Slim Thug, that's my nikka but he's just ok, had a spark when he started but got rich and got lazy.

the irony of this thread, mfs basically naming EVERYONE :russ:

But i'll agree that Juelz Santana and Joey Bada$$.

But the disrespect on HOV and Styles P. Yall mfs really just naming anyone :picard:

I'm glad people are seeing right through Kendrick though. He ain't a lyricist compared to the greats, but he does have the concepts down pat. It's just that people OVER HYPE the f*ck of his lyrical ability. He's good, not NICE AF like a Nas or AZ.

Fab actually should get more praised for being as witty as hov :wow:

His first two albums, have storytelling, concious, and other stuff besides battle rhymes. He is an elite talent. He may not be the greatest SONGWRITER, but he did everything else between above average to god tier.

You bring up the "make rappers afraid" deal, but Nas declined to be on Desperados after Canibus destroyed it. Some say he was on there and took his verse off. Pun was one of the handful of people NOT afraid to rap with him. He had the biggest hype in the game in 97, had Wyclef coming off selling a ridiculous amount of records pushing and producing him, where are the big name features on his two major label albums?

He may have had dabbled in other types of songs. The execution is the issue.

When I brought up the point about making rappers afraid, I know that's one if the things Canibus gets praised for. I was making mention of Pun, an MC from the same era did that and more.

Canibus had all this hype as an "elite talent", but couldn't deliver an album made the case for him being an elite talent. Can't be elite and then not be a good song writer and ok in other areas. He was elite when he was a featured artist. When the spotlight was solely on him, it revealed his weaknesses.
