Jregz:
lol………Why hating on them ? they got some good tunes....Future has "Honest","Real and True","I won"

Migos has changed hip-hop with their crazy flows, "The Migos Flow" or better Still Quavo's flow (Triplets),I mean Quavo's got a unique way of jumping on any track... i agree quavo isn't great with lyrics but Offset's got his back there...
I know y'all gon' say Guys from 3'6 Mafia invented the flow (or even Gucci mane) but none of them used it that long and it became irrelevant (just lil section of the songs but Migos,Hella No ,conquering the world since 2012... lol)......A whole lot of rappers having the Migos (quavo) flow o their sounds-drake,future, J.cole,Meek mill even kanye....

tsolz84: @ OP;to be candid;it has faded bro..the only real hip-hop/rapper still holding it strong in 9ja is d legendary "Jesse Jagz"..the likes of ice prince and co aint rappers;dunno the kind of music dey play but it definitely aint rap..

3DCYCLOPS:


Yeah!! #teamilovebooqey...
I doubt his accent would allow this thouqh

NickiRoman: Real hip-hop is long gone in Nigeria..So it doesn't matter,every Artiste is going with the trend of producing Club songs.. It still won't stop me from listening to Real Hip-Hop Artiste like Tu'pac,Nas,Papoose,Jay-Z,Biggy,Mc Lyte,Lauryn Hill,Twalib kwali,Snoop Dog,Eminem,Common,Mos Deff,Andre 3000,LL Cool J,Dr Dre,e.t.c



*Plays Nas-It ain't hard to tell*

iceberylin: u kept on mentioning Loose.... dude is good with rap but lets face the real niqqiz who made Nigeria Hip Hop...

Da Grin....(Rip)
Mi Abaga..(chairman album coming soon)
mode9 (Nobody compares)
Eldee d Don
rugged man
Jesse jaga. (murder them remains my best)
Edris

this are the real kings



other rappers like
olamide
iceprince
phyno

are just making Noise and bragging

Chrisdmeek:

I was about saying so bro, I just laugh when I hear some peeps say Lil wanye is the best rapper, Like WTF are they saying

birdman: "real" rap was never popular in Nigeria, talk less of it declining. Even when the Wu Tang were a force to be reckoned with, mostly "americanized" Nigerians with access to satellite TV cared.

As much as like like underground rap, I am not overly impressed with mode9 etc. I think they are as good as any other rappers out there, but something about a loss of originality bothers me. At best, Nigerian rappers are clones of the American versions. And something about not bieng completely original always diminishes you. Which is why even americans appreciate a dbanj or ice prince more. why do you think anybody is going to respect you for being a copycat?

Gynacologist: hu are dis migos cos ve neva heard of em

Jregz:
Migos is a rap group from Atlanta consisting of three cousins, Quavo,Offset and takeoff...... They are popularly known for the song "Versace"....they relatively new tho (came into d Scene late 2012)
Takeoff is by d right, Offset center and quavo (left)

Gynacologist: do u knw ani of their hit trck i min dope track

Jregz:
Versace!!!(ft drake) .......Hannah Montana,Migo Dreams,Trophies (Ft drake)


P.S---- Don't expect Some Nas or J.cole flow

Djicemob: And iceprince is not a copycat? Why didnt he wear agbada to the BET? Why does he keep shouting "nigga" nigga" in his songs? Why rush into collabos with these american stars? Why not use berom which is his own dialect to rap? Originality? Why didnt BET pick olamide or phyno to rep naija at the Awards? Dont be deceived bro,as long as rap is concerned,all em naija MCs are copy cats including Olamide and Phyno etc.Thanks.

Bawsse:

Commercial is NOT a sub-genre of hip hop. the only sub-genre recognized are: hardcore hip hop, gangstar rap (sometimes fused together) etc. "REAL" isn't relative in this subject, as matter of fact it is constant and recognized by all who understands it. hip hop was created by the black americans to be able to speak out about the oppression from the whites, to talk and educate each other about their society and be to able to distinguish themselves and their culture. so why then would fast-talking about nnyash and cars on fast tempo beats be considered "The Real Hip hop"? it could though, but only by people who do not understand its origin.

ThroneofMercy: Rap music is never for everyone, there are just categories of music lovers; 1. The ones that dance, 2. The ones that listen to music. It takes a great deal of intelligence to comprehend a tight rap flow. Never forget, majority of music lovers are mediocre. Life is so fair, you hang with your type. For me, the likes of krs1 I won't trade for a million jarule. QED

Please give me one Rap song that requires 'a great deal of intelligence' to comprehend.

MadCow1:


What is culture?

Belief, customs, art, way of life..

When a Rapper like Rick Ross talks about Rims, popping bottles and drop tops, he is talking about the black culture that is prevalent in the US black populated neighborhoods. When they sing about drugs, guns and prison, it's actually what they live. Whilst Tupac goes hard and comes at it from a more political standpoint, Ross goes a different direction and talks about it froma more embracing perspective. None I 'realler' than the other, just two sides of a coin.

That's why I say to all the so-called real hip-hop heads to simply stick to your side of the coin and stop trying to flip things. At the end of the day, the content are based on the same subjects.

birdman:

All genres of music borrow from each other. Question: what does mode9 add to his rap that differentiates him from the 10000 other rappers in the US alone. If I walked into an nyc bar and saw mode9 rapping, I could be fooled into thinking he is fam from up the block. Thats how hard he worked on his flow. Unfortunately, there's a thousand others like that in the same area. Americans arent looking to Nigerians to show them what they already have. They want to see something different from you, otherwise they would just mind themselves and not bother.

With olamide etc, I can still see elements of rap, but they added their own unique twists to it. And you dont have to rap in Berom or Yoruba before its unique. Dbanj is not even really a musician, yet Kanye was interested, because of the uniqueness. Rake on olamide, phyno all you want. they are savvier than "real" rappers as you put it.

Djicemob: The difference is that,mode9 centers his rap around the nigerian context(go listen carefully to his sh#t) and also spit words of wisdom as an added bonus(its like u buy 1 and get 1 free).He doesnt talk about poppin bottles and rockin biitches in clubs(like the americans).Ice-prince,olamide etc on the other hand are guilty of this...So now u tell me whose being fake?
