Idk, couldn't listen to that song. His flow is boring and unsatisfying. He wasn't rhyming half of the time.

I've liked some of his stuff before though. Daydream, and his verse on the Fort Minor album were nuts

[Knicks101]

damn knicks your new avy is so trill

:rockon: This thread is now about Max B. Oww oww.

food & liquor 2 coming soon, he's ready to reclaim the crown.

[Bucket_Nakedz]

I remember when i heard that track for the for first 6 years ago. one of the few times where i had to rewind each verse for about two hours straight.

[Knicks101]

Al please tell us the story of the Pirate who wanted the cool guy to walk the plank.

Yeah, you can have your opinions, but there is and never has been anyone on his level lyrically.

Got 'em in the cut, I can double-back, that's my shit
Had a ***** like "That's my bitch
Damn Biggaveli, I was in love
But since it was you, **** it ***** do what you want
Uh, uh

[Knicks101]

Four star thread, definitely Ace23's best. Will read again.

[MichaelCheazley]

I honestly think canibus is better lyrically. But thats all canibus brings to the table. In bus's prime atleast.

[brownmamba00]

The Coolest>>>what the OP posted. The Coolest if by far his best work.

[Bigsmoke]

I'm a HUGE Lupe fan but he isnt ****ing with Nas or Black Thought lyrically.

[MichaelCheazley]

And how can he be the best when he himself says he refuses to do a track with Talib Kweli due to fear of getting killed on a song.

[Knicks101]

The **** are you guys going on about? This thread is about Max B.

First two songs of his next album, both are pretty awesome if you ask me. Around my way is just :bowdown:

[ace23]

Lupe is the shit, and so is Around My Way, but what the **** was going on in Bitch Bad? Sounds pretty terrible. Maybe it will be nicer after I go study the lyrics.

[Bigsmoke]

double disc album :eek:


Kendrick Lamar, Nas, Lupe Fiasco, Slaughterhouse

[oh the horror]

As society goes on, and everything about any art genre is watered down, it would seem this is evident by the fact that this is what people consider to be a "GOAT" lyricist...


I mean really, broaden your horizons.

What? Man, you should definitely give it a closer listen, it's a quality song.

Man I swear Bitch Bad is awesome.. This song is being 'mocked' by Lupe:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uK5yD4gcjHM&feature=related



Now that's a bad bitch (a bad bitch) {*repeat 4X*}
Girl you a bad bitch (a bad bitch) {*repeat 4X*}

(Trina)
Uhh, you want a bad bitch? Trina's the baddest
And I'm thick and fine from the cornbread and the cabbage, a savage
I would give you my number so you can have this
But I don't need the stalkin, prank calls or the madness
My ass like WHOA, my goodies incred-ible
I'm in this cheerleader skirt, and these legs flexible

Lupe:


Now imagine there's a shorty, maybe five maybe four
Ridin' 'round with his mama listening to the radio
And a song comes on and a not far off from being born
Doesn't know the difference between right and wrong
Now I ain't trying to make it too complex
But let's just say shorty has an undeveloped context
About the perception of women these days
His mama sings along and this what she says
"******, I'm a bad bitch, and I'm that bitch
Something that's far above average"
And maybe other rhyming words like cabbage and savage
And baby carriage and other things that match it
Couple of things are happenin' here
First he's relatin' the word "bitch" with his mama - comma
And because she's relatin' to herself, his most important source of help
And mental health, he may skew respect for dishonor

Dude makes a fair point too..

First verse is about a boy seeing his mother calling herself a 'bad bitch'
Second verse is about little girls watching the video and wanting to be like the video vixens..
Third verse the boy meets a girl like the ones mentioned in verse two and they're idea of a bad bitch conflict because the boy links it to his mother while the girl thinks he wants her to be like the video girls.

Awesome storytelling track and like I said.. he makes a fair point.

[RaininTwos]

remember when lupe could make good songs all by himself without atlantic gifting them to him?
I know man. Lasers>>>>>>>>> than the rest of his catalog.

[ducktape]

lil b

[AllenIverson3]

This a ****in joke

[RaininTwos]

it probably is, but you at least realize that those aren't his songs when you listen to it, right?
:coleman:

obviously. thats why i said it.

[Legend of Josh]

Christ dudes... OMG.

:facepalm

(to the OP)

You haven't "heard enough" to make such a bogus statement. You even KNOW BETTER knowing you haven't been listening to the genre long enough to make that claim.

You were in diapers spitting better shit before you could count to two. Just please, stop.

[Legend of Josh]

Please no offense but white dudes like RainTwos or whatever your name is, I think you are from Canada, and please not trying to start shit, but damn you dudes just need to stop.

You all don't know shit about this shit. That is it. Enough is enough already.

I swear to God I need to puck.

[Legend of Josh]

The thread title in itself proves the OP well beyond anything real credibility on said subject (really, speaking of rap music or hip-hop culture in general) but the kid is nothing more than a product of his time and/or generation (even though, there are some backpackers who actually do legit homework and higher grades in tastes and realize the "above" traits of the music).

I am not trying to really diss you here Ace ... I am just staying, my God dude, just STFU.

[ace23]

You have no idea what you're talking about. I'm going to let you make an even bigger fool out of yourself in your reply.

:facepalm you're so old. just shut up

[Legend of Josh]

LOL, you young fu*ks just have terrible tastes, and to boot you pretend you know something about rap music when in reality you guys are the ones making yourselves look like jackasses.

Fu*king LUPE = GOAT lyricist ... you must be kidding. Please, tell me it's a joke.

ace23 ... man, just stop.

detroitkid... I'll give you some due b/c from time to time you actually post some good opinions etc...

You're right, I am older than you little fu*ks, but that's besides the point... the point here is that the majority of you little twattz are just well beyond ignorant and it's embarrassing to yourselves to claim you know and/or have any worthwhile tastes/opinions about this rap shit.

:no:

[ace23]

:roll: Keep going.
