Californ-i-a by way of BK
Every rapper in history has a corny/wack line, that's not the issue

The issue is why was the comparison made in the first place? Let's just say hypothetically those lines are on the same level (the fart line and the butt/ashtray lines), what is his overall point? Like what message is Markman trying to convey? For every corny/wack line Biggie may have had, he has hundreds, if not thousands other great lines, story telling tracks, flows, cadences, deliveries, etc...that make up for the few misses he may have on a bar here and there. Ice Spice has none of that, so what ultimately was he trying to get across?

"Biggie had some corny lines, so Ice Spice can too"? Is that what we're doing? You comparing one MC who has a list of attributes that make him a top flight MC. Ice Spice is a novelty rapper with no disconcernable skill set, so her corny lines stand out more because there's nothing else behind it to mask it or make up for it.

And I actually like Ice Spice, she seems chill. She got some bops. But this just is a silly argument on its face. I guess Weird Al Yankovic = Redman since they both implement comedy in their raps.

This not even apples and oranges. This like comparing apples and pizza.

prosper any where on earth
Guys like Markman are getting pushed out of rap "media/journalism" and one of the only ways they can get attention is doing stuff like this. Same reason Elliot Wilson is constantly running around begging young artists to give him an interview. I like Rob btw, I'm not shytting on him. But you cannot exist in that world by only talking about Griselda and the once-every-4-years Cole/Kendrick album.

when you lacking ways to adapt, father time comes and sweep you away.

Elliot and markman be hova nut hugging and it came with a price

The issue with them dudes, is that they only cover music

They can review concerts or musical biographies

but no they wanna do the easy safe stuff.

On a more serious note, lighthearted lyrics have their place and humor is something that's actually kind of missing in the game

That said, Wack is wack and drawing biggie comparisons wasn't really necessary (beyond attention whoring and clickbait)

Oh yeah ...witty and funny rhymes are most definitely some of the things that come to mind when we all think of ice spice.






Nygga....no!
:stopitslime:

you ever had a real pretty girlfriend and brought her around your crew when you were younger?

its usually a wake up call who's with u and who aint on your team :francis:

Lame brehs will sell them selves and their whole culture out and kill you for some clout and money.

throw in a young pretty spanish bytch who blew the fukk up in the rap world with a phat ass....oh they'll kill their own mama over that.

if this bytch didn't have a phatty and that she wasn't a money maker for that clown nobody would be saying any of this.

believe that.
