Who had bars in the 80s and 90s ? Im not just talking about stuff that rhymes and sounds good together. Who in the 90s and 80s said something that made you go damn. Other than the Lox and big and jigga.

Ok now name 5 more since that generation was so gifted in the bars department according to yall on here.

 

[WallStreet]

how old are u ?

Doesnt matter name more than 5 rappers that have BARS from that era other than lox big jay and prodigy. Should be tons since that era was so advanced...

 

[WallStreet]

But like I said maybe im tripping. Im just trying to be as objective as I can. But I could very well be mistaken, I dont claim to know it all. Just an opinion.

Kinda agree with whoever said the new generation raps better. When you listen to Rakim it might be technical but I have yet to hear bars from the 80s or early early 90s that made me go oh shyt.. other than biggie and the likes. Not to mention these beats nowadays are 10 times more intricate than boom bap. I feel like its easier to ride a boom bap than to spit on a metro booming but might just be me.

technically in terms of music theory beats were way more complex back then
