Sure some of the beats are good but only good; and only some.

Lil' Wayne was part of the Cash Money Millionaires, and they coined the term BLING. He could not kill it, and then re-kill (negative) hip-hop.


Not really sure what point you are making, because you seem to support then hate on Wayne, 50 and Kanye.

----------------------------------
As for the album, it was great to hear some diversity in the sound and feeling of the tracks. Not all songs were club bangers, or street anthems, or booty tracks. A nice mix of hip-hop, and urban flare for most audiences who would say they listen to the genre.

Big props to Mr. Bangladesh for the 'A Milli' beat. I love putting the sub to max and letting the walls shake.

this shit is worse than trance.

Weezy's got pure lyrical talent.......
he does however have a lot of crap on the market...but thats a given especially when he drops a mix tape like everymonth or so.....and half the times he's drunk'n'high and just spits whateva comes to his mind.........
im a huge electronic music fan as well as hip hop and hate it when people knock hip hop as tastless or crude....the truth is most goood rappers who are able to get past the glam spit flows discussing the reality they live and experiences.....

Weeezys fiyah because he can paint a picture in your mind as you listen to him flow.........

"shooot a nukka in his thigh and legs and make him Ketch-up like May-o-naise"

not sure why the point was not clear.

I basically blamed the death of hip hop that I loved, on those 3 guys, I am well aware of Cash Money Millionaires, but more aware of the fact that initially Juvenile was the only one with real lyrical talent. The rest including Lil Wayne were just sideshows. Yeah I got that they coined the phrase and that phrase was yet another chapter in the demise of hip hop. Since those days I have heard the odd beat that I like; it will happen by chance, but the minute that almost flava flav opens his mouth the song is ruined.

oh so the point; lil wayne and his cohorts killed hip hop for me.

Nas - ****** = rap album of the year

What's happened since Weezy dropped his album re: hip hop releases and other news?

Well, for one The Game's new album L.A.X leaked online. Not only did it leak online, but that punk 50 Cent actually hosted the album on his website thisis50.com as a FREE download. As Diddy would say, that move was pure bitchassness.

And, T.I.'s newest track Swagger Like Us (which features a hook composed of a vocal sample from a popular song by MIA) leaked online. The song seems pretty big at the moment with forums full of posts about how much people are feeling it. The track features verses from Weezy, Jigga, and Kanye.

Another track by T.I., entitled Let My Beat Pound leaked as well. It features some serious vocoder effects on the vocals and was produced by renowned artist J.R. Rotem. Tune is nice in my books T.I.'s new album Paper Trail will be dropping in the beginning of the fall.

Dr. Dre's son apparently died (I never re-checked to verify).

Oh ya, apparently Eminem will be putting out his first studio album in a long time by the end of this year. Similarly, Dr. Dre is set to release Detox before 2009 arrives.

Finally, Royce Da 5'9 will be dropping Bar Exam 2 very soon. Recently his song Happy Bar Exam featuring Marv1 surfaced and it's a banger!

This is the first time I've listened to hip hop in about one month...Back to my 125bpm+ tunage

If anything, I suspect Jon Jon will be interested in (some of) these points.

woah.....

Eh yo
Queens get the money
Niggas still screaming
Paper chasing
Where presidential candidates is planning wars with other nations
Over steak with Masons
Pregnant teens give birth to intelligent gangsters
Their daddy's faceless
Play this, by your stomach
Let my words massage it and rub it
I'll be his daddy if there's nobody there to love it
Tell him his name's Nasir
Tell him how he got here
Mama was just having fun with someone above her years
Niggas is still hating
Talking that Nas done fell off with rhyming
He'd rather floss with diamonds
They pray "please God let him spit that Uzi in the army linen
That shorty doo-wop rolling oo-wop in the park reclining"
Take 27 emcee's put them in a line and they're out of alignment
My assignment since he said retirement
Hiding behind 8 Mile and The Chronic
Gets rich but dies rhyming
This is hot science
Now add 23 more from Queens to B-more
I've over their heads
Like a bulimic on a seesaw
Now that's 50 porch monkeys ate up at the same time
Nasty Nasdaq
Y'all going to bow holmes, it's Dow Jones
.80 cal chrome
Needed time alone to zone
The mack left his iPhone and his 9 at home
My queen used the milkshake to bring y'all to my slaughter houses
I do this for the group home kids in boarding houses
This is that nigga shit that's on the album
For the niggas inside the chalk line in 40 houses
Bring back Arsenio
Hip-hop was aborted
So Nas breathes life, back into the embryo
Let us make man in our image
Spit it, I'm Huey P in Louis V at the eulogy throwing Molotov for Emmit
You aint as hot as I is
All of these fake prophets are not messiahs
You don't know how high the sky is
The square milage of Earth, or what pi is
I'm the shaky hand that touched Geogre Foreman in Zaire
The same hand that punched down devils that brought down the towers

^ WHOA is right!!! Nas is absolutely surgical sometimes...
*makes note to listen to N*&^%% in its entirety*

anyway

Lil wayne has been nice for a LONG time...in spite of his annoying attempts at original flows. I really can't fault him for sounding shit sometimes considering the massive volume of verses he puts out. I don't think he says no to anyone who wants him on a track.
Have not listend to TC3 from beggining to end but heard enough tracks to know its fire.

This thread reminded me of how much I loved his verse on "hollywood Divorce" from the idlewild soundtrack

Time will tell if this album is even the best rap album of the year with T.I. dropping soon and rumours of "every fourth quarter, I like to Mike Jordan 'em"

And it's been posted before but examples of his SHITE flow is black republican spoofed hilariously by these to guys with time to kill...



*edit* Detox has been coming out for years...I actually believed it would be out in 2008 because it fit dre's pattern of a classic every 7 years....
