I’ve never seen a rappers hometown so split on someone. Some New York cats look at nore as a top tier mc at his time with cnn til the super thug era and also say he was respected in the streets and put in work in his younger days. Other New Yorkers say he was a wack ass hatin ass nikka that prodigy been tryna tell us about. For the record I personally felt Capone went harder than nore on a lot of cnn cuts and features…as far as his street rep? I’m not sure which side I believe but a lot of people say he was thoro despite capones iffy rep as a possible snitch.

NORE was definitely a shooter and real street nikka. He could never rap forreal though just a unique voice/good delivery.

Master P was way hotter than NORE and damn near everybody not named Jay or X in 98. The Last Don went 4x Plat and No Limit as a whole sold like crazy.
A lot of those album sales were fake manipulating barcodes

Back then nore was in my top 5 of rappers I enjoyed listening too. He had that "extra" it factor, personality and was able to incorporate it in his rhymes.

Immortalized from his work on War Report.

NORE in terms of impact, presence, and success seems very underrated and underdiscussed as a rapper in the past 5 to 10 years imo.

I doubt that Rap listeners born after 1996 get it.

NORE has been too humble imo

Pun was big in the hip hop community, not that big of a mainstream star like X or Jay

Excuse me? He's a god in Latino circles, especially Puerto Rico. What songs did Jay and X have bigger than



He went double platinum.

Verse from T.O.N.Y. is a classic verse and made me listen.


That is an intelligent hoodlum return diss verse to nyc that is why you liked it.
Nore is pixar. This is rap not rnb.
Ghost written pixar rappers get no love.
Period.
Like real talk.
Every time he open his mouth on his show.
I wish somebody would be like. So what is it like for someone to hand you a rhyme and you go listen to scrstch vocals.

That should be the question the real emcees ask his phoney ass.
The problem is the nikkaz interviewed are not the actual real dope.
Just the phonies and homebodies who needed a loan on his show.


You not hard.
Or dope if somebody got write sumfin for you.
Period.

Pun ruled his whole year period.

Nobody rocked harder when pun dominated nobody.

Pun had the entire world music and every club.

What should be talked about.
Is what if pun did not suffer bad health.

That should be the topic.

As real talk.
None of them nikkaz was a popular grassroots in that era like pun from the slow burn and re-release of the joe remix to i don't wanna.


Nore can talk.
Except his time in the sun was a joke to pun.

A lot of them was joke to pun because it was all communications act ovrrsatirated method runs. After jay set the oversaturated standard.
with his four single run at a time on volume ii run.
If not for over saturation by payola.
Plus the communication act chsnging everything to purposeful shyt.
To usher in the prison industrial economy and complex with now certified applied knowledge. To the doldrums of low quality culture thief hell.
we all have to endure now.

None of these dudes in that era were the real guy who were signed.

Whole era is a lie of nikka hiding at home and flexing with a loan and camera crew on a loan payed for video.
Ask dem nikkazghaz to spit.
other than busta red and meth in general and get an excuse.
or wack attempt that was excused.
Y'all nikkaz still slaves to bullshyt to this day. A quarter of a century to this day.
That i know y'all never left the house yaselves. As we never hear nuffin about you.
Like these scary homebody ass rappers as well.
