Mike Tyson "20 Years Ago 90% Rappers Were Legit Tough Guys"

[OG Talk]

It's really not that much of straw man...considering he said 90% of all rappers were legit tough guys...that's the overwhelming vast majority of every rapper walking the earth....I mean if somebody is saying something that is CLEARLY hyperbolic, ridiculously exaggerated silliness born out of nostalgia and expects me to take it at face value...I have to question something, especially when COMMON FUKKING SENSE and others with even more initimate knowledge of hip hop from that era say otherwise...I'm not calling him a flat out liar or knocking or him or anything...but he's doing the same thing all these "back in the day puzzy was wetter" dudes do when they get older...it's just human nature

Yeah you're clearly caught up on the semantics of 90%...And of course it was hyperbole.. Just like when you say Wayne gets treated like the anti-christ.. The general point still remains..Rappers today are generally softer than they were 20 years ago...

But so are athletes, truck drivers, landscapers and PE teachers....It's more a reflection of enviornment...

That was the overall point he was making if you listen to the entire point in context...

And it's not even "my" era because I'm much closer in age to you than I am to Mike...It just is what it is and how it's always been...

You nikkas is pathetic

 

[blackslash]

It's funny how Pac is always you guys poster child for a fake gangster rapper..But who are the real gangster rappers from your era that you are comparing him to?

Drake? Kanye? Wiz? Wayne? Ross?

I notice a few months ago you were running around procliaming Keef as your generations new Pac.. Then he got sent to camp Snoopy, broke down crying in the courtroom and wants to get baptized and give his life to Jesus




So ask yourself.. Who are they to be equaled to?

U mean nikkaz like 50?, Game? Jeezy? Gucci?

Im comparing to nikkaz who dnt wait till fame hits to start putting on a thug bravado

Pac was a fakket ass strippin ass ballerina...that what he was...so he shouldve been rappin as one since he was supposed to be soo real..according to his stans anyways

While we got a real WC nikka like K dot who surpasses Pac in skill, character and genuineness and isnt out there acting and sht

And u wanan tell em u had it better right??When u had some fakket ass ballerina ass nikka out there fronting like some thug cuz he felt that was the only way he could reach us....

nikka fck outta here..Pac aint nothing but a bytch nikka turned thug and got so consumed into the character he played that he payed for it...and I have no sympathy for his dumass

So stay mad as we got real nikkaz like K dot and sht

Plz.....u can fool them dumass cac hipsters with ur lil urban tales about pac but not me

So you're just no-sell what I'm actually saying...disregard everything and argue some IMAGINARY argument you've made up in your head...niqqa get the hell outta here until you learn how to read

Mike said 90% of all rappers were legit tough guys...I say that is a clearly ridiculous statement...all the other sh!t I don't care about and haven't said a word about....what you think if you TYPE YOUR IMAGINARY ARGUMENTS THAT I'M NOT MAKING IN CAPITIALIZED LETTERS IT MAKES MORE SENSE?

you CLEARLY lack common sense to even make the statements ur making in the first place...of course him saying 90% wasnt accurate and it wasnt even MEANT TO BE...he's basically making a statement that majority of rappers then were tougher than the majority of rappers now....and no..we not talkin bout Joe Blow from down the block with no record deal recording out of his basement...we talkin bout nikkas who was KNOWN...and even then...society ALONE makes his statement hold true in that regard as well..u basically just runnin ya mouth g...for no reason...dismissing everything he's sayin as nostalgia when he's had interactions with rappers of the past to present and u have interactions with NEITHER....

Drake and kanye aren't gangster rappers though.
They both make alt Hip Hop, Drake does get away with
some really out of character shyt though like
throwing up signs for example.

let's not sully the good name of the Midwest Cowboy

lol...I got nothing but love for Bizzy...great rapper and part of a legendary group...but "legit tough guy"

 

[hustlemania]

...so a bunch on 90s babies in here tryna discredit a nikka who was REALLY out there in the streets at that time?...smh..I guarantee every nikka in this thread that call Pac soft dont have half the heart that nikka had...

common sense, considering a huge portion of this board is filled with random people not only pretending to be Black, but have never got in a fight in their life..

but, we gonna act like Tyson wasn't gettin taxed like these rappers, fighters and entertainers have been, and do now..? i think Tyson is one of the coolest folks i ever met, but lets keep it a hunnid..

I bet he would fukk a nikka up and has seen and been thru 10 times more shyt than majority of these new nikkas....them Bone Thugs nikkas was real hood nikkas as well...u don't even have to be the biggest tough guy from that era to be tougher than alotta these rap nikkas now...

You clown Pac for being a stripper then you name Game (who REALLY was a stripper)



You clown Pac for getting shot, then doing nothing but rapping about it then you name Curtis..



Jeezy man got murked but he squashed that...I bet you know just what we call that.....



As far as Trap God Guwap goes he's 100... I don't want no problems with him...

and that's the overall crazy shyt about it...even nikkas who was tough guys was gettin shytted on by even more tougher guys...nah mean?...certain nikkas from that era would run shyt now...and im not even talkin bout the toughest nikkas....

 

[Notorioushnic]

Look at these Pac stans with their double standard ass reasoning to justify Pac's tough guy bravado...These Pac stans are hilarious

That fake ass ballerina fakket ass nikka

I spit at that man's lie of a legacy and thats why that fakket died broke..

Thank Gawd for real West Coast nikkaz like K dot...who keeps it authentic and aint out there making a front.....

And fck any bytch arguing with me about Pac being better than Hov...I'll kiss you, fukk you and have u feelin like I love u with my immaculate stroke game..then dip back to my crib before ya ass wake up and have u wake up with no good morning text from me the morning after

But dont you stan CHIEF KEEF?

blackslash might be the worst poster on the forum.

 

[powerpainpleasure]

miKe is exceptionally bright. When u r a real G you have 2 be a student of the game. miKe is phenomenally intelligent. He learnt from the Olde Gs, his trainer Cus, and dude reads like a mf. There's nothing you cant tell him about boXing and that's why he was able to escape the fate of Sonny Liston coz he read about him.

miKe is a genius of boXing and human redemption.
