you and Kendrick Lamar tho

ItsModella:
wallahi, you understand what's up. Kendrick Lamar na the koko, he's the only rapper worth listening to now.

goldfish80:
Bro your list aint complete without Big L,RUN-D.M.C,The Fat boys,the Cold crush Brothers,Sugarhill gang.....

Lol....dats why I said u can add urs 2 d list......anyway those listed I have d complete discographies...try'n 2 update my libary 4rm ur list.......lol

victorv12: How can Em surpass Ice Cube, DMX and Easy ?! Bro, Easy's boys alone, BG Knocc out and Dresta, Em can't match them...Again,Ice-Cube...Cube is 'FLAWLISS'!!

I can compromise to that of X because I know the dude is always highhhhh which I still doubt em can battle!

I will like you to watch these videos on Youtube:

Easy E - Real Compton City G's / Dr Dre' s Diss!

Ice Cube - King of the Hill/ Cypress Hill Diss

You can compare these tracks to all em's best diss tracks!!

Its just like when kung fu students surpass their master.
I thought we were talking freestyle battle, but let look at it this way Ice cube was floored by common, most of easy e's songs were written by ice cube, brother the internet grants you access to countless rap analysis read them up and listen again. Em is good but mot the best though, even kool g rap said Em was the only rapper of this time that impressed him but thats his own opinnion sha. Eminem is a rap fort, i get were ur coming from though but Em for me still rocks my boat.

Monimatic: Glad to know most people on this thread are fully aware that hiphop is right now in a state of bull sh**t.
But you guys aren't mentioning one of the greatest but under rated rapper/lyricist of all time, real hiphop heads know this guy, his name is AZ, he is NAS partner in rhyme right from the days of illmatic. He was featured on several Nas tracks such as“life is a bi**h” and “the flyest” he was also a member of Nas' group called the FIRM where they released a Dr Dre produced critically acclaimed single called “Phone Tap”.
AZ aslo featured Nas in the Grammy nominated single called “Essence”,

AZ was voted by fans worldwide and rap critics. on www.about.com as the No 1 underrated lyricist and underappreciated rapper of all time. His abulms are always critically acclaimed, he and Nas are regarded as the best combinational rappers ever. Some of his abulms are
Aziatic
Do or Die
SOSA
Piece of a Man
AWOL
The Format
9 Lives
Legendary
Undeniable
Just google. “AZ rapper” to know why this guy is respected by real hiphop heads in America, also try googling “Nas featuring Az life is a bi**h mp3 download” when you get the link downlad and listen to AZ spitting. You can aslo download other. AZ tracks such as
Az featuring Nas - Essence
Nas featuring Az- Flyest
Az - uncut
Az - Sosa
Az. featuring Nas - Mo Money Mo Murder

black broda, u didnt go thru d posts in dis thread.
i already mentioned AZ twice!!
in my opinion his do.pest album is 'DOE OR DIE'.... u wrote d wrong spelling of DOE.
And hey u 4got to mention SUGAR HILL among his ill tracks, dats a smoking joint mehn.
u deep bro.

who wrote this ish? Don't hip hop got the right to evolve or you expect her to stay stagnant? Negro get your mind right!

Jordanmusa: who wrote this ish? Don't hip hop got the right to evolve or you expect her to stay stagnant? Negro get your mind right!

Bros. If hiphop heads dey talk...try nor dey talk....stay mute.... .!


U've got a right 2 ur views though......

victorv12: I can't laugh...Who said Eminem can murder any MC in a rap battle?! Guys, when I hear statement like this, it makes me want to puke...Em is good, no doubt, but do you guys ever listen to Kool G rap and MOP( Billy Danze & Lil Fame)! Mahnn, I know Em can murder Kendrick Lemar,Drake and some new cats out there, but not these MC's I mentioned. In fact, I know female MC's that can slaughter Em!!!

Where is ma Nigga Ice-cube?! So Eminem can murder Easy - E too ?! The list of rappers that can murder Em in a rap battle is enormous!! Where's my NIGGA Method man?! Damn! Some of these Nairalanders knows S H I T about hip-hop!! DMX, where ur at?!!

take it from me bro: Em would murder all ^^^ them cats u mentioned including KOOL G RAP!!!
The only rapper i wouldn't place with Em is BIG L in his prime (livestyle of da poor n dangerous era).
Secondly BDK might give Em a tie.
who d fvck is EASY E?!! Dont make me laff bro.
derz a different aura n spirit dat rap battling has n real rap heads understand dis.
being better in a rap battle doesn't tell who d overall better rapper ... its complex.
DMX?? wtf?!
i take it dat u don't understand d mathematics of lyricism.
talking about some folks don't know rap? true. but if u referring to me, then u got a long way to go.... I'm on anoda level bro.
real recognize real n d real rap heads here know themselves.
ur only worthy mention is CUBE n dat was way back in death certificate era.
think about it.
pls note i don't like Em, but he a psycho.

i feel u.
but let's not compare diss track.
lets check their abstract lyrical complexity .... Em is a beast on dat level.
remember, rap battling has nothing with realness... again, Em got humour which is a good factor.

Mr.Nazreal:
Ur d reason y most Nigerians dnt know sh*t 'bout 'rap'....
Eminem's rules: *dnt let him go 1st* *dnt let him go 2nd* *dnt battle Eminem* or jux ask Jay Z....
Damn! google 'Kings of Freestyle battles' and youtude 'Em with Tim westwood' and watch him slay wack dudes!!! Jeez! who's DMX, Ice Cube? !!!lmfao!!!

preach on!!

goldfish80:
Bro, your rap cred is tyte,My respect. Only a select few hiphop fans with the prophetic mind can see what ure saying. There are people Eminem dare not!I repeat Dare not! battle with on Freestyle. Easy E is one of them,Ice is one of them. Those guys can murder b!tchees on the MIC.Even Eminem has people whom he is loyal to. Once again My respect bro

Kingsintei: -The best way i can discribe hip-Hop of nowadays is a "disaster",so irritating-with wrack rapper pretending to be pac or BiGGie_ they hang around their neck hundred of chains (2chain) and make chips that seems like a brazzers video.

-But wat i worry most about is that the new generation of people take this shit like the real key to hip-pop,

-nowadays when some one meet a rapper the 1st thin he asks him is where are ya cars and the lyrics no more....{Bleep ybnl 4 that}coz they kill hip-pop the moment they sing trash

Now snoopdogg and some big time rapper is becoming unbecoming, and it seems like no one cares about the music anymore and all they all wanna sing about is money all alone, even when money don't feel them,and some does'nt look like money holder (Drake)

-I wonder when they pass-on who will be there to recite the crap those imposter made and call that line or whatsoeva.

Nas wasn't joking when he said, 'Hip Hop is dead'.

Bro,ure one hellova noise maker! Am on different bars with you.I don't get this your circus act @all.if ure on the prophetic level as myself(with humility ), you would see that Em on his prime CAN'T go toe to toe with ICE!
Bro,Ice was the most talented member of NWA,even Dre wasnt within arms lenght of him. Go listen to the diss track No Vaseline, then come back let's talk.

Porthable: Seriozzlly?? U just talked about kendrick like dat?? Have u heard his album?? Then go back and listen to the track in order and u knw what i mean if u still doubt him just try and get any of his mixtapes like "compton unrealsed"

Don't you get?
I mean Kendrick is the best
you may forget the rest

oh boi kool g rap is better than eminem oh.

To my brothers saying that I'm trying to mislead Nigerians regarding their taste for hip-hop, let me tell you guys the truth, you can't force me to like Kendrick Lemar,Eminem, Lil Wayne, Drake etc! There are differences between Rap and Hip-hop! Eminem doesn't possess some of the major rap skills that I like to my view. The moment a rapper wants to deliver and clown himself at all cost to gain attention from the audience, it doesn't sounds or looks well to me. Which of you guys can mention any Soul, Blues and Funky beat Em has busted to?! Eminem entered the industry when the game was over!! The height of hip-hop was around 91 to 96, after that era, suddenly, everybody went commercial. You listen to many bubble gum raps like Em and bling blah lifestyle of Birdman and his goons( hot boys)! Em is good to a point, but he's just a rapper and Kendrick is just a pop act, just like Kenya!

You guys got to feel this track:

Kool G Rap - I Am (2011)

the music is our proof that Nigeria needs a rebirth.cant just believe it when I heard d dagrin songs after his death.nigeria is really in a mess.this gutter music proceeds from gutter minds and gutter spirits.even fela the hemp smoker was prophetic ,was recording events and u play fela music and get an history of how it has been wit Nigeria in times past.these hip hops ,these babalawo spiced nollywood films shows we are in trouble

money-hungry :

my point exactly!
Em can murder almost ANY rapper in a rap battle.
but then again, a rap battle isn't d OVERLL basis factor for rating.
D better rapper is he who is not just a do.pe lyricist but he who can paint REAL n vivid pictures that folks can relate to... in clever n creative form.
for example, lets compare nas's 'rewind' n eminem's 'stan'. these two songs are about story telling.
both were nice but nas was more creative n deep.
i mean dat ni.gga told a whole BACKWARDS! !!
damn!!, datz track was first of a kind in rap.
nas said "shoot, please don't"
rewind that ^^^ line back n see why they call him ESCO.

Its "shoot don't please" bro

Bro, ure on point like a (.) Em is gσσd to α point,but just can't understand the hype arnd here like he's the best thing since sliced bread. Dude be runing around with his white hair dissing below average kats like Fred durst,Ray Benzino,Dj lethal,taking cheap shots at Everlast on his bad heart condition... Give me break!!!
I love Em' bur I can't take you serious if serz if you say he can go toe to toe with Top Dawgs like Ice,Method,Big L,even JOEY CRACK!! Yea I said it!

DICKtator: Kendrick Lamar

daz all...............

that's right,listening to section 80 and gkmc makes me feel proud of being a young man in this generation cos kendrick is a real spitter and he tells stories,his lines are drugs and the guy is phenomenal,he is this generations 2pac,biggie and nas combined and don't get me wrong,am not saying he is like them cos they are all better than him but kendrick really studied their music before writing anything and he learnt from them

really?really?,comparing one of the best rappers to these underground mediocre never do wells,em brought the shock factor to hip hop,he was the guy that runs after a beat the way usain bolts runs to a finish line,he talks about his struggles on most of his tracks,he tells stories of himself and has one of the best flow i have ever seen...............i know i don't a lot about old school rap cos am 17 but dude give em some credit,he is the tiger woods of rap.
