Do they not realize Clipse was everywhere in the early 00’s? They were around before Drake was on the scene. Pusha has some good solo stuff out there too. Drake fans just don’t know any of it.

This thread keeps getting better :laff:

:wtf:
I imagine that you’re getting your @Juggalo Fred on and trolling

you just going to continue to say this in every thread with anybody who collabed with prodigy huh?

Nahhhh this ain’t it. BG was already platinum solo and with Hot Boyz before Prodigy even released his first solo album
So we all agree then. Mobb Deep put New Orleans on the map :wow:

La La La isn't really pop, and Change Clothes wasn't slow. But those records worked because those records worked like most attempts at a Neptunes hit. Jay never went to them for a raw rap record so using them as why Grinding wouldn't work for him doesn't make sense to me.

It would've absolutely been "bigger" cause it was Jay lol, the question is better. I think there's a very good chance of Jay snapping on it, but even if he didn't, I'm not seeing that beat with '02 Jay struggling commercially.
BP2 went triple platinum within 2 or 3 months of release but he was struggling commercially :gucci:

Mood Musik 2 is Joe's best joint. I still wouldn't put Joe's discography ahead of Pusha's overall. Pusha has had a more successful solo career no question. Pusha has the more successful group projects. His "We Got It For Cheap" mixtapes are damn near just as successful as the Mood Musik series. Pusha also has the more critically acclaimed solo albums. Albeit I will say Joe's first album is more successful than any Pusha album and he has a more successful single than any Pusha solo single.
MM2 is an all time GOAT mixtape, easily top 5 :wow:
No, it wouldn't fit BP1. BP2 was more about lack of direction and reaching for hits than Jay not having any fire in him. Grinding would've likely been one of if the not the gem of the album.
BP2 was a product of making a double album when a single album would have done. It Hov took the best songs from both discs and threw “People Talkin” on there too, BP2 woulda easily been one of Hov best albums.

And y’all wilding saying Hov wouldn’t have bodied Grindin :gucci:

Clipse did their thing on it and I won’t say for sure Hov version woulda been that much better but he woulda made a hit with that beat. In all fairness that beat was so crazy just about anyone woulda made a hit with it.

NOPE DONT BE SCARED NOW

I WANNA SEE WHAT ARE THESE
CLASSIC SONGS THAT HAVE LAUNCHED
PUSHA T INTO A TOP 50 RAPPER
OF ALL TIME OVER PPL LIKE
CAMRON, MYSTIKAL, BIZZY/KRAYZIE BONE, TWISTA
JA RULE, JUVIE ETC
:devil:
:evil:

People sleep on Ja but during his run Ja made dope ass albums with at least 2 of them being classics. Ja dropped a dope album 4 years in a row.

I came in to play devils advocate but shyt :patrice:

Give me Pusha over

Luda
Nelly
N'Quil

but there are some artists like Game who I'd put over Pusha T, and he not even on your list.


Nellyville and Country Grammar are classics. Luda first 5 albums were all dope and he a dope lyricist. I’d put Luda over Pusha lyrically :unimpressed:
Harlem Diary Of A Summer and POME are definitely classics

What’s with this silly shyt about Drake trying to be Pusha T? With what labels budget? What year was record labels running around trying to find the next Pusha t? All threads like this show is who was really outside in their community seeing the music people reacted to.

The only Clipse song you’d hear is GRINDIN.

Nothing More
Nothing Less

"he's nice he can rap his ass off, but i don't remember nikkas wanting to be like him, dressing like him or the bytches wanting to fukk him"

:snoop:

To be fair...

Jim has a point because most of the people who we consider great, the culture at some point tried to emulate them or were apart of a milestone

From Fab(not even a big fan) to Meth to E-40 and so on..mind you these people are probably in the ranges where people would want to put pusha..

I fukks wit Pusha, but homeboy has never moved the culture..

Which is Jim's point
