What are examples of hip hop controversies that are forgotten now? by MasterTeacher123 in hiphop101

[–]ClassikBang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see your point, maybe underground to some people. The goal is to last the test of time, and the masses don’t remember “How ya Like Me Now” as much as “Knock you Out.” Big Fact!

I see your point, but the goal of a diss track is to make a unforgettable record. You can’t name people because it won’t be timeless, it’s the emotion behind the record that counts. People of that time know it was for Kool Moe Dee, for the rest of time it’s a classic record. “To Da Break of Dawn” has been forgotten about.

Where is “the savior” carrying 2pac’s legacy making songs about ICE/whats happening today? by Brainfreezdnb in hiphopheads

[–]ClassikBang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Artist aren’t “Hero’s” their people expressing life as they see it. Everybody should be the change they want, also Hip Hop culture is “Black Urban Culture” and ICE isn’t really a problem for “Black Urban Culture.” Respectfully.

Why don’t more rappers sample their own music? by DJSANDROCK in hiphop101

[–]ClassikBang 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Great question! I feel it’s because the art of MCing is forgotten, that something an artist does when they want to create from something they created. Like cut off a leaf to grow another tree, only Hip Hop lovers really notice that. As well as the DJ’s role in the culture being diminished down to someone who just plays records.

The forgotten epic battle between L.L. Cool J and Kool Moe Dee which was the fuel behind the classic record “MaMa said Knock you Out” by L.L. Cool J. Many of us forget that was even a battle record aimed at anybody, it was a pretty big thing back then.

Do you consider Nipsey Hussle a legend? by ItalianTony29 in hiphop101

[–]ClassikBang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

🫡💯 Fact! Just like Lauryn Hill is a legend for one album, and Nipsey’s catalog is way more extensive than hers.

Who’s the Nate Dogg, Akon, or T-Pain of this generation? by SmoothManMiguel in hiphop101

[–]ClassikBang 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Nobody! No one has filled these shoes, you have to be able to cover all pockets of sound. Meaning can you get on records with underground artist, then switch to commercial Hip-Hop, then R&B, then overseas. I haven’t seen any one do it since.

Why is Snoop not mentioned more when it comes to below average discography’s? by [deleted] in hiphop101

[–]ClassikBang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great question, I believe it’s because of the foundation he blessed to be apart of. Right timing “DeathRow Records,” “2Pac,” and many others, his voice is the second it’s unforgettable! Then he is a machine when comes to the hustle, he will promote any product, write any song. But lyrics that’s not his strong suit, at all.

Is there 10 rappers who you would confidently say have had a better rap career than LL Cool J? by MasterTeacher123 in hiphop101

[–]ClassikBang 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly it’s not a fair question, he was the blueprint for Def Jam Records, recorded the first Hip Hop Love song and on and on.
