What do you guys think?
He says that people got away from lyricism and today dudes will say a rapper is the greatest in the world for specific qualities but being nice is not one of them.

In Around 6:40

True or untrue?

I think it's true and certain artists like Big Sean, JayZ and 2Chainz are proof of that.

I guess it depends on how u define being nice ...I think it encompasses more than just being able to rhyme a bunch of multi syllables

if he would have ever fully developed his skillset.
we would not be having this convo's.
as he could have just realistically bodied, mostly all the nikkaz who were garbage in the upper tier.
one of the most incredible wordsmiths, ever.
yet, so offkey and lacks convincability.
he was never going to actualize his potential.
till he ramped up.
shame, he never did.
I so, wish that nikka would have ramped up.

Putting Jay-Z in the same class as Big Sean and 2 Chainz seriously discredits your argument. Papoose was a good rapper (emphasis on was) who never grew as an artist and just kinda became corny. But I do agree that most of today's music is garbage. It's stale and unoriginal, and most of the artists making the music are extremely uninteresting to put it kindly, but the state of hip-hop has nothing to do with why Papoose's career has stalled.

While he has a point:

a nicca like Papoose will tell you being nice is everything in the world.

I dont think theres anyone on here that could put it any better then this...its a damn shame too. With that being said I'd sadly consider Papoose one of the best rappers in New York right now off his pen game alone, minus between 1 and 5 corny punchlines per song

I agree with Asspoose...but he still trash on the mic. Sad because he has potential.

Facts Only. How many times have one of these nikkas on here posted *insert rapper* is so dope...look at his sales....look at how popular he is....look at his commercials on tv, he's everywhere...of course he's dope...

Hov is far from wack...but how many times have you heard the good ol "he's better than *insert rapper*...just look how much he is worth...look at his girl...etc".

How the fukk do you compare rappers and completely ignore the rapping part? If I wanted to compare the success or popularity between two grown men then I would be specific about it....but I don't.
