Damn! Rakim kills it with a live band, always has done. He needs to hook up with the Roots and do an album for real! He has jazz in his veins with flow that is incomparable - God MC no doubt!
guru, rakim, murs, big d kane, sunz of man, fugees ..kind of stuff i like to hear. Always thought nas was overrated (i have every nas lp btw) and biggie overrated too (big l was waaay better imo)
@rakimthegod1 What I am sick of is seeing that fucking HOW TO RAP comment on everything. Straight up fucking spam. Who needs to read a book to figure out how to rap? And why are dudes hyping it so hard if they arent getting anything from it? Fuck that shit. Scammin spam shit.
I feel honored to have grown up from that ERA, I always thought about what it would be like years from now when I would be called, 'Old School' but watching this whole HipHop thing over the years un-fold and where it's at today, gives me mixed feelings...Wish the new school would carry on tradition and stop becoming slaves to corporate america who insists on watering down the art form and disrespecting a whole culture.
Agelessly awesome, if you haven't had a chance to see the "R" Live, then sell or pawn everything you have if need be, and witness what HIP-HOP is all about. This brother spits holy water wisdom, off- the- chain dope, and the new material he's been cooking up is UNBELIVEABLE; truly I was in awe: delivery gave me goosebumps, he was totally involved with the crowd, better than on wax, no kidding! Man, this God aint going nowhere but UP. Old-school, but not old: live he's as Alive as ever. Top dog.
Empirical, transcendental, straight-off the dome DOPE-MATIC...Rakim is GOD; he's the zenith, the peak, the high-arching lyricist. Peerless delivery, Ra's style makes any comparison to Nas a moot point: Nas does not have the flow, the inner-eye philosophical stamina to out-verse the R on even his most inspiring day. Moreover, Rakim makes it sound effortless; he's street-wise, strand-up in every way. There's no bigger thief than a bad rap, and whatever Rakim touches is solid gold. Flow Forever
i know my music, better message you say, okay maybe true, but rakim is what you call a sucker livin of his past people who keep talkin about what they were he aint got the balls to put something new out cos he's too scared it might fail. fuck you lot kepp sucking mans balls.
He basically just said what nas said LOL smh. so he agreed hip hop is dead. when nas said hip hop is dead he meants as in nobody want to hear it no more. thats what he meant NY is the stmbol of Hip Hop
I SWEAR TO FUCKING GOD, THESE STUPID FUCKIN 15 SECOND ADS TAKE 15 MINUTES TO BUFFER ON MY BRAND MOTHER FUCKING NEW COMPUTER, REALLY FUCKING ANOYIIGN HOLY FUCKINN SHIT .... FUCK YOU
fuck rakim man, talkin like hes the fucking man or something. i dont really like his music probably cos i was alittle kid when he was putting music out, nas was my music in my teenage years. fuck these old school rappers they aint puttin nuthin out there.
@1ronman786 I agree with you for the most of it but yeah..Rakim IS the fucking man.If there is a guy in hip hop that says something and all you can do is disagree but shut the fuck up it`s Rakim
And then what Ra says is also partially true.NY lost it`s vibe.The westcoast and the dirty south never brought that complex lyricism anyway(with some possible exceptions)
@1ronman786 Wow that's probably the stupidest comment I've ever fucking heard. Dude, you need to fucking read up on the people that inspired the people you lsten to now days. That way you can really get the full picture, you probably don't even listen to the words in the songs, fuck is wrong with u.
@frankthatank0325 yh you stupid muthafucka keep listening to stats and peoples inspiration i never said rakim dont inspire, you know what shut the fuck. keep sucking rakims dick all this muthafucka does is bust interviews. lol
@1ronman786 I just think it's fucked up that you would diss someone because you were born after their time. Yeah ok, Nas has a couple good joints I agree, Rakim isn't my favorite of all time but he's got a hell of a alot better message than 90% of the rappers out there today. I don't listen to that hip hop pop shit that the media is all fancinated about. Why don't you go listen to your shit instead of cocming to this page to diss this, ur outnumbered, it aint us that needs to change, it u.
@1ronman786 Thats cause new school kids think Soulja Boy is hip hop. Get the hell outa here sayin fuck old school rappers. You cant say that you lived off of Nas in your teams then say fuck old school. All TRUE hip hop lovers will just tell you to shut the fuck up.
@1ronman786 You kids today are so disrespectful. You can't name any good rappers in mainstream right now. Also Rakim does put out new shit it doesn'ttalk about money, cars, and hoes so it doesn't get radio play. You are are one of thos kids who wouldn't know a real MC if he came and spit right in front of you. Respect real music.
Perhaps Ra is better than em, but of course you can be better than someone who influenced you. For example was Rakim the first rapper ever? Of course not he must have been influenced by someone!
Another example: George Mikan was the first real big man in the NBA, and influenced most of the big men who played on after him. However does that make him the greatest big man of all time?
On this Em thing, I do believe he borrowed from Ra. If you recall the hook for The Way I Am..."I am, whatever you say i am, if i wasn't then why would i say i am" borrowed from 'I'm the R the A to the KIM, if I wasn't then why would I say I am" from As The Rhyme Goes On. That alone ends any discussion of Em being better than Ra. You can't be better than somebody you borrow from. Thats pretty much what most of these *rappers today do. *Note: I said rappers and not Emcees. There is a difference.
ay yo guys i just wanna see thats enuff with all the arguments and shit and like comparisons and rankings between em and ra. its like, they both got they own style thats very different from each other, and in they own way, they both kill it! they both real, they both lyrical, they both got dat flo. which one you like better thats just personal opinion.
Rakim can and could destroy any of you young punk niggas idols like lil wayne, em , soulja bitch ect.. what happens is that young niggas grew up listenin to garbage so all they produce and consume is garbage.
@TR1F3DAGOD look man, both rakim and eminem r the reasons im rapping today. rakim absolutely kills it. but eminem does too... honestly, hip hop has only gotten better since its beginning, despite what is known as "the bullshit rapper" becoming more common as time went on, but it has gotten better, its only gotten more complex. rakim being from the 80s, was the most complex, obviously, and he could hold his own in the 90s, and even now, but i think eminem will continue to kill shit for many more
@RaabBlog how do u fix ur fingers to type "eminem is better than RA"!!!! i think u meant to say...u like eminem better. which is fine. the only thing hes done better than Ra is album sales. theyre both crazy lyrical BUT when it comes to "lyrical content" Rakim hands fuckin down over any "commercial" artist ever! even tupac. not to mention, he influenced every rapper that ever rapped since 1988. LOL
@TR1F3DAGOD continued... for many more years to come. rakim is dope, eminem is just better. rakims impact however exceeds eminems by lightyears. rakim is the reason 100% of 90s rappers rap how they do.
"Katrina pregnant with triplets"-I f#@!%Hg love this man!!!!!!! I feel like I never left the golden era. Thanks for these posts so people like me can re-live the magic!!!!!
My idol and he is why I love hip hop. Always humble and respectful not to mention the greatest emcee of all time. Jay-z and Biggie wouldnt have no rap flow without this guy. I hope he stays in good health so he can pass some knowledge down to the youngins and let them know what real hip hop is.
Man krsone and rakim should team up to save hip hop. However I don't think Rakim sees the bigger picture, Hes a moderate but if we want to save hip hop we need a radical to step and play a undercover agent to sneak into the top 100s and let the world hear there needs to be a revolution in hip hop! Bring back the golden era! long live Hip Hop and death to Hip POP!
@100750 a number for a name you must be a cracker talking that simple shit, go rape a baby, then choke on an eggplant sandwich, paleface bitch. thats all yall crackers are good for pedofelia and unseasoned food. i was born in this country, you didnt bring no one here.
If you really want to know what happened to NY hip-hop....Puffy+shiny suits in the video+glossy ass beats = the end of raw beats and grimy videos.......and I'm saying that coming from the South.....the only NY rap I listen to is from 91 to 98
im a up and coming hip hop artist by the name Visionz, and my style is influenced by artists such as NAs, Wu-Tang Clan, Mos Def, and Lupe Fiasco. I would really appreciate it if u could check out my music and subscribe if u like it. Thx.
I thought I knew everything bout the Rap game, but then I started really getting it in & diving in to researching bout Hip-Hop. Rakim will always be a Legend of Hip-Hop with a lot of the other Ancestors of the Rap game.
Sorry Ra, but I'm from Cali and we ain't got shit. We got the New Boyz and that bipolar man-child, Game. Real lyricists don't get famous unless they legends (like Rakim) or lucky (like Slaughterhouse).
I don't listen to Heiroglyphics, so I can't say anything there. But when you say the NWA, I'm talking about right now, not 20-30 years ago. I don't think a group that killed itself over money is somethin I wanna be represented by
1987 original mc summer time thinking of a master plan crack spots he was one for his day it's an honor to speak about this man, and for the respect he gets in this coded up fake shyt timeless.
hiphop aint dead ,its tha mentality of tha planet thats dead,its hard to say that as an artist when you trying to appeal to tha masses,and sell records
New York Hip Hop will always be the realest from Nas to Az to Rakim, Mobb Deep and of course the legendary Wu Tang and so on it makes sense and its alway conscience and full of adventurous stories Hip Hop was born in NY and its were its gonna be original lets bring it back
@esconyfinest true but when all these cats were up and coming, new york was rough, times were hard (remember the 70's). Unfortunately, these young kids/generation has not had the misfortune to suffer or see all the suffering that the original or skool rappers experience. Hip Hop was an a positive outlet back then but what are these kids now going to talk about.....NYC needs to come up with a new sound, we can't expect young kids to sound like the skool cats of the 80's those days are gone
@alvanson yea man I agree with u 100% but damm u can't over dose the hip hop stations with fake hip hop and its not all about ol skool thers cats like Cormega and Nas thats still coming out with good songs and alot are even positive songs theyre not all about hood tragedies, but they just dnt get the right promotions especially AZ and Mega
OH YEAH ...One More Thing...KRS Said It Best..." If you Listen to Wack Music...You Wack ."..What you listen to says alot about who you are...cuz in Essence...you are the music......NUFF SAID...IM OUT!
@MiaHill7......AMEN!!!!!!!!! That's what I say all the time and you know what the sad thing is....There are so many wack mothafuckaz right now it's ridiculous! The artists and their fans!
First off..NY STAND UP..We are hip hop..we are the epicenter of everything hip hop..dont Hate and dont Front..The South is getin an easy ride..ALL the beats sound the same..Im tired of listenin to niggas talkin about makin chicks famous by F***in them or how many bricks they pushin or what they drivin..98% of those cats NEVA felt the pressure of bein in the spot ..pistols cocked..heads beatin down the door..five O circlin the block..i promise you that..NAS RAKIM BIG THEY TOLD THE STORY-THE TRUTH
@MiaHill7 hmm u got some good points, but listen to atliens, pocket full of stones, old scarface and getto boyz, we've been in this game a long time, just gettin a bad rep because of the dance/hip pop music you hear on the radio, as far as the pistols cocked and all that shit, are u forgettin that mexico is right below us? directly right below us? 80% of the illegal drugs come through conduits from mexico, and through the south, its about HIP HOP, not that shit
no i dont...Im just saying he's looking old as hell in some street clothes...he needs to fit his image better...."when they do make the whip, you like your chips aint right, before you can afford it, the car aint important." CLASSIC
@datflyguy215 bad example. Jay peaked at Black Album. Everything from 2006 forward(save for American Gangster)has been from medium to hot garbage and so on........
@datflyguy215 no your delusional. Kindom Come was garbage, American Gangster was on point, Blue Print III was "Aiiiiiiiiiigggh*(Medium)and every verse he has put out(outside of albums)has been fuckin wack. His verse on "I Do It for Hip Hop" was lazy and uninspired for example. And as far as "winning grammy's"........when have the grammy's ever been relevent to quality of music. Lil Wayne one a grammy for that Carter III shit(which was an ok album)but you see my point.
@datflyguy215 also sales don't mean shit, cause just because people bought the album doesn't mean they actually ENJOYED IT. I knew two dudes at work who bout Kayne Wests "808 and Heartbreaks" and they said they "wasted their money". And my boy Cody bought BP3, hated it, and re sold it to some dumbass for a higherprice(who in turn said he didn't like it either).
Who can make a song called REWIND and tell the story completely backwards, or make a detective story like WHO KILLED HIP HOP or takes us back like BRIDGING THE GAP? Who can tell a story USUAL SUSPECTS style-just by looking at things in the room-like BIG's Niggas Bleed....WHO? Who can make a funny story like JAY's GIRLS GIRLS GIRLS....Is hip hop all about Turn my swag on or Half a brick quarter brick...AYE!!!? NO.....hip hop is more than that...we need more elevation...please believe that....
....and hip hop is dying, if not dead....listen to who is out now....WOKKA FLOCKA FLAME, GUCCI MANE, GS BOYS and the stanky leg, SOULJA BOY TELLEM......WHAT?!! I talk music to cats all day and they don't even turn on the radio anymore cause its all garbage...and we promote it....I was told by someone the reason they like the song or the artist is because the beat is hot and it's a catchy hook....PLEASE...nobody listens to lyrics anymore, is creative like NAS or Rakim or B.I.G...Nas was right...
Dude....WHO IS KIRK RUSSEL....WOW....you do need to learn your history...it's BILL RUSSELL dude...and 2 you can't compare a center to a shooting guard....and both played in a different point in the game...so to compare Ra with Big and Pac is like the same thing....all great for their times....and yes...rakim and Big Daddy Kane and EPMD and slick rick started it for Nas and BIg and all in the 90's and all...we could all do our own top 5 d.o.a alive but they all were the foundation...including nas
are u crazy for put big & pac above Rakim. Rakim the first rapper who was lyrical. He inspire nas, pac, biggie, em, krs-one, az, big l all them. Know your history son
Kirk Russel was one of the all-time nba greats, played in the 50's and regarded as one of the most influential people in the sport, but that doesn't mean hes better than the modern era micheal jordan, who may not have had as big an impact, but was the better basketball player.
nah dog, i have that top 3 completely unbiased. I like Em and Immortal Technique more than Ra and Big, but im making an educated placement as far as top 3 goes.
Rakim's had the greatest impact no question, but that doesn't make him the greatest MC. 3rd best is no joke
yeah i feel you on that, i know people are going to hate but i was mainly laughing at pac #1. i feel he's the most influential and one of the greatest entertainers in hip hop but not top 3 mc's. just me.
I can respect that. Most people who don't agree with Pac at 1 just hate, and say that cuz they don't like em. But i can see where you're coming from and i agree at the end of the day, its all opinionated.
i need $ i used to b a stick up kid....thats right bitches RA was all that n a bag o chips back in the day and today.....still gettin paid in full...one love RA you still the G.O.D
Oh just wanted to add, the baggy jeans and pants that are in style now, where basically an embarrassment for us in the early days, because it meant your ass was poor and that you were either wearing hand me downs or clothes from the Salvation Army. God how I love the hip hop culture that turned an embarrassment into a style. God I feel old, jajajajajajajaajajajajajaja
I can remember walking in the BRONX and listening to guys freestyling, going to block parties and watching DJ's go off on the turntables (before mk2's). And to be more exact, and if my memory serves me right, Rikers Island is where it all started, when the prisoners not wanting to get in trouble would start to rap, and that trickled it way to the BRONX. The word MC came from the person who would practically talk about the DJ while people were dancing. THOSE WHERE THE GOOD OLD DAYS.
Look up Jacko( He was a Radio DJ Doing it since the 50's And Pigmeat marham Here Comes the Judge released 1968.He also was doing it since the 50's And Jamaican Chatin' King Yellow Man (And many others befor him).I "Believe it was somthing The generation in the 70's Reincarnated.Just My Opinion.
My only reason for mentioning jay-z is because of his beat and style not his his lyrical content which is ok not great. I have been listening to hip hop since it started, before some of you were born. And it's progression has been great but now there is nothing out there to get my attention. It's begun to be like rock music, with no real star. Right now DJ Kool Herc and Grand Wizard Theodore, 2 of the hundreds of originators of hip hop must be pissed with the state of hip hop.
What do you think of "Here Comes the judge" By Pig Meat Markham" made in 1968 .I realy think he was the first rapper.But hip hop doesn't tell it all.Also,Jock(Not Kurtis Blow)Was The First on a major label 1979.I share this 'cause you sounded like a real hip hop fan.
East coast rappers are just trying to blend in now for the industry.Doing what they think will sell,In the day'Eastcaost rappers.Had lirics with medifores ,Dictionary words,Dropping science.Made you listen to the lirical content.
east coast rappers are still the most lyrical rappers out they just putting out more catchy songs so people who dont know them pay attention to them but they still put out gutta music i.e. jadakiss he put out cant stop me, which was iight to get a buzz but the rest of his album is crack The Last Kiss is the best album of 2009 so far
HIP HOP IS DEAD....... Really it is, because I haven't heard any good HIP HOP music in years except for jay-z. All these new guys out there just don't get what HIP HOP is all about. Beats and Rhymes, thats all you need. Now a days all I hear is cheap beats horrible lyrics. Brink back the true HIP HOP. RAKIM IS GOD and all rappers should bow to his feet.
tht is the dummest thing i have eva heard. jay z is the worst rapper in history he can make good music but he aint good. and hip hop aint dead you are just not listenin 2 the ryte stuff listen 2 nas, jadakiss styles p then say sumfin
The underground is where it lives,Just where it started,In the Streets and in the true hip hop fans hart.the industry can't stop that.Check out Sean Price.
He's right though. Back in the day it wasn't about no bullshit image and bling bling. Straight lyrics and beats is was made you real and gave you a rep. The legends need to take it back before hip-hop really dies.
It kinda was about the bling in the dAY TOO.rAKIM HIMSELF HAD THE DOOKY ROPES./"cOL'SHOW MY RINGS AND MY FAT GOLD CHAIN........eVEN bUFFY fROM THE FAT BOY'S HAD A GOLD GRILL IN HIS MOUTH.
Music takes a full circle.most rappers had their own thing ,i agree.but some were materialistic.Slick Rick ,Dana Dane.Also in the 90's the whole Bad boy's crew.But it's o.K. Though Just today seems like every ones doing the same thing.Check out Jacko-Rhythm talk 1979
New York is the best ever. They have produced still the best rap songs ever by far. The south, the west, the midwest doesn't come close. Rakim, Wu-tang, P.E., KRS-One....on and on
Damn! Rakim kills it with a live band, always has done. He needs to hook up with the Roots and do an album for real! He has jazz in his veins with flow that is incomparable - God MC no doubt!

@TR1F3DAGOD look man, both rakim and eminem r the reasons im rapping today. rakim absolutely kills it. but eminem does too... honestly, hip hop has only gotten better since its beginning, despite what is known as "the bullshit rapper" becoming more common as time went on, but it has gotten better, its only gotten more complex. rakim being from the 80s, was the most complex, obviously, and he could hold his own in the 90s, and even now, but i think eminem will continue to kill shit for many more

@RaabBlog how do u fix ur fingers to type "eminem is better than RA"!!!! i think u meant to say...u like eminem better. which is fine. the only thing hes done better than Ra is album sales. theyre both crazy lyrical BUT when it comes to "lyrical content" Rakim hands fuckin down over any "commercial" artist ever! even tupac. not to mention, he influenced every rapper that ever rapped since 1988.

Man krsone and rakim should team up to save hip hop. However I don't think Rakim sees the bigger picture, Hes a moderate but if we want to save hip hop we need a radical to step and play a undercover agent to sneak into the top 100s and let the world hear there needs to be a revolution in hip hop! Bring back the golden era! long live Hip Hop and death to Hip POP!

@esconyfinest true but when all these cats were up and coming, new york was rough, times were hard (remember the 70's). Unfortunately, these young kids/generation has not had the misfortune to suffer or see all the suffering that the original or skool rappers experience. Hip Hop was an a positive outlet back then but what are these kids now going to talk about.....NYC needs to come up with a new sound, we can't expect young kids to sound like the skool cats of the 80's those days are gone

I can remember walking in the BRONX and listening to guys freestyling, going to block parties and watching DJ's go off on the turntables (before mk2's). And to be more exact, and if my memory serves me right, Rikers Island is where it all started, when the prisoners not wanting to get in trouble would start to rap, and that trickled it way to the BRONX. The word MC came from the person who would practically talk about the DJ while people were dancing. THOSE WHERE THE GOOD OLD DAYS.

My only reason for mentioning jay-z is because of his beat and style not his his lyrical content which is ok not great. I have been listening to hip hop since it started, before some of you were born. And it's progression has been great but now there is nothing out there to get my attention. It's begun to be like rock music, with no real star. Right now DJ Kool Herc and Grand Wizard Theodore, 2 of the hundreds of originators of hip hop must be pissed with the state of hip hop.
omarcamacho7 2 years ago
What do you think of "Here Comes the judge" By Pig Meat Markham" made in 1968 .I realy think he was the first rapper.But hip hop doesn't tell it all.Also,Jock(Not Kurtis Blow)Was The First on a major label 1979.I share this 'cause you sounded like a real hip hop fan.
