How can nikkas say Fab when he been relevant since the late 90's

Cuz he has spent the last half a decade dropping mixtapes instead of albums only to see the radio pick up his mixtape songs that coulda been used as album singles.

Plus he had a huge buzz he never capitalzed on in 09, yes he is still relevant but he couldve been a real star outside of NY

If its about the music, what difference does it make how it gets put out. If its about the money, I mean he's rich. He works hard to put out music and he's grinding. To be in the game this long and still getting music put on the radio is an accomplishment in itself. And its not like he putting out music just to put it out. He's been actually putting out quality music.

Tame One, not wasted, just unknown

Nah, that cat is well-known in the underground. The break-up of The Artifacts is what put his career (and El da Sensei's) on pause in the mainstream.

Anyhow, my pick is Canibus.

Lil Scrappy.... I was head over hills for him in high school...

What yo struggle plate game looking like

Charles Hamilton....

I always say he'd be what J. Cole is today if he wasn't such a druggie. Pretty much both of them filled that struggling college, normal guy rapper that Kanye vacated posted Late Registration.

Dont get me wrong breh, he's a dope fukkin rapper, but i always had a feeling that the label situation with Priority and (mostly) bad beats stopped him from fulfilling his potential.

Nah I'm saying he has a drink problem and that's caused him a lot of problems too.

I agree there was a load of issues that stopped him from reaching his true potential, a lot of those his own fault, some not. If he could've avoided just half of those problems he would've been a star he had so much talent.

some say banks, some say fab who you got?

them dudes milked their careers to the fullest and went as far as they could go.
