If you didn't grow up on the East coast circa 87-95 then you can't comprehend KRS One's impact on Hip Hop. He was the spokesperson for Hip Hop culture when everybody else was just rapping about their cars, hoes and jewelry. He was one of the first, if not the first rapper to really intellectualize what Hip Hop is from an academic standpoint. I saw KRS give a lecture at Harvard University back in 1999. That shows you what kind of respect he gets.
Not to take anything away from E-40. Maybe he gets the same kinda respect on the West coast that KRS gets on the East, but I can't say for sure cause I'm an East coast dude. It's really a coastal/generational thing. -

I mean both are dope, but you talkin about two totally different lanes... two totally different styles of rap.
88Mike Tyson vs. Bruce Lee lol.. I mean it's like apples and oranges... what do you like better shrimp or pizza? ? I like both.
That ? in that Bruce Lee thread was some of the stupidest ? I ever read, unless your putting gloves on Bruce and in a boxing ring with boxing rules then it's not even worth debating, it's not close, there's no maybe if this happened or that happened, Tyson wouldnt even get a jab in
damn it's ? up you missed the entire point I was trying to make. I mean damn out of all that ? I typed all you got out of it was a comparison I made between two good fighters in both of their respective sports? you ignore the point so much just to analyze that. c'mon homie, if you can appreciate both then what is the problem? that's all I was trying to say.
? u catch feelings for I wasnt even going at u I was just letting it be known how I felt about that statement, unless u were one of the ones co signing it -

LMAO everytime I come back to AHH I see nothing has changed. Gencutter I thought you were better than this, this is straight comedy lol. 40 invented slang. Kinda invented that weird but dope fast flow. Great hustler. Stayed relevant. And I'm a big fan actually, he's creative and dope. But KRS killed a guys CAREER. Was rhyming off the head killing people (Melle Mel, Biz, Shante Latin Quarters 1987) when MCs wasn't doing that yet. Pioneered gangsta rap. Flow on Poetry became the structure of modern rapping along with Rakim Eric B For President flow. My Philosophy sums up the rap industry in three verses back when no one was even talking to fans on that level. He did change with the times too, his best album was 93, he came out in 86. His albums were quality through 97. Nobody else, except maybe LL, can say that. He (and Chuck) made it cool to have knowledge in the hood, an almost impossible feat. And most of all, how many people copied/were directly influenced by 40s flow? When you hear Redman, Monie Love, Queen Latifah, Busta Rhymes, Chubb Rock, Ice Cube, MC Ren, Phife, 50 Cent, Jeru, Wise Intelligent, Chuck D you have heard KRS' influence. What MCs has 40 influenced? KRS impact is much much greater historically, he upped rap's vocab and flow on a bigger level than 40, even 40 respects KRS influence you can google interviews he says so. KRS is old and arrogant but hes one of the biggest pioneer/legends hip hop has if you too young to respect it do some research. -
