i grew up with him my entire childhood dude
same with Fabolous
most y’all haven’t even sat down and tried most of their music yet so eager to dismiss them, pretty hypocritical if you ask me
Chicken-n-Beer was one of my first rap albums
I love Luda bro was one of my faves growing up
I'm also just teasing playfully
Luda is a legend obviously
Like that's the worst part of this whole discussion. People tryna s*** on the older decades or old music in general just because people are not entertained by a lot of what's new coming out.
If not liking much of what's been coming out these last few years makes me old and out of touch then so be it. Least I got great music.
who gon set up the ludacris vs little simz verzus
NOBODY IS COMPARING THESE TWO ITT
Or at least I wasn't
I'm just saying both are good in their own ways
different lanes, Luda is better on the mic/more influential, both have classics
All those things are true but only for rap. I hate how many people on here make huge statements then turn around and ignore all other genres
this site has really fallen off a cliff man lmfaooo
It's been that way for a minute.

I wasn't s***ting on any decade I been defending the 2000s itt
We just don't need to hear about it every time a new album drops. It's unnecessary and bitter. I was in high school during the 2000s lmao
its crazy how the quality of this site nosedived out of nowhere
like bro i genuinely wanna know what happened
we need a ktt town hall
"The 2000s were better"
"New music sucks"
"Everything new is wack and the old stuff was categorically better"
Y'all are just washed. Times change, trends change, sounds change, etc. There can be a fair argument to have about certain growing pains as musical eras shift with regard to creative slumps and fluctuating commercial performance, but the vast majority of y'all are just clinging to old models and concepts of how music is supposed to work and are mad that the actually existing industry landscape is no longer operating on that model.
Tiresome to talk about because this site is filled with a bunch of tryhard borderline Gen Zers who have a superiority complex they need to flex over actual teenagers because they fell out of sync with the culture around the mid 2010s. Washed as hell, by 2028 this place gonna be Coli tier
Rap is stagnant as f***. No one is really being creative

oh you don’t like the new album by generic junkie rapist rapper 838?

This just isn't true lol
Like this is objectively wrong
If you want to talk about certain commercial strata/scenes stagnating, that's your prerogative
But there is plenty of creative and good stuff coming out rn. As good as the past? You be the judge, idk. Good enough to not write the entire decade off? 100%
There's so much more too...
DOOM
Cam'ron
Gucci
Three 6 Mafia
Nas
Juelz Santana
Common
Ludacris
Missy Elliott
Jeezy
Mos Def
TI
Ghostface Killah
Bun B
Pimp
Rick Ross
Clipse
Like so many great artists and great albums in the 2000s. People are tryna overblow the bad in that decade, as if there isn't complete dogshit in every decade, and make it seem like the 2000s was mainly bad. That just is not the reality.
And I didn't even my goat in my Avi
This just isn't true lol

Creatively it’s not. Show me something creative in rap right now.
niggas itt be like “name a good album by a new rapper” and niggas come out saying some nas or some s*** by a nigga who been rappin for 20 years
Chingy was not a "mid level" rapper of the 2000s lmfao
Young Buck was a mid level 2000s rapper
Chingy was below average
Na Chingy had like 4-5 massive hits. Buck was cool but known more for G Unit affiliation(and known as the one of the worst of the group).
Travis Scott, Young Thug, Future are thought of as top tier rappers in this generation. Chingy may have more legit massive hits/classic songs than all of them COMBINED

Little Simz, generic junkie rapist
Kendrick Lamar, generic junkie rapist
Run the Jewels, generic junkie rapists
Tkay Maidza, generic junkie rapist
Ka, generic junkie rapist
McKinley Dixon, generic junkie rapist
Earl Sweatshirt, generic junkie rapist
MIKE, generic junkie rapist
Like come on man

I think you’re confusing Yayo for Buck
