Why are Too Short, E-40, or dj Quik considered legends?

[Still Benefited]

Life Is...Too Short is the fifth studio album by Too Short. It was released in 1989 on Jive/RCA Records, although it appeared as a Dangerous Music/RCA Records release until Jive Records logos appeared on the release on October 25, 1990, after it became successful. It is currently his highest-selling album to date, being certified double platinum by the RIAA for sales of over 2 million copies. "

Nobody really considers these nikkas legends b

thats no disrepect but they not on that level in my mind. Too short is corny and old as fukk to me and E-40 just that nikka. I am not too schooled on quik but he a underground legend to some nikkas

This is a "first post Ether + everyone else shytting on the troll OP" kind of thread.

Quick & Short are legends IMO you can make a case for 40 but he is more regional than Too Short because his style is very unique so it takes more for people to get into him rather than just hearing Short Dog rap about blowjobs & sex tales over booming beats. i did hear a story recently about Short back in the day in his first show in NY (or the east at least), people didn't know what to think because the beats were so different to what was poppin back then in NY (and hip hop in general)

 

[shopthatwrecks]

no classic albums..
no multi platinum albums..
i cant name one single from any of them
no club bangers
no verses i can remember..
no label
no clothing company (plus none of them can dress for shyt)

what have these nikkas accomplished in the game? honestly brehs

why do these cali nikkas stay getting the "legend" title branded on them without doiing anything relevant in their 20 years of rap existence..that cali kush really must be strong out there

u gotta be

E-40's "Function" song got play on 106 and the radio here in NC just last year.
Too Short's tracks with Lil Jon still get the hoes twerkn in the club.
Quik has been low-key but he still has gold plaques, somethin the FagGod will never see>>>>
