I'm probably the only one who cares around here but I'm bored right now and I'm gona post it :) He's one of my favorite artists and he became my favorite rapper when I saw that video where he was showing respect to Sean Taylor and if you guys haven't heard Dead and Gone he also mentions his name at the end of the song but he had a lot of respect for Sean and I believe I read somewhere that they were friends and would of loved to go to his funeral but he was in jail, but anyways looking forward to hearing his new album

Talent Impaired. hes a radio rapper. sorry to hate chevy but most people my age who grew up to true hip hop of the 90's really have a dislike for these non-talent jingle radio rappers. i was forced to have to associate with these wanna-be radio rappers for about a year in LA. not on TI's level of success but guys signed to major record deals trying to be the next TI.
i got chuckles when i would ask them about true underground hip hop guys like brother ali or mf doom and they wouldnt have a clue to who they were.

Haha thats cool with me! I knew that not many ppl here would be interested but just putting it out there in case someone knows him or cares :cool-smil T.I. is the only "radio rapper" I like. I especially can't stand hearing 50cent but that's another story :). I also like listening to a lot of underground rap from the 90's so I ain't hating on you :cool-smil

I wanted to say something just like this, but I'm steadily finding myself feeling like an old crotchety man hahaha. I miss names like Big L, Tribe and Boot Camp.
Now, kids have redefined hip hop into hip pop:

TI is alright, but does his "dropping" of a new album actually warrant a thread? I could drop my album "Who Gives a Shit" tomorrow but would anyone actually care?

that was horrible...still some peeps putting out hip hop gotta look hard these days...Ghostface, Outkast, Mos Def, some Clispe, some Roots, new Raekwon, Nas still putting out a decent product. Old Skool: Tribe, the Coup, Biggie, Jay-Z, Eric B & Rakim, Snoop, Wu-Tang, Pharcyde...that stuff was classic...
