"I didnt grow up on Biggie. I grew up on Spice 1." - Rich Homie Quan

[AldavisAlbundyAllah!]

lol what?



you're a member of this board and this is your life?






spooky times bruh

WEST WEST YALL.

I didn't find the music at 16. I heard it as a child dikkhead. I remember watching it on the BET/MTV/The Box, listening to it on the radio and hearing my older brothers and cousins play it. Sounds like you grew up in a house full of suckas.

Cuz listening to BIG in cali makes you not a sucka



Get over it yall.

When BIG got kilt in cali majority rejoiced . Stannery at its fullest.

Sorry.

 

[raw613]

shyt like this is honestly fine...but why agree to do it?

Why not bother memorizing the lyrics if the check was fat enough?


Stupid nikkas man

that's my thing like I am a fan of both Spice and Biggie, but if you are not a fan of Biggie like that why perform his song

 

[Still Benefited]

Now yall know how we felt when they let that coward and fraud Nas perform Keep Ya Head Up.

I dont think I know single Biggie verse either,if you not a fan you not gon know the words

Guess those verses aint as classic as yall thought

 

[edzyy]

These sorts of events are planned months in advance.

He had more than ample time to memorize those lyrics.

Then again he is a product of the Atlanta school system..can't expect much.

Most people in the South only heard Biggie songs that were on the radio more so than listening to Biggie's completes albums.

Pac, Cash Money, No Limit, Triple 6 Mafia, Outkast were more instrumental to the avg Souther Cats childhood in 96-98.

If it wasn't for my older sister I wouldn't have been as hip to Nas, Fugees, Big, etc as I was.

I grew up in Philly breh.....I was a 2pac stan growing up and he's a West Coast artist. I remember a couple of the old Cash Money joints. They played that up north. That Get Your Roll On song. Ha. I Need a Hot Girl. I remember those. Seeing the videos as a lil nikka.

I remember finding my brother's tape he recorded from MTV and it had "Never Seen a Man Cry" and "Mind Playing Tricks on Me"

So if I can hear all those songs from other places, then what's the excuse for people from other places not hearing our shyt? Especially something that was blasted over MTV/VH1/BET? He heard that song probably a thousand times before. He was just lazy and didn't practice. Now he acting like he didn't grow up on it

You are mentioning Main Stream songs though. In the South we were listening to these dudes Underground tapes because these dudes were actually traveling selling them out the back of their trunk or to mom and pop shops. NYC Rap was just culturally different at the time. To be real Dipset might have been the first NYC act that Southern Cats really rocked with. Dudes didnt even mess with Jay that hard outside of cats who loved music over all.

West Coast and Southern Rap are similar culturally and these artist were being black balled in NYC so naturally they did work in those regions and created huge fan bases.

In the 90s I didnt hear anything Bad Boy unless it was on TV or the Radio.

 

[MalikX]

I heard "If I Ruled the World" played so many damn times in the summer, I could do that song backwards. But but we aint grow up on 90s music

I feel you but, Get Money was a mainstream song the same way the songs I named were mainstream songs.

The only you didn't see that music video was if you intentionally ignored television.

nah I`m not excusing Quan, everyone knows Get Money, I`m more so speaking from a general standpoint that folks weren't messing with Bad Boy OD heavy outside of commercial songs at the most.

Get money probably really has no significance in Quans life and could just be a song that played on his way to school or something, there are tons of songs like that that are popular that I know the melody for and hook and a few bars but not the whole song.

What Quan did was inexcusable as he should at least memorized the verse, but it simply shows and confirms NYC rap aint that big of a deal, and Quan could probably recite more Playa Fly or Pastor Troy songs than he could a Biggie song.

I get it....to us Biggie was king and to yall Outkast or Geto Boys might've been king.

He just corny to me acting like he ain't grow up on the song. Acting like he was born in 1999 instead of 1989. Instead of just admitting he aint take time to learn the lyrics. Would've took an hour.

 

[gluvnast]

Didn't LUPE say the same EXACT thing that he grew up on Spice-1 when they attacked him for not ever listening to ATCQ???

 

[gluvnast]

YUP... he did!!! Maybe we should give RHQ a pass considering almost parallels with Lupe Fiasco and for the same reasons. (or maybe not)

Should Lupe Fiasco apologise for murdering Midnight Marauders?

Nursing some seriously injured pride, Lupe tapped out a heated response: "I DID NOT GROW UP ON ATCQ!!! **THE LITTLE GHETTO KID FROM THE MEAN STREETS OF THE WESTSIDE OF CHICAGO GREW UP ON SPICE 1, 8-BALL & MJG, NWA AND SNOOP DOGG...**I WASNT A BACKPACKER RAP ENTHUSIAST!!!...I NEVER CLAIMED TO BE...I GREW UP ON GANGSTA RAP!!!**HAVE I LISTENED TO MM IN ITS ENTIRETY?...NO!!!...(Sorry Quest)...**GET OFF YOUR HIGH HORSES AND YOUR SACRED COWS...SOME OF YA'LL MAKE ME SICK..."

People it doesn't matter what he grew up on or where he's from, he had a job to to do and he completely fukked it up, it's not about not fukking with biggie or not it shows a lack of respect to your craft by not memorizing something you about to spit in front of millions of people.

Quan should get a pass though,which would u say is more popular,Get Money or Hitemup?They lucky Quan aint come out like "First off fukk your bytch...."


Yall need to chill,it could be worse...plus Quan is a big Fabolous fan

Gve u fools this and you got the nerve to question him about just another Biggie verse?

 

[Millions]
