Is Master P the biggest biter in Hip Hop history?

[Mastamimd]

Them No Limit flunkies deep on here. Yall bout to hurt some feelings.

As a fan I agree 10p percent. Hell even Krazy sounded like Pac. Wobble Wobble beat sounded like a poor man's Drag Em N Tha River, Ooh Wee AND Choppa Style sounded like a blatant rip off of Shake it Like a Dog, and Choppa was supposed to be their Juvenile replacement. You can write a legitimate thesis on P and his biting, hell the first topic I've ever seen on an internet forum was on his biting(down-south.com).

Kris Kross=Naughty By Nature
Da Brat=Snoop

Treach Ghostwrote "Jump" for Kriss Kross so that wasn't really biting

The Da Brat shyt was lol

P is unique in that he's literally never had an original idea that he didn't directly copy from somebody else.

It's really amazing when you look at it.

He's the greatest hustler in hip-hop history.

Hilarious when you think about


Wait


Who was screaming uuuuugh! on every track before P. (He probably stole it from some mentally handicapped kid.)

All I know is that for a long time it's been an open secret that Treach ghostwrote "Jump"

The post-heyday hi-jacking was way more shameless than when he was at his peak. His “crunk” era was putrid

there will be no Master Percy slander around me. He gave us 90s southern brothers a hero we could throw in our eastcoast brethren faces. They'd get so heated talking that "real hip hop shyt" and we'd just blast no limit shyt throughout the barracks

Yeah he did some "heavy biting" but the best no limit shyt was all their own. Who could deliver "Swamp Aggin" like P... or time check my crackhouse...Bourbons and lacs.....make em say ughhh.....the joint on the how to be a player sdtk....and many many others. Lots of other and even more successful or critically acclaimed rappers have bit other's wave so P ain't the only one.

 

[Amor fati]

This is the track that started all the style biting

A roach given 1/50th of a human intellect and a bottle of cheap vodka?

JD and Master P were both running jokes in their own way, but the way mainstream culture works is every genre of art or movement can be popularized, reabsorbed, and distilled into something shytty the masses consume. Then the art that history privileges is simply what people remember best. So even though we were clowning the trash shyt in real time, the kids were seeing/hearing the videos/music on a constant loop, and because they associate it with their own memories of youth and life, and it becomes worthwhile via nostalgia. So now we see these bonkers threads about JD being one of the all time dopest producers, and Master P "floating" on tracks, and Ja Rule low key being an all time great. Just darkly comical echoes of cultural and artistic shyttiness. Morbidly fascinating for sure.

JD was actually a great producer though

He's not in the Dre,Timbaland,Rza,Premo, etc..category but he's definitely leagues ahead of cats like Swizz. I never remember him getting crowned in real time other than Dre and Death Row calling him out.

 

[Big Boss]

Him and Spulja neck and neck but I would give the edge to P. Every successful run he made was based on someone else's idea and he made over 300 million doing it.

91-95=Biting bay area mob music, his whole Ice Cream Man persona that put him on the map was lifted from the Luniz.

96=I'm Bout It era he starts acting like he's from New Orleans again due to Cash Money locally taking over, I'm Bout It comes from UNLV.

97=After Pacs death he sharks his whole persona/flow/cadence and song ideas "I miss my homies" "Heaven for a gangsta" etc..

99-2000=Cash Money takes over and he makes a movie and song called Hot Boyz. No Limit subject matter and videos turn more flashy and catered towards the club "Wobble Wobble" "Ice On My Wrist" "Tight Whips" etc..

2001=Lil Romeo comes out on the heels of Bow Wow success, fresh with cornrows and a matching cartoon chain like his predecessor.

I will give P credit for starting the record label hood movie craze with I'm Bout It though.

Yeah I’ve been seeing more people try and retcon Hammer as some kind of hip-hop legend in recent years too.
