**Rap ~ Retrospection**
« on: February 22, 2008, 02:46 PM »

Hehehe, y'all know i had to make a topic since i haven't made a single one on this rap section.This is basically to enlighten some of us

on 'Rap' history.For ex: I only know bout 2 or 3 songs by 2pac and he's s'pposed to be a 'world legend'. I know i cld go on youtube/google him but don't nobody

got time to read all that long stuff. So, i think this is a fun way of learnin' bout rap  Wink kind@ like the show, 'Hood Fab' but only prize we all gettin' is 'KNOWLEDGE'.

Here are some hints:
Album:                                                                                                                    Rap disses:

when was --------'s 1st album released??                                                                 who said ----------- in their rap diss??
what was d title of ---------'s album in ----- year??                                          --------- and ------- were involved in a beef in -------


                                                                        Important Events:
                                                                                        ------- was killed in -------??
                                                                   -------- rap group broke apart in ------- year??


Y'all get it?? And y'all cld include Naija raps (some people like me know nothin' bout naija rappers/rap)

Rules:
.Guessin' is allowed(u never know)
.If incorrect, original poster should give out the answer
.No trick questions, u gotta come correct(ie. get your facts straight)
. No beefin' up in here(if u have to, click on the '2 line diss' topic and knock urselves out) Cool
. No unnecessary comments(u can ignore a question u do not wish to answer!!)


Hope this ain't too nerdy for y'all, i'm a nerd,lol.

I'll have to go first. here's an easy one:

Who was the co-founder of Def jams records along with Jay-z and who is now the sole founder??

@eldee, yea I've known that jayZ song since last year.
Lil wayne's also got his own version then this guy Smitty ft. Robin thicke has his own version too.
And even a remix(this is tighest version)- Smitty ft. T-pain, Rick Ross & Junior Reid produced by none other than SCOTT STORRRCH!

@ eldee,

Answer : Rewind by NaS from the album Illmatic! One of his sickest songs in my opinion!

Lol, u got it. The name of that DMX track was The Professional. The part missing was "and everyone who sees it will be blinded"

Q,
What was the Name of the album Canibus dropped in '05?
eldee (m)
Re: **Rap ~ Retrospection**
« #27 on: February 23, 2008, 11:31 AM »

@smith
It's Rewind, but it's from Stillmatic not Illmatic Wink
that's my best NaS song because it was like he filmed sumn, played it backwards and described it in a poem. . .
that's one thing punchline rappers can't do, they have their way with words but they can't manipulate stories Cheesy

@topic
Answer: erm i'm not sure but i think it's 'rip the jacker'

Question
What is the name of the group Canibus is a member of?
Wordsmith
Re: **Rap ~ Retrospection**
« #28 on: February 23, 2008, 12:42 PM »

@ eldee,

actually it's "Mind Control". Rip the Jacker was sometime between 01 and 02, can't remember.

Answer : Canibus was a member of T.H.E.M (The Heralds of Extreme Metaphors)
