Rap About Nothing: Hip Hop Chat Thread

[kickvicisous]

I mean we've seen multiple instances of younger artist claiming to not be familiar with older artist music or even careers. Is that really a shocking statement?

Being called old is used as an insult in this genere

Wavey just posted a picture of ?uest drumming for him

 

[wavycrocket]

Him performing on Fallon means he's familiar with Questlove and the Roots?

Yeah. If he didn’t know who quest love is, he wouldn’t have made a deal out of it.

And obviously, you just don’t roll out with a live band without rehearsal or meeting the damn band .

A 30 year old man who’s been trying to rap for the last 12 years is certainly familiar with Questlove or the roots . Dude is just trippling down like crazy into idiocy.

Bro honestly seem like he loving all the attention and ****

 

[balldontlie206]

He is really not "younger." He is damn near 30.

 

[kickvicisous]

Guess most of these performers are lying when they claim that.

 

[MajinZuub]

My little brother is 26 and knows who ?uestlove is. Even if you don't know the music he's pretty iconic at this point.

Jay-Z & Will Smith Invest In A Company Aimed To Help People w/ Low Incomes Go From Renter To Home Owner - HOT 97

May not be familar but a QUICK google search would familiarize these idiots. But the same way they dismiss older musicians, 10-20 years from now, a lot of these cats will be forgotten too. Ironically

Honestly, Dababy not knowing who Quest is makes complete sense. He's a good rapper, but he has absolutely no range. Megan thee Stallion as well. She doesn't know Questlove either. You can't be familiar w/ The Roots & have absolutely no range in your flow, beats, or subject matter. There's no way. Hell, I think it would be worst if he did mess w/ The Roots.

 

[wavycrocket]

This don’t really mean nothing if this is Fallon lol

Cmon dawg . I’m not saying he familiar with the roots catalog or even knows much about questlove. But it’s flat out lying to say he don’t who the ***** is .

You don’t just do live performances without meeting the damn band and main drummer. The ***** searched Questlove’s Instagram. Screenshoted a post. Then posted it to his story to say he don’t know him

That’s a lot for somebody you claim you’re not familiar with, who you’ve actually been on stage performing with and have obviously met.

*****s just be lying and trollin . You see it all the time. This is common “rap cap” as y’all call it.

Dudes on damn near every doc and show to talk about music and just put a doc

and it's hard to forget him with his signature look

I think he's trying to say he's irrelevant as some sort of diss, but Questlove is like the public spokesman for rap and this generation of music
