Man Cracked used to be the ish durin thw down time at work but since the fuminists-ouuuh-mah-feelingsss-muh-equality took over it went down hill. To pc for my taste.

He'd have a point if he didn't ignore the much better music given airplay in years past. Just point out Back Dat Ass Up and call it a day

yep, totally dismiss the fact that songs like these were played regularly on mainstream radio and on tv like Rap City:

Inaccurate

There was more balance

Quoting you for truth. Most just don't get this point. For every Sir Mix Alot or Juvenile there was quality on the radio.

well radio as a whole is in an incredibly shytty state, it's damn near like one big monopoly. so of course nowadays there is far less variety on the radio, because there are scores upon scores of good hip hop out nowadays, but fact is radio wont play it.

yea, as soon as he said "1995 is as far back as my memory goes" is when i disregarded everything that was said

2000 is as far back as my memory goes

What the writer failed to convey in his off-base comparisons is that mix-a-lot was just one lane during his era. He wasn't the WHOLE FUKKING HIGHWAY!!! That is the major point these young dudes be missing. There is actually a lane for Future, but the lack of creativity and versatility of the genre is actually whats killing it! Hate all you want, truth is truth

These young cats deliberately miss the point so as to goal-shift to cover up their insecurities. Older rap has routinely proven to have staying power but let these newbies tell it: "you're unfairly picking on us! You were just as wack, if not wacker!"

This is hands down one of the best rap songs ive heard in the last few years



Sad that it didn't get mainstream recognition. Great message. Great beat. Amazing lyrics.

I heard this 2 days ago and literally



This is what gets recognition
