Why did Nelly go at KRS-One again? :krs:

[The God Poster]

Breh all due respect but what the fukk does that have to do with anything? We're talking about who won a rap battle and you're talking about his girlfriend. I have no idea who she even is.

Fred.

Dude is 15 & a virgin

 

[KnickstapeCity]

Eh.

Nelly won the battle, KRS won the war.

Nelly had a nice little 4-5 year run, now he's doing cereal commercials. His last album did like 10,000 first week.

KRS can still tour off shyt he did 25 years ago, breh.

Fred.

Where dey at tho?

If people feel Nelly made better songs it's all opinion.

But the sales angle is silly because Cube dissed Vanilla Ice on "Us" but Vanilla Ice sold 10 mill.

So....did Vanilla Ice win? Realistically could you sit there in 1991 and tell someone that, without getting laughed out of the fukking room?

Now that I really think about it, this was an important point in hip-hop.

This was the first time a sellout didn't back down and was willing to do toe to toe with a purist. After this, it was over. This symbolic win planted the seed that selling out was to be accepted. Hip-hop has been downhill ever since. No more balance, No reality checks, Just mindless music.

KRS being a delusional ass nikka thinking someone still paid attention to what he says.

Nelly is currently touring with New Kids On The Block. Let that sink in a second.

The last time I heard Nelly in the news he was getting sued because he couldn't pay his credit card bills....which is why he's touring with NKOTB.

Selling a bunch of records =/= you are rich. Ask TLC.

Fred.

A tour that has made a total gross revenue of 35 Million.
KRS is getting more money on tour than Nelly is to you?

Nah, I disagree. Hip-hop fans don't want to admit it cause krs is a pioneer but Nelly literally ended what was left of his career (which is funny considerin KRS loved to talk about havin a line about every rapper out that would end their career ) You never hear of KRS doin anything now. KRS lost because he got emotional for no reason and Nelly made him look foolish for it and if money and touring is important I'm pretty positive Nelly has got him beat there too.

With New Kids On The Block as the headliners.

It was their tour. Nelly opened for them. He's on stage 20 minutes.

That's like saying the "Fast & Furious" franchise is a success because of Luda.
Is rap seriously so far gone that opening for New Kids On The fukking Block is a win? Is that what I'm reading here?

Fred.

Nelly Won . We only remember Nelly verse on Roc The Mic out the whole battle. It pains me to say it, but KRS got washed off one verse from Nelly

Close thread

Breh if we're keeping it all the way real KRS hadn't been relevant since the mid 90's. Nelly didn't do anything to his career, his time was well past when that beef happened.

There was very little overlap between the fan bases, on top of that. Nobody who was a big Nelly fan stopped checking for KRS because of the beef.

:mjjerrylol::mjjerrylol:

He doesn't even have equal billing either, mind you.

He's doing 20 minute opening sets for a over the hill 80's boy band, and miraculously The Coli is painting it as a win.

What's sad is I said Nelly won. It's not like I'm arguing that point.

I'm just saying both of these guys are well past their prime, so it boils down to music and/or legacy. How many records Nelly sold 10 years ago....who gives a fukk? In 2015 Nelly is dancing around in Honey Nut Cheerios commercials for fukks sake. Maybe KRS runs the fry machine at Arbys....who knows? Who cares? I like songs by both artists.

Yeah, I feel ya...
No @BuddyOmar though
It is what it is - the younger nikkas are gonna feel Nelly are gonna fukk with Nelly more because I grew up in that era and I always fukked with his music
But lately his new music been straight

status though.
I still and will always respect KRS-One for what he did for Hip Hop music and the culture
And Sound of the Police is to me.
Most of these young nikkas don't know that plenty of rappers bit and still bite KRS shyt all the time
He's truly your rapper's favorite rapper and shyt
So much respect to KRS
