    What rappers do you thing are Overhyped by internet rap fans. My vote goes to Canibus. Dude no where near as good as people hype him up to be and he can't write songs for ? .
    Then why did heavyweights fear him?

    Feared Canibus? lmaooo He WAS ill for about a 2 yr span, but even then, he was never feared.. He was Eminem´s punching bag for about 2 yrs... Then u seen what Diz did to em, prolly the worse body bag in battle rap history...

    Bis da GOAT.

    Two short lines can have a deep meaning.

    Behind the Rose Line, 'Morals and Dogma' that rhyme
    To climb one of three peaks of Mt. Hermon during my lifetime
    (Father Author Poor Pauper)
    In certain circles, some kind of occult or esoteric significance is ascribed to the Paris meridian (Rose Line); sometimes it is even perceived as a sinister axis. Dominique Stezepfandts, a French conspiracy theorist, attacks the Arago medallions that supposedly trace the route of "an occult geographical line"; to him the Paris meridian is a "Masonic axis" or even "the heart of the Devil."

    Gilgamesh passes near Mount Hermon in the Epic of Gilgamesh, where it was called Saria by Sumerians, "Saria and Lebanon tremble at the felling of the cedars".[5][6] In the Book of Enoch, Mount Hermon is the place where the Grigori ("Watcher") class of fallen angels descended to Earth. They swore upon the mountain that they would take wives among the daughters of men and take mutual imprecation for their sin (Enoch 6). The mountain or summit is referred to as Saphon in Ugaritic texts where the palace of Baal is located in a myth about Attar.[7][8]

    LOL.

    Blasphemy, uninformed one.


    A hundred times nicer than the best is
    Twice as arrogant as KRS is, who wanna test this
    (Beasts from the East)

    All the "Legendary" Hip Hop figures were launching out at him from KRS-One, LL, Davey D, members of BDP, etc. They even got Pun to go at him. Didn’t know that one did you?

    1996 - beast from the east - canibus says I'm twice as arrogant as KRS is

    1996 - once again/word perfect - krs responds to canibus remark
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ui8ddiBS90k

    1997 - ??? - krs and dubb c (truck turner) make more disses towards him on dj honda lp
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=YkdIEBQEBKc

    1998 - skit - canibus debut lp has skit with older washed up desperate sounding rappers i.e. krs, dubb c

    1998 - can i ? - truck turner - disses canibus back
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ib-oP3c6BTE

    1999 – horseman from 2000 BC - canibus whole verse is directed at ll, krs, truck turner as being a evil/sinner rapper

    1999 - symphony 2000 - krs big pun kool g rap truck turner...only bigpun and krs diss by name...(bronx isnt little in response to his line on (I honor U), h.i.v.)
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=8IkatyN6TxQ


    2001 - boxcutta bladerunner - canibus says "Old school rappers I wouldn't be around without/ain’t got ? to say, but keep putting albums out"/ krs
    It's up to him..Canibus is the newcomer.. KRS already stated that he's ready to go and he would end his career. Plus KRS has proven himself to be the ultimate representation of hip hop when it comes to battling and wrecking microphones. I'm telling you from the bottom of my heart Canibus is way too scared to go head up with KRS-One.
    http://www.daveyd.com/krsonenews.html

    So when he said this:
    "I've been dealing with hate since 1998"
    (Kriminal Kindness)

    It was true.

    Eventually KRS and Canibus worked together

    This is funny, since it's coming from somebody that worships 2pac like he's the second coming of Jesus. I bet you hold cult ceremonies where you repetitiously chant his name around a ring of fire.

    To answer the t/s question though I seriously think some rappers are over hyped by online stans.

    Odd Future - go to reddit. they swear by Odd future. it's the weirdest thing.

    Joe Budden - for all the hype people give him online, his Padded Room album only sold 15,000.

    Meek Mill - never heard of him in the real world

    Childish Gambino - again, reddit swears by him. he's alright. but he doesn't do anything to separate himself.

    Hopsin - never heard of him until i read his name in a youtube comment under an odd future video.

    MF Doom - how many casual music fans have ever heard of him or anything he's ever done?

    Lupe Fiasco - when you get all this hype online, but it never translates into sales, your internet hype is greater than real life marketability.
