Rap Idol With P.Diddy Coming 2 Fox!
 
Low key, Fox is about to start a Rap Idol show after the Kiddie Idol shit is over with. And it will be ran by my godfather and rap mogul, Sean "P.Diddy" Combs. The winner will get signed to I think Bad Boy.

Although I feel PD is my idol and mentor, I would never sign with the guy, I don't think I would. But it's coming at it will be in different towns, most likely my hood Chicago, ofcourse New York, LA, and ATL.

What yall think about this? Yall feelin this at all? Would you participate? Leave feedback.

Yung 50 05-14-03 11:23 AM

hell yeah im there seeing as how im a hour away from my city chicago god i miss dat place anyway id sign wit puff hes one of da hottest producers around u cant go wrong wit him u just gotta prove dat u worth holdin on to alot of rappers sign contracts but den cant back up dey end of da deal dats why we never hear from dem im down and will be there......

Johnny 6-feet 05-14-03 11:25 AM

oh god......hip-hop just dropped down another notch in credibility. who the fuck would work with the guy who won?

fgee 05-14-03 11:34 AM

my thoughts exactly.........^^^^
the winner wouldn't have any cred
it would be good to watch but i wouldnt enter it

x-signals 05-14-03 11:43 AM

i hope it comes to florida please tell me it is

G. Buttersworth 05-14-03 12:32 PM

shit what ever happened to the kids from "making the band".

haven't even heard a drop from one of them kids yet.

rap idol... naw ... it will take any cred you actually have... and to sign with diddy... you got to be insane.

i rather bubble on my own, then get instant fame from some weak, cleaned up, saop rap.

Kobra 05-14-03 01:00 PM

i would participate cuz all this shit with manufactured pop would just get worse if it spread to manufactured rap n then all your credability would be outa the door

Finesse Streetz 05-14-03 01:00 PM

^^ They workin on an album right now. They still haven't found out tha name for tha group yet.

It was in XXL, like 1 month ago.

I would definately be down. PD my nicca, but he jags on contracts.

KnightShade 05-14-03 01:13 PM

i wouldn't join it, i got too much street fame down where i live, ill stick to that.

and rap idol? stupid idea really, think about it, all your gonna be is the next swollen members with ya fake shit no curse words lol it will be a big fat joke.

Finesse Streetz 05-14-03 02:37 PM

I beg to differ. I mean, if somebody makes it there, then that can't take away from your street cred.

Just cuz a nicca on tv for rap idol, then why wouldn't they be streetz anymore? Thats my question.

¤ Dºw Jºnes ¤ 05-14-03 02:48 PM

diddy will fuq it up somehow.... out of the kids he chose for makin the band.....only two of them should have made it..the others were wack an had less talent then some of the ones that did.....


I would/will watch this....but definetly wouldnt buy no Lps or nuffin

Lokinator 05-14-03 02:48 PM

Great Another 50Cent Will Be Formed... I Thought One Was Bad Enuff

...OpeY... 05-14-03 02:54 PM

... and finesse strikes again!! lol

it would be interesting to watch tho. hundreds of rap wannabes that cant cuss! that would be great. But if it's like American Idol... then they'll have to rap to other people's songs. What songs are they gonna use... Will Smith joints?

Johnny 6-feet 05-14-03 03:35 PM

^^exactly

the point of the show was for the artists to sing along to other peoples shit and rope in the audience. you think the audience is gonna be able to distinguish the ill emcees from the wack ones? no. are the emcees gonna be albe to express themselves to the fullest? not unless they think like will smith.

on top of that, hasn't p.diddy got a habit of screwing people out of money? how many SERIOUS emcees do you think are gonna enter that competition?

and finesse, if you really are a big-shot producer, how come you gotta advertise your shit in your sig? you must have a lot of time on your hands to amass 300+ posts in a matter of a few months.

X Ecution 05-14-03 05:48 PM

whens the show commin out?..............btw...puff cant rap.1

MuhThugga 05-14-03 06:56 PM

First off.....there is nothing wrong with excluding profanity from your lyrics. It doesn't make you any less of an emcee. If you seriously buy an album just because the artist says "Fuck" 26 times inside of a minute, then there is something wrong with you.

Secondly, this is going to be stupid. You'll have to rap to other people's songs and that's just plain stupid. How in the Hell are you supposed to show off your true talent rapping to other people's shit? Oh, that's great. You did a great job on copying Eminem's shit, delivery and flow and everything was perfect. You would make a dope emcee if you came out with an album of other people's songs. But you are terrible when it comes to your own stuff.
Thirdly, P. Diddy of course will more than likely be a judge, along with other idiots like Cash Money Millionaires or DMX or some other "artist" that knows all there is to know about "the game."(Why they call it "the game" but then scream out "It is not a fucking game" is beyond me. If I ever meet DMX and he refers to it as a game I'll reply, "Your move")

Who is going to watch it? Just a bunch of 14 year old wiggers who are from Bumblefuck, New Jersey and scream NY because they think they are thugs. This is going to fail miserably, but I will watch it to see what bad morons are up there and DMX saying, "Yo, you're hot, yo!"

Ice Kareem 05-14-03 07:21 PM

Who ever wins it, aint gonna get no props at all, unless they can write there own stuff

Finesse Streetz 05-14-03 09:17 PM

Nall, tha concept of tha show will be to come up with your own songs. How many artists do u know that signed a deal rapping someone else's song? No one. So why should this be any different. I'm really feeling what everybody on RB is saying. But honestly, there will be a lot of people watching it bcuz it's a good entity to invest in as a tv network on tha part of FOX. Think about it, how many of US artists complain about underground or minority music(And I mean all races) not getting any national or international shine? There's a lot. But this won't be any different from 106 and Park's Freestyle Friday and MTV's MC Battle going on this week. MCs just see it as a nationally recognized show. So what u cant curse. Rapping isn't curse. If you listen to Run-DMc, EPMD, Big Daddy Kane, and the Beastie Boys, add up tha total curse words they said, it wouldn't compare to 50's album, but they paved the way for us.

Oh, also, Johnny 6-Feet, if I was that big-time, I would still be here on tha net with niccas who are just like me. So what I sell beats, I ain't tha greatest, I'm just average. But my shit is marketable, affordable, and I have a great buzz in my region. So next time u wanna act like an asshole, go to another thread.

So What yall think?

Accelerate 05-14-03 09:38 PM

aiyo i know that if anybody had the chance, they would sign with PD because of the money. Fuck Street Cred, will that instantly get you a multimillion-dollar contract, like one from diddy? And if anything, you could use Bad Boy to blow you up, then join another label. Like the L.O.X.

Soul Theory 05-14-03 11:33 PM

shit i'd do it. then when I win I would ditch Puffy's wackass and go sign with Rawkus . . . yeh baby . . .

Accelerate 05-14-03 11:39 PM

see whut im sayin?

Soul Theory 05-14-03 11:41 PM

that's not what I meant. I mean I wouldn't sign with his wack ass in the first place. hell nah. and live the rest of my life in shame? lol fuck that. if I won i would turn down his offer is what i meant.

KnightShade 05-14-03 11:43 PM

i turned down 3 offers, i have a buisness i enjoy running.

rap idol, it could happen, but it wouldnt get you too far, sure it gets you noticed but nah i wont even re comment on it, good luck to your uncle or whatever it will be fun to watch dont get me wrong, but i wouldnt participate.

reason i turned down my offers is because i enjoy helping people instead of helping myself, i already got all the money i need, dont need more then what i got.

Accelerate 05-14-03 11:49 PM

yeah i understand that, but for people who ain't got money, ya'know they would try to get on to either get money or get recognized and then get money. either way, its for money.
like c.r.e.a.m

Accelerate 05-14-03 11:51 PM

my bad mind i thought you would get signed then leave to go to rawkus with mad money

Yung 50 05-15-03 03:19 AM

u kids talk alot of shit on dis site and half of u just suck and cant get deals so u act like u raw shit all of u know if puff came knocked on yo door contract in hand bag full of advance money and a travelin studio ud do it so stop fuckin lying and as far as cursin goes look at lil wayne he cou,dnt curse for 5 years of his career and hes one lyrically enhanced bastard he just does commercial lyrics which aint bad id do it id sign wit puff and fuck who dont like it holla..........

why did you even THINK that they'd be performing
other peoples joints? They'd obviously be writing
a joint or freestylin, one or the other...you cant give
someone a trophy for not doin there own work..

Its totally opposite from American Idol right now..this
is singing, you can find vocal range and shit from
singing someone elses song...thats opposite from what
the rap idol would do...obviously its about your lyrical
ability and flow/delivery..

why wuold u even think they'd be performing someone
elses song? Thats ridiculous

Finesse Streetz 05-15-03 11:08 AM

My point exactly. But I'd sign wit Puff in a heartbeat, but he puts cats in bad situation, I.E. 112, LOX, them niccas was in bad deals. But he'd be cool to work with no doubt.

Finesse Streetz 05-15-03 02:31 PM

Thats cool^^^ on that note. I'm going to law school to be a sports agent. I start for my bachelor's/master's in Septmeber.

Tha_Produca 05-15-03 05:32 PM

Of course it goes to the worst network but thats another story......i will probably watch this show but who knows it might just fall apart like the first time diddy did this and what ever happen with that i never heard anything about it in like since the show aired............
PEACE

Bash 05-15-03 08:38 PM

Badboy is fallin apart ,, , Puffy needs more emcees , , thats why he had Making tha Band , , and now his doing that American Idol shit ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, See ,, Badboy fallin apart , , ,Badboy has no more Emcees , , ,Hell thats why theres not one Badboy Artist Album out right now , , , , Wheres G-DEP , , wheres Blak Rob , wheres Craig Mack , Wheres Mark Curry , , wheres Kain , , damn Badboy is Falling apart , , Tha Only Artists that Badboy has right now is P.Diddy and Loon

TruthZ 05-15-03 10:54 PM

^Black rob AND kain just sucked ass...they were
destined for the gutter, it was obvious...the making
of the band shit was to hype up puff, ya know?
Loon, puff, 112, the LOX are all making noise {new
lox album out this summer}..badboy is close to top
ofthe game right now and u cant Deny that either :)

Persianplaya408 05-16-03 02:22 AM

p. diddy is pretty gey

Finesse Streetz 05-16-03 12:10 PM

I feel yall comments. Fox is the most watched stations bcuz of these reality shows. But I feel Bad Boy is just on a little hiatus. Puffy is still the richest black CEO cuz he has a label, restaurants, all type of different entities to keep money coming in when albums aren't out.

Accelerate 05-16-03 05:02 PM

P. Diddy got enough money to pay the nation of its debts lol. But even so, from the beginning people easily could tell that Bad Boy wasn't gonna be a hardcore label. Next off, P Diddy is the man who, ya mustv'e forgot , signed Biggie. Now Biggie is a legend. Don't get me wrong, I may not like puff because he sucks at rap, but if he can produce a diamond album like life after death, then, ya know, hey what the fuck. So even so, ya don't know what type of contract diddy may give you, it might be good, it might b bad, if its bad, then don't sign, its ya loss, And i respect everyone who does not want to sign with diddy, but yo, not everybody wants to have rap as a career and not make money...

Chaos 05-16-03 07:35 PM

Soul Theory 05-16-03 08:59 PM

XTC 05-16-03 10:42 PM

Fuck I hate P. Diddy
