Hip-Hop Rumors: Dr. Dre & Eminem's New Artists!?

[Hiphopdane]

I bought Jon Connor's tape a week ago. Apart from a few boring songs this is a really serious appetizer for his upcoming album so I urge everyone to check it out.

Nas wasn't kidding when he co-signed him.

[j04370859]

Eminem has never signed someone who is actually good. I don't even know why he and Paul bother anymore. Signing Royce would have been a good idea...10 years ago.

These clowns like Yelawolf are just proof that Eminem has never had a bearing on what-the-fuck he's doing with his label. I mean, genius Prime-Eminem co-signed 50 Cent...the shit is just random.

soon after EM cosigned 50, we got the undeniable classic called Get Rich or Die Trying
...just saying

Says you. GRODT was not a classic...I don't get why people even say that. Having a good Dre beat In Da Club doesn't mask the fact the 50 Cent is fucking awful rapper. Same with the Many Men beat. His verses on Patiently Waiting are embarrassing, Eminem was barely even trying and he absolutely murdered him.

Like it or not GRODT is a classic.

[Mikey1990]

GRODT is regarded highly because of the great Dre beats and a few catchy choruses. Nothing 50 Cent did on that album was any good.

Yeah, I am. What is appealing to you about some fucking baboon rapping incoherent gangstah-babble? Honestly?

i agree the album is overated
its because of him gettin shot 9 times which made ppl overate it

[stillmatic]

I don't think GRODT ever targeted the white middle class nerd redneck demographic.

So no surprises here with some reviews of it.

[dead prez]

I also think GRODT is overrated and is no better than CII tbh, but that ape/gorilla comment was completely unnecessary.

[MikeBett]

GRODT is a classic....If every album that had Dre beats was a classic...there'd be alot more classics out there..50 Picked the BEST dre beats and made classic songs out of them...Period

Evan C obviously has a racial intolerance issue he needs to address with himself ha..

[robollama]

Are you FUCKING serious?

Yeah, I am. What is appealing to you about some fucking baboon rapping incoherent gangstah-babble? Honestly?

Are you fascinated 50 Cent's insights into everyday life and witty humor yo? His detailed attention to language and perfectionism? Oh wait, no, he's just a dumb ape who was signed by Eminem/Dr. Dre, the ghostwriting/beat-making dream team.

Get off Em and Dre's dicks.... GRODT is an undeniable classic to the vast majority of hiphop listeners. Soo... your opinion really doesn't fucking matter.

Ha...

Has nothing to do with 50 Cent's race. It's actually what he looks/acts/behaves like...I mean, seriously. People worship Patiently Waiting and it's like they've never even listened to 50 Cent's actual verses.

I got scriptures in my brain I could spit at yo dame
Straight out the good book, look, niggas is shook

Cause I'll break yo face
Have yo ass runnin, mumblin to the jake
You goin ‘gainst me dog, you makin a mistake, I'll split ya
Leave ya lookin like the Michael Jackson jackets wit all them zippers
I'm the boss on this boat, you can call me skipper
The way I turn the money over, you should call me flipper

These snippets alone kill the whole "classic" idea.

And we're giving 50 Cent credit for picking the best Dre beats (circa-ten years ago)? Like that's hard, lol? Would we give Dre credit for picking the best ghost-written Eminem verses to rap in 1999?

[Master Chief]

Yeah, the flipper and skipper lines are stupid. So what?

No that comparison was borderline racist and you know that, you might as well have called him a n.igger.

This analogy is so fucking shit it's not even worth responding to, but I do agree with you on the grand scheme of things that GRODT is overrated and nowhere near a classic.

[Evan C.]

Yeah, the flipper and skipper lines are stupid. So what?

If you literally facepalm from lines in a supposedly "classic song" from a supposedly "classic album", the album probably isn't a "classic". An album that carries that lofty a title probably shouldn't have lines that rip you completely out of the moment when listening, and make you realize what an idiot the guy who wrote it is.

Oh hey I guess The Chronic is not a classic because of this line, "If I slip than I'm slippin". I mean really you could do better, not every album has to have MMLP level mceeing to be considered a classic, or how about instrumental albums are they not a classic? I'm not defending tis album btw, but you're doing a terrible job trying to discredit it.

That's wrong. A stupid line should NEVER stop you from liking a song or saying that a song is great.

George W. Bush is a retarded baboon who looks like an ape. 50 Cent is as well. Don't derail the discussion, I wasn't trying to offend anyone in that way (unless you think 50 Cent is good, then yeah, be offended... because you're fucking stupid.)

How is it 'shit'?

[Master Chief]

LOL @ "if you think 50 Cent is good, you're fucking stupid". Please...

Go fuck youself.
