@JustCKing

You don't even know hip hop history which is why you keep making ridiculous post like this. Busta blew up in 1991 by bodying the legends known as a tribe called quest on their own record. He was already major and known from leaders of the new school but scenario put him on the map. Scenario was a pure 90's street hip hop record.

A few years later Flavor in your ear was another street record with some the biggest rap artists of all time in puff and biggie and ll cool j and Busta again destroys the record. This was a street record featuring goats btw for those who said busta can't hang with them.

It isnt until mid 90s Busta drops his first solo hit single in woo hah. This was a top 10 record that year And get this.. it's a street record. He is spitting. The whole "the coming" album is 90s gritty boom bap hip hop.

His 2nd album got put your hands where my eyes can see but it's still a harder street album overall from beats to the lyrics. It's not goofy mindless club music. He is rapping rapping still.

I would say Party fun lighted hearted Busta doesn't even start until late 90s and his 3rd solo album ELE. That's when you get the gimme some mo records etc.. he is already a multi platinum artist at this point that blew up off street records.

Do you agree with the bolded?

Say...yall really trying to push Busta Rhymes as a "street" artist?:mjlol:

Remember when Busta came outta nowhere and shytted on Ja Rule on Hail Mary....nikkas was :ohhh: cause that wasnt his lane AT ALL

he even said at the end of the record "ima return to my regular self...and have FUN again"

Busta was always a fun, party rapper....he's definitely better than Missy as an mc...he can jump on Never Scared and body it....he can jump on Ante Up and body it....but lets be reality...he's known for the same vibe and aesthetic as Missy. Dude intro'd her debut.

He's not jumping in versuz with mixtape and album cuts...he dropping Gimme Some More, What It Is, Dangerous, Touch It etc.

He would've matched up beautifully with Ludacris

When T.I. had his run, he was clearly the biggest artist in ATL. T.I. ruined his whole run by

1) Staying in trouble

2) Co-signing and doubling down on the co-sign of Iggy Azalea

3) Becoming ATL'S unofficial spokesman against social injustices

4) Talking to much, which undermines #3 when he was out here talking about his daughter's hymen. The public didn't need to know that. It undoes whatever voice he might've had because feminists and just people in general were dumbfounded and disturbed by that.
forgot about this


ti just didnt know how to age gracefully and take on another role .....which honestly doesnt make snese cuz hustle gang and his artists had a lot of sucess

been saying for over a year now that Busta is too good live and has too many good songs for anyone to compete, DOA.


you could take just that thread with features "Does Busta Ever Go Home And See His Kids?" and win

dude is on shyt from Erykah Badu To M.O.P to The Game to Tribe Called Quest... from Dilla to Dre to Premier ... with ODB to Eminem to Mariah and Janet etc
he's got a song where Mary J Blidge Raps ... nikka was on gimmie the light lol Got Victory with Biggie... you can just go on forever.
Thats not even factoring in that he's probably the wildest live performer of all time. There's nobody with energy and range like that who can stand next to him, people saying Missy should commit that.
people will laugh at this but whatever... Busta is coming with Spliff too, he's got a legitimate hypeman who matches his energy. So you're fukked even if Busta messes up (when he wont)
