Hairlines pushed back, no breath control, pot bellys, dentures…sad sight. You can’t do anything about your hair but those other things are choices. These dudes were the coolest dudes on the block, clowning older legends. Now Hov and Nas look and sound younger.
I hated Dipset back then. The arrogance, the ignorance…granted I was on that conscious rap tip back then and liked some Cam songs but overall wasn’t feeling the energy they put out. It felt like I was being hustled by conmen. And on that stage there they are in full display as the cons they always were. Lox are professional MCs. I thought Dipset would win off hits alone but they couldn’t even halfway rock the crowd. They didn’t care about the craft. They wanted to be cool old struggling looking dudes. It didn’t work.
