Truth 10-02-2008, 11:17 PM I don't see what the big deal is with jeezy. thats just me...
Floyd Sinclair 10-02-2008, 11:20 PM I think rick ross is terrible
th4l3pr3ch4un 10-02-2008, 11:57 PM I think rick ross is terrible
co signed...
i think plies is pretty ****in bad too.
lets see who else...
Mike06j770 10-03-2008, 12:16 AM they're all overrated but they are the only ones selling...
Killa Cam 10-03-2008, 12:38 AM Kanye isnt overrated cuz people know hes not a great MC, hes a great producer.
The Game is the best lyricist out of all the rappers you mentioned, but people hate the namedropping...........yea
never really liked Det. Ricky Rawse that much, aside from him production

Young Jeezy isnt overrated cuz people know hes not lyrical, hes basicly all production.
soulja boy isnt overrated, self explanitory...same goes for plies & lil bow wow who i doubt even know what a multi is, nor do they get one when they hear one.
which brings me to the most overrated rapper, Lil' Wayne. dont get me wrong ima Wayne fan, but C3 lyricly was a step backwards from C2, an the fact C3 sellin so well is almost a slap in the face of how quality C2 was compared to it, imo.
Kobe Bryant 10-03-2008, 01:40 AM Rick Ross album was fire. It was better than C3.
KESSLER 10-03-2008, 06:20 AM Right now, not all time
1. Lil wayne
2. Rick Ross
3. Young Jeezy
4. Soulja boy
5. Plies
6. lil bow wow
7. kanye west
8. The game
Soulja Boy is a rapper?
Lil Wayne is #1, without a doubt. Plies should be around 3rd, he is ****ing terrible.
Addition 10-03-2008, 06:44 AM I agree with Rick Ross, his album wasn't all that imo.
KILLA RIGHT 10-03-2008, 07:16 AM Right Now
Kanye
Lupe
Ti
Wayne

Any serious critic who ranks any of that bunch (save for maybe Bow Wow who didn't always suck, and Kanye who I think people still view as a producer who tries rapping...though that Marco Polo song makes me want to punch BW in the face), is OVERrating them...
And the fact that Chingy hasn't been run out of the rap game forcibly makes him overrated too...
neils7147933 10-03-2008, 09:42 AM Rick Ross album was fire. It was better than C3.
That's like saying "Waffle House isn't that bad. It's better than Denny's...."
Kobe Bryant 10-03-2008, 10:11 AM That's like saying "Waffle House isn't that bad. It's better than Denny's...."
Ha. The Ross album musically is pretty smooth. I like good production. I often eat at Denny's. It's not that bad.
Floyd Sinclair 10-03-2008, 10:27 AM The games on my list because theres people that are callin LAX a classic
I forgot to put lupe fiasco on my list
An overrated rapper aint necessarily a bad rapper, its about how many **** riders they have. Lil wayne has an incredible amount of stans slobberin all over his ****, its sickening when Carter 3 was a 4/5 at best

At best it's a 3/5.
fasman 10-03-2008, 03:18 PM How can you ever mention Lupe's name in such a thread, the guy is a genius and has awesome material out...
Different Strokes for Different Folks I Guess!!!
Jay-Z is the all time most overrated rapper ever...
MetalVomit 10-03-2008, 04:38 PM Right now, Lil Wayne, not overrated as far as sales go, but as for quality of music.
Floyd Sinclair 10-03-2008, 04:48 PM At best it's a 3/5.
Im not tryin to anger anyone but in my opinion i think Carter 3 was a step up from LAX, even though i like LAX just as much, maybe even a little more. Their both around 3.5/5
Killa Cam 10-03-2008, 05:30 PM ^u just inspired a new thread :)

word.
Kobe Bryant 10-03-2008, 10:18 PM Im not tryin to anger anyone but in my opinion i think Carter 3 was a step up from LAX, even though i like LAX just as much, maybe even a little more. Their both around 3.5/5
Nah. It's cool. But to me LAX>C3. C3 was way too average. LAX has more to it. Wayne's album is like one big single aside from a few tracks.

I'll take Game over Bow Wow lol.
Alexis Vastine 10-05-2008, 02:55 AM Soulja boi and gay Jeezy dfon't really count. Eminem seems tio have alot of street cred and from his peers for being the real deal but I don't think he is. Even his underground/early stuff or whatevwer you like to call it. He is good with his lyrics at time but I don't think he is the real deal, just a great white dope. He is Vanilla Ice on speed if ya ask me.
Iamnotausername 10-05-2008, 08:59 AM All of them are overrated as hell. its a sad indictment of where hip hop is atm.
99% of the mainstream is all image. theres hardly anything with any substance any more.
