Why don't you nerds listen to Kool G. Rap?

yall always !!in about lyricism and who's lyrical and whatnot, here's a news flash: G Rap is more lyrical than Lupe, Kid Cudi, J. Cole, Kanye, Drake, and the rest of these frootie booties that you nerds listen to. He's been spitting multi-syllabic rhymes with the most ruthless flows since before most of those other dudes were born.

so why don't you listen to him?

The only thing I can think of is that you can't relate to him, because he doesn't rap about skateboarding and comic books, and dragons, and being emotional and lonely, and about what it was like to grow up as a child star on Canada's number-one teen television drama.

and thats cool. if you want to be a nerd, be a nerd. but don't pretend that there's no such thing as street music that's still lyrical, cause when it comes to lyricism G Rap !!s all over yall weak rappers.

yeah G Rap is sick. he's definitely in the list of most underrated emcees of all time. in my opinion, i think his lisp is what threw people off.

i dont understand why u cant be a fan of both. i listen to lupe, drake and cudi as well as jeezy, t.i., cam and the lox. i dont understand why you cant be a fan of good hip hop period. i have to be a nerd to listen to lupe? i have to be a street nicca to listen to g rap? [pic]

its not like he's using some outdated slang or somethin

In this recent work he did, shows he is wide awake to what's going on, listen closely to his lyrics, you might learn something.

when Jay first came out, I thought he was corny like most people...if he didn't make the moves he made in business/music, he would probably be in the same arena as Kool G Rap...I'm not saying Kool G Rap is corny but he doesn't have the commercial success like Jay that will keep his name mentioned amongst a wide age range....for example, A LOT of niccaz that smoke weed will say they love Devin the dude....I'll always know his music because we have a common theme....most people that are 30+ will completely agree with you about Kool G Rap because that was the "Devin the Dude" of their time

Check my sig. Hes been in my top 5 since the 90s.

im not goin to act like i know something about g rap cause i dont, ur right i did think he was from the ice age, i had know clue this guy was even putin music out around them times, then again i was prob in the 5th grade and mainstreem music was most likley my cup of tea, if i would have heard him on the radio or yo mtv raps then i might have a been a big fan of him today
