people on earth are different.......
a question once came and it goes thus
if you're given the opportunity to say something for the world to here what would you say?

are you going to tell me, that you're a sex and drug addict?..SNOOP DOGG fans answer

are you going to tell me, how messed up you are and how you would love to take revenge on people who did you wrong, how ungrateful you are to you loved ones and better d ie with a friend who's not interested in your life? EMINEM fans chew dat

are you goin to tell me, how you used to live and what you want and what you've got, that really doesn't affect my life? JAY Z fans feel that

are you going to tell me to behave like a well mannered and educated person but still be street enough to fight people and rip them apart on your next album? NAS fans

first thing i think people need to understand is that people are different so are things that affect us different, but one thing is for sure people want to be entertained.....

Now folks who don't know what Hip-hop is term it to be a very violent practices amongst the young generation but they are wrong............., you know thats not true....the five fingers; fashion (denim designs and all that) Disc jockey (dj artistry) graffiti (street painting and all that) beboying (break dancing, choreography) RAP (rhythm and poetry)......these are the basic pillars of hiphop now the reason they've been seen in the past as rebellious is the fact that when it started the society refused it (just like they did to metal and alternative rock)so there was a struggle for recognition that brought about various things that weren't approved by the law then (loud late nite parties, graffiti painting on the walls,wrong dressing, public disturbance when they dance on the streets,creation of a new brand of music that was banned because of its contents)...........now these practices are carried by the younger generations and the fathers are saying lets do it peacefully just like in our days.....

for rap most of the new rappers now only tell you things that ain't real (I know the business trust)......but i must say they're making it by sending the wrong info's to the public..............

but these guys you've mentioned are also guilty of the same crime.....check you records......... the originators never cursed of threw threats in the air.....curtis blow, african bambata e.t.c


now to this threads quest, it should have been named the most successful rapper so far.......cos the best is yet to come..........

one time fans of these guys:

Lords of the underground,
fooshnickies (can't really spell their names),
phoneix,
C L smooth,
Snap,
tribe called quest,
naughty by nature,
bell beiv devoe (though they weren't much or a rap group, remember poison),
ABC,
Fugees,
bone thugs,
Q latifah
Mc lyte,
Yoyo,
common (true player)
Fresh prince,
Cypress hill
help me peoples.......................

Look i was among the first people who lent his song from radio without writing it down when he came out........ thats to let you know how crazy i am about EM....but thats all the crase about your favorite artist...who may not be the best, i prefer EM to Jay-z forgive me but thats my choice, i cant say because he's my favorite i should give him the crown.............achievement is not just by favorism its with hard work.....heaven help those who really help themselves..........

well was in AJ one time like that and still get small taste inside but never had the idea of going to enugu..No thats not the fame am talking about wat am saying is the fame to start my quest of the kind of world i want not to be on stage making money that you'll use for special effects and later cry cos you can't cope with the lifestyle anymore........so school and work gives me the experience and then a little fame keeps my ready for the next move on the life game like chess baby!
