghetto Mafia should be a 4x platinum-level rap group
- Miracle’s first album is a triumph, and vastly underrated
- I am continually baffled as to how some people can be in a collective, and the better (IMO) talent gets overshadowed by the lesser. For example:
T.I. over Dro
Youngbloodz over P.A./Jim Crow
Slimm Cutta over Cool Breeze
Young Joc over Boyz ‘N Da Hood
- if everybody looks back, I think they will realize Ying Yang Twins was the most successful rap group of the 2000s...and I think that is good and bad at the same time

1.) AZ > Nas. AZ never fell off and his music is much more consistent. AZ depth lyrically is on another level. Gnause has fallen off as many times as LL or more. AZ is like a Nas who stayed true to the underground.
2.) Bay Area Rap > LA Rap. LA rap steals so much game from Bay Area rap. Eazy E pretty much made a career doing a Too $hort impression. Snoop made a career trying to sound like D Loc from 415 and even started calling Long Beach the LBC because RBL Posse called Frisco the SFC on "Bammer Weed". Hella Bay artists sampled certain records before Dre did. Spice 1 sampled the same part of Parliament "Mothership Connection" on "Young nikka" a year before Dr sampled it on "Let Me Ride". Underground Bay rap was harder and didn't pander to the masses the way LA rap did
3.) Lil B > Kendrick Lamar. Lil B was way more influential than K Dot. Based God gave birth to a new generation of rappers. Lil B never gets credit for how prolific he was, nor does he get credit for his versatility in creating great serious songs as well. K Dot was propped up by the mainstream music machine whereas Lil B was an underdog and a genius in self promotion and an expert troll without going to 69 levels.
4.) Classic late 80's Hip Hop is mostly just rappers rapping about rapping without a real message. Most Rakim, Big Daddy Kane and DOC is just rapping about ripping mics and stages. The only Rakim songs that had an actual message from back in the day were "Paid in Full" and "The Ghetto". Lyrical rap for the sake of being lyrical didn't last long for that reason and was overshadowed by the rise of Cali Gangsta shyt.

Now you looking for a fight
I came to post this, I really don't care to listen to him. If I'm going the 80s route I'd much rather listen to LL, Rakim, and Kane.KRS 1 one of the most overrated rappers ever
People only claim he a GOAT to look like some super hip hop head, they don’t even believe that shyt

The ATCQ hate has me like
Yeah....right.
"Elevator music"??
What's funny is I respect classic jazz, but I can't listen to it purposefully usually.....but add hip hop + jazz sound, which is the Tribe sound and I'm
Trap sound has warped what music is supposed to sound like..........

I don't like Juicy.
I've never listened to a Tupac album.
KRS One is not as good as he wants you to believe he is.
I was a huge fan of 50 Cent but I rarely find myself going back to his music unlike I do with so many other artist I was a fan of.
NORE is average as hell.
Lil Uzi Vert and Young Thug are very talented.
Eminem is overrated but SSLP is a classic album
Jay Electronica is the biggest disappointments hip-hop has ever seen.
Charles Hamilton is also a huge disappointment and should have been bigger than what he was.

no, but this thread is basically you just copying and pasting. No effort at all
Black thought doesnt really make entertaining music at all
goin thru some of his solo stuff recently and i gotta say... his music is really nothing but stream of concious lyrical ramblings.
its cool but after a while it doesnt impress you
Plus hes really not the best lyricist to make up for it, hes very elite tho but its not enough to make up for redundancy
