*Update* Kodak Black Insists He's better than Tupac and Biggie "they was legends cuh they died"

[Shorty K]

B.G. was too cold with it

Lol I'll give you B.G. That's 1 rapper tho...If you're going through the history of hip hop and can only find 1 or 2 rappers that are on par with what the kid put together, you gotta put some respect on the young man's name.

 

[Here Comes the Pain]

if you stop being angry and give his music a chance you'll see that Kodak is top 3 best rappers of the 2010s

his skills may not be as good as Nas or Big(he's on par with Pac) but his message and ability to paint pictures is better than theirs if we're keeping it a buck.

I've heard the music & no that nikka is not top 3 of anything.

Y'all continuously reward stupidity/mediocrity & look at where the culture is at now.

The bar is so low it's damn shame.

Biggie, nas, pac were young, but there mentality level was well beyond their age.

 

[Devilinurear]

I thought he was wrong too until he made this song



shyt as much emotion as any Pac song

This beat is wasted on him. He should have done better.

 

[LordDeathwatch]

If grown folks ages 30+ can't listen to yo rape then you ass.

:CaptainPause: Who let @Benefited back in?

 

[Cat piss martini]

we gotta excuse some of his rants.
the brotha is a crackbaby.

 

[AAKing23]

He better then them

Yall dont even listen to his music so how would you know

 

[GPBear]

his wiki describes him "Kodak Black joins other young rappers who have rejected an old-school emphasis on lyrical variety, individualism, and personal catharsis" from a New Yorker article.

You can't say you're rejecting old-school traditions, and then insist on being included in discussion with the old school

Who is he again?

I think these nikkas forget Nas was about 19 when he penned Illmatic & Big was 20/21 when we wrote RTD

Pac was 20 on 2Pacalypse Now,
Rakim was 19 when Paid in Full came out.
Q-tip "the aim is to succeed and achieve at 21"
Ice-Cube was 18 on NWA and the Posse.
Mobb Deep 19 on Juvenile Hell

Exactly the point. While Kodak is decent for this generation, he's not fuking with what those artists did at the same age. All of the artists we mentioned shifted hip hop & moved the culture in ways he couldn't imagine. Especially Rakim. He changed the entire way artists approached rap

 

[FeloniousMonk]

i know a lot of people who disagree jack

You right.

He has fans.

Im a old head.

Rakim was rapping like he was 48 years old

And take you for a walk through hell
Feed your dome then watch your eyeballs swell

Music-orientated so when hip-hop was originated
Fitted like pieces of puzzles, complicated

Also forgot that MF DOOM and SubRoc were legit like 18 and 16 when they first did their KMD shyt and of course mobb deep :mobbdap:



brehs were children rapping about not being able to grow beards, but the beats were on some jazzed out sesame street ish

Let that negro dream big man , y'all negros are hating on a youngin on the come up
