I know I'm going to get hate for this but, as I stated in that other Pusha T/ Jay Z new song thread, Jay Z's new flow kind of sounds like this post-prison Shyne flow to me.
I mean Jay Z's lyrics were cool and everything but he has this weird inflection in his voice now that I don't remember him ever using (and I have been listening to Jigga since he rapped fast like the Fu-Schnickens)
I thought I was the only one noticing that...it's like he's trying to hard to appease to the next crowd instead of just doing that cold Iceberg Slim effortless flow he was known for.. -

This hurts me to post this
When a certain rapper who is a legend , gets shot , loses his voice , Co writes a diss track or two . Then gets jumped and beat up by the same cats he thought he was helping..... Poor Beanie yall -

I think Kristyles was the the last straw.
Yeah KRS is more of a cult leader than a rapper. He has a ? fan base in every major city. He doesn't need a hit single. Just 300 backpackers that are willing to pay $30 to see him freestyle.
His verse on Classic was dope though.
And that recent MC Shan diss was tight.
I still don't believe he dismissed those Bambaattaa allegations and said, "Keep It Hip Hop". You can't keep it any more Hip Hop than that.
I met a legit KRS-One ? rider in 2006.
I'm with this broad over her friends house and her man was there.
All this ? talked to me about for damn near 2 hours was KRS-One. This ? was over 40 years old with gray dreads, talking with voice inflections just like KRS, and let me listen to his music over a KRS beat and he sounded just like KRS rapping....then told me that KRS was having a concert. This ? was exhausting.
I'm like ? ....we in RICHMOND ? CALIFORNIA why the ? do you have an east coast accent and sound like KRS One....?
That ? had weed but after the joints went out I got up outta there.
This ? is hillarious. -

WTF was this niqqa thinking? He lucky it didn't hurt him then, that album was well received..
Tip hurt him by turning him into a gangsta rapper. Flip was on some playa/hustla ? . Tell the truth his best verse is on his screw tape debut n he blew off that..@11:09

Speaking of which screw tapes were starting falling off. Whether it screw being the biggest thing in Texas or other factors the mixtape themselves were lacking because you didn't have favorites like keke pokey hawk and esg contributing to them and the new niqqaz was wack, hell flip just had that shining moment. Zro would've blown up regardless he was just that good..
Bottom line when artist are hungry that's when you'll hear their best work. Very few rapper's still go hard as the first time u hear them. Even fewer have gotten better.. -
Anytime a rapper gets known more for their antics instead of their music, that's when I know they're washed.
Example: 50 Cent. That ? ain't had a hit in YEARS. -

I'm the man is my ? tho -
50 may not have had a hit since 07 but he been dropping some dope mixtapes/albums since

Probably going to get plenty of no signs for this but this was the exact moment Prodigy forgot how to rhyme

When Bussa Buss went from....

Yep. ? was a wrap. Dude can still outbar most folk, but ain't no albums coming from him....or there shouldn't be. -

When Kanye started making poor sounding opera albums...my dark and twisted fantasy -

Nah he did the right thing. Can't always be a clown. I think him dropping that gimmick extended his career. -
Once a rapper gets ko'd on camera his career over
