LIKE I SAID, youre just programmed to disregard anything that isnt presented to you by a record company. and that chit is corny.
For me, it has more to do with being :flabbynsick:and stuck in my ways. :yeshrug:
I know we've had this exact conversation before about classic mixtapes (I think I asked you which mixtape was the "Illmatic" of mixtapes).

The Wu signing a group deal that allowed the artists to sign solo deals with other labels was unheard of back then in any form of music. Without that you think Dipset would be able to sign the type of deal they did where it was a label yes but they functioned more as a group. Remember they were signed as a group to the Roc. The label came under Koch. Another thing about the Wu is that they themselves said all the solo albums were really group albums that featured one member. It was their strategy of divide and conquer.

Back to Writer and T.I. As an MC I like Writer better but Im trying to be as objective as possible and I wouldn't feel right if Im trying to figure out who the GOAT MC is and I pick Writer over TI. Writer is nice but he's no different than Papoose, Uncle Murda, or Red Café. All these nikkas have bars and a gang of mixtapes but whats the music like when the pressure is on? I like Currensy more than Slick Rick personally. But I also like Melo more than Kobe. Some shyt just aint up for debate


what does the bolded even mean? youre just repeating the same tired rhetoric. writer has TRACKS. not freestyles. IM TALKING TRACKS. if he didnt, then he wouldnt be in this tournament unless he was some OG pioneer. and he has more classic tracks than tip and better overall releases than tip.

they had diplomat records before signing to the roc, and only 4 of them were signed as a "group". juelz and of course camron had solo deal. zeek wasnt rapping and dame didnt want to sign jones to a solo deal. so please explain again how this was dipset benefitting from wutang.

youre right, some things just arent for debate. FOR THE LAST TIME, i only voted currensy because i didnt want him to get shut out with no votes. what part dont you get!!!??
