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

[Larry Lambo]

Cash Money and Marvelous (also from Philly)

were biting Jazzy Jeff and the Fresh Prince HARD

It's like somebody asked them to parody Jazzy Jeff and The Fresh Prince. Same content, same voice, same flow, same production sound.

 

[get these nets]

20 seconds in....you can guess who they were biting...this one is shameful



not hip hop but this Prince biting was DISGUSTING!!!!

 

[cozy carl]

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

this uncozy creature look stupid as fukk in that green hoodie

[QUOTE="letti cook, post: 26639588,] sound just like Pac...

I forgot all about that fukking Nokia ringtone beat

 

[OHSNAP!]

Not a bad song per se, but the shameless Goodie Mob biting is just too much. Cheap-copy-Khujo and Smalltime Gipp

The very first times I heard the Roots song "Clones" I could have SWORN the first rapper, MARS, was Ghostface....

[Mike the Executioner]

I'd be keeping it less than real if I didn't call out Tribe for coming out as De La Soul Clones, themselves

Was it ever explained why Tribe dressed like that when they first came out?

De La Soul were the hottest thing in music, easier to get a deal if you package yourself like whatever is hot.
Either their idea to get on, or label's idea to present them to the public.

But if at first you don't succeed

try try again

Technically they both came up in the same neighborhood doing the same thing, so who knows who ultimately copied who. They were pretty respected in Philly.

Speaking of jacking Mase flow this was one of the most blatant examples

Funny because I always remember hearing Clipse on that Justin Timberlake tack and thinking how much Push sounded like Mase on that shyt
