I thought I was the only one that noticed about Styles P. His rap voice used to be dope it's really annoying now. He still says a lot of dope shyt but he sounds weird

one of the worst fall offs ever



to this




poster boy for this thread is banks tho. dude sounds like he got kicked in the throat now

 

[The God Poster]

honestly i'm not seein the big difference in lloyd banks. i think it depends on how well mastered the tracks are. nikka is puttin more breath into his voice nowadays thats all.

check ya ears. Banks voice was deep and clear now its more grity and less clear.

He better lyrically tho.
@Tunez

Shyne should be the main answer. As he lost his doing what the OP is notorious for

Even on the Keys I felt his voice had fallen off by then. His Bad Boy and early Ruff ryder days to me was when his voice was dope

 

[<<TheStandard>>]

Fabolous' voice got a a lot better from when he first dropped.......His voice got deeper after his first album.

 

[AntLive1981]

Yeah current Ghostface don't sound like the old Ghost Plus I liked DMX 's voice when he first came out, now it's all scraggly and rough sounding.

 

[Michael's Black Son]

Not if i dip the cocks in honey or green tea tho

Im done

 

[Soundwave]

Trae's voice has always been tho.

I think his voice hit its nadir on Street King - still a good album, but he sounded like he needed some Sucrets on every song.

Compare this:



To when he was first coming up with Guerilla Maab:

the 1st 3 that come to mind are:

raekwon
noreaga
dark-skinned bul from smiff-n-wessun(i want to say steele, but he might be tek).

 

[You Win Perfect]

nah man ya'll trippin his voice always been like that. like i said before it all depends on how much energy he decides to put into his vocals. thats what ya'll mistaken that less clear shyt from. the mastering on his tapes isn't consistent either.

FOH with NORE, i think his voice got BETTER than before, he sounds like he has MIC CONTROL AND PRESCENSE as to what he did before, his voice is smooth and has a better tone than what he did in his early days.

not even close.

his popularity from then compared to now says it all.

popularity has nothing to do with it, he was on a major for a while which is a whole other subject, but voice was, he has more command now.

Banks voice did change listen to his live freestyles

Young Banks voice was deeper

Old Banks voice sometimes sounds scratchy

 

[3rdWorld]

Ghostface and Shyne hurt the most..

Po could regain it if he got his head right.
