Apr 23, 2018 I'm so ahead of my time my parents haven't met yet Always loved the Milkbone beat they used for this entire freestyle, gives the whole thing this soothing presence meanwhile theres a barage of wordplay and punches going on. If anyone hasn't seen it, there's a fantastic mini-doc on the Stretch & Bobbito show on Netflix, my Uncle used to tell me how awesome and impossible to find that station was.
Apr 24, 2018 Two trash rappers with overrated bars on an underwhelming beat. Thank god hip hop isn't still like this, so boring.
Apr 25, 2018 Man you are so right.... I question why evolution is accepted so easily in other aspects of life but not in hip-hop.. Nobody is saying we need brick phones and s-----y cell service back or dial up internet.... Why? BECAUSE WE EVOLVED PAST THAT!!!!!!!!! WE ARE BETTER OFF NOW!!!!!! This dusty a--- sleeper of a beat is a brick phone and Big L's wacm a--- teenage like angst, hatered for women and corny delivery "down ya THROAT" (zzzzzzzzzz garbage) is dial up internet. We've evolved past this. Like technology there's an occasional bump in the road (those Samsung phones that kept blowing up) in hip-hop (ringtone rap) but at the end of the tunnel we are much better for it and have made a huge progression past this bs. This is not good y'all just can't let go
Apr 25, 2018 Man you agreeing with someone who dead a--- only listens to Eminem/Tech N9ne/Hopsin/Yelawolf/Logic
Apr 25, 2018 The genre evolving says nothing for the quality of what came before. I hate the "all rap should sound exactly like stuff I already listen too" crowd as well, but it doesn't stop me appreciating the classics. Dismissing anything older than you out of hand is just as dumb for different reasons. Jay and L also didn't molest any kids, so they got that going for them.

Apr 25, 2018 I think it’s something that a lot of ppl who didn’t start listening to rap until their last high school yrs/post-high school do. Just disregard what they don’t know and be on top of whatever they do know. s----s been going on since the OF days.
Apr 25, 2018 I think some of it is just a reaction to the fact they've heard "this ain't hip hop, bring real rap back" from so many people they don't care for old rap purely out of anger.
Apr 25, 2018 True that. I used to do the same s--- when Joey Bad first popped up. The hip-hop world had so many new interesting characters around that time and hearing Joey’s music next to it was not cool at all so I was def in that “f--- this dusty a--- n-----” crowd. Not to mention all the old heads and REAL HIPHOP ONLY crowd were quick to claim him and disregard all the other interesting acts out as s---.
Apr 25, 2018 Big L pretty big with the edgelord lords yeah but still not anywhere near the level of Monster-stained RC car cringeness of those listed above
