:D

Van Ished 03-11-03 09:27 PM

The clipse are..........well let's put it like this: they have followers now so they're overrated.

I thought Grindin was shit, The last time I jus liked the beat, & Ma I don't Luv Her is jus gay, the only thing I really like on their cd is the Selector Remix of Grindin, but oh damn, they aren't even rappin on that song.....

It's a lot of yall niccas yapping saying 50 is just nice. Fuck that!! 50 is tha hottest now and will be all year. If you look at it statistically, 50 will be around for a long ass time. When a rapper goes 3xs platinum in like 1 month, he will be around for a while. A long while. Example, Nelly(Overrated). He sold 8 million copies of Country Grammar, 2 million with Free City, and I believe about 5 million of Nellyville. He never changed styles, but kept his record sales.

50 is tha next biggest thing. I honestly believe that in about 5 years there will be no more JayZ, Nelly, Ja Fool, anybody. Even Em will have to share his space. 50 is like tha next Pac, I hate to say it too. I think if 50 stays focused, he will be bigger than Pac and Biggie(Tha Greatest). I give 50 atleast 5 years in tha game.

Now overrated, ofcourse Nelly, B.G., Ja Fool, and some other lame niccas. But Cannibus? Ha, he's not even rated. That bitch ass scrub of a rapper. I heard his album sales match tha number of chances Saddam Hussein has in beating tha US in a war. About 0!!!!!!

Finesse Streetz 03-12-03 12:31 AM

If you admire a rapper, does that necessarily make you a dickryder?

Bishman 03-12-03 07:58 PM

To ecklipse HOw the fuck is DMX overated?
To amend incase u 4got eminem was underground? hes a battle mc.
Overated MCs

Ja Fool - pop
Nelly - pop
Jay - Z - not in early days of career- Reasonable Doubt Jay-z was the best, he got 2 hollywood

Bishman 03-12-03 08:03 PM

Clipse have good beats, coz its neptunes.
But they remind me of mase and fabolous. They have no emotion. 2pac had emotion, u knew if it was diss record by the tone of his voice or i cant think of the word but if u compare brendas got a baby to hit em up u know wot i mean

Jeriko 03-12-03 08:21 PM

Nelly's overated, and his country gramma is lyrics are lame

N-Demik 03-14-03 05:17 PM

Aesop Rock Overated....LoL

If You Could Get Around Every Angle Hes Hitting You With You Wouldn't Be Saying That, Hes Tha Voice Of Tha UG

50 Cent Couldn't Be Anymore Over-Rated, He May Aswel Slap A 5 Star Sign On His Jock.... Hes Got So Many People Jumping On And Off Of It..

I Have No Idea How He Sold So Much, Dayum Its Beyond Criminal

Sage Francis is the most underrated rapper of today. The amount of talent he's got, and some of the music he's made is at times mind blowing...

and i'd say he is the voice of the underground...if anyone is...but i don't see it like that...

...

N-Demik 03-14-03 06:30 PM

Yea True, But Aesop And Sage Both Revolutionised Tha Sound Of Tha Underground, Both Have Equal Abilities In My Mind, Although They Do Create Tracks Differently And Write From Different Points Of View..Both Are Slept On For Tha Sound Of Their Flow And Delivery...LoL Craziness

Jstylez 03-14-03 09:18 PM

Canibus is not over-rated...well not the OLD canibus....

sumbody said eminem new style aint all that and they like his old style better....i agree...he on some basic shit now...he rythmin ever 5 words in his verses( did yall notice that )....

Ja-FOOL

dynaz-t 03-15-03 10:16 AM

Emotion 03-16-03 05:02 AM

nelly

Emotion 03-16-03 05:02 AM

also ja rule and nelly
and nas

Finesse Streetz 03-16-03 10:58 PM

Tha Clipse is tha shit. Some of yall haven't lived tha life they're talking about so it doesn't appeal to you. Behind Dre, Neptunes got this shit on lock. If u want a top ten single, go to Dre or tha Neptunes. Also my godfather P.Diddy.

Tha Clipse talk about cocaine and other drugs being distributed in their state. Most of yall ain't never even seen a triple beam or got your hands greasy from packing coke with plastic and vaseline. Thats why cats on net sites don't like that. They tend to stick to things more close to "hip hop" not regular everyday commercialized rap. Hip Hop and rap are 2 different things. 2 different styles. Don't say tha Clipse is whack bcuz u can't appeal to it.

Finesse Streetz 03-16-03 10:59 PM

And tha Neptunes make beats tha makes your voice come out. If you know anything thing about a song format or if you worked with singers, u have to produce tracks that makes tha artists voice stand out. They have perfected that.

Av1r3x 03-18-03 06:17 PM

^^^to tha 1 who thinks we're all drug-illiterate
I stay away from dat sh!t,cuz it does nuttn but bring u down and belive me I KNOW.Folks brag about dat shit like its good or sumthin."o im from tha hood so i gotta be like dis or dat".Bein from tha low-class part of town doesnt make or break u,thas YOUR choice.

To break it down Clipse r over-rated cuz they have 1-track minds.Dat shit iz played out,thas y they're over-rated cuz we heard dat same topic 50x1000000000000 times yet they get mad credit.

SeeKret 03-20-03 05:01 PM

i cant agree with eminem being overrated. that mutha fucker rhymes shit that dont rhyme. you realize this??

Kkooly66 03-20-03 07:20 PM

Aybody is overrated man...any artist that catches epople by surprise...50 cent was quiet for a while and bounced back thats why he is overrated and idk if anyoen else sees it but Eminem is overrated too

Tha Linez Drawn 03-22-03 01:56 AM

Hay I dunno who's overrated but here's some who's underrated:
Pharoah Monch, EL-P, Mos Def, Talib Qwali, Black Thought, Jedi Mind Tricks, Guru, Eve,


Nas is overrated: I loved Illmatic--Best hip-hop album By far...but tooo short/ afta that he's been hit an' miss in my book. He did not live up to my expectations. He was supposed to be the second Rakim. But couldn't hold this title steady.

Kobra 03-22-03 07:04 AM

50 cent is overrated by miles people act like hes gonna be the next pac or somethin he aint p.diddy is overrated i mean hes absolutly shit n hes still rappin

Nelly, 50 cent and Lil' Kim

TeraRhymes 03-24-03 03:33 PM

hmmm
 
I agree most commercial rappers are over-rated but yall gotta understand, its all bout the paper, they got too caught up with that shit Like Nas as you lsitened to his albums with every new onoe he puts out he talks more and more bput money cars n shit, its funny what money can do to u, so they all do this for moneyl, like im sure everyone of us will do, dont get me wrong there is rappers out there that arent all bout money, but with commercial rap i can say bout 95% are all about it, see who can make more money

my 2 cents

2hype2Bwhyte 03-24-03 03:52 PM

how can aesop be over rated? he's underground, only commercial peoples can be overated. if anything, aesop rock is under rated. i don't think 50 is overrated b/c he come along way in this game, and now everyone just wants to hate. get off his nuts. as for the my list of overrated ppl......

Eminem
Necro

^How the fuck is Canibus overated? If anything he's underated. Canibus is dope as fuck but doesn't get the recognition in mainstream hip hop that he deserves. If you mean he doesn't deserve his underground reputation then i would have to disagree again

he gots a fucked up voice and he is strictly a battle MC he cant write rhymes for shit and when he does write they sound like battles.


how the hell can you say that if Canibus wrote a non-battle battle it would still sound like a battle? have you ever heard "I Honor U"? that aint no battle track dogg. Ain't NO WAY Canibus is overrated, he ain't even rated as mainstream no matter how nasty he gets. He needs more recognition
