He writes the type of lyrics that I can imagine pupils in 100 years from now analysing in school.

"I'm so much like my father, you would think that I knew him."

Teacher: "What does the poet want to tell us?"

One of M99's grandchildren: "At first you think the song is about the poet, who grew up without a father. But then it turns into the POV of Stephen Paddock (Las Vegas shooter) who not only grew up without his father, but his father was also a criminal on the Top 10 FBI's most wanted list. "I'm so much like my father, you would think that I knew him."

My friends are mostly into rap, but not me TBH... Though I like an occasional rap stint.

So we were listening some rap, and I wanted to blast some tunes and I came here to find some stuff.

I played a couple of songs from the previous page since I was reading your reviews you guys wrote, and the gayest bars and beats started coming out.

WTF

Finally listened to the entire Eminem album. Wow.

I thought Rap was dead. This is the best stuff I've listened to in years, no hyperbole.

There's still lots of pure rappers out there you probably just don't listen to them, like Nas, Black Thought, Jay Rock, Royce Da 5'9, etc etc even Kendrick Lanar and J. Cole even though they experiment more with other sounds/pop sounds but they still spit bars.

by Myesyats Wed Jan 22, 2020 10:10 pm

Not a fan of Nas, Lamar and Royce, Jay Rock is decent, don't know Black Thought

J. Cole is pretty good I'll admit. I like him and Jay Rock but not like crazy about them.

But this Eminem album kills. I fucks with every single track on it which never happens

a matter of preference i suppose

Same. Start to finish was great, not any track I disliked listening to all the way through.

How the hell this didn't get released?

Imagine thinking there is anyone better in the game lol

by M99 Mon Mar 02, 2020 8:41 am

There are people better in the game but they don't bust out tunes every 4 months. Quality over quantity :coffee:

I do love this video though.

by Warrior Tue Mar 03, 2020 11:10 am

Good lyricism

But i'd swear every rapper has the same voice and same flow nowadays

Well what can you say. It's been fifteen years since Dirty died and 25 years since we could witness him at his best

how am I supposed to be loving any of the nowadays stuff? I try but I can't.

by Warrior Fri Mar 06, 2020 5:12 pm

Same man, old school til i die, the rap of decade 2010s is gay af

Funny you post that, last night while driving my truck around town i listen to Snakes from the same album. Doesn't get any grimier than that.

by Warrior Fri Mar 06, 2020 5:18 pm

Like ffs they don't make flows like this anymore

Only auto tune bs with crap bass

I posted Snakes first (that low volume soul sample is etched into my brain forever lol), but I changed into one with a longer ODB rap part.
Also the production on this album is so unbelievably good. Absolutely unique, amazing

All that's left to point out that 90s rap actually isn't old school

back then it was the new school lmao

by Warrior Fri Mar 06, 2020 5:29 pm

For me it is Laughing

i was born 1994, discovered rap through Mobb Deep at like 12-13 years old, then the gangsta rap later

can't say it reminds me of the good ol days, it just sounds better

i love the 90s-early 2000s stuff mostly

by Warrior Fri Mar 06, 2020 5:33 pm

the guy at 0:40 in What's Next sounds like the crazy dudes from Onyx Laughing

great flow
