Abdurrazaq, personally I don't resort to abuses or insults when arguing. But this sly fella just barged into this thread and shocked me (and I'm sure a lot of other folks) by making one funny comparison. And then he was so abusive about it. Check his first two posts and you'll understand. He rained abuses on Eldee and Hannibal all because they both bared their minds in a very mature manner. We were having a nice time on this thread before he intruded. I just wanted to make a point - I can be cool like that but if he wanna "ball till he falls I can help him with that".

I crave the indulgence of all the intelligent minds on this thread

I wish them well especially as 9ice is one of my fave artistes but I also see the point Lucabrasi's making here. They even look tired!

Well, above all, Happy Married Life!!!

The Sly:
Sorry but i think u need to throw that crack u smoking away and read what i posted again!
You seem not to have grasped what i am trying to say . . . . .
I am not comparing Nas with T.I and shits. . . . . . . u blind??
If u look at my initial post, it was directed to someone who said this is the best album this year
And then i said nahh! not until T.I releases his album this fall. . . . .

And what the bloody hell did you mean by Best and Richest don't mean the same?
In the dictionary. . . . . .Yeah it doesn't but like when we say David BC. is one of the best athlete alive, is he not rich too?
Of what use is a best rapper that is not so rich? i am not saying he is not rich but C'mon, This dude deserves more than that.

Sly, I really tried to make some sense outta your posts but sorry I just can't. You are not comparing Nas with T.I, so what exactly are you doing You seem to be losing it Hannibal labelled Nas' album the best rap album this year. Then you reply by saying not until T.I releases his album. And you're not comparing both rappers. So what exactly were you doing? Are you hallucinating?

Sure in your dictionary, the word "best" has got synonyms like "richest", "wealthiest" et al. Or how do we understand what you're saying here? I think you need to obtain licence to write your own dictionary. Even common sense ^{*which ain't really common anyways*} would tell you that the best ain't usually the richest. So David Beckam is the best footballer in the world because he's rich? Why not try Abacha is the best Nigerian President. Why? He's the richest.

Dude, your argument here suggests you're not educated ^{*formal or informal*}. Have you heard about the subject called Logic? Under that subject, there are what we call premises and conclusion. Here, your argument goes sumn like this:

Premise 1: The tallest in the animal kingdom is king
Premise 2: The giraffe is the tallest in the animal kingdom
Conclusion: The giraffe is king of the animal kingdom

Or sumn even more dumb!!!

WTF?!

Further to that, if "tallest" is your measure of kingship, what about strongest, fastest, smartest, etc?

In music/rap, if richest is your interpretation of best, what about flows, lyrics, delivery et al

To cap up your appalling argument, you asked

Of what use is a best rapper that is not so rich?

Whaaaaaat So then Tupac, Biggie, even Rakim, Big Daddy Kane, Kool G. Rap are of no use How rich are/were those cats? You're not making sense at all.

And as to why, in your words, "Nas ain't so rich", ^{*even though methinks he can afford to buy you and your lifetime savings*} you also answered the question in the same breath -

This dude deserves more than that.

Yes he does. But until peops like you change their orientation and start buying an album not cuz the artiste is rich but cuz he makes sensible lyrics, Nas may remain poor.

And mind you, all he needs is One Mic. 'Bout the dollars? He don't give a hoot.

He's 2 much!

The Sly:
Mayne I feel like shooting you straight in the head!!!!
Are u drunk or u didn't peruse what i posted before spewing blepets
I said when it comes to the lyrics and them things. . . . . .Nas got it. . . . .No doubt.
But unfortunately the dude has not been lucky when it comes to record sales and others!. . . . . . .Don't u get?

You are not even ashamed . . . . . .T.I came into the scene few years ago and dude is already reapin millz. . . . . .aint that a kick?
Back in them biggy n 2pac days. . . . .It was all about the poets and em lyrics but todays hiphop is not all about that no more hombre!
Hell. . . . . .Lil wayne sold almost 500,000 copies the very first day his bunkum infested album was released. . . . . . . . . Does that tell u sumn?
I bet Nas' new album hasn't sold up to 100k since yesterday?. . . . . . . . Let alone going platinum in a week.
Watch out for Paper Trail. . . . . December 8 this year. . . . . . . . . .come holla at me after that!!

Eldee's post is clear enough for anyone to understand. Best and Richest don't mean the same thing. I just don't get it when peops like you appear on a thread like this and post completely off topic. Read the topic again:

Is Nas Still Rap's Best Lyricist?

And then in your "intelligence", you introduce T.I - and then you go on and on about awards, dough, going plat and stuff nobody ain't talking 'bout here. You should've stopped when you admitted that Nas got the lyrics. That's all we're here for. We don't need to hear all that ish that came after. A lot of debate's been going on about present-day rap and what it used to be in 'em Biggie/Pac days. But that's a topic for another day. Guess your list of top rappers would feature names like T.I, Diddy, Master P, et al. Fine, no one's gonna critic that. But don't visit thread like this and post those funny stuff. Create your thread for the richest rapper ^{*or maybe stick to your VIN Check at the Auto Section dude*}

^{*There's nutin you can do to me , shoot me - Eminem*}

Chai!!!

This guy will kill me with laughter lol

Na so your temper hot reach Over one artiste who probably doesn't even know you

I can almost see your face turning pink with anger

You started all this wrangling if you remember - calling all those who prefer Durella to D'banj haters and some funny names like that. Then, I took you up on that. Followed by Ibkaye. Then you let all hell loose. Don't start what you can't finish man

Relax and take it easy na. Don't choke

Anyways, much to your habitual chagrin; Durella eats up your man Skibanj D'banj over and over again - RAW.

Slow down on this girl na, haba

I ain't disappointed.

Mustapha Musty,

What're you on? ^{*you high off ecstacy?*}

@lolaboi

it would have been better if those words came out from me!

i mean i can say the same thing about you!!

just because i dnt dig durella that much like you do!

You're off point dude. You appear in every thread where D'banj is mentioned/features. I don't do that for Durella. I'm not that crazy 'bout him. But comparing him with D'banj? Forget all da hype and packaging man. When jungle mature, who no know go know.

its even good i didnt modify my posts! people can see where am coming from and where am goin!

'Sup dude?

i think dbanj i a god and i worship him!!? pathetic!

^{*remembers Eminem's Stan*} Yeah I agree dude - your case is really pathetic

Don't mind him Ibkaye. He's just working up himself over nutin. This is a dead issue. He thinks money's what we're talking here. Let him post a separate topic:

D'banj and Dangote: Who's Richer?

I guess the mofo' would hurriedly say D'banj even before thinking.

To him, D'banj is a god. He's everything and like him, everybody must worship him. ^{*shakes head for lalaboi in pity*} Lost One

Cool down dude, I know - he even rapped about it in one of his tracks.

That won't happen to my homeboy Durella

Relax dude, why do all my posts just frenzy you up like this?

lalaboi:


**shakes head*****

i dn see madness before, bt i never see madness wey conc like this

***singing***

Which song are you singing

I thought singing unknown songs is the major preserve of lunatics

lalaboi:
for hw many yearz? siddon der oh! dey wait!

until he go alaba and find his album wey never com out dia lol

Read my signature text dude

As for the Alaba angle, sure you're talking from experience ^{*London ko, Jandon ni*}

Topic reads Naija artistes!!!

Is Akon a naija artiste

Hey it's not about videos, cash, packaging, even profile. Nah nah. All those matter to eventually make an artiste big but we're talking delivery, style, raw talent here.

Yes. Natural, untapped talent ^{*like the palmwine I used to drink from the palm tree then*}.

From what I've read so far, I'm glad most of us now know what the big deal is about D'banj - videos, cash, blings, PR, packaging, big bros backing, etc.

Let's face it - when it comes to the nitty gritty of musical talent, Durella eats D'banj raw!!!

Right here and now, Ion't give one hoot 'bout that image thingy. I'm looking behind the veil for these two cats and Durella towers above D'banj.

For all the Shades in the house, the now defunct group "Remedies" had this to say:

"Je ka ma fe rawa"

For all the light-complexioned ladies, "Tony Tetuila" said:

"Omo pupa ye, iwo ni moferan"

Now, let me give you those dull lines which some wack toasters think to be wisecracks:

"Baby, you've got to be tired cos you've been running through my mind all day"

"I must be a bad shooter cos I keep missing you"

DUH

No time to read all the comments but Nas brings da realest and keeps holding it down. Rap's Best Living Lyricist!!!

Cuz he's still working on it, duh.

lalaboi, where you at?

Both of 'em are not members of your family.

YourFather:
kingdong, beautiful piece, but it lacks one, one Major fact, and that is time.

You mention the package been poor, can you rewind back to when D'banj, 2face and co started and then compare?

Durella is been packaged, one day at a time, really, from in the zanga to now, are you saying his profile hasn't risen?

When we look at the over all picture and ask, how many acts have come this far in this short a time, I will leave you to answer that.

Durella will be the biggest act in Nigeria, quote me on this.

Tell them!!!!

kingdong:
I can't help but put mouth in this wan. I love Durella, i love Dbanj but i love Durella more.

End of Story

lalaboi:
why e dey pain u like this?

sha no let them cut ya tongue for u!

More tongues:


Durella is the man!!!

Why not?

Fela and Femi Kuti both play world music, don't they?

Please upload.

How do they get to you

Again, you've scored another wonderful point in my Book of VIPs

Never met a more intelligently rational female rap fan.
