They've been nominated for Grammy's for best Comedy albums and as Geno mentioned, have a 3rd album on the way, and yes, this is the first single. These guys are serious about what they are doing, in a funny way.


The fact that they were nominated for the Grammy's as a comedy album and not a rap album is really the only point that matters and proves that they are in fact, not legit.

They are certainly becoming more of a group than an act though.

No...they aren't a legit rap group. They are a comedy group who's medium is rap. The only point I was making is that a Lonely Island feature is not even in the same realm as a Rihanna feat.

You are arguing semantics here. What is the definition of a legit rap group?


There's no semantics here. If you honestly think that Lonely Island is a legitimate rap group and are trying to be taken seriously as rappers then I don't know what else to say. This is common sense bro.

yes they are obviously a rap group. they are a group...that raps. but on the other hand they certainly know that they are not good and they are doing it for the laughs. its like stand-up in rap form

I think what Geno meant was that since Numb isn't a serious song and the fact that Em didn't spit a serious verse (same could be said for C'mon Let Me Ride as well) that you guys shouldn't judge it so harshly. With that, I would agree completely because it's true. You guys are taking a song about fucking around and taking drugs seriously. And Em spit according to content. Take out the butt police line and the verse isn't anything embarrassing at all.

Now, if Em gave us a whole solo album of lackluster verses then that would be when it's right to say Eminem sucks. But really, if you take out Numb then Richard, Here Comes The Weekend, and C'mon Let Me Ride are good verses on average to shitty songs. Em spits perfect to content in each song so I don't know why everyone is crying.

Are you guys fucking serious lmfao like 5 pages arguing whether it should be taken seriously or not as a hip-hop song? If you couldn't convince Class 3 pages ago I seriously doubt several reiterations are going to make a difference.
