    hiphop fans nowadays have that fast food mentality. Future drops 10 "albums" in one year and they try and label each tape a classic. meanwhile the ? has no impact.

    look how they treat lil wayne now. poor wayne couldnt even get out the first round in Stews thread against big Krit. a ? who is basically a mixtape rapper. i dont like to dab in southern affairs but damn.

    Krit wouldn't had beatwayne anywhere else lol just here.

    ? basing their musical outlook on millions of casuals then come here wondering why the outlook isn't the same this site ain't for casual listeners

    ? you can ask that any other hip hop board and Wayne would win lol . The reason always has a bias to rappers who are not as mainstream as others.

    Yea he's been out 25plus years it b ashamed of it didn't

    So why aren't there any threads about other rappers from 25-30 years ago?

    What about that thread about Melle Mel thinking he's better than Jay Z

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RoOs26gy1PM

    Cool keep naming more.

    8 pages, not one about music

    Sonned yourself

    I understand why y'all think it's debatable but it's not

    50 cent is relevant, is his music

    I think we can all agree irrelevant was the wrong word to use

    Yeah of course Dr. Dre is not "irrelevant". Thats decided. Its not his heyday but he's not some nobody. Even though it's not his heyday he's probably the biggest and most famous Producer in Rap history haha. His name still rings bells and people would still work with him. But there is the thing of him not Hcoming out very often.

    How you a mod with this shity view of rap

    in a thread about relevance lil Wayne can't put out a album

    lil Wayne can't​ string together 2 good back to back verses

    not album not mixtapes Or singles but verses

    Lil Wayne has been musically washed and irrelevant for a long time

    I guess I'ma speak for the people who voted for Krit

    If I am a unbiased fan and I like both artist and we have to go by "relevancy of good music"

    Lil Wayne is dead and stinking Because he hasn't put anything out that's musically relevant in a long time but Krit has

    Like dam lil Wayne has a good verse on solange album and chance the rappers for a ? still putting music out what kind of ? is that if y'all ? Gona be feeble and going to go with the " what have you done for me lately" ? then you can't ? complain about ? voting for Krit over Wayne

    Bout 8 months ago dre surpassed 15 mil records sold off 3 albums alone.

    Jay did 55 mil with 12 albums dre wouldve been on that pace had he kept releases going. We all know how anticipated detox was.

    Like it or not beats by dre and the nwa movie kept him relevant n ppl continue to purchase his music. Everytime u watch a vid of your fav radio dj on youtube u see Dre's name on their ears.

    Anderson paak who was on compton spoke about how dre does a lot of work but barely releases anything n being on the compton album opened a lot of doors for him.

    Yall can spin it however ya want.

    Bottom line, if Dre called any MC in America and said, "I want to produce your album" that MC would be a fool to say no.

    We using the dinosaur that is local radio as a bar for relevance now? We evolved into so many music mediums and your going to use the radio to question relevance the same radio that's being strangled by music corps to pump out their payola tapes.

    I don't here Cole on the radio like that but the ? sold a milli with a album that can only relate to a small population of people

    ? weak ass argument getting worse and worse

    Lmaooo @ cole album only relating to a small amount of people. What album is that? What the ? are you talking about? Cole was across the world selling out outdoor venues

    I'm on the IC, I'm online. I don't know what Dope is. Never seen it online, never heard it on the radio... you jumping around looking for an opening that don't exist

    What does Cole selling millions have to with his album relating to people?

    I didn't know millions of people had dead drug dealing homies with daughters that ? ain't relatable to 99% of the people that brought it


    And that's literally the whole album unfortunately I relate to the album about 90% but if I didn't I couldn't feel I huge majority of the album that ? speaks to me

    I never heard dope until the ic either but I also wasn't checking for the t.iI'm not even close to the biggest t.i fan but it has 12 million views so that's on me not t.i you can't hope music Gona find you


    And how the ? you Gona tell me to choose my words carefully and your ? ass said jazzy PHA out of all people is more relevant than Dre foh

    Drake ain't a rapper

    As for the other ? , if all you got from that album is a dead homie and his daughter, you missed it

    Meanwhile every time one of y'all weak arguments fails, ? on point see you jump to another one

    Jazze pha produced moolah with new artist 27 mil
    Dre produced Dope with established Rap veteran/star 12 mil

    You ask "is Dre a relevant producer in 2017"

    I say " is Jazze Pha" ;)

    Bottomline is the man can say hes going to work with anybody poppin at any given day and people will check for it regardless. Nobody would dare say Prince Michael Jackson The Rolling Stones are irrelevant just because they havent released material in a while. Gotta show respect for their work and the milestones theyve achieved. But for some odd reason Hip Hop fans in this era dont give a damn.

    @sapp08_2001 just shut the thread down with this gospel. New ? not gonna like it but you can't deny the truth :+1:

    Its all good let them have their opinions. Real Hip Hop fans know whats up.

    Dre getting named drop and doing work with arguably the best "new generation" rapper in the game

    Jazzy PHA had a hit song with a one hit wonder that nobody's knows I thought that was a future or a young thug song I never knew who young carbon copy was until now you just took away the only song by young thug I thought I liked
