I think Cube had higher highs, but Scarface had longevity and hadn't done the corny **** Cube done. Plus, Scarface aged better. His flow is pretty much timeless. When Cube started hoping on trends and copying it was going downhill.

Cube should be top 5, and be known as the King of the West.

From Straight Outta Compton to Lethal Injection that run is pretty umatched.
 
Maybe because of acting and directing in Cube's case maybe music became the side hustle and not the concentration

Really high highs musically at a young age. Ventured into tv/film and were just as successful.

Its just crazy to me cause Jay, cube, rakim, and LL are all around the same age but their runs musically are in different eras.
 


IMO it was better to do the Verzuz before to do promotion for the tour.

Cam left out some stuff.

Real messed up in the last bit of the video. Cities pulling out of the tour; as if you didn’t do your research or know what you were getting into hiring them as acts. Prolly an excuse to not negotiate prices
 
These two were going back and forth for years. I would have thought Pete would be beating Serch over the head with the cane if they saw each other.







and Serch brought us...



RIP Subroc
RIP Zev Love X aka MF DOOM


Before Stretch and Bob, the rap show on WKCR was done by Pete and Clark Kent. And when Clark went on tour, he had Richie Rich fill in (I think Rich is his cousin?) which is how Rich and Pete got close.

Maybe Clark’s passing (among others) got these guys letting go of some of the grudges they’ve held for years.

Part of this video is filmed in Clark’s mother’s house….

 
Gunna gotta get off YSL he big enough without them. All the back and forth with him and Thug isn't gonna help his career at this point
 
Thug corny for that,you begged the judge to continue making music with him only for you to throw rocks and hide your hands

Why is he corny if he felt he snitched?

You dudes got your answer

Gunna is his artist.
