heres the link http://www.mtv.com/bands/h/hip_hop_...es/index2.jhtml |
OMG NOT BIG PUN NIGGA!!!!!!!! ..... son
|
MTV doesn't know shit about anything, look at who's videos they play and who's videos they don't play...but to me, it's not about Big Pun not being as good, LL cool J has had a consistent careerand been commercially successful each time he has come out with an album...lyrically he's pretty much "nothing" far as I'm concerned but in the grand scheme of things he probably is all-around one of the best "rappers" ever, he's just not a great "lyriccist" so they are at least somewhat correct besides, this is a commercial source you can't take what they say as the Hip Hop gospel |
Quote:
exactly...i think they just rank things like this on success and shit.if we was talkin lyrically then it would be a different list completely. |
They got KRS, Rakim and Big Daddy Kane. If they put Kool G Rap in it, that'd be the 4 original rappers that fathered everybody's style, I don't care WHO you are.
Pun is in the Honorable mentions. BTW LL over the last 10 years has been horrendously wack but LL in the 80's was like Jay Z is today. He battled all the legends at the time too, and EEVEERRRRRYYYYbody was bumpin his shit coast to coast. And Pun is beyond that? Nah man, you gotta pay respects. |
Quote:
yeah that exaclty why they dont know shit |
Quote:
you forgot slick rick but yeah i just have a problem wit them picking ll cool j over big pun he was one of the greats |
Quote:
yeah when they even said that jay-z bit nas' style |
WARNING: This list has nothing to do with sales!!!
if it did, Rakim wouldnt' be on it, nor would Nas, or KRS. |
Quote:
but why are the top 3 all selling machines |
Quote:
^^Where's it say who the top 3 is? That list goes up to 4th. |
Quote:
but we all know who the top 3 are gonna be jay-z biggie tupac |
Quote:
you never know son. It's likely as hell, but even still that could be due to their sheer influence in the "rap" industry, not record sales. If it were based on Sales, 50 would be kicking either pac, jay, or bigge out of that list, and we all know that ain't happening. With a low-selling artist like Rakim as 4th, anything's possible. |
Quote:
actually 50 be in 2nd place pac be in first....yea i know how 50 sold 11 million copies of get rich or die trying just by itself... but really 2pac holds the record as the greatest selling hip hop figure of all time...if he was alive today he'd be the richest rapper living..unless that take away the influence his death made :( |
Quote:
^^I put money on it 50's not on that list, not 3rd, second or 1st. |
Quote:
50 cent has not sold more records than tupac or biggie or jayz |
Word, the list isn't that bad.
10. LL 9. Em 8. Ice Cube 7. Big Daddy Kane 6. KRS 1 5. Nas 4. Rakim Not that bad of a list in my opinion. |
Quote:
well lets see, GRODT broke the record for most albums sold in a single week, then released The Massacre and still sold 1.1 mil in the first week. What other rapper did that back to back EVER? This still isn't counting all the record G-Unit as a whole sold. cmon man, you gotta pay this man his respects, hate it or love it ;) |
big pun and ll would be a toss up...dont underestimate ll ...he is fuckin SICK when he tries...he merked cannibus..nuff rappers that underestimated him....hes just tryin ot get money so hes on that wack mainstream shit..my uncle is an mc and opens up concerts he told me about LL
|
Quote:
yeah but his sales droped grodt 11 mil massacre 4 mil thats 15 mil while jayz ,big and tupac have double that or more |
Quote:
he did not murk cannabis are u on crack |
I will give 50 cent props on selling so much bullshit.
Somehow he got people to buy the shit he calls music. |
Quote:
who's talkin about gross sales? I'm talking about initial sales. What other rapper beat his? nobody. He set the record, then broke it with the next release. that = never happened in hip hop ever. |
People have differnet thoughts.
Mainstream LLcooj > Pun. Who effected hiphop more? LLcoolJ hands down. Pun was just a lyricst who's fav came when he died. |
Quote:
Didnt LL battle canibus and win? He was on the same level as him, or almost on the same level as him. |
LL Cool J can beat whoever he wants to in a battle but does he come with hard lyricism on his CDs when someone's NOT trash talking him like Cannibus was? I highly doubt it...LL is not lyrically consistent therefore he's a rapper, not a lyricist...just My opinion |
Quote:
yeah i thought you meant alltime records eminem owns any rapper and biggie rank in 3rd i think chuck D is gonna be on the list |
Quote:
your right tupac is but eminem is the highest selling rapper alive |
Quote:
No. Pdiddy group BadBoy is the bigest. Pdiddy is the richest rapper. althouhg 50cent is climbing up. |
Quote:
are u retarded p diddy does even right his own shit and for your info he only made money cause he had around 80%of control bad boy when big died life after death has sold 10.5 mil to date do the math son 10,500,000 x 15 x .80 = how much he made off big since big was dead he got no portion of what he was intitled to |
fuck diddy dude is staright gay
|
Quote:
Why the fuck are you calling me a retard? I said Pdiddy was the highest paying fucking rapper. the richest. |
Jigga is richer than Diddy last I heard...320 mil.
|
mtv jus gets facts a lil twisted thats all.

Quote:
Dude .......SOOO the fuck what? Most hip hop heads dont know shit about hip hop themselves... Why would you expect a teeny bopper tv station to have any idea... |
they said jay z was the best rapper ever
