Rap About Nothing: Hip Hop Chat Thread

Something like that. Seems like most guys who made waves pre 2010's had been rapping for several years before getting that big break. Game was also seen as more a freestyle artist and I believe they put him with 50 as he couldn't really make hooks. It's real unfortunate we never got the G-Unit album with Game shortly after The Documentary. Is what it is though.

 


The rap game is really about nepotism, connections, family, insider access, timing and fronting :lol: (a microcosm of capitalism and America). Game ppls, being signed to Ice Cube and that dude walking game in to Te Money and his ppls. And even Akon/Lil Zane/Boo. And then Dolla and his family connections to the industry ad well. Boy band rapper turnt crip as an older dude. He could’ve been B5.

Adam should’ve asked Te Money about Javaris Crittenton and Young Thug and them. Another dimension.
 
🤦🏾‍♂️

This was interesting.

He can still rap tho lol.

Loon and his family too. The whole
Interview good. I listened to it on a drive a couple weeks back. On a related note, I think Loon said his ppls sent him from Harlem to Hollywood when he in middle school/high school…to live with his Uncle who was big in Movies/Music et as an Exec of some sort.

Loon was saying how his uncle had a crazy mansion, and all the cars and ****. And he was living the fresh Prince of bel air life, but F’d it up when he started banging Mansfield :lol.

Crippin gon wrong
 
Dude being interviewed said he came home from jail or prison in 2000…

Game possibly starting rap in 1998-2001 is very plausible. Whether 3 or 5 years like cmon bruh…


You nitpicking at this point :lol:

The whole he got shot and started rapping in the hospital from his brother bringing him music was always fugazi though and was something that should have been in a movie.

and people can write and rap in private before they let others know. That's normally how it's done.

Bottomline, can't believe anything that man says.

I remember seeing another Loon interview where he detailed that story. Talk about fumbling a bag.

Look really had a lot of chances man.

Can’t hold him for that. From what I seen and heard, he a stand up dude. A 13 year old street ****** moving to Cali with access to foreign whips and a free crib is going to exactly what loon did.

5:40 mark

 
Game is a legend to me for sure. But I kinda look at “legend” status hip hop wise similarly to NBA HOF, a nice amount of folks can get that stamp, and its not necessarily the hardest to achieve….That John C. Reilly fro Chuck rockin aint it tho.
Not every hall of famer is a legend though

That’s why the two things can’t be a 1 for 1 equal comparison
