what would a top 5 list in 1994 look like?

[JYoung24]

nowadays, a 30-year old is considered a young rapper. just goes to show how dumbed-down everything is now.

and yea, its crazy looking back. run dmc were still in their 20s as well at this point, and they were the epitomy of an old school group still kickin.

kane was looking & even dressing like one of my assistant coaches around that time.......and that dude had grandkids.





THATS THE WHOLE POINT, DIKKHEAD.

yousa dippy ass bamma.







by singles artists, I'm saying he had yet to drop a noteworthy album.

I'm not saying that hes only good for hits and no album cuts, or anything like that.

illmatic was indeed a big deal when it dropped. it just wasn't a commercial affair.

Lmao word im hearing people talk about kendrick cole and drake. and wale calling them kids and shyt when there all in there 30's

​

apparently, youre the one that lived thru media. not me,
I never cared what a magazine said. not to mention, I didn't even know illmatic got 5 mics until later on.

I knew what illmatic meant in real-time because I experienced the chit. the disconnect stems from the fact that you live in bumblef*ck iowa.

you up here worried about somebody's age, but youre the one in here trying to pass 2pac off as a top 5 rapper in '94.

i said pac makes a better argument than nas,WHICH HE DOES.
Ilmatic was a big deal,how so?
When i said pac albums werent "running the streets",i meant he wasnt #1 on the streets. Which is the honest truth. But he was hot on the streets. Which is one of the reasons,a young man in Texas let off on a cop.
And yet and still you cant provide any new standard that nas brought,cause he brought nothing.
We all know the rap game didnt lean towards nas following 1994,it leaned toward biggie.

So what did nas change? Nothing.
Anyone can say this album meant this or that but you can't back it up with anything like i said cause you're just a nerd reading a script. You dont remember shyt.
You're brainwashed,you the type of nikka to think NY state of mind had the hood going crazy outside the east,naw,didnt happen.

You mad foolish breh.

Because he stated a simple fact: Lisa was just better than them.

All of them.

It was a foregone conclusion, I dunno how yall cats coulda heard her verses from TLC Tip and NOT thought she was on another level compared to these females rappers. I don't care if she was "part time" or not.

Talent is talent.

I guess yall needed to hear her right next to them a year later before it finally slapped yall in the face.




GOTDAMMM!!! How yall let a SINGER fukk yall up THAT bad?!!

Yall wanna call her a "part time" rapper not realizing that makes yall look that much worse. She set the standard wayyyy too high.

Literally everything about this verse shyts all over the rest of the song. If she went 1st, it'd basically be a Wu Tang Triumph situation

Then Lyte's lil 2 sec verse hit right after lol..


She came lyte alright.. Hey, you already forgot breh? I saw you in the stands in 95

I dont know if you're related to left eye,but you're bugging.
She was never fukking with lyte and THAT was never even a conversation.

You're either a mad stan or you didn't hear that song..

Or both. If I was Lyte stan, I'd be afraid to listen too

Speaking of "conversation" take yo ass into the comments section and see everyone talking about how Left Eye killed that track.

nikka that's one song.
Lyte has multiple classic songs of her own (not no group shyt)
Away from tlc,left eye did nothing worth talking about.
I love left eye,love tlc,but nikka please

Lisa was more popular than Lyte. And she was a better rapper. Miss me with the whiny "one song" shyt, stan, Lyte got bodied literally right after Lisa went. They all had time to write and deliver, it wasn't no impromptu performance.

I don't like Lisa only because of her songs. I like her because we share the same spirituality and character.. Her unintentionally clowning all yall favorite rappers is just a perk.

You claim you "love" Left Eye.. Every black man on Earth says that, it's tired breh. And yet you know nothing she's done.. "Nikka please" right back at you.

I do love left eye,i was greatly anticipating what she was gonna do when she got with suge,which end up being nothing.
I've heard her unreleased album,nothing about showed she was seeing the lyte.
She's a shoulda coulda woulda femcee,sorry

I think OP means what people considered top 5 GOATs of all time during that time. Snoop and pac were still roughly new in 1994

You ain't a fan bruh, she doesn't need your flip flopping ass

N.I.N.A. had one song leaked.

She only test recorded two and she only had lyrics penned for the others.. She wasn't even sure about going through with the album since she stopped liking Suge.. He was breaching his contract with her. To say she "wasn't seeing Lyte" based on a scrapped album shows you ain't like her anyway


And she's infinitely more known today than Lyte despite not releasing anything for damn near 20 years, stop acting like you loved her. She damn sure ain't like your breed.. Just admit you thought she had some hot verses but couldn't touch Lyte, no need to be acting fake for my sake.



Edit: Now if you mean Supernova was bad? Then u a cac

Ice cube makes a better argument than everyone aside from LL.

not really...considering, rakim was the universal goat before biggie and pac died and oldschool/first generation hiphop heads always mentioned melle mel or caz as the goats.

No he wasn't, he was just another washed up East coast nikka living off his eighties acclaim.
Cube had put out straight fire from SOC to lethal injection. Rakim was done as was the rest besides LL. THEY WERE respected but cube was running shyt along with deathrow and PAC was putting it down headed to the top. Luckily puff and biggie saved the East
