Rappers whose run lasted longer than you thought

[Kyle C. Barker]

Pit fukking Bull. That man went from spitting(no lie he was a real serious rapper I know yall remember that pulls jon song he did straight flames) to being one of the biggest pop acts on America

you know what? I'm gonna add is brother flo rida to the list. That guy is like a perpetual one hit wonder.

I'm not sure if I've ever met anyone that was a true fan of the guy.

 

[KEEPITTRILLA]

I thought Katy Perry jus had a hot song about being a temporary lesbian but she hasnt stopped since
Fat Joe fasho every couple years doing shyt, I remember he had a decent album around 2009-11 too
thought Rozay was done after the cop thing and beefing with 50

Desiigner, The Game

 

[nalej]

Fabolous for sure. Snoop is somehow relevant still after starting as a gangsta rapper like 20 years ago.

 

[beenz]

flo-rida should easily be the # cat on this list.

 

[Homeboy Runny-Ray]

3-6.

yea. I was a 3-6 mafia fan and figured they'd be done once half the group bounced. but it makes sense. they started shuckin-n-jiving in the mid-00s, then basically went pop after that. and all that kept them around until rap went to complete chit.

now juicy j of all people, has a solo career.........and with that said, I throw tity boi/2chainz in the same category as him.

man, one thing ive noticed is a lot of these dudes that lingered around, really don't have much to be proud about, if we want to be real.

 

[CM_Burns]

Gucci Mane, I was surprised he was around for a few years, let alone 10

 

[Wargames]

Fat Joe. He got what 25 years in the game and knows how to collabo well.

 

[tDames]

Migos.
I thought they wouldn't be able to keep the momentum up, but Zaytoven and 808 Mafia kept the fire going.

 

[FeloniousMonk]

I don't know what this sentence means.

Name an LL Cool J album you think is undeniably classic and tell me why it's undeniable. In 2016.

I'm not going to talk about Illmatic just yet because our convo is about LL Cool J.

What are you basing Illmatic being a classic in the sense of? (Edit: know people who think illmatic is just...alright..would they be wrong?)

And why wouldnt Radio/BAD/Mama Said..be mentioned in the same likes far as underground and mainstream acceptance, production, innovation, lyrics, flows, styles, in the prospective ERAS they where released in?

And you brought up both LL AND Nas to make an definitive statement based on how you feel.

If you said..IMO I Feel LL has no classic albums, I probably wouldnt have responded.
