Is this generation of street rappers the realist ever?

[How Sway?]

Not at all....alot of them are drug addicts.

rappers in the 80s were rapping about 'sucka MC's' while being high off coke and boy

ODB(rip) was a notorious dope-fiend, DMX ect ect the list goes on.

Nah. We're just in the era of weed carriers and street level goons.

The FBI been investigating Wu-Tang for 20 years. You can read 90 pages of files ranging from murder to gun and drug running.

During the height of it's power Death Row had police on it's pay roll.
There is no modern equivalent of J. Prince. Actually the modern equivalent of J. Prince is still J. Prince.

The types of guys being brought up in this thread wouldn't even have a dedicated rap career back then. They'd be D-tier affiliates working for the types of people I mentioned, like Killa Sin. The only reason they're considered "rappers" now is because of social media, and anybody with a cell phone can shoot a video.

Fred.

no

It's probably the same.. if anything there's more surveillance and law enforcement technological advancements. shyt that used to fly ain't even getting off the ground now.

 

[Ribbs]

Real stupid if anything.

Rappers today go out of there way to show how "real" they are. Back then they just did it and it became apart of their legend. Look at Freddy Foxx.

Anyone denying this would have be in denial of how convoluted gangsta rap
was in the 90's and early 00's. You're telling me studio gangster after studio gangster were more realer than this era of literal murder rap...



Also, Kodak Black is the future.

 

[the cac mamba]

the answers probably yes, but its also the broadest definition of "rapper"

 

[Sk3ptical]

Yes, but old heads gone come in here and hate

 

[Big Mark]

I don't really need the realest rappers... I just need nikkas who can rap. That's whats lacking. These nikkas can't rap worth shyt! These are the worst fukkin rappers ever! Even the so called best ones suck now. What happened to shyt that matters... like talent?
