WTF is this?!

In the joint they call these kiddies fresh fish.

Okay but there are still some good rappers. Snoop is still going strong, Jay-Z is of course blowing up the charts constantly and then.. There's Kanye. Who is widely hated, but you gotta give him credit, he sells records.

But I guess Snoop and Jay falls into the 90's rappers category. If we should be talking about anyone's CDs I think they deserve a thread more than T.I.

And not everyone is a Soulja Boy rapper. Cause damn, he stinks. and dude, remember the Stanky Legg? Phew, thank God that song was merely a flash in the pan.

Exactly. I saw this thread title and thought, "there may be never have a been a thread topic I cared less about than that." (Aside from all the video game threads).

I, too, am a 90's hip hop guy myself. Still listen to it all the time, especially in the gym. TI? Yeahno.

Considering a recent thread asking why there aren't more open lanes at Walmart made it to its fourth page, I kind of think its anything goes at this point in the PL.

i got chuckles when i would ask them about true underground hip hop guys like brother ali or mf doom and they wouldnt have a clue to who they were.

t.i. is one of the better radio rappers though.. if you pay attention to more than his MTV music anyways

I think they'd rhyme circles around TI (but this is just imo, of course).

Funny you mention Doom too... dudes got crazy lyrics and wordplay. But I liked his delivery a lot more when he was with KMD. He just sounds real monotone and off-beat nowadays.

aww time to put on my backpack

IT is trash bro

Snoop has sucked for over half of my lifetime.. a bit before he went to No Limit

kanye is embarrassing to rap

T.I. is more credible than anyone there in the last 15 years other than Jay

I especially can't stand hearing 50cent but that's another story . I also like listening to a lot of underground rap from the 90's so I ain't hating on you :cool-smil

lol funny you said that b/c g unit and 50 signed rappers were the guys i was forced to deal with. spider loc, hot rod and a bunch of other bammas. kurrupt, gail gotti were cool and this hip hop band from san jose i forget the name of.

I enjoy his music, like I said I put up the thread because It's news to me. I like T.I. and I have no way of knowing what anyone here might like so I made the thread because I enjoy his music. I'm sorry if you don't like T.I. and made you come on here and type about how this thread is a waste of time nd bla bla bla (but apparently coming to a thread that you don't like and replying isn't a waste ) I've seen some crazy threads on here like that Walmart thread that was mentioned and when I see a thread that I think is stupid or that doesn't interest me I dont find the need to go on there and type about how I disaprove the thread but thats just me. If it doesn't interest you I believe you have the option to not open the thread or even reply but to each his own I guess if it makes you happy to . I promise I won't post about T.I. any more and I'm sorry for the huge inconvenience it was just something that was of interest to me but I'll try to keep it up to par with the other PL threads

Yeah it's always funny how someone will waste time posting to tell you what a waste a thread is.

But how will I know how stupid a thread is without someone telling me how stupid it is?

[MTK]

When you see a thread with no replies, I think that tells the story
