Black Hippy X Slaughterhouse

[Man1x]

despite Black Hippy's great lyricism, they rhyme like pre-schoolers.

What tracks are you looking at? Honest question.

This will be epic, fuck all you Slaughterhouse haters & naysayers, just cause they have 3 poppy lead singles people think they've fallen off, thumbs down.

They have fallen off.

Any artist(s) who haven't got the creativity or the balls to do something original with a single, and still make it popular, is a lesser / generic artist.

I mean, cash? really? a track about cash?... it's fucking ridiculous. They're not creative.

I hope the rest of the album is good but there's no excusing their bullshit so far.

Cash, private jets, and fast whips. 100% original.

Making it rain in a strip club. 100% original.

Lmao.

Exactly though right, I mean... the fact these guys, when they came out and even recently ffs have the audacity to talk about the state of rap and cliches etc. when they're putting out that now.

How can they have the fucking cheek. When they thought up the content for those singles, well, not a lot of thinking involved, why didn't they go "c'mon guys, seriously?" I mean, what the fuck. Artists have such shit ambitions these days, sell themselves short, and for what? it doesn't even work now.

I mean, think about "Time 4 Sum Aksion" / "Role Model" / ""I Can" - these are fucking singles, and they're very well known in hip-hop, they did something. These guys want to make 'that' kind of a mark with "Throw It Away"? - and everybody excuses it like "oh it's just the singles" but no, it should be the opposite: the singles should encapsulate and represent the album, not degrade it.

Think about "Guilty Conscience" - that's like, a fucking album-track concept record, which was released as a single, and had a video! it also did pretty well, helped shape Em's early career, reinvent Dre and it caused a stir. A song like that is what hip-hop should do: exceed and flip expectations, do something out of the ordinary and change standards.

Now, everybody just writes three cash-packed-women-packed verses and gets a catchy hook. I thought we were moving beyond this around 2009. Welcome back 2006.

For four really good rappers, they're putting out material I'd expect from Young Money aka the wackest and most predictable rappers in history.

No creativity or balls these days.

I agree

on topic, Crooked x SBQ x Royce x Kendrick, each one having his own verse.. just wow
