Rappers going from WACK to DOPE? Which rappers improved the most?

[TrapHouse Rock]

Gunplay comes to mind immediately

Ross too always thought he was just whatever until he came out with that Mafia Music had me like

Meek Mill

lmao like all of MMG basically

close thread



kendrick also been a beast but he's just on another level right now, has these other artists like why i ask him for a feature

Camron from Confessions of Fire to S.D.E. was a big change from wack to dope.


COF was while SDE/CHWM/PH was . Cam was sounding like Drag-On on COF


Also, TI went from I'm Serious to Trap Muzik/Urban Legend/King

Cam = most improved rapper in history.

From unlistenable clarity, offkey flows and the worst mic presence of the nee rappers from his gen.
to the highest skill executing emcee in every category of rap since 2000.

i thought kendrick was wack the first time i heard him (fukk a kdot). never checked for him again til i heard cartoons and cereal.

What did BoB begin with? Because the first time I heard him he was dropping hit records

2007 witnessed 1 hit record until he fell off until about 2010. In 2010 he was considered a part of the freshman class. I'd be embarrassed if I failed my freshman year 4 times....just to put it in a different perspective.

Big Sean for sure. Remember hearing his early stuff feeling like dude sounded like a garbage version of Kanye. Eventually I'd hear a verse here and there and think that wasn't half bad and he had some dope punchlines. I looked up later and realized he was snappin on songs.

Also didn't like Kendrick at first. Thought EP was wack, but when I heard "Cut You Off" and "The Heart pt 2" I knew dude was gonna be a problem.

Drake: I'm glad he's starting to realize that singing/harmonizing sh!t is for the birds

Jeezy: HATED him w/a passion when he first came out, but when "Can't Ban The Snowman" dropped, he started improving A LOT album by album and mixtape by mixtape. Even TM101 has "aged" damn good.

Rocko has gotten better over time.

T.I.

Not that he was HORRIBLE, but on I'm Serious, he had that HEAVY ATL accent, unimpressive bars, and sounded like a stereotypical southern rapper. Then on Trap Musik, he improved a whole lot, though he was still raw (still my favorite album by him). Since Urban Legend, he's been showcasing his lyrical ability, and has held his own on tracks with some of the top lyricists in the game (even having the best verse on some of those tracks).

Not all the way dope, but Fat Joe went from deplorable to respectable.
*see his appearance on Stunts, Blunts & Hip Hop.
