    lol @ CS88

    @Billz

    Yeah that sticky album was dope, fredro shit was too, don’t really remember anything from those albums tho except there good. I remember the concept of sticky’s album was the whole album was a story & each song was a different chapter or something like that. Remember when they tried to make a comeback in like 02′? I guess all the bitch roles sticky & fredro played made them not relevant to the average listener

    Random nig 1:”Yo, you gon cop that new Onxy shit?”

    Random nig 2:”What ,you talking bout the blade nigga & dude from sunset park? GTFOH”

    *Dude picks up soulja boy’s CD*

    ***LMAO…didn’t Sticky get beat down by a white boy in a boxing match that was on MTV, too? And don’t forget Fredro was on “Moesha” and “Save the Last Dance”, and he got the nerve to talk about “sexy niggas” (nawsuh)…ol’ teen hearthrob, cover of “Word Up!” wanna be ninja….

    Happy New Year Nah . . .

    The 40/40 needs a new interior designer (none); G Rap needs a new graphic designer; but fuck it, from knowledge to born.

    Al Sharpton needs to have a fucking modicum of dignity.

    There was a concerted effort to keep Cannibus from taking the emcee throne. He should have put his pride on the back burner and came out on Def Jam with the Todd Smith cosign and the FIRM connection. . .waited patiently; gathered strength; then crushed all them niggas.

    Sticky and Fredo had been on that movie and sitcom cake.

    Deebo: Use this brick to break dat chain

    *Sticky attempts to break chain with brick*

    Sticky: Man, you got me out hear tryna break a chain with a brick? Fuck that shit deebo, let’s go get some bitches or something

    Even tho i’m not a fan of Go-Go, I can only imagine how they act when that shit comes on, just like baltimore & club music, you would never really get the full experience unless you either are a fan or grew up on it. Now that i’m grown, I hate club music with a passion, back when I was a teen, club music was that crack. the 2pac club mix & DMX club mix was my all time favorite, can’t forget ODB one too, SMH @ self,

    out of all thsoe rappers wannabe singers, cee-lo is the only one that can pull it off, St Elsewhere proved that.

  59. Plug Says:

    On the real, Puns first album was better than:

    Any canibus album
    Any B. I.G album
    Any Jay z album
    Any Big L album
    Any rakim album (except paid in full and Follow the leader)

    Best Pun verses:

    Twinz
    Dream Shatterer
    Off the Books

    Seriously, I like Canibus and all, but when I think of my favorite emcees, he barely makes the cut, which is a shame, because he has the talent to be an upper echelon type emcee- I think Lanski was right, earlier, when he said duke fell victim to label politics…remember when Clef made him wear that metallic paint in the “Gone Til November” video, then when they fell out, he turned around and called him “Tin Man”? Funny, but foul, lol…

    >>>>Since were on the topic of fallen’ rappers, what ever happened to Mr.Cheeks?… I blaming industry politics on his demise smh

    ^Can’t blame politics, his name alone is reason enough to push his album back farther then plies hairline, J/K. On the real, sometimes it’s just you’re time to fade from the limelight, can’t no A&R or big label can save you i.e LL cool J, Cheeks had a very good career tho, started off with the lost boys, made 3 albums I think, dropped a hip hop classic “renee” a rare few artist drop a timeless rap song, went solo, did the jumpoff with lil kim which was 1 of the hottest songs that year, then he did “lights camera action” which still get spins now & then in clubs. He was out for atleast 11 years, that’s like 7 rap careers combined. He would only hurt his legacy by tryna make a comeback on some pop shit & that’s the only way he will get noticed, & if he comes back on some underground shit only nahggers & other internet heads will know about it.

    lol @ the name Mr Cheeks, Cheeks better be his last name or something god damnit

    Even tho i’m not a fan of Go-Go, I can only imagine how they act when that shit comes on, just like baltimore & club music, you would never really get the full experience unless you either are a fan or grew up on it. Now that i’m grown, I hate club music with a passion, back when I was a teen, club music was that crack. the 2pac club mix & DMX club mix was my all time favorite, can’t forget ODB one too, SMH @ self,

    ^Agreed. I don’t know why, but last night I thinkin’ about how underground and club music used to be. Like yourself, I despise that shit now (smh @ fuckin’ Spongebob). But remember the classic old joints?

    “roll that shit, light that shit… smoke it smoke it smoke it”

    “Cherry Hill pull your guns out (POW!) E-A pull your guns out (POW!)…”

    “E-A E-A… wuuuuuuuuuuuuu!”

    ==============================================

    Yeah, our flicks are pretty good. They tried to make a TV show out of Lock, Stock and it was so bad, they pulled it. It was really cheap looking.

    I think the problem lies in advertising revenue. Maybe there aren’t enough Queen’s Heads in TV advertising to justify spending big money on a TV show. Plus, a lot of your best shows are on HBO, so somebody is paying.

    Ike, you ever see the flick ‘Sexy Beast’? (nah). It’s basically Ben Kingsley as a scary-but-skinny Superthug. Also, not a gangster flick but more of a super-realistic vision of life on the estates in London, ‘Nil By Mouth’ directed by Gary Oldman is actually pure evil.

    ^Yo, I aint even know until I arrived at my homie’s crib on NYE in NYC. We kept watchin’ that mack truck of a hit in that Titans/Colts game. Then outta nowhere, he was like, “you know Billick got fired right?” I thought he was playin’. We went to ESPN.com and I was like hellz yeah! That was the beginning of great night in Nu Yitty (it ended with me being drunk and lockin’ lips with a snowflake with a phatty) and the end of great year in general.

    Applaud Philly, like 800 Mufuckas Dead ALLREADY in 2008. lol.

    ^ Speaking of Philly… does anybody here know what happened to the kid Joey Jihad?

    He was the lil’ dude who got snuffed and car-jacked on tape. I thought he was a pretty good battle rapper and thought he might have been signed by now. Anybody know?

    I don’t think we’ve got many Philly cats up in Nah. They’re all too busy killing people to use the internets.

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
    Damn, SC, that’s some foul shit to be sayin’. Our murder rate actually DROPPED from 406 in 06 to 392 last year. But shit WAS mad hectic in the summer. So far we’ve only had one murder, a stabbing.

    BTW, wassup Nahrighters? I see A’LL Y’ALL!!!!
    Happy new year.

    Plus, “Hey Lover” was awesome. Boyz II Men = Best Vocal Group friggin’ ever, and LL did his Nasty Loverman Raps {(c) Jabba the Bol} thing superbly.

    ^SHEEEEEEIT… that song is a classic. Yeah, I said it… classic. You can’t really find too many lovey dovey hiphop songs that come close to that. And he added realism to it. Wasn’t on no corny “I get the girl at the end” type shit. That’s one thing I can say is that LL pretty much cornered the market for hip hop love songs, hence the moniker “LL”.

    Ike… I never heard the LL retort to 2nd Round Knockout.

    What’s the concensus… LL won?

    I have to admit that battle kind of opened my eyes to the fact that Wyclef could actually spit heat. The joint “What’s Clef?” produced by Salaam Remi is bonafide heat.

    I’m just chillin’, gettin my “lurk” on(no copyright infringement) for the past couple weeks. B-more’s homi rate dropped, too.

    ^Well that certainly beats out B’more. We ended with 280 or so and have roughly 600K. So yeah, per capita them mofos win again.

    Smh @ me sayin’ “win”

    @ Soul– I think LL won the battle, but I think this is a Canibus site (no Plug)

    Cosign Billz, “Hey Lover” was awesome. People forget LL was that dude in 1995-1996. The “Mr. Smith” album was dope.

    Oh, and it’s “Cujo” aka the Rabid dog from Stephen King’s book of the same name.

  234. icon (trillbert arenas) Says:

    I would add “Mahoghany”, by Eric B. and Rakim, “Renee” by Lost Boyz (is that even a love song?), “Black Shampoo” by Wu, “All that I Need” by Meth and Mary, “the Light” by Common, “Find A Way/Bonita Applebum” by Tribe, and of course, “Mind Sex” by deadprez

  235. D. Billz Says:

    Yo… I can’t front… and I mentioned this the other night… put that Pete Rock and Jim Jones song that they did around the summer of ‘07 is actually a pretty decent song. I forgot who else on NR brought this to my attention. So that’s 3 songs of Jim’s that I like, which inevtiably is better than the rest of his catalog combined.

  236. Joe 88 Says:

    Cormega - I wish I never met you

    ^That might not be the name of the song, but he says it on the hook alot so w/e. The song is dope
