Vector lines are not for shallow minded ppl. His songs are d only rap I would listen to 10 times and derives 10 different meaning any time I play his songs. Forget about self acclaimed best rapper in Africa. Vector is King of Metaphor take it or leave it...

Bro. I don loud this thing how many times.
Everytime you listen, you get a new meaning.
Na all these 'listen once and get the whole message dey sweet these lazy guys'.

afroxyz:
with all this your chicken shit analysis I didnt even see where vector categorically telling MI, 'I'm not your G'

In a tweet where VEC went like 'This here is just practice'.. MI replied him 'My G' and VEC took that swipe 'I'm not your G'.

spirul77:
"dumb fans are dumb sha" isn't that line too wacky and trashy? those two diss tracks are pure rubbish Abeg, just be like one nursery school music

One correction I'll like to make to you is that you should stop talking about album when we're discussing content.
Some rappers like VEC and even M.I. have great deliveries that are not even in their albums.

Most of y'all reading the surface but if you know VEC, you'll do more of LISTENING than just nod your heads to the beat.
Look at you taking a swipe at that nunchucks line which was a really powerful dissline
Just say you don't understand o.
Anyways since M.I. want to diss back for his fans, I pray he cums quick (anyhow you understand this one, na you know o )

anonymousghost2:
vector is a copy cat and he is very shallow n empty with is lines..
check out his album, he is busy singing lol

Let's assume VEC is a copycat.
Mention one track where he showed this copycat skills with proper comparison.

lilmax:
he went at your favourite rapper that's why you're pained, that's what I got from your post

Rap devil made you bang your head because of the beats


But when it comes to diss, we don't need beats, we need lyrics

Saying Eminem failed to address rap devil means you didn't even listen to the song





Like I said, take a seat

I lost words for that bro.
All through Killshot, Eminem kept making reference to the lines in Rap Devil but somehow he managed to miss those when listening to it.

anonymousghost2:
m.i is very too complex, you need a dictionary to understand him..
go play illegal mixtapes and clean ur ear

I'm sorry but which M.I. is complex?
Lol.
Oga you are not talking about M.I.
You're summarizing VEC only that you mentioned the wrong album.
You're referring me back to M.I. wey I even ditch when Jesse Jagz enter the scene.

Elnino4ladies:
Compare with MI his discography are weak as fvck

Okay o.

chukzyfcbb:
wetin dey vex me pass ma say MI talk for Twitter that VEC will be replied.

it's over one week now, baba never drop diss track. Haba!!

Trying to play on fans emotions to get views.
I wish him all the best.
We need make dem murder person lyrically abeg!!!

Laurene:
that's your own opinion but go to hotnewhiphop and see the comments on rap devil then kill shot. In the eyes of an average listener, em won due to sentiments and juveniles that knows nothing about the rap game. Which fact the em address? Is it the fact that he was blackballing and shading him using the record label and Paul Rosenberg? Or the fact that em has not visited 8th mile for the fear of being shot or the the fact that he pays private security company for protection? Or the fact that his last good album was recovery? Slim shady is supposed to be a mentor and role model to young rappers not an enemy. Mgk was his top fan but got disappointed with him. Rap devil was not a demolishing diss track but a lamentation of a pissed Stan. Em should hang the mic!!

It's quite brash to assume all that analyses by different persons from all over was my opinion but I'ld like a link to the hotnewhiphop page. Would be nice to see contemporary views properly analysed.

As for MGK's disappointment, let's hope it motivates him to keep going. Em helped his career by giving him a reply.
'I mention you'...'Win Win for you'

meccuno:
you are just like a friend of mine who is into vector. have listened to him and i am not impressed. let me ask. why do you think vector is a good rapper?

Because for me, rap is about wordplay, metaphors and lyrics fuses into rhymes and done flawlessly. The faster, the better.

And the best part is..double entendres. A line having two meanings both of which make meaning to the subject matter.

Examine this part of VEC's verse in Distractions (Reminisce diss)

'You hold your career with my bars you gon' make no bail'
'Your CDs like abandoned ships, they make no sail'
You wann' cry lil fish, you're gon' cry lil fish, you tryna be the big fish, I can help you whale'

bars in the first refer to both his lines and prison bars however you reason it.
Sail in the second is a wordplay on 'sale' of the CDs.
'Whale' in the third is a wordplay on 'wail' as per person wey wan diss am.

Bro, listen to this and how he does that effortlessly on the mic with almost every verse. Hidden meanings everywhere.

He just dropped a new one on his twitter handle today. Came with lyrics. Try checking it out if you can.

For VEC, it's a normal thing.

Elnino4ladies:
If you are a good rapper, your discography should prove that

And VEC's doesn't?

meccuno:
You want to fall sick ba

Lol.
Based on wetin?
M.I. popular before VEC.
Wetin go make me favour VEC strong gaan.

That aside, I have nothing less than 30 VEC songs on my phone, from Denge Pose of 2009/10 to The Purge of last month.

I get his lyrics at my fingertips.

Elnino4ladies:
But why your vector no dey Chanel his lyricism into his body of work All his albums are mediocre, none can stand any of MI discography... WTF are you guys on about??

Discography is no reason why rap should become RnB bikonu.
Their cash and fame is for their pocket. For me, I just enjoy great rap content.
Perhaps my bias is because I'm a hardcore Eminem fan. I like rappers who do it like he does.

Laurene:
....instead of addressing the key points of the initial track. Eminem is better than mgk but rap devil was better due to the facts presented which eminem failed to address in his comeback. Kills shot only out sold rap devil based on popularity factor.
...

Failed to address??
When almost every hook in Killshot is a reference to the key elements in MGK's diss lines?
Wow.
Just Wow.

Let's continue the discussion here.

meccuno:
Well i have followed Mode 9 for year. at one point, i had ALL his cds. never missed one. Mode 9 is the best. but i disagree respectfully. when i listen to both Vector and MI, MI stands out. punch lines,lyricism, delivery,metaphors. MI s the ONLY rapper who i know is on the same wave length with MODE. i have listened to Vector. he is good but not that good. most times he tries too much. and he sounds so much like Jay Z. i hate it when artiste copy. but if you feel Vector is better, bring his best song lyrically and i would listen to it this night. i feel his lines are weak.

Cool. Let's drop like five of the best lines from each of M.I. and VEC and see which has deeper content.
Shall we?

battousai36:
Bro i know what rap is supposed to be
Modo,terrytherapman,overdose,sixfootplus,ruleclean and boogey will own and school both MI and VEC
This however is between mi and vec and to be impartial i will pick mi all day and sunday

Aiit man. No disrespect intended

GARRIYELLOW:
The OP is obviously biased.
Do yourself a favour and watch Vec's version in his interview with Freeze.

Bro.. VEC burst my head with that interview.
It's no wonder why everytime you listen to his song after a while, you discover some new messages or wordplays hidden beneath.

badmrkt:
not lose your sleep bro. M.I might come back better. Remember Jay-Z' s vs Nas? When everyone thought Nas was finished, he come back with a blast that sent Jay z to rap hospital...relax bro.

It's good for the industry.
If M.I. has a trick up his sleeve, now it's the best time to win his respect.
That's if all these is not some publicity stunt.

battousai36:
MI is way ahead of vector and this is no joke
I mean better punchlines,storytelling and persona
Vector's lines na like nursery rhymes

Lol.
Bro.. You need a high IQ to sync with VEC.
Actually, it was VEC's dishes that showed up the mediocre rap Nigerians are being fed with.
He just dropped a freestyle today and managed to add explanations for people like una.
Go and learn what rap is supposed to be like.

neutrotoba:
you don't start a beef and then try to take the morale high ground.

I mean.. Who does that?
We wey don dey happy say VEC don get reason to get busy cos he's been stingy with giving us goodies, na im M.I. wan dey Gee up

Laurene:
sharap you Jon snow

He's stating facts.
There's no better rapper than VEC since he stepped on the scene.
The kind of 'easy' rap M.I does is why he has his hoard of fans.
But for people who taste rap, it's obvious even Jesse Jagz has better wordplay, metaphors and delivery than M.I.
Not to speak of Vector.
Vector no get equal. At least, not yet. It's that easy.

Laurene:
mgk already bodied eminem

Correct.

Tell me about Killshot.

Or did you stop halfway?

All these R'n'B lovers should lay off this thread jor.

What's all these nonsense talk calling Vector petty.. Were they not aware of M.I. shots before now?

Vector put him on the grill with his verse in The Purge and it'll be a miracle for M.I. to measure up to those bars. He never was lyrically on par with VEC though but he's more famous.

It's time to heat up the industry and someone is calling another my G instead of cooking up a solid comeback

I pity any rapper that will try this for Eminem in a diss game. He will roast the destiny.

driand:


Teachers and schools excellent award...

Aiit they've done well for themselves,...

NEXT!

Ogun kee anyone that turns this thread to a tribal battle ground...

Seconded.

But

Igbo Amaka.

**dies**

There is no price tag on true passion.

Bullshyte.. Bullshitter.. Bullshitest

Let me give Biggie the next script.
Put her back into the house so that we can rest.

The End.

Odinaka00:
Na So una go dey blow wicked punchlines and metaphors for rap section NL but when una come do song una go just dey sound so whack. Who come dey write all those bars for una for NL?

I no get.
Wetin concern metaphors and punchlines in a supposed love song abi catarrh dey your brain?

Soft. Not bad for a first timer. I don subscribe.
God go make you bigger

The two rods protruding from the train wouldn't have done the elephant any favours.
The video was sickening

These guys sha.
Is a Nigerian student not supposed to know that at the top of every question paper, the class for which the questions is set for will be indicated.
Imagine the surprise seeing these guys waving 'lies' and '100L' when the question paper clearly states 'SLT ND 2'.
I'm pretty sure they didn't even recognize it was a from a polytechnic.

Lazy yoot

phiLIP is that you?
