I grew up listening those bands I mentioned (Tribe, J-Five, The Roots, Eric B. Rakim, Sugar Hill Gang, PE, NWA, Wu Tang Clan). Nobody was calling them out. They were breaking new ground and putting out beats/lyrics unmatched. I'm assuming you grew up in the Young Jezzy era. Check out the old reviews on the guys I listed above. I stand by my post. Jeezy, Lil Wayne, 50 cent and Kanye are sellouts. Especially Kanye. Fair enough Preacher. I grew up listening those bands I mentioned (Tribe, J-Five, The Roots, Eric B.

At least that big a version of it. So why would it stop at that then? Those groups, that is. If you really like those groups you can probably use enough logic to know at one point there was some cat just like you slinging weaksauce reviews around at them before he finally could buy their t-shirt and tell everyone he heard it first or was there at the start. Because it has to start man. THese guys didn't just trump anybody's previous important work and it's pretty likely they never will but what I get tired of is trying to hear some new shit and have some dude at the bottom of the page who just can't leave without comparing it or dropping some ill reference to what hip-hop used to be. Like he knows the rules, or the real formula. Get out of its way. It won't stop (musical derivatives of the past) and it will always be comparable and by the way, you got an album out yet?

It's not an old-timer thing. Go back to the early 80's-Eric B. & Rakim,, then Tribe Called Quest and Company in the 90's, Jurassic 5 and The Roots late 90's into 2000's. Tell me that's not the best hip-hop ever. Maybe you can like both, but I cannot stand some of this new shit. I just don’t understand it. It’s not an old-timer thing.

Lil Wayne/Young Jeezy types are for people who listen to music casually. There is no way that anyone who takes hip hop, or any music seriously for that matter, would listen to that commercial garbage. On a more positive note, this stuff is awesome, never heard of these dudes before. Couldn’t agreee more. Lil Wayne/Young Jeezy types are for people who listen to music casually.
