Eminem funny, but Bizarre? That fool got me puking from laughter! Man, Bizarre, hahahahaha, that guy got me dying of laughter, Eminem is hella funny too, I luv 2 listen 2 silly sh# sometimes, if I wanna get pissed or feel thugish, I listen to Yukmouth
If I wanna get hyphy, I listen to Mac Dre, Mistah FAB, Keak Da Sneak, and otha Yay Area stuff

DMX is funny/crazy at the same time, the combo makes for a good listening experience, his hotheaded rhymes are cool

X-raided, Brotha Lynch Hung and C-bo are very good rappers, and so is Tech N9ne and Luni Coleone, West Coast rap is da best rap out there

yea bizzare is a funny dude but hes hard to listen to cause of his low skill level

Are there no more rap fanatics within the ATS/BTS halls of fame?

I just heard a new Common joint on XM, and it was SICK! His new album will further reinforce why he is so nice with the mic.

Speak yo mind.

Yes Biz is definitely funny, but I could rhyme better than him after a 12 pack. His flow is horrible, and his rhymes are the only thing that saves him...if that.

Now Eminem, Slim Shady album, now that is funny, and the rhymes are impeccable. Marshall needs to revert to his alter-ego ASAP.

His last 2 albums have been pretty lackluster if you ask me.

Favorite? hmm thats hard.

Abdomnial is really bad ass, just haven't heard that much of his stuff, do like D-LOC from KMK, umm Tech N9ne and Ludacris, and Lil Flip and Project Pat, with some Mike Jones chea!!!!!




least favorite is easy.

ICP and any spin off group that comes from them.

hmm I hate that fergie chick if that counts.







[edit on 18-5-2007 by Lysergic]

Sticky Fingaz, DMX, Redman, Ludacris i forgot to metion plus i hate people with no skills like J-Kwon, Young Turk and sorry to say it for all the fans of him but Tony Yayo sucksssssss in my opinion.

Hmm good topic but to name just one of each is very hard. My favourite rapper of all time is method man, loved him from the second I heard him.

Worst rapper and I am shocked of no mention of this guy 50 CENT!!!
this guy is a complete joke. He mumbles out his repetitive lyrics about how rich and successful he is in ever single song. And then he will have his g-unit buddys come along and mumble there lyrics too. Not to mention the only way he can sell albums is ofcourse by creating beefs.

I also have to give a mention to the dirty south (sorry south fans) I love groups like outkast and dungeon family and affiliates and even chamillionaire. But the majority of the stuff coming out of there sounds EXACTLY the same. I mean when I hear a song for the first time at a party or whatever I can instantly tell its souther rap but telling what southern rapper it is is harder because of the likeness to each other.


If I want to listen to rhymes: Jedi Mind Tricks / Ra The Rugged Man
If I want to listen to thoughts: Sabac Red / Poetic from gravediggaz RIP
If I want to get pissed: Bone Thugz / Wu-Tang
If I want to relax: Bizzie Bone / Krayzie Bone and some Cypress Hill
If I want to reminisce: Gravediggaz
If I want to laugh: Necro (or as he says the master of sick bastards) and ofcourse Ol' Dirty

If I want to listen to rhymes: Mars Ill, Madlib, Eminem
If I want to listen to thoughts: 2Pac, Quasimodo
If I want to get pissed: Onyx
If I want to relax: Madlib, Mos Def
If I want to reminisce: Wu-Tang
If I want to laugh: Slick Rick, Jurassic 5

There are really to many to place them like that, anyways thats how I roll..

Peace.

All rappers from all countries are my least favorite. I'm a hard core rocker in case you haven't noticed and we hate rap :bash:

[edit on 30-5-2007 by wildcat]

Why do you hate rap? Matter of fact why do you hate anything? I dont go into country music threads or metal threads and bother posting when I dont like it..

Thats ignorant man, now get out of the thread.

You asked me why I hate rap, then you told me to get out of the thread. Why?


The thread said who's your favorite and least favorite rapper. I stated that all rappers are my least favorite - and intended to say only that. I never meant to hurt anyone. Now I am not a gothic black and death metal guy in case your wondering.

So now on with the question

I hate rap because it's full of sex, crime and money. It makes crime look cool. It makes cheating on your husband and your boyfriend killing him look cool. It encourages our youth to go out and bust their virginity way too early. Now I will admit that I used to like rap, eminem in particular. But when I realized what they were singing about, I moved to rock.

Wildcat, there is lots of different rap. Don't judge a whole apple tree by one or two rotten apples. There are many songs, most of the stuff I listen to doesn't talk about all of the things you've mentioned. There is different kinds, and different kinds of subjects, talking about different kinds of things.

And rap about sex goes, come on, that's the stuff! Sex is da best stuff out there, and it sells.

I don't listen to it, but I know a lot of musics, too, have violence, sex, drugs, and cheating in them.

Also, many rappers rap a lot about their lives and what they see, and their lives (most of their lives) aren't easy.

Yes, you did state that all rappers were your least favorite, but you forgot to state a favorite, that's part of the thread


Also you mentioned "we hate them". Now come on, you and I know that this whole situation could've been avoided. The simple universal rule is if you see a thread about something you don't like, don't go to it. We here are trying to talk about rap. Its like me (a non religious person) going to threads about religion, talking about god not existing. Or how would you like it if YOU made a thread called "whos your favorite and least favorite rocker", and I would've come and said the EXACT same stuff as you, except filling in Rock for rap as the negative. Remember, do on to others as you would like done on to yourself
