One got to go TI, Lil Wayne, DMX, Redman

[mobbinfms]

TI has a case for being the most underrated platinum rapper ever. nikka torched everything he touched for 5 years solid.

Nothing approaching a classic album though.

Does it matter though? In 92 The east was an afterthought, it's the same reason no one is impressed with Lebron getting to the Finals every year.

How was the East an afterthought?

 

[mobbinfms]

I spoke my opinion on RED,your question doesnt matter. Just another episode of east coast nikkas being on their own dikks too much. Nothing new

I'm from CA.

weezy can go

Why does that matter? The other 3 were don figures. He was a lil homie that never became the man

Redman ran the game in 1992-1993. He was the MAN during that time period.

The East was not an afterthought in 1992. At all.

Some of y'all be just talking I swear.

It wasn't nikkas talking out their ass.

The Chronic was the biggest album in 1992 so people think that alone meant the West ran things. They didn't lol. NY was still by far the forefront of rap

Wayne and tip are two of my all time favorites, both in my top 10. .I was a huge DMX for a few years there in the late 90s early aughts...never really fukked with Redman like that, so he has to get the boot...none of that early 90s overblown nostalgia shyt means nothing to me

Trap Music

 

[Kyle C. Barker]

If he sold a fraction of what he sold,repped the east and made forgettable music but captured that early nineties east coast vibed,he'd be king of the world

Its 2015 and the whole east coast bias counter argument no longer holds weight (hence the reason why redman is getting voted out).

TI is just a non descript rapper with no discerning qualities imo. Nothing about him really stood out to me. Atleast with redman you had a rapper who was funny as shyt but could also flip it on some psychadelic shyt (think dare iz a darkside). Plus those supaman luva series were legendary.

Lil Wayne gets the camby so fukking quickly it makes this thread pointless.

 

[TrebleMan]

T.I arguably has the best song of the 2000's (What You Know is right next to Grinding to me), and one of the best albums in one of hip-hop's greatest years (2005).

Redman gotta go.

 

[SirBiatch]

They had bigger impacts...longer staying power and arguably held the/a crown at some point in their career.

Red is great. Just didn't dominate the game.

Red was one of the biggest rappers in the game at one point. Early in the 90s, and even throughout the 90s. especially in the late 90s.

AMONG OTHERS DROPPING HEAT. i.e. actual competition.

Something that Weezy F Garbage never had to face.

 

[SirBiatch]

Never listend to Red, but fukk with Lil wayne, X and can listen to a T.I song or 2.

So Red you in the bush's

Don't you think you're a little uninformed to be in this poll?

I wonder how many of y'all are like this.
