What Ever Happen To Murphy Lee? Dude ACTUALLY Had Next :wow:

[h2o_proof]

I like Ali better

What!? Ali's "Heavy Starch" is literally the worst album EVER put out by an artist with a record deal...EVER!!

As for Murphy Lee, yes he had tons of charisma and was spitting catchy lines and indeed was on track to become a major player, but he got caught up in a few whirlwinds that were too strong for his little ass. First they was trying to market him to the ladies, which was dumb, but in the process people got fukked over. Like literally weeks before all that shyt went down with 3LW he was supposed to do a song with Naturi and that was gonna be his "vehicle". When word got back to Naturi about the process, turns out they were trying to pimp her out and it was supposed to be more than just a song , both camps were trying to make them an item and force them onto each other and she wasn't down for all that...fukkery ensues and we all remember what happens to 3LW next. Also I think Murphy Lee was another victim of what was to become "superstar" Lil Wayne. Wayne was literally sucking the soul out of all the artists in his demographic en route to becoming who he was. Everybody remembers Gillie but people forget Wayne and Murphy were super tight. Wayne was the only outside guest on Country Grammar and was opening up for Nelly on tour, which mysteriously turned into the Nelly/Cash Money tour . Personally I think Murph was a one trick pony, but Wayne definitely took that one trick and added it to his repertoire with a quickness.

What happened to the dude who never rapped but wore the mask in st lunatics is what we really wanna know he had all the shows hyped told nelly he didnt need to rap his stage presence alone had the fans

He ended up trying to sue Nelly for money.

A lot of white bytches bought any album that sold multi Millions.


Nelly was dope and had hit records. Anybody frontin like they wasn't fukkin with nelly was either a kid or a lame who wasnt out in the world.

Nelly was definitely not dope. When did I say he didn't have hit records? I think he went damn near diamond with that album, he was arguably the biggest name in hip hop for a run.

I was a freshmen/sophomore in college when country grammar was poppin...yeah that shyt was everywhere at every party. And that album has a few decent songs like I said...but I wasn't putting it in my collection.

Andale andale mama EI EI uh ohhhhhh

What kinda man would sing those lyrics?

nah, Murphy Lee was supposed to be the next breakout from St. Lunatics. He had swag, could spit, the ladies loved him, plus he left memorable verses on his features.

I liked dude...Chingy went 3x platinum and he couldn't rap like Murphy so you gotta wonder what happened there



That Roc the Mic Remix with Nelly and Murph was

Great post. Wayne really knows how to soak up game.

I think Nelly was brilliant and doesn't get enough props. That first album has some of the greatest pop rap singles of all time. I remember when "Ride Wit Me" came out. It sounded so fukking different from anything that was out. You knew it was pop off-top, but it was DOPE. When Nelly says he sold a gazillion records without cosigns, I believe him. That shyt came outta nowhere.

The album Country Grammar was complete trash outside of the 4 main singles. Nellyville had a few hot joints too.

He lost me with that Sweat/Suit shyt. To this day I haven't heard those albums. The singles were

shyt still bangs

Just another example of how low the bar has gotten. When this came out, I thought this was straight trash. not trash in the "unlistenable/can't party to this" sense that I get with 99% of stuff now, but trash in the sense that it was catchy, fun semi-lazy fluff that I didn't mind partying to (though there were better party songs at the time). Now it sounds better than most shyt

same here...its funny to me that snap music made them obsolete

Meh, I liked Ali's rapping voice/flow better than Murphy Lee's i actually never listened to Ali's album though outside of two songs. Murphy Lee's album was pretty bland too outside of the singles. I did feel like Murphy Lee had next, so the rest of your post pretty much answers why he wasn't. i had never heard about any of that. Just figured Nelly was the lead dog, so everybody hopped aboard.

Nah I feel you, I liked Ali too...which is why I was so hurt that he put out the whackest LP in Western Civilization. Dog, it was that bad.

I actually saw Nelly in concert a couple weeks back (it was a Wednesday night ) and he started his set off with all of those classics, the whole place was popping.

As soon as he went past that Nellyville era though you could feel the energy decrease, all his new EDM shyt is terrible.

I liked City Spud better than all them nikkaz

I had been trying to figure out what Slo Down's purpose was for the longest spent all that time in the group and never even did an ad-lib. He was living the life.
