Krayola2:You came out to say TI and Dr Dre where not MCs If I were doing this just to win a debate, I'd have capitalised on that. ![]() @Sauron You'll have to agree with me that the Eminems and Jay-Zs of today have been helped by the works f the NWAs of the past Besides, the influence of technology on hiphop has increased since the '80s . . .Dre used to record hiphop songs on tape in his basement The digital mastering of that era only came from the echoes from the walls . . . compare that to Jay-Z's Black Album that had over 20 producers We all know that good beats inspire the best works. . . |
Krayola2:Stop backing down now . . . the word 'emcee' comes from 'Master of Ceremony' Yeah . . . you can entertain some crowds with 'When I say Mode, you say Nine' and then go monotonous. . . but that'll only work for your own fans.But then you'll have to entertain other crowds too . . . that's when the problem starts Nowadays, people are musically inclined . . . they'll wait to see how good you delivery is . . . what do you do with spaces inbetween beats?? They'll want to listen to your rhyme scheme and arrangement of multies . . . if you give them crap delivery, they get bored |
[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=189393.msg4319793#msg4319793 date=1249736312]Don't contradict yourself. . . . . .Being a good MC means makes you a professor of rap while the ordinary rappers are University students. The MC looks for other things to make his lyrics tight. . . . .This is where the use of multis, wordplay and metaphors come in. In the 80s. . . . . .Most rhyme patterns are simplistic and they go like this: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXCrack XXXXXXXXXXXXXXTrack XXXXXXXXXXXXXXRack. But thanks to the MCs like Eminem/Canibus who sat down and took rap lyrics to another level(complexity) with multi-syllabic and inner rhymes/end rhymes.[/quote]At least sumone's bold enough to admit this Rap's golden era is not the 80s it's the mid and late 90s . . . that's when wordplay, multies and lyrical artistry came into rap The only thing the rappers from the 80s had over the 90s was the experience of growng up in the urban inner-cities in the 70s They had more stories and had parents that fully experienced the racially segregated America . . . so they were angrier I don't know if they gays or what Search a nigga down and grabbin his nuts And on the other hand, without a gun they can't get none But don't let it be a black and a white one Cuz they slam ya down to the street top Black police showin out for the white cop NWA - F*ck The Police |
Rhymstein:Do you even know what poetry is?? So if you can't feestyle . . . you're not a poet?? What's poetry?? You think every poem has to be narrative cos you read Abiku in high school?? Maybe you should know that hiphop and the spoken word are urban forms of poetry. Rappers use poetic devices like metaphors and similes . . . it's even arranged in lines and verses. Do you still need evidence to support the fact that M.I's a musically-gifted poet?? |
Krayola2:Every rapper that we know is an emcee . . . let's cut the whole B.S The only reason we get to know them is because they've gone on tours in different raves . . . sometimes across the Atlantic The difference between a good emcee and a crap one is the diversity of crowds they appeal to . . . Jay-Z rocked Glastonbury Festival, the home of rock . . . that's like Elton John rocking the Hot 97 Summer Jam andthen to the Inauguration Kanye West murked Europe's biggest rock Festival . . . Nas has torn apart audiences from Ballrooms to Muson Centre Now is Canibus an emcee?? Definitely . . . he will rock a room full of 1000 Saurons Modenine will rock a crowd of 200 Javaloves. But is he a good emcee?? Nah man. Being a good MC does not necessarily make u a better rapper than someone who isn't. It just means u can rock a crowd (u might make shitty songs e.g. Canibus)It doesn't make you a better rapper . . . but it does make you a better hiphop artiste It may suprise you to know that emceeing existed before rap . . . And thing is . . . you can't be the claim to be the best rapper if you're not one of the best emcees around |
lalaboi:I know . . . it's almost like I bring trouble wiv me anywhere I post nowadays lalaboi:I've seen one or two old M.I battles . . . believe me, no nigerian rapper wants to battle him And with the crowd appeal, he'll end up ending Iceberg's career. And how can you say you ain't throwing sublimnals when you're calling out the person?? 'Am I better than M.I??' . . .No you not!!! End of!!! ![]() |
rapjunkie:Don't go with Sauron, he's biased against Kanye, Nas and Jay-Z ![]() |
[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=189393.msg4317859#msg4317859 date=1249683613]In his era, he was untouchable. . . . .He is one of the best MCs to have ever grabbed the MIC. Modestans can be aggressive and annoying TBH. . . . . Thatz the song i was trying to remember. . . . . .Cheese n Rice, i saw the song on HiTV. Without any shadow of doubt, that is the best rap song performed by a Nigerian. It was DOPE!!!![/quote]You think Area's cool?? Try Overkilling (Remix) The funniest part of the whole song was the way he took a swipe at Chelsea http://www.notjustok.com/2009/07/25/djinee-give-it-to-me-overkillin-remix-ft-m-i-ice-prince-jesse-jagz/ MI + Jesse Jags + Ice Prince = Three way battle |
Rhymstein:Where I'm from, the phrase 'you suck' doesn't come across as respectful . . . Sauron replied like a gent because he didn't find your post offensive, I did . . . c'est fini Rhymstein:I never said anything about being a hiphop head, i only stated my opinion You then accused me of imposing my views . . . It's eL's post for heaven's sake, no one's forcing you to accept it. For heaven's sake, it's different strokes for different folks . . . I think M.I's is Nigeria's best emcee, an opinion shared with more than half the Nigerian hiphop audience Rhymstein:How can you say M.I lacks brillant wordplay?? If M.I ain't poetry then who is?? Rhymstein:You know what . . . I'm done here @Sauron It's just annoying when some Modestans start acting like other people don't have the right to speech I heard this song with Djinee . . . I heard M.I seducing heavy bars with this sumblime delivery And funy enough, he's got a good voice . . . that's music made in heaven |
Rhymstein:Stop being a plonker . . . can't you see how stupid you sound already?? I shouldn't impose my views . . . but nah, u've got the right to say he's not the best?? @Sauron There's nothing more dangerous to this world than an ignorant man with too little information. How do you start to explain content and context to someone that just stumbled across his first Talib Kweli album yesterday?? |
lalaboi:Is it me or did sumone just challenge Nigeria's best rapper?? Like does he seriously know he's talking to Naija's rap messiah?? |
I think Mailmalc won this one . . . why?? He was the only one battling. Ibime's lines look like sumn from Def Poetry Jam . . . Creative metaphors and wordplays don't always make good punchlines. Straight-up is what Mailmalc was punchlines hittin ur face/ nw watch ur Nose decide . . / ur fate wit no disguise then i'll pro'lly get jailed for Homicide/ i glo in style/ chillin to watch-this ho' rock-the pole wit Pride/ Ibime stil wouldn't cum thru even if given a 30mins 'head' start/ This asshole buildin castles wit glass stones/ watch me shatter his last hopes/ Ibime is the most creative netcee we've had on NL in a long while But he prolly forgot that this was a battle not the Freestyle Lounge Im counting cash/ on forex indices where my coins chart/ brand you with a swastika. . . but still you got no Deutsche Marks!/ My dogs bite ankles/ like buckles on tight sandals/ You can’t win fair and square. . . so you better try angles!/(triangles) You could bet-ya-computer/ that Ill lecture-this-loser/ and Ill make you owe PC. . . like June 12 election-disputers!/ I climb fences/ and steal one of your five senses/ so you couldn’t scope a chick. . . not even with fine lenses/ My speech so sick/ but I keep it on a d-lo tip/ Pride comes before a fall. . . and Ill make ya ego trip!/ Analogue television/ couldn’t describe his position/ cos when this fool smokes weed. . . he’s the high definition!/ All these lines were ill and cleverly worded but at the end of the day, it's a battle not a poetry slam Punchlines come first . . . |

dayokanu:The fifth best EPL team won the CHAMPIONS' league . . . Arsenal was fourth in England when they were the second best in Europe Can Wolfsburg win the UCL?? ![]() [quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=303740.msg4303375#msg4303375 date=1249480964]Grafite won the German Footballer Of The Year with that cheap flick. Something Rory Delap and Vaz Te do every fortnight in the EPL. Bayern Munich are a spent force. . . . . . .They are the most useless team in Europe as we speak. The last time Bayern Munich played in the UCL final . . . . .The Twin Towers of the World Trade Centre in NY were still standing. [/quote] ![]() |
MrCrackles:Hehehe . . . by other German teams you mean Wolfsburg?? Like, the same ones that just signed Martins from the Coca-Cola Championship?? ![]() And I heard they only bought him to punish Grafite for assaulting Bayern's defenders with that backflick goal ![]() I can picture Wolfsburg coach telling Graphite . . . 'next time you try that rubbish, you'll end up 'injured' for the rest of the season' |
dayokanu:The last time a German team in a UCL Final, Rooney was 14 . . . that's high school ![]() Who cares if Man Utd wins the league 100 times?? At the end of the day, EPL's fourth placed team reaches the final . . . Liverpool was the fifth placed team in England when they won the UCL!!! I've even forgotten how it feels to see Bayern play in a UCL Final ![]() |
[quote author=A-40 link=topic=303566.msg4296370#msg4296370 date=1249385764]When you hit a woman there's something about it that just shuts a woman up half the time.Did Carmen deny Jigga? Did Vivica deny Fiddy? she might say other things about you but chances are she would not deny it who-ha that ish actually went down[/quote]Come on . . . people deny these things all the time People react differently to things, you can't use Hov and Curly to predict what happened wiv Em. |
[quote author=A-40 link=topic=303566.msg4297307#msg4297307 date=1249394673]Someone had to put the recluse in his place!! Besides i think Aguilera did reply EM not sure but i would check ma vault Lets just say Mariah has a short fuse besides did EM claim he shagged Aguilera? Didn't M.J have kids in his crib? didn't he get his hair burnt too?? Mariah is obviously replying because EM claimed he shagged her.Nothing more[/quote]Tupac claimed he shagged Faith Evans . . . 50Cent claimed he shagged Lil Kim What's the difference between the two of em?? Faith Evans didn't do a diss track. That's the difference between putting an ignorant rapper in his place and starting a mudslinging contest By the way, why am I the only one that believes that there's a chance this actually happened?? Or is there sumn I should know of?? Like say 'Mariah Carey wears a purity band'?? |
[quote author=A-40 link=topic=303566.msg4296925#msg4296925 date=1249390998]Who was ever scared of EM? That's the question its not like he is some gangsta that would whoop Mariah's ass if he saw her.EM really screwed up and i like Mariah's reply the fact that she even had the gonads to reply him says a lot she is not Britney or Christina that can be bullied and tossed around EM does not realize that she is half-black and has some ghetto in her[/quote]So Christina Aguilera ignoring Eminem makes her a weakling?? Or maybe Michael Jackson shoulda replied Just Lose It?? Eminem is a clown . . . no one took this thing serious till MC did Obsessed. She's bigger than Em, a press statement woulda done this easily . . . but nah, she had to do a video C'mon, it's simple . . . she needed a Number One, Em gave her one [quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=303566.msg4296954#msg4296954 date=1249391290]Eminem will never walk away from a beef. . . . . .I have known that since the turn of the millennium. . . . Mariah miscued taking Eminem in a battle of insults. . . . .A rapper who has dissed his own mother and ex-wife. The same geezer took the piss on the gay community, dissed American parents plus the most misogynistic rap verse ever on "Kim". Abeg. . . . . . . .Only a consummate idiot will take Eminem on. . . . Mariah shoulda learnt with Ja Rule's career. Are u aware Nick Cannon denied "Obsessed" was meant for Eminem?[/quote]Nick Carey is a pussyhole . . . James Blunt's got more street cred than him ![]() Why didn't he release his own Em diss track?? |
bgees:Simple concept . . . crime and punishment. Have you seen The Game's Melissa Ford diss?? And 50's Lil Kim Freestyle?? And to think these ones are unprovoked. She denied Eminem on flipping Larry King Live!!! That's social homicide. You might not take that serious . . . but he did, and he released a whole diss track for her, what else do you expct from Eminem?? And he just won a mental battle by getting her husband to reply . . . and then she did, not in a TV interview not a newspaper column, she did a flipping diss song. She actually tried to battle hiphop's most famous bully. . . as I said I'm waiting for Oprah's Bleep 50Cent [quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=303566.msg4296831#msg4296831 date=1249390033]What does it matter? Whether u dissed a woman with a line or two or do a whole 100 bars, dissing is dissing. . . . Mariah did a whole song with a chorus on Eminem. . . . .She even made a video(She took it 12 yards further than Christina Aguilera). What do u expect Eminem to do? Ignore the beef so y'all haters can say he got murked? Puhleeeeeeeeeeeeeaze, this hypocrisy should stop.[/quote]She's an attention seeking slut . . . trying to use beef to sell records Is it not high time she left the stage for the Beyonces and Keri Hilsons?? |
Bamsyle:I'm not a Stan, I'm not even a fan . . . and I've done a crap job trying to hide that fact. But come on . . . rappers diss women all the time, stop acting like it's some new thing 50 Cent had beef tracks for Lil Kim and Foxy Brown, The Game went all out against Amber Rose/Melissa Ford, don't let's go to Jay-Z We all know Eminem is a person . . . but nah, I'm not going to allow double standards affect the way I see things Is Eminem an attention-seeking plonker?? Definitely. . . but what does Mariah Carey's reply tell us?? She emasculated him, he dissed her . . . so?? I don't care if he's a frustrated sod, but he did what he's been doing since his first album. She's 101 times more influential than Eminem in pop culture, she has a reputation to protect . . . replying just equates her with Lil Kim and Foxy Brown What next?? We'll see Sarah Palin doing a 'Bleep Marshal Matters' LP?? It's a no-brainer, let relapsed psychos lie. |
What's wrong with wanting to be the next King of Pop?? Is that what every artiste is aiming for?? Abeg . . . he's the biggest popstar of our time, I fully support him . . . even if he's not bold enough to admit it. |
Best I Ever Had - Drake |
follypimpi:Come on . . . last season Denilson touched the ball more times than any other player in the EPL (up until the FA Cup Final Weekend) His job in the team is to be with the ball and he did it better than anyone else in the league . . . Just because he's Brazilian doesn't mean he has to turn the pitch into a circus . . . remember Gilberto?? |
Ibime:He's just 30, same age as Drogba Wasn't Ballack 30 when he came to Chelski?? |
tubabie:Hehehe . . . I need him injured all season, Van Persie definitely get injured during winter . . . so Vela gets more chances to score ![]() nateevs:Wenger schooled me . . . ![]() I got Vela and a few guys from the following the Coca-Cola Championship. . . |
Did I hear Dayo say sumn?? Grafite fired Bayern's manger for heavens' sake!!! He dribbled your whole team and refused to score like normal footballers His coach told him to do ten laps for exposing Germany's past glory. |
nuzo:Bullshit . . . if hiphop lovers prefer poems to bling and controversy, why did Weezy's Carter III sell more records than Nas' Untitled?? Just because you have a new found love for History don't mean the world's with you. nuzo:No one said hiphop is all about beef . . . what I've simply pointed out is the fact that it'sa dying art. A dying art is still art. This is the first time in years we're seeing real beef that's not Ice-T Vs Soulja Boy or Eminem Vs Mariah Carey . . . Some rappers thrive best with rivalry . . . punchlines one of rap's finest ads are made specifically for battles |
Vuitton:NOOOOOO!!!! You don't say Vuitton:He lacked focus?? Everyone he mentioned there was a reference to Jay-Z's. 'Don't Drake me', 'T-Pain stays, old nigga goes', 'Kanye bleeped up that bitch' . . . direct punchlines directed towards Jigga. Digressing?? Everytime he mentioned sumone he came back to drop another puncline on Hov 'This ain't about her, this about Hov I'ma chop down the roc and take it to the stove' Vuitton:Only three people in this world would never admit that this is a track we'll play five years from now and see how good hiphop once was. . . You, Chiogo and Jay-Z ![]() It had everything a classic diss track needs . . . you heard it here first-ness, controversy, good production, battle ready delivery, intelligent disses, namedroping, you name it. And he had so much to say . . . So, n-gga calm your nerves, with all that absurd Far from the curb bullshit-slash-spoken word You nerd That was a straight-up diss targeted at Jigga's song History Ain’t no “Big Pimpin’” on my block But I’m an underground king, peace to love-vendor C Eliminates every I'm-richer-than-you reply from Hov . . . Remember that he's used it against Nas, Cam'ron and Lil Wane You got my name in your mouth I hope it tastes like this—ahhh No homo, one more time—ahhh Thanks to The Game, now I just laugh anytime I see the Death of Autotune Video ![]() No one on the corner got a swagger like you, ’cause no one on the f*ckin’ corner is 42 This is the funniest punchline I've hear all year ![]() Every line on this song was catches your imagination . . . like 'what's he refering to this time??' And to think this is just a warning shot . . . ![]() This is what you get for calling out sumone that's so loco |
Why's everyone after Eminem's head?? Is he not just being the ignorant dickhead we've come to know and love since The Real Slim Shady?? Besides, is he not just doing what every other rapper does?? What's wrong with using controversy to revive his dead career?? My simple question is . . . why is a woman that has more Grammy nominations than Michael Jackson wasting studio time on Eminem?? What does she stand to gain?? What, does she think she'll outdiss Eminem or sumn?? She's the one that's arguably the most successful woman in pop culture . . . She has everything to lose For heaven's sake, even Miley Cyrus didn't respond to Jamie Foxx TV rants . . . and that's a 17 year old Just imagine MJ doing a reply to Just Lose It . . . She's just worn her white Chanel gown to fight with the pigs . . . and to think these are two people in their 40s acting like teenagers |
dyabman:Do we get more points later in the season?? nateevs:I've got Torres, Lampard, Arshavin, Vidic and Cech in one team I just hope Van Persie and Bendtner get injured so Vela gets enough starting chances ![]() |
[quote author=invisible! link=topic=270819.msg4273885#msg4273885 date=1248978484]Damn! that was so daft of me[/quote]I agree . . . that was eally daft of you ![]() MrCrackles:Why're we talking bout small teams like Bayern?? Come on, that's a record low . . . I'd rather sit here and discuss Derby County ![]() |
