Spin: Songs Rappers Passed On

[El negrito de tejas]

Devils Pie only charted as high as 69 on the R&B charts..lol whatever..

Bruh think about all the people canibus was working with back then whose tracks he was featured on.

Now if canibus had the beats that redman, method man, DMX, The Lost Boyz, The Firm he'd have a completely different career path. Worst thing he could have done is allow Wyclef to produce most of his album

Yeap.

Even sticking with Clark Kent was a good idea, cause that "How We Roll" was another joint that had nikkas hyped for his album. Then you get it and Wyclef making world music for this nikka, terrible rock-rap collab, orchestral shyt... just awful all the way around. Hit or no hit, ANY beat by Premier in '98 would've done Canibus a favor.

But who knows what it would have done with Bis using it,. If nothing else it would have been the best beat on that turd of an album

It was supposed to be for "nikkanometry" from the "Can-I-Bus" album.

Also, Lupe Fiasco passed on "Nothin On You"

he did record a song for it, with bruno's hook and all and the label felt it was better off for B.O.B., same thing with Airplanes and Lupe was about to give up cuz Atlantic kept taking away his singles!

come on y'all.. I mean just becuz it fit for somebody else dont mean it was for them. Devils Pie wasnt no huge record. Let be real here

Plus most producers make skeletons and share those.....it's hard for some artists to see the finished product in that state.

Fukk all that... the actual SONG is a fukking timeless classic though, and a lot of that has to do with the beat.
