as tonedeff said..
Hip hop is more about politics than music.
cus its al about favoritism and helping a brother out and very very much politics...if you make a dope song with nice multies and flourishing metas with crazy flow and dont got street cred at least a lil bit your nothing..

true.Cuz ppl with actual skill get overlook'd..while others with a good background story get plenty of hype.An when u hear there cd/material..its wack.like Camron.Originally Posted by `Jammin' Jobus
Then they call intellectual rappers backpackers...
...its like rap turned into wrestling.all hype an no substance.
^so true.But what makes taht unbelieve-able is Em.
I would like to see Kool keith come back..or sumbody like Kool G rap that has street cred an still very lyrical.
or a new guy that creates his own vibe an follow's no rules or guide lines.
take it like this for instance.
put Game in a flow dissing him the whole CALI state is after your ass.
now put up someone like lets say....hmm...gillie the kid or some underground talent rapper not heard of but getting his name known a little..no one would do shit for him...

[FONT=Arial]I would say J.D. cuz he is mr.mainstream right now.
Dj Khalid is cool for his mixtapes..an his dj'n skills.But Big rankin would out do him.
ever heard of young cash?lol.
thats another example of street cred gettin more props than lyrics.
he's a nobody an moves plenty of units underground.
or plies...wack as rapper with a flow that mirrors Jeezy's ad-lib'ish style.
now why hasnt the rapper Axe mad it yet..yah'know dude from fight club a while back that won 7 str8.hes a beast with it.
or cassidy..when will he make str8 up gritty grimey shit instead of mainstream shit.
^damn I went completely off subject.
but you got groups like Dip set(pssh) vs old wu-tang.(could it be it was all so simple then.)
what changed?
it use to be..you had to hve street cred plus skills on the mic.now its all hype an flash.
ridin big rims,flexin ur ice grill..an sportin gawky chains/jewelry...ewww.
rakim-thats why he's the greatest.
Biggie-greatest
Jay-flashy but lyrical..well atleast on reasonable doubt.
andre 3000-southern lyricist.
etc.etc...
^again randomly off subject but hell who cares.reply!

Lil wayne-I would say he's the most unique one..cuz he works his boice an words his lyrics colorfully.

I like Willy the Kid<---one of the best coming out.
or Lupe fiasco...conceptual lyricist.yah heard american terrorist?
killa mike-I like his flow an wording at times.
^all got street cred an very capable of being stars.

an Pap-"what the fuck that gotta do with the mic,I analyize everything that you write,you aint nice!"
Yurp!Pz out my brother..
an X-clan's motto-To the east my brother 2 the east.Sissy!
