Rappers who came out during the wrong time periods

[Redwing80]

If Skyzoo came out in the 90s...

 

[My Girl is Bow Legged]

Magoo

He'd be a top 5 lyricist in this era

 

[Ghost Like Swayze]

Actually kesha jacked Uffie

i really expected this chick to blow

​

 

[Stuntone]

Big KRIT if he came out somewhere in the 00's before or after the ringtone era just when southern bass music was the in thing he would be big

Pimp C wouldve told him, stop rapping you fairy azz boy and just making my beats.

 

[CACarot]

Uhhh PAPOOPSE...he was meant to be in that 90's punchline rap era. He aint become known till around 2004.


But listening to have of you guys replies, you dudes either don't understand hiphop or just want to reply with rappers you feel like ahving a conversation about. Dumb asses in this thread saying sh1t like mos def should have came out in this time or Kayne came out to early .

 

[Ethnic Vagina Finder]

joey badass

If he would've came out in the early/mid 90's he would've just got lost in the mix with every other new york rapper during that period.

I REALLY think they could have been "OutKast" famous, real talk. Them dudes can spit, got jokes, make good songs....never understood why the world slept on them.
They're easily my favorite duo.

outkast was always a crossover group. no comparison.

speaking of outkast tho, i think cool breeze was before his time.

Strangely, I'm thinking about Meth. Just a matter of timing in the Wu rank, I think he had all the ingrédients to take over the whole game but coming out first solo out the Wu maybe had too high expectations, and we know about the flood etc...and Rza wasn't in that zone yet...now in no way Tical isn't dope, and I understand why he came out first, but a Meth solo a lil later like between Liquid Swords and OB4CL when they were all more polished and Rza was in another stratosphere? Maybe he just destroys the whole game and he's in the BIG/Jay/Nas discussion

ehh. meth just wasnt THAT good.

he was perfect for his position as frontman for the group, but he wasnt all that great by himself. he had the star-power tho. thats why hes the biggest name from the group.

I think Meth fell victim to the Wu really. Because RZA wanted them to wait till after Forever dropped he couldn't capitalize on his first album. He had one of the biggest singles ever on Tical

i can agree with this.

they couldve milked alot more money out of him in the mid-90s.

I ain't did shyt bruhhh


Dude is a walking L, the duck face tattoo fiasco

lol. thats a shame.

if grand hustle wouldve did him right, he wouldnt even have been in that position in the 1st place.

Mc Hammer. Real talk he is the blueprint of the enterprising rapper. Before it was popular he was in commercials, had a cartoon show and was deemed friendly by white people. If he came out today he'd be the featured artist on kidz bob and would be taking home mad nick teen kids choice awards. Plus he wouldn't have been labeled a sellout, since modern day sellouts are considered hustlers.

ehh, you cant take mc hammer out of his era, cuz he was the one that basically opened the floodgates for alot of stuff, good and bad.

i see what you mean tho. but if hammer qualifies, then im throwing dudes like master p & too short in the convo too.

The thing about Nipsey, is that Epic dropped the ball big time with him... he had the biggest buzz in LA since Game, rock solid mixtapes.... and then they were like

Him,Wiz and Jay Rock got the shyt end of the stick with labels who slept heavy on them

i didnt know nipsey was on epic. i thought he was indie. when was this?

dam epic sucks.

Exhibit D


Today success is only vauled at how much you sell, how many hustles you got and what you getting paid. Whether that's good or band hammer laid the groundwork.

these dudes used to talk so much smack back in the day.

Big KRIT if he came out somewhere in the 00's before or after the ringtone era just when southern bass music was the in thing he would be big

krit needs to stick to producing.

hes too dry on the mic.

Uhhh PAPOOPSE...he was meant to be in that 90's punchline rap era. He aint become known till around 2004.

papoose wouldnt have survived the '90s breh.

he came at the right time. PAUSE. he just signed the dumbest deal possible. how you sign under a rapper with equal or less buzz than you? and then you sign a seperate distribution deal with a label that hasnt been good at promoting rap artists since the '80s.

@Wacky D Papoose was the style of the late 90's only era he could have thrived in. He just lucked up by getting the deal he got at the time.

Nothing can stop classic music.

The classic from the 90's would be classics now.

Hell on Earth, The Chronic, IWW, OBFCL, Infamous, Doggystyle, War Reprt, AEOM, RTD, LAD.

Nothing can stop classic music from being great.....nothing

Now that this this culture has become garbage nothing can take away from the classics of the Past.

timing is everything in the music industry bro trust me

 

[MrFettuccinnePockets]

Anybody say Freddie Gibbs yet

i cant see papoose poppin more in the late '90s.

too much going on.

 

[ManBearPig]

Saigon came out too late and Blu too soon.

 

[kingjones29]

Ja rule, self explanatory.

how when he did pretty well for himself during his run

 

[TXTrill1]

I'm sorry, but at the bolded. I really don't see what you dudes see in Max B, and comparing this half retarded, non-rapping ass nikka to Big Pun is blasphemy in my opinion.

lmao real shyt nikkaz overrate Max B in NY like Atlanta with Gucci
