yall nikkas would rather stan/defend some quote Pac/Biggie made in 90-96 for 50 pages then talk bout real music shyt or actually buy albums

this is actually true..

the old heads are the worst about it, too. can't just get over the fact that the new generation is taking over so they'll just complain about upcoming rappers not bein creative or someshyt, and then complain when they try to be a little creative and don't stick to a regional sound.

they'll call something trash after "skimming" it.

they're just as bad as the younger generation.

U tellin me theres more to Big Sean than him sounding like Shenehneh on helium doing a Drake impression

Lemme find out :ohhh:

We could play this stupid game all day... you look at who's hot right now, they are almost all wack emcees scared of competition and too into the status quo to be truly creative...

But you right, its the "old heads" not keeping quiet about all this corny shyt thats the problem :rolleyes: #EAD

why not use the upped feature as a way to write a review on/rate albums/mixtapes?

The OP should be a review and rating.

There should be moderators who specifically listen to and review mixtape and albums

That would definatly get a album more (or less) listens then simply upping it and letting the artists current popularity generate interest. It would also be a way for these moderators to stand out so we know who has a good ear and who doesnt..........and who deserves to be a moderator and who doesnt. I mean, theres no reason why you cant use this position as practice or as a way to get urself writing reviews/rating albums for a mainstream media source.

Nobody would check the threads

People post new music all the time. I have posted new music a lot... if its not a name someone has heard of they won't click it. Hell I had an EP up that nobody checked for :yeshrug:

W/as much rap around as there is today its not enough to just put shyt out there... you have to convince people and sell the music, even just for a free listen. Upping threads won't do that

Thats bullshyt............

if we change this system to something where every upped thread has a review accompanied with a standard rating..............nikkas will check for shyt with a high rating.

and if it dont live up to the rating nikkas will let it be known, go back and forth with the moderator that wrote the review (hopefully about specifics of the album) and if the moderators ear is found to be lacking nikkas will demand a change.

Also, im sure your EP was wack........just like you.

I support every artist I listen to. Every track and every album, sans local mixtapes, I bough off ITunes.

That John Leged bought to come out and it's getting no buzz and from what I'm hearing from people, it's dope as hell. Grown folk music, that thread already died off into the netherlands
