Peter Taylor says:

Give a black man a microphone and he's suddenly a rapper, regardless of any vocal lessons or talent--of course why would you need them it's not like the audience of rap has taste.

you might know peter taylor better by his nom d'ilx 'mr snrub'

Peter Taylor died while on holiday in Majorca, aged 62 in early October 1990. Brian Clough attended the funeral and dedicated his 1994 autobiography to Taylor. Clough also paid tribute to Taylor when he was awarded the freedom of the city of Nottingham, and in 1999 when a bust of himself was unveiled at the City ground.

Dammit I was just gonna say Barman.

the first barman EP has some pretty awesome prince paul production...i like that one, only cuz it was about as long as you could take barman for.

― M@tt He1ges0n, Wednesday, 2 May 2007 21:35 (eighteen years ago)

i like some atmosphere stuff....i haven't heard sage francis to my knowledge.

― M@tt He1ges0n, Wednesday, 2 May 2007 21:36 (eighteen years ago)

The correct answer is "MC Rove"

― elmo argonaut, Wednesday, 2 May 2007 21:40 (eighteen years ago)

Sage is pretty talented with the wordplay, I just hate his whole tortured, self-loathing persona.

Prodigy and Havoc, the boys in Mobb Deep, do show some talent here; they have rough, urgent deliveries and thats the only thing that saves them from one star. Unfortunately Mobb Deep's raw mic skills are very badly serviced on "The Infamous": the beats are light and jazzy, which is all wrong for their style of raping, but even worst they display a total lack of conceptual imagination. All Mobb Deep talk about is the old generic tiresome thug/gangsta b.s. and they cant even make it sound believable. The situations in their songs are the same ones weve been hearing since gangsta rap began and the lyrics are very below-average. Cant these guys even rhyme? Even though they waste an entire spoken track talking about how real they are and how theyre from the street or whatever they wind up coming off even more like manufactured studio gangstas. Prodigy and Havoc are good basic rappers but they have no skill producing or writing lyrics, and have no imagination either. "The Infamous" isnt worth owning.

I am so glad you said that. This is one of those records that I've tried a dozen times without the big secret sinking in.

i think the obvious answer here is magoo

― creme1, Thursday, 3 May 2007 03:42 (eighteen years ago)

I honestly thought Magoo was Missy Elliot for an embarrassingly long time. He sounds exactly like her.

But isn't the answer Chunky A?

I like DMX, though only in small doses. And Atmosphere is great, why'd anyone nominate him?

Vanilla Ice is the easiest answer I guess, though if I remember correctly many people here (including me) like "Ice Ice Baby". His flow on that one isn't half-bad compared to, say, someone like Kurupt. The rest of his career obviously sucks though.

― Tuomas, Thursday, 3 May 2007 13:52 (eighteen years ago)

It'd be more interesting to ask if there's a black rapper everybody hates, because most of the obvious targets are whities deemed to be faking the funk, which as a form of critique is way too easy, even if it's often true.

― Tuomas, Thursday, 3 May 2007 13:55 (eighteen years ago)

you guys should here London rapper Example. i kinda like his accent tho.

Raymond "The Source" Benzino, too easy.

― The Reverend, Thursday, 3 May 2007 15:04 (eighteen years ago)

the Prof. Griff record on Luke's label, Pawns in the Game, was kinda good actually

― M@tt He1ges0n, Thursday, 3 May 2007 15:09 (eighteen years ago)

Actually the good Rev may be OTM here. xpost

― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Thursday, 3 May 2007 15:14 (eighteen years ago)

his sex tape deals with a lot of important issues

― M@tt He1ges0n, Thursday, 3 May 2007 15:16 (eighteen years ago)

actually though wasn't Benzino in Almighty RSO? they had some decent stuff back in the day, like "One in the Chamba"

― M@tt He1ges0n, Thursday, 3 May 2007 15:44 (eighteen years ago)

I liked the first Northern State and I liked Necro's metal album.

― NYCNative, Thursday, 3 May 2007 16:07 (eighteen years ago)

benzino ft 2pac & freddie foxx - tryin ta make it thru

i cant identify every resurfacing pac verse like i can w biggie (just w new mixtape collabos mj's dont stop remix is 'nasty boy', 50/big on back up is 'niggas', ghost remix is off pudgee's 'think big' and that joint w lloyd banks is just the 'runnin' verse already done) but theyre still always good and fit whatever new song theyre on so there must be a lot even if suge is doin shit like nu mixx classics and pac live now instead of the actual cohesive posthumous lps that i like. so this is thugz mansion shit w fake anthony hamilton chorus and old pac rhymes you wanna hear, bumpy knuckles ratchets it down and zno actually sounds deep on a selfaware introspective tip for the first time since that made men/lox song- i tht he only did slim disses and chanty shit now! sometimes in the middle of all the source drama you forget hes a real person and maybe him and ja shd be claiming pac for angry misunderstood contradictory dudes instead of boring ppl like em or nas (who pac hated) goin for a cheap ghetto pass and their place in 'rap history'

― and what, Thursday, 3 May 2007 16:12 (eighteen years ago)

benzino - bottles n up

while lean back gets jacked by every rapper in the game (best so far are pitbulls and that skillz shaq dis) its fucked up how the OTHER my-niggas-dont-dance anthem gets no play just bcz its ZNO!! ray-ray goes rowdy while storch defines his timbadre sound even harder (kims boy wont clockpunch even on the raven symone comeback joint), yall laugh but im glad theres still this no-fun luckless gangsta w enough cash/clout to do exclusives w his name on em every ten months bcz the next single got juvie and mario winans- FIVE MICS!

― Mr. Snrub, Thursday, 3 May 2007 16:59 (eighteen years ago)

Ready or not, refugees takin' over
The Buffalo soldier, dread-lock rhasta
On the twelfth hour, fly by in my bomber
Crews run for cover, now they're under pushin' up flowers
Superfly true lies, do or die,
Toss me high - only puff la,
With my crew from lock high
I refugee from Guantanamo Bay
Dance around the border like I'm Cassius Clay

― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Thursday, 3 May 2007 17:31 (eighteen years ago)

OK. From the guy who hates Mobb Deep:

William Butler Yeats is about as bad a poet one can be and still be considered "great". All of his poems are earnest and sincere, but they are totally appalling in Yeats's lack of control of language. The ideas of his poems are instructive, prophetic, and occasionally moving, particularly as he grew older, but as a technical writer he was, 98% of the time, an incompetent bumbler.

Whatever happened to Princesss Superstar? Did Peaches eat her?

― I eat cannibals, Friday, 4 May 2007 04:49 (eighteen years ago)

And I'd say DJ Rap, but a) despite her confusing name, she's more of a technopop producer/singer, and b) I'm sure that since some around here are still clinging to the shreds of Paris Hilton contrarianism, she'd clear the lowest-common-denominator bar easily.

― I eat cannibals, Friday, 4 May 2007 04:51 (eighteen years ago)

I don't hate Vanilla ice; anyone responsible for Ice Ice Baby is okay by me.

yeah that kurupt comment was bananas

― deej, Friday, 4 May 2007 06:36 (eighteen years ago)

Well, okay I haven't really heard his solo albums, but every guest verse of his I've heard is like him ad-libbing tired cliches and having notable troubles even keeping up with the beat.

― Tuomas, Friday, 4 May 2007 08:34 (eighteen years ago)

He's verses on Nate Dogg's "Can't Nobody" is probably the worst rapping I've ever heard on a commercial rap record.

― Tuomas, Friday, 4 May 2007 08:39 (eighteen years ago)

Actually, I have to take that back: the worst rapping I've ever heard on a commercial record is by Swizz Beatz on G.H.E.T.T.O. Stories, but I think few people were expecting him to be any good.

― Tuomas, Friday, 4 May 2007 08:50 (eighteen years ago)

Michael Peace! Though that's probably more massive indifference.

I really like DMX.

― dr. phil, Friday, 4 May 2007 14:42 (eighteen years ago)

If Kurupt gave a fuck about Tuomas,
I'd always be broke
I'd never have no mothafucking indo to smoke

― deej, Friday, 4 May 2007 14:45 (eighteen years ago)

if this wasn't nu-ilx i would have posted that as kurupt
