Most blatant biting, rip-offs, wannabes in Rap History

[Grand Eeezus Maxwell]

I fw Bronson, but he even yells "IT'S ME!" like Ghost did on "Triumph"

 

[bad_company]

Angelous is the most blatant I can remember. Exact carbon copy of Jay.

Had a (sort of) mixtape of him on a burnt cd, it was like bootleg versions of Jigga songs, like they actually tried to recreate beats such as Best Of Me Pt 2. Uncanny.

I wonder what this guy is up to nowadays.

Fake ass Redman

Rocafella was a diss to Joe Sinistr. This shyt prolly wasnt even dudes fault....I can see Erick outside the booth coaching this dude on how to inflect every damn word like Red with hopes of giving him a chance. prolly some fresh out the jail dude E was trying to help..

Never knew that. Any receipts? Not that i dont believe you, just curious.

WILD OUT ON HIS STAFF LIKE BIRDS ONE AND TWO
MY CREW RUNS THICKER THAN SYRUP FROM THE BOROUGH
YOU GET HURT UP, WORD UP, JAMMED LIKE PEARL

Redman wrecked that nikka

That second part you quoted was about Hammer. Who was pop and then they tried to switch his style to hardcore. Hammer and Redman had been going back and forth at that time

I guess that part from basically was aimed at Hammer too:

And why is it everytime that a multi-platinum artist
Always use the underground to make a comeback?
Is it fair to the hardcore nikkas that rap?
That don't give a fukk about the radio plus the next bytch at that?
And being hardcore and mad about wearing high-tech boots and black skully hats?
And making fake-ass frowns because your best buddy packs?

Actually Jam Master Jay produced Under The Sun, plus Joe Sinistr was on JMJ at the time.

But he did debuted on E-Double's first album

i actually liked unda the sun ... but i thought it was all good since he was on Payback II w/ erik .. although his style was a little different ..

Also on rockafella this was aimed at Joe

I'm magical like Fantasia on paper
I Saw the Light like Kraftwerk, of course
When the T-L-A Rock shock the stuff, It's Yours!
To your drawers, your record label got your staff gassed
Thinkin you gonna sell two mil cakes real fast
But you flopped, and your image choked like a tec
Now, who freakin style your ass gonna steal next?
Are there any more imitators in the house?? There are no
Bust like NBA Jams, and you can have Chicago

Beelow from BR was big on biting CMR/NL.

"It's beautiful baby..."

 

[O.Red]

[Rhyme n Tekniq]

I honestly thought this was a Master P dedication thread

But here's some obvious ones from P

these nikkas even stole Papa Rue to do the bridge for the last verse lol. shameless

The new no limit was jumping on the hotboy$ wave after they had already broken up and left the label.

nikkaz was grave diggin

 

[CM_Burns]

They tried to make Mic Geronimo a fake Nas

The Natural is still better than half of Nas albums

 

[CM_Burns]
