Well Like Jay-z said is all about the money, they are selling a product, so it doesn't really need to have a soul.

Ah yes, Jurassic5, to tell you the truth i found them thanks to Chali 2na being in, being? ha, no, no, he owned that track, even if his verse was not that long compared to Mike's, definitively my favorite track of theirs, i am talking about FRGT/10, by Linkin Park - Reanimation, so i said damn what is this? i had to know more, and so i found Jurassic5.

SnowThaProduct, mmh i really haven't paid that much attention to female rappers, at best Missy Elliott. I will search more about her, eventually, haha.

Hmm, so musicians sell their souls to get famous. :)

Linkin Park - Reanimation is probably the record of theirs I've listened the least to... can't recall that collaboration at all. Good knowing. :P

Ah, Missy Elliott, the one who paved the way for pretty much all female rappers! It's strange, but it seems like thanks to her female rappers have become hostile towards other female rappers, I don't think I've ever heard a collaboration between two different female rappers, it's like they're all trying to be the only one. Anyway, here's a taste of Snow: http://youtu.be/SdMFkuconFQ

What about Salt & Peppa? haha i know too old.

Haha that's my fav album of theirs followed by Hybrid Theory, then Meteora, and then they start dying. Sure there is the Collision Course with Jay-z but... that is more like a farewell album, then they do what they did...

Interesting, but i can't relate, that is probably why i don't listen to female rappers, and other genres like ballads and such, it just doesn't touch me, i'm not to saying that she is not good, but the theme doesn't touches me, and is not only with female rappers, a lot of rappers pass me by, for example i recognize that Common is great, and that without him a lot of progress in Hip-Hop would been lost, but damn is he corny.

Oh man, didn't remember them! I actually have an old tape of theirs, A Salt with a Deadly Pepa. Guess they might be the first ones. :) They had really funky music back then, I love the old Dj Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince, LL Cool J and Run DMC records, it's a sound that still holds today, even if the lyrics weren't as complex as they are now.

Yeah, Hybrid Theory was awesome. I like their new style too though, even though it's so different, it's like they've morphed into a completely new band.

Common too common? :P Actually never listened to him, will do that. Ah well, guess it's a matter of opinion. I don't relate to the lyrics per say, but I relate to the emotion, emotional display adds a lot to a track IMO.

Doomroar 2013-11-06 20:27:01

Oh yes it does, but when it doesn't get you, it just doesn't get you.

For example the new Linkin Park sound doesn't gets me.

Cyberdevil 2013-11-06 20:27:01

I get you. :P

Doomroar 2013-11-07 21:34:26

You are kidnapping me!?

Cyberdevil 2013-11-07 21:34:26

Haha, I get what you're saying. :P

Doomroar 2013-11-08 03:13:32

Haha.

Cyberdevil 2013-11-08 03:13:32
