    I can't believe I read that whole piece of shit.

    I think there's actually a retarded strutter and I don't mean that in a facetious manner.

    wow guys........i mean.......just.......wow.

    Da Brat was the most recognizable Chicago Rap Figure in the 90's across the board ..PERIOD..and her representing Atlanta was not intentional ....she mentioned Chicago in every goddamn song ......

    Common ? please .....i see some backpacks showing in this thread


    Crucial Conflict ? LOL !!!

    "They both come from a city whose biggest rap export throughout the 90s was an insufferable granola-munching pseudo-boho."

    Their coordinated leather coveralls may be laughable in retrospect, but they were still a bigger Chicago rap export than Common during the nineties.

    That's all I'm saying.

    And "Hay" was a cool record. Trivia: around the time that "Hay" first came out Andre and Big Boi were on 88.5's "Rhythm & Vibes" (I know you remember that, Ed) to promote ATLiens, and Andre requested that they play "Hay," saying that he thought CC was from ATL the first time he heard the song.

    HA.....everybody thought CC were from Atl .....


    if you took a random survey during the 90's more people would recognize Common ,not CC....but "Hay" would be recognized more than any Common song ...

    but, i mean really ...this is Chicago rap we're talking about, so who really cares

    LUKE!!!!!!!!!

    OK first off Miami is obviously Trick Daddy, at least the late 90s.

    I prob suck for being a new dude to the board bumping old shit but:

    just like a language is a dialect with an army, Common's impact was clearly much smaller than folks here like to pretend. Act like "Po Pimp" was some freak hit single if you want; the reason people here remember Com and not Do or Die is because Com sounded like New York, and Do or Die sounded like the midwest, and just like Bone thugs and crucial conflict and a bunch of other midwest rappers that go platinum and gold they don't get much respect from the critical community out east.

    Do or Die have a platinum album produced by Traxster who also did Twista's adrenaline rush. Do or Die's 2nd album went gold. Common never did numbers like that.

    Common is dope, I like him, but Breihan is way way off on that count.

    I was beginning to think the same thing. "Which was our bigger export, da Brat or Crucial Conflict" = "Does Chicago suck or does it REALLY suck?"

  • deejdeej 5,125 Posts
    Yeah Do or Die and Twista and maybe Shawnna are dope. EC Illa is good. Psychodrama are dope. Traxster's a good producer. Some good backpacker dudes aside from Common, I liked Diverse's album. Lupe sounds pretty good to me. Rhymefest is good live anyway.

    The Chi Bangin' compilations are great even if all the dudes are no-names, there are some incredible rappers on that shit.

    I love that were not even talking about snoozefest or skateboard fiasco after 4 pages of arguing.



    When the fuck is the new bone thugs album coming out?

  • Jonny_PaycheckJonny_Paycheck 17,825 Posts
    dude you have a rick ross avatar

    What if it were revealed next week that he is actually a garbage man

  • deejdeej 5,125 Posts
    That would be an awesome rap persona and would make him way more interesting.

    His whole look has me wondering. Kinda got a "Roc" thing going on.

    This is basically it.

    Dudes on here assume that because they didn't start taking Twista seriously until Kanye cosigned him that the rest of the rap-listening public didn't either.

    Pretty much everyone that actually listens to rap.

    I'm not checking for Lupe or Rhymefest, and I don't have time to engage in a polemical about 'exports', my 2 cents is that Do or Die is the shit. Do I want to hear ' used to love her', 'hay', no. I could listen to 'po pimp' anytime...Matter fact, I'ma throw it on now...ez

    you guys are showing your asses on this... Twista has been around for mad years, has killed it on many a rugged track, and is one of the most purely skilled MCs in the game today... to shit on him because he's made a few (admittedly SOFT) radio jams and gotten paid is real fucked up.

    not shitting on him cause of the radio. I am surprised he actually finally made it being that he was fin to blow 8 years ago when he was the "fastest rapper alive". He has always been a gimmick. paid his dues yes, but always been a gimmick.

    the way I see it, he has always been a sick MC and he went from having a gimmick ("fastest rapper alive") to just being a sick MC.

    Yeah, dude, his career began and ended with that "Girl Tonight" bullschitt--he hadn't been putting in work for a decade plus prior to that.
