Ludacris is one of the most underrated rappers

[igottabaldhead]

He is a Southern Legend, his discogrpahy is NICE. Has legit CLASSIC singles, and is an icon/ushered in the new era of 00s hiphop

And he isnt some low level lyricist, dude is nice.

why is he rarely mentioned amongst rappers ?

 

[Asicz]

He was underrated as a lyricist and mc even in his prime.

 

[SirBiatch]

Luda gets mentioned. the issue with him is that he never had a classic album or even close. He was always good for singles. just like Busta Rhymes, who is often overlooked for the same reason

Gotta play this when I wake up now

 

[Easy-E]

I agree

Pre 06, though

Word of Mouf is one of the best Rap albums I've ever heard

 

[chemicalsword]

His voice and delivery are dope. Charasmatic. As far as lyricism... he has his moments.
He came weak on in the A with tip and big boi. That verse sticks out as extremely underwhelming
on what should have been a lay up...

chicken n beer, and red light district are hip hop classics tho


and as for bustah, his debut "The Coming" is most DEFINITELY a classic breh.

Is he tho? He was dope as fukk when he was out. Do you listen to his albums now? I was a huge Luda fan back then but I don't listen to him at all anymore, like never. Hes got a few good albums but he gets 0 play these days

 

[Tetris v2.0]

You can make a classic Greatest Hits album for dude, but his own catalog aint really all that IMO

horrible comparison, Busta has a classic album under his belt

Luda is extremely nice as an emcee, song making is where he comes up short in my opinion

[igottabaldhead]

[Mac Casper]

single rapper but I bet we would all view his albums in a different light now by today standards

think the comparison is horrible because you're desperate to clown SirBiatch, even though the comparison couldn't be more accurate, b-r-e-h-s.

at The Coming being a classic album. When will y'all learn the differences between trash album, mediocre album, good album, great album and classic album?
