Slug is one of the most underrated rappers ever possibly. His lines are so creative and his delivery is perfect. I love his adlibs, choruses, subject matter - everything.

One of the best rap songs ever IMO.

Love this. I still haven't decided who my favourite Wu-Tang member is! I think it's Raekwon... but I'm just not sure.

[Kieran. 6,317]

GZA hands down for me.

[Amblève. 4,995]

Lupe's the best lyricist in the business. Even better than Lamar, imo.

The atmosphere on this album is dope; favorite music to smoke to.

[Leif 6,006]

Last year I was at an after-party of Jay Z's in London which I got into since my mum's younger cousin DJ's for quite a few hip-hop moguls and was hosting this particular party. (I just stood awkwardly behind a plant for most of the thing.) Anyway, I went off to the toilet to take a leek and then guess who walks in when I'm just about to piss? Jay walks in after sort of bursting through the door with a Jadakiss laugh and says "sup" then stands at the urinal next to me (there were 10 or so free urinals, so I've no idea why he picked the one beside me), he whipped his wang out, and started to pee. He was standing way too close to the urinal clearly as loads of pee-spray sprayed against my new jeans and I think even a bit flew onto my hand. He didn't seem to realise. Once he finished, he just did a weird smile and his eyes went big, he shrugged a bit, exhaled, and then left (without washing his hands! what a pimp). I just stood there, in awe, at the realisation that one of the greatest music artists in history had technically pissed on me.

Unrelated to the post above, the other cousin (male) has just signed a 'deal' of sorts to become this dude's 'main producer' or some shit like that. Not a biggie, but he was in So-Solid Crew which is probably the most important rap group in UK rap/grime history (unless I'm missing someone obvious.) He's nothing special, but meh.

Weed is becoming increasingly irrelevant in rap, now the likes of Kendrick Lamar (GOAT), J. Cole, Lupe Fiasco & Tyler The creator etc don't smoke.

It's all about Hookah now!

You should see among my peers how much its grown too! We all do it and buy ourselves those Hookah pens. (i know badass right?) hahaha

In Drakes new video (started from the bottom) you see them smoking hookah and also in French Monatana's "Pop That". I thought i was the only one who noticed but apparently it wasn't just me!

And pretty much all other rappers smoke. I agree ive never been a fan of rapping about smoking weed in every fucking song.

[Leif 6,006]

I don't understand why guys consider this dude 'real' because of drugs in his videos. That proves that he (or his associates rather) do drugs - not sell them. So what? I can find a hippie doing drugs! That aside though, he's quite chill and cool to listen to. Wasn't he/isn't he signed to Young Jeezy who just put him on the shelf? This guy could be BIG (Think A$AP Rocky's current buzz) with the right label and features in my opinion. Something about him believe it or not reminds me of Biggie. Not sure what it is though. Not the flow, not the delivery..just the roughness I guess.

[Leif 6,006]

The chorus on this makes me smile

Fun fact: Young Buck, after leaving G-Unit, was originally going to get on MY track "Unstoppable" before *I* decided I didn't want him on it anymore! Heh. Who'd imagine a little Scottish boy (i was fucking 15 at the time) rejecting the chance to work with an ex-G-Unit member? I really need to upload Unstoppable & Never Back Down don't i? Anyone know any good places (not Soundcloud) to upload 2 snippets so I can share 'em on here?

G.O.A.T.

You still haven't put any tracks on here so I don't believe anything in that post.

@Yeboii,

That's not really relevant to me though. I've never been one who's felt the need to prove himself to others.
