Jan 13, 2015 Overrated Future - Don't understand a single word this dude says when he raps. Jay-Z - After Reasonable Doubt, I feel like the rest of his material was sub-par. Kanye West - Lets be honest, Yeezus was TRASH. Nicki Minaj - Do I really need to explain this one? Eminem - I love Em, but after TES, it's been bad. Snoop Dogg - After he changed his name to Snoop Lion & released that album? Yeah..... Wiz Khalifa - I liked Wiz till Rolling Papers, but now his songs are just whack... 2 Chainz - If The Grammy's had an award for "dumbest lyrics," 2 Chainz will win it every year. Macklemore - Came out with an O. K. album, but winning over Kendrick on album of the year? LOL Rick Ross - Can't stand his music. Young Thug - Annoying voice, stupid lyrics, dope beats.....pretty much describes this generation of artists. Kid Ink - He was dope in his mixtape days as he started getting some shine, been too mainstream ever since he dropped "Show Me" & his style seemed to have changed a bit. YG: Majority of his tracks are bangers, but the lyrics are just so plain & dull. Don't see what's all the hype with YG.....Mustard's production is what got it done. Underrated King Los - Very dope artist, should be more recognized imo. Crooked I - I always felt Crooked deserved a bigger spotlight, his lyrics always sound the best compared to the rest of the Slaughterhouse crew. Logic - His recent album was dope, you're stupid if you don't agree. Bishop Lamont - His lyrics combined with the beats he chose were always on point. He could of been big. Chamillionaire - Cham used to make hit records, but now he releases songs here & there, but the dude still got it. Stalley - Better than Rick Ross & all of MMG. Very underrated. Dizzy Wright - The Golden Age was one of the best mixtapes that dropped in 2013. Lloyd Banks: Cold Corner 3, F.N.O were quality mixtapes & his past 3 albums are pretty underrated. As of right now, this is how I see it. I'm probably missing one or two, but that's all that comes in mind at the moment. I'm a fan of some of the artists I mentioned as overrated so don't take it up the a---.
Jan 13, 2015 Love Chamillionaire as well but stopped reading the overrated ones after seeing 'the rest of jayz albums are sub par'. And how is Kanye overrated because Yeezus was trash? It is my least favourite Kanye album by far (still good tho) but the rest of his albums makes him more underrated by a lot of people than overrated
Jan 13, 2015 "Nas is the only rapper to simultaneously maintain underdog AND goat status for 20 years" - Big Ghost
Jan 13, 2015 i would add lil wayne to the list of overrated. Dedication 3 mixtape and Tha Carter 3 were pretty dope but other than that i don't see why so many people like him. Totally agree with Dizzy Wright being underated. He should have his own sub forum on here tbh.
Jan 13, 2015 @K18 I was thinking about adding Wayne on the list, but he dropped a couple dope tracks last year & killed em all, especially 'Believe Me'.
Jan 13, 2015 that is true. i've liked everything from the new album that he has put out other than the song he performed at the Vma's
Jan 13, 2015 Lol at logic being underrated. Dudes a f---in fraud who bites off k dots and drakes styles far too much
Jan 13, 2015 So a couple of tracks make a difference for an artist to be overrated or not? Not trying to offend you here but that doesn't really make sense considering how much music he put out his carreer. Don't think he's overrated though, some of his mixtapes, c2,c3 (and the c3 sessions) and parts of c4 are pretty great
Jan 13, 2015 I'd add wayne to overrated and b.o.b. to under btw if em's next album is full of s--- like gof and fine line it will be better than the eminem show. and that's not an easy thing to say
Jan 13, 2015 lol @ all of this. The only thing I agree with is that Wiz was, at one point, overrated. Never really liked him much. Dizzy Wright f---ing sucks.
Jan 13, 2015 Overrated - YG, Wiz,Wayne,Dizzy WrightUnderrated - Chamillionaire, Rittz, Bishop Lamont, Masai & Ra the rugged man
Jan 13, 2015 Wayne was really overrated, but those tracks that dropped last year made me think twice about it because he absolutely killed it. I'm not a fan of his either, but that's just what I think.
Jan 14, 2015 Lloyd Banks has to go down as underrated. He has a huge catalog of mixtapes that I'd say are better than most artists' albums.
