I don't want to take away from how bad the comparisons were, but the drawings were equally terrible. Especially Ishod and Nyjah.

Every thread you are in is the right thread. You are obsessed with him because he made a nazi feel unwelcome in skating, which is why you care at all about his self promoting.

Worst article I only skimmed through in a very long time. Who was the author of this and what’s their credientials as far as hip hop goes? A fuckin slap thread woulda been better than this shit

So who is the worst Girl rider in history because they would be Cappadonna

Terrible article. The difference between Gino and Nas is that Nas still raps.
Gino and Lauryn Hill is a better comparison. Everyone loves them, but they've been semi reclusive since 1998.
Sean Pablo and Lil B are similar. At their heights, both are a litmus test to see how young and absurdist a person is. 70% of their hate comes from confused 90s dudes. Their influence on the culture is both underrated and overrated at the same time.

haha damn, harsh! as an unabashed crail stan, it pains me to pick the worst, but for the sake of the comparison, i'll have to go with robbie mckinley as cappadonna. more so for their painstakingly long journey to become an "official" member, and their somewhat significant contributions to their respective group's third project (the w/yeah right).

i did a show with cappadonna (a million years ago) and was amazed with how many verses he did on classic records that i love and nearly forgot about. cap seemed like he did every single rhyme he knew that night, dude fucking rhymed for over 3 hours. and it was all heat. the soundman had to cut the power to stop him. for real its after 3am and the bartender and the soundman are ready to go home and the power is cut and capadonna is still rhyming (yelling with no mic) and the crowd is still cheering him on. they literally had to drag him offstage and tell everyone to go home. cappadonna is the shit.

I believe it! every Wu song cappadonna was featured in was fire and his verses were on point, but when that solo album was released it was hard for me to get through it all. maybe my expectations were too high.

He was good, about a dozen years ago. Then his brain slowly turned to mush, and now he is garbage, in artistic endeavors and just as a human being. Shame really.
I thought the article was about as good as it could be, which isn't saying much, but seems like a lot of hurt feelings around here.

GINO IANUCCI = NAS
Proper East Coast icons and idols (G.O.A.T.s, if you will) still riding the wave of their greatest hits released well over 20 years ago. Neither one of these guys have had a really strong latter half of their career, but that seems to be pretty OK in everyone’s books.
(http://78.media.tumblr.com/d8c2ddd95a18c468e298827a4ce2a951/tumblr_muxke9taLI1qb1y4go1_400.gif)
Nas has one of the greatest catalogs in rap history, could be argued the greatest. His last album was dope and he’s dropping an album this Friday. That “it was only his early stuff” shit is BS. Obviously Illmatic is better, but Illmatic is better than all rap albums.
NYJAH HUSTON = DRAKE
These child prodigies are still holding on to the top spot of their respective lanes. Whenever a new project drops, the hate comes pouring in, but you can’t help but pay attention to the industries’ most-watched men… and besides, look at those fucking streaming/view numbers, bro.
(https://media1.tenor.com/images/e0bf3445926dcb9ee944ed4de192b65e/tenor.gif?itemid=7394843)
Only time I pay attention to Drake is when Meek is exposing him for not writing lyrics or when Pusha T is dismantling him lyrically for being a deadbeat dad wearing blackface. Nyjah does his own stunts no ghost-skater and therefore can be considered one of the best, unlike Drake.
ISHOD = QUAVO (OF MIGOS)
(https://media1.tenor.com/images/dd0ac1f8830cff8d3d28b8cdf6788472/tenor.gif?itemid=5043510)
Shoulda compared him to Biggie cuz of the top notch flow and cuz Ishod is one of the GOATs. Not some mumble rap trash.
PJ LADD = EMINEM
Please do not disrespect da gawd Patrick John by comparing him to that cornball
THE MCCLUNG BROTHERS = MAC MILLER, POST MALONE, & MACKLEMORE
Who are these people
STEPHEN LAWYER = LIL PUMP
“Gucci gang, Gucci gang, Gucci gang! Esskeetit!”
Never heard Lil Pump but this seems accurate
ERIC KOSTON = KANYE WEST
TONY HAWK = DR. DRE
Ok
DYLAN RIEDER = 2PAC
Ehh

One of the most talented producers and beatmakers to ever do it. Up there with Dre and Rza. Despite being insane to a level that I can no longer defend.

Really he probably deserves to be one of the 80s innovators who took it to a new level.
Rodney Mullen is Rakim because they break it down scientifically

I like both actually, sometimes I feel SP's coverage is a bit much. I would say that both dudes had/have similar types of haters - older dudes who dont get why a guy like that is even promoted to begin with.

idk how bonehead was personal but either way im sorry.
also who are these better producers!?! and yeah i think 22 grammys def puts you in the legendary conversation, you dont get that many grammys as a rapper (yess i know the grammys are shit but 22 of them def speaks volumes my guy), weather you like it or not most of his catalog is considered hip hop classics. idk how old you are but since west's inception he's always been at the fore front. idk if its cause your a jedi minds tricks kinda guy but the rest of the world clearly agrees with me. look i dont think he's a better rapper then nas or jay or idk a plethora of dudes, but to act like he has 0 talent or is just all hype comes off as asinine. i dont like lil wayne, i think other ppl do his job alot better but i can clearly see his impact and his talent, i can see what brings to the table. you dont have to like kanye but your gonna look real foolish acting like he's just some regular shmegular artist....
I was replying to bawtawd post!!
I don't think grammys are really representative of artistic quality in music. Something annoying also and never really brought up is the actual guys in the music studios behind celebrities like west. They're pretty much doing 80% of the job. Dude rolls in with a sample and actual very very good studio producers and arrangers do the job.
Anybody who knows a little bit about rap history knows that kanye isn't a very good rapper. Sucessful? definitely. But once you're a celebrity and have access to mass media you can pretty much sell any garbage. And get grammys.....Look where we are now with dudes like lil confetti and little yacht being labeled genius.
What do you do to actual musical genius like Coltrane or Mozart when you call dudes like that the same word?
It's fucking sad.
There's a scale when it come to talent and skills in the trade of music, it has nothing to do with being rich or famous.
All this to say that talking about skills, Koston was way more talented in skateboarding than west in rap.

9th wonder lives across the street from a old friend in a normal house, weird. Everythings cool, its hype that causes problems. When the hype eclipses the talent it makes the talent seem less gooder. Music arguers are the worst.
Its all ding ding dong bing bing bong

As I was reading the article, I kept think to myself, “I hope the author of this article raps it up soon.”

MF Doom got a great ear for samples but he has used some of the worst drum kits in hip-hop. And like 90% of people you listed dont have Kanyes range or longevity.

I agree for doom altough it makes his sound unique. Kanye is talented but overrated and a gigantic douchebag.
He also never ever produce anything remotely as groundbreaking and unique as RZA 36chambers.

rza would never ever produce anything remotely as groundbreaking and unique as the college dropout
this is such a bad comparison, yeah 36 chambers has great production, it's a groundbreaking album and shit, but it's an album from 1993 and hip-hop was way different then than it was in fucking 2004 and later. also, all in all kanye's a better producer than rza, even though rza is good too (btw one of his best beats (dark fantasy) went to kanye).

i would argue that they are more similar than yall are making them out to be. different sounds and a different time for sure but they're similar in their influence - they are both innovators that changed the landscape of hip hop at different times.(rza for the better kanye for the worst? - that would be a more interesting argument atleast) it's just easier and maybe fairer to criticize kanye cause he's a fucking wackjob and came up in the wayne era. i just wanna add that i fucking love a rza beat. they're both top 5 for me. just my 2c
-
Rza innovated hella shit from 93-97, most notably his liberal use of sampling where he would use inaudible hums and syllables as instruments. Without that there's no Kanye or 9th wonder. Thing is he fell off hard when hip hop moved into more polished productions and he had inferior beats to other producers on Supreme Clientele and Nigga Please.
Kanye on the other hand has had top notch shit since 2001 only really fucking up when he goes on his super experimental Yeezus shit. That said I would say Kanye still only squeks by the Rza.
For the record, my list of producers who could body Ye is this
Premier
Dre
Timbaland
Madlib
Alchemist
Neptunes
Organized Noise
9th Wonder
Pete Rock
Just Blaze (on a good day)

also some of those dudes are def not better then west...rza!? GTFO thats someone whose coasted off hype and association. dj muggz!!!!! fuck no. NO I.D.......yes thats west mentor. i would never said kanye is a great rapper, like its obvi he aint lyrically the best or close. my thing is alot of these dudes arent still the type of artist ye is. i feel like your looking at it very black and white and its alot more then just a sound. i mean that nigga ye clearly has a vision alot more deeper then a good amount of the niggas you listed. alot of those dudes are rt two dimensional. amazing producers but lord finesse aint evolved or stepped out his box in never. its the whole package my guy.
i dont care if you like ye or think other niggas are better, i guess you saying "kanye talented? thats a reach" was out of pocket...
i agree 9th wonder,no id,just blaze, premier, and a few other on that list are "better" producers but i still think kanye AS A WHOLE ENTIRE ARTIST is very very talented.
Jesus Christ now you got me arguing both sides. Rzas run from 93 to at least 2001 was unparalleled, genius, game changing production. All the Wu albums and all the solo albums. Dude was on a tear and is still imitated.
You thought Kanye started the chipmunked soul sample trend? He studied Rza for that.https://youtu.be/1th02cIRkmM

niggo go listen to bobby digital,
ok ok ok i mighta went harsh on the rza, hes def a legend in the game and i was talking wayy too spicy lol but idk he made ALOT of trash music too (digital bullet/bobby digital). as for my name and avi i made that shit back in the day when i used to bang wu harder then a white college dude, i still fux with them (they are legends/GOATS/da best/ whatever whatever) but idk the rza a coke head fool and you fucking know it. he got more talent in his pinky then my whole entire body but under that pinky nail is a bump of coke and that shit def be fucking up his music sometimes (eg. albums i listed above)
EDIT:
nvm i take back what i said about RZA, im dumb and played myself. i still stand by my kanye comments but im a damn fool for downplaying the rza. sometimes i just say shit in the heat of the moment. except i was def still right about him being a cokehead

Back on topic: Van Wastell is probably closer to 2pac than Dylan. Both Pac and Van have an oddly high amount of content released after their deaths (there was Van footage in L.S.D wtf). Both also have a high fanbase of people who only know them as dead legends.

It was written was better than illmatic.
Rza was a spaceman, wethead, that's why his style was crazy. Callin him a cokehead like that's a diss or somethin for producing music?
I don't get u guys.
I keep hearing better productions every year too.
So, basically fuck all of you.

hahaha I ALREADY TOOK BACK WHAT I SAID ABOUT RZA! BUT me calling someone a cokehead is def diss i guess and the rza is def one. cokeheads are fucking annoying, idk what slaps stance on coke is but its corny to me and ill take all the hate for saying that. the RZA is amazing and what i said about his production was foolish and dumb, the dude is a genius. i was just trying to defend kanyes talent and i got carried away.
you can be a genius and great at what you do and be a cokehead jerkoff at the same time (eg marvin gaye).

slap's official stance is that we would do coke w/ fred gall

I agree for doom altough it makes his sound unique. Kanye is talented but overrated and a gigantic douchebag.
He also never ever produce anything remotely as groundbreaking and unique as RZA 36chambers.
rza would never ever produce anything remotely as groundbreaking and unique as the college dropout
this is such a bad comparison, yeah 36 chambers has great production, it's a groundbreaking album and shit, but it's an album from 1993 and hip-hop was way different then than it was in fucking 2004 and later. also, all in all kanye's a better producer than rza, even though rza is good too (btw one of his best beats (dark fantasy) went to kanye).

THE MCCLUNG BROTHERS = MAC MILLER, POST MALONE, & MACKLEMORE
Who are these people

Mac is legit and don’t deserve hate , dude pulled jay electronica out of hiding , and he fucked Ariana grande.

Lol. Now if you had gone at his flow and delivery you would’ve got no argument from me. But Rza beats are legendary and the Wu was basically his vision.
