It’s all about the Dirty South next week, as rap entrepreneur’s sixth release, the Grand Hustle/Atlantic album Paper Trail, will debut on top of the HITS sales chart with 550k next week, fueled by the #1 CHR/Rhythmic single, “Whatever You Like.”
^This nigga T.I done did it again

Dro raps circles around TIP, if he could get better production this time around that’d be sweet cause the beats on best thang smokin were doo doo and cream

^Nope, i’ll get to it tho, for some reason, i’m not interested in listening to this album yet. Crazy
October 2nd, 2008 at 5:15 pm
sometimes I feel like dro > tip but then when I listen to shit like that superstar remix or even I stil love u I realize that TI >> Dro because TIP can actually talk about something serious. Dro is very entertaining tho. when people claim to like gucci mane because he’s entertaining or says funny shit i’m like just listen to dro. he’s more entertaining and much better at what he does.
October 2nd, 2008 at 5:16 pm
Big up Jay for this
October 2nd, 2008 at 5:16 pm
FACT: Dro is a hood nigga from bankhead who stayed by gramma nana
*paper trail sounds like her spit that entire album off paper…..eh, ya like whatcha like
October 2nd, 2008 at 5:18 pm
Dro is entertaining, and to me, entertaining music > _________
But he still aint betta than T.I, aint no way, i’m dissapointed in dro last mixtape “I am legend” them beats was wacktacular

@ Shanti
what you’re saying is extremely valid, dro has yet to really delve deep into serious issues. but from a technical aspect as a lyricist dro is ions ahead of clifford.
FACT: women think Dro is pimping in linen and salamander sandals

October 2nd, 2008 at 5:22 pm
Tip has the ability to be better than Dro, but he dumbs down. I haven’t really listend to Paper Trail yet though, and he is spitting kinda crazy on what I have heard, minus Whatever You Like.

Dro first album is bananas. and no how, no way should I like Shoulder Lean, but I love that song.
Suicide doors, Brown Rover look like pok n beans
Erybody know me in the club cuz they smokin’ me..Dro
Hoes scopin’ me, ice come from Boca Raton
Hundred carats have ‘em froze for an eon
Red, black, and white Chevy now I’m ridin’ Deion
Put them lights on in my rims, now I’m ridin’ neon
Our cars look like cra-yon, hoes know I’m the man though
I can shoulder lean… ionno how to dance thooooo
October 2nd, 2008 at 5:27 pm
I stopped listening to T.I after Urban Legend,
he’s had the same formula for every album it got old after awhile(same thing happened with DMX)
October 2nd, 2008 at 5:27 pm

>> true…well maybe not ions but yeah technically dro is better.

^From what I hear, paper trail is different from the last cd. I think shanti got it right when she said
Paper Trail = 2008 Urban legend

This nigga here……I fucking love it……
And for the record T.I.>Dro…..but both of em are dead ass nice imo

“Everything you got in your crib I got in my car, except for the bar” -Jada 1999-
I don’t even think Tip dumbs down I just think he doesn’t have it. If you really listen to Dro’s wordplay on Shoulder Lean alone he’s out-rapped Tip’s entire catalogue
October 2nd, 2008 at 5:31 pm
sorry, shoulda been:

The hook is a lil annoying, but his lyrics are dope.

^ha that’s funny, listen to the intro on “Urban legend” lyrical bomb, or listen to “look what I got” they just 2 of my personal favorite T.I tracks, but
T.I freestyle over the “Go Crazy” Jeezy track > Dro catalog

October 2nd, 2008 at 5:41 pm
Dro shoulda been featured on way more songs after his album dropped. I think T.I. was hatin’, somehow. I’m just gonna put that rumor out there since I can’t prove anything.
Also, I don’t see Meek Millz gettin’ no type of love. The only time he was ever mentioned is when Clifford was in Philly and brought him out. Outside of SP, Illadelph MC’s be gettin’ shitted on.

speaking of philly mc’s
October 2nd, 2008 at 5:54 pm
i’m almost positive i’ve read in print clifford saying dro was better than him….but Joe i’ve bought TIP albums consistently since he isnsisted to beat him “you would need a track from god feat jesus and jay z”….he has his moments but I think dro would eat that niggas cake *pause*
didn’t meek millz just go in state for a few?
Philly niggas go in….i just think walkin around lookin like black gnomes works against them.
