Gfk, you my top 10 but shut the fuck up, Ny been dead man, we got a different style, different beats, different cultures, you cant rap over "Tony Montana" just like Future cant rap over "Malcolm", different style of beats calls for different flows. Go to sleep.
@paulandj Correct myself, Future prolly could rock dat malcolm beat, cuz he got different flows, he''ll find a way, but Ghost aint gettin on dat tony montana, ny rappers aint got no rhythm, lmaoo, niggas like white boys, trash on southern beats.
Ppl say that they get mad bc their shit isn't poppin anymore, they get mad cus Hip Hop is gettin disrespected by these new artists talkin about shit like portrayin a drug dealer or thug and they don't know that one day it'll be tested, this is comin from a 16 year old hispanic and I know way too much abt Hip Hop
Apollo Kids is certified authentic hip-hop! Oh yeah, my 26 year old nephew though Apollo Kids was whack! How the fuck is REAL hip-hop whack and this bullshit now is hot? It's pop shit with boring beats. I think when someone has been out for 10 or more years and they do not get the hype of Jay-Z, they call them old. I understand as they did not come in their time, although 26 would make it Ghost in my nephew's time. Blame the group who runs the biz like a religion!
@UndergroundRaww u can't be serious. i'm 25 yrs old and i've been listening to the wu tang clan since i was a little 7 year old girl jumping around trying to be a power ranger. my mom is 63, born in 1948 and she even likes the wu tang. your nephew has no excuse lol! hell my mom recognized ghostface when he was on mob wives a couple of weeks ago! =/ i'm shocked to hear that a 26 yr old male doesn't like ghostface. that is a first!!! hell texas loves the wu down here!!!
@UndergroundRaww wow your 26 year old newphew (emphasis on 26), thinks apollo kids was wack? he obvioulsy was around when wu tang first came about what happened? LOL!
he's rite ...i have a BIG L tee shirt and all these young wanna b rappers always ask me ..''yo whose that on your shirt''....Know your history DUMBASS
See man, and being 21 years old in this lifetime, i really gotta a lot to say lyrically about how much the world have really changed, especially in the recent 10 years wit several things such as the lack of education, lack of creativity in the entertainment industry, the recession, diet and health issues, parenthood and childhood issues, and so on as well as the form of stages and events. I would like to put a golden age and global influence to what i would like to call "Chronological hip hop".
This is bullshit. There was gay music back in the 80s and 90s...and now. There has always been good and bad. Real and fake. These old dudes just mad bc their ny street shit isn't what's poppin anymore. Its all about the south bc its fun n ppl enjoy it. East coast shit is not poppin anymore
@b1azer12 your opinion that "Its all about the south bc its fun" is only that; a fucking OPINION. not a fact. i think that lyrical new york shit is fun, because you actually have to use your fucking brain to listen to it and understand it. you dont need to have any intelligence to listen to most of these whack ass motherfuckas now. and this is coming from someone from the south.
@b1azer12 The south sucks. You have be technical and lyrical; it's the only way of measuring an emcees skill. The South's lyrics have always been lazy, repetitive and simple. Who gives a fuck what's popping. At the end of the day, the movie goodfellas will always be a classic, just like the album 36 chambers will always be a classic. What classics have come out in the last 5 years? Rolling Papers? The Carter 3? Get the fuck outta here
hiphop, even old hiphop is biting off older songs from the 70s and 80s, everybody thinks their generation is the best, you just get older and realize how silly songs are to begin with
Ghost needs to be on American Idol. Ghost needs to work for a label sighing talent, managing talent so I can listen to some decent music on the radio, no more "cookie cutter,make a cheap hit get paid bs".Musics to bland!

Skills can be learned and you can go places to learn like a bmx park for bmxing but real lyrics come from your heart & that gives you the ability to produce lyrics that are naturally good (with yrs practice). Most of the rappers Ive grown up listening to can't even freestyle, WTF is that man? I listen to mostly pre 2000 hiphop for influence now because rap in 2011 is dead man.

No, people don't listen to "the real sh*t", because they don't like it. You just want to get back to "the good ole' days", just like older people want to get their Elivs or Beatles back. You're speaking for yourself.
theres no soul because its all buisness now they making wut the people want to hear shit thatl make drunk bitches shake there ass so the guys like it n the dj's play it n profit comes from that its not what anyone feels anymore were living in an age where the masses are brainwashed n they could only see where there alowed to look
Yes, hip hop has changed and has done so for the worse on the general level. How can I say this? Why would the question be posed to literally EVERY MC who has any legitimacy if it were not?! If the question exists and is that poignant, then the problem already exists. That's just plain and simple. It's on everybody's mind because it is the glaring truth. Yes, it is a problem. Yes, it should be corrected soon. Yes, I pray for that!
Listenin to real interviews like this keeps me in the game still.......but there are a few new cats that can spit that real......some rappers be hatein the internet n all cuz of all the downloads and i feel for em......but some old rap music u just cant find in the store to buy cuz its too old so i thank the internet for that....ya know....but we should support our artists tho
@biggvice187 its funny you say that man cuz I went to a boarding school for 2 years and a kid from taber or he was from calgary alberta he was from one of those 2 towns in alberta and he came and he said lil wayne is the best rapper alive and hes never ever listen to Wu as well. I asked him have you heard of Eric B. or Rakim, LL Cool J, Run DMC, Kurtis Blow, KRS One, or EPMD and he said no he hasn't and he doesn't know who any of them are. You cant say someones the best when u dont know history
Pop music it's not entirely hip hop, we need to understand that pop music it's about selling album to the kids, making money and artist don't make money from albums anymore, unless you're jay z or lady gaga, artist make money from tours and that's why artist have to make music with money in their mind. Underground hip hop it's still big and that's where the true soul of hip hop is, not on the flashiness on of music videos. It's a business, it's all about making money, that's it, not art.
@filipinobboy510 they made music based on their struggle and real life experiences back in the day. That music rides with all of us 2day. From Hip Hop to any genre. The ones that strike an emotional chord in the people last the longest. Nowadays the new dudes that get all the publicity make contrived music. Music that's cookie cut or just to make a song. Very little thinking goin in to the creation of songs nowadays. Its the bite era lol. Bite song titles, lyrics, styles crazy times my dude....
@extrahustle ...imagine what's the future going to be like, you just saying... turn that shit down kids, g it's making me feel sick!!! and they coming like...ayo we still have some people feeling out there, this hood should get clean, let's call the police...
Amen Ghost! Its a lotta simple minded muthafuckas out there not just in the rap game now but period! No complexity, no intelligence, dumbed downed way of thinking. I cant stand it. THANK GOD i grew up in the golden age of not only Hip Hop but everything! Peace to Ghostface
yea dj's are really harping on the shit cause when you go out clubbin or to the bar when you play the radio when you watch these lame ass tv shows displaying music when you open 'hip hop' magazines people get in the stores its all one big bowel movement..it could be better if people gave publicity to all mcs not just candy ones theres room for all of them
Amen Ghostface! The music now is the reason why these little girl's are out here still getting disrespected by all these lil boy's because chick's dont know how to treate theirself right.Hip-hop is a damn joke these I dont even want to know what next year going to be like.
So true, gald hes speaking out... The music got simple and stale, the beats are wack as..... And MCing aint from the heart... Alot of crap out there..
its amazing how this has so little views, just shows you how many real people there are out there, I don't think real rap/hip-hop will hit the commercial/mainstream scene the same way because people are sheep and don't think clearly, the record companies are milking the market with that whack club music sales, music is not the same anymore regardless of the genre, music has changed for the worse, it's all materalistic, no one wants to listen to the real sh*t, what sad times we live in...
@D3Big oh wow I don't remember commenting on this! umm yeah I thought you would have come to the conclusion that my comment was made 8 months ago and it would have very little views, no? I'm pretty sure it was around 5,000 views, give or take a few hundred, anyways I got things to do, pce!
What up Ghost? If you watching this.... Imma 16yr old Brooklyn rapper grinding hard. I got a dope idea for a song we can colab on. Check my contact info at the end of my videos. I have the perfect beat. Lets get it!
Well said Ghost .Around M&M came out shit got pussy.Not cause hes white hes jus pussy .People who thumb this shit down and like that candy ass bitch M&M your why Rap blows now!
You are 100% Right It Has Changed ! Yeah It Has No Soul, It's Them Glamorizing their Rich Properous Life ! It's nice they made it but Dame Maybe It'll change again One Day 4 The Better like it was back in da day ! I mean these Rappers have older stuff to see what's real opposed to this Garbage ! Well Nuff Said !
@feefer45 U WEAR TIGHT GAY JEANS WOW PITHEDIC ..fuck old skool hip hop..i wish u came thru wit that attitude u fuckin crab.. id spit in ur face and pistol whip
ur the epidimy of why hip hop has evoled into modern day disco..SAD
The mainstream media is killing hip hop. You don't get to pick your favorite songs, the radio and TV stations that play music pick the songs for you by constantly repeating the same ones, and they only pick songs about sex, drugs and violence for us to listen to (like that's all we know). They say the music industry is going broke, I say let's starve it all the way out by refusing to buy this re-used, recycled, regurgitated nonsense they keep putting out and supporting the underground.
We will never be tired of you Ghostface !!!!! And thats coming from a guy who partially grew up on heavy metal! At age 25 I started listening to your music and for five years you got me through some hard times! Im glad of converting music! Keep on going Ghostface!!!
@slv754 Good for you...remember, you can listen and appreciate all of it. Ghostface despite the genre, is a REAL artist. No matter where you from or what you feel about NY hip hop...if you don't study rap from the top, you don't know shit!!
Notice that hip-hop artist that are relevant don't waste time saying one region killed hip-hop. The south has talent, can't deny that, but they make the mistake of letting just anybody get shine: people like Waka Flacka Flames. Some say east coast artist music isn't listened to anymore. Well, the diff. out here is our artist stay doing shows..this is where the underground music scene started & remains. Ghostface don't need mainstream radio or videos to sale records. The hip-hop udrgrnd buys it.
I hate how da real emcees always try to sugar coat the state of hip-hop. Niggas aint making hip-hop dey makin pop music. Come thru & channel to hear what I am talkin about.
i will make sure wu ink is on my skin before i die..changed my life yo real talk listen to these people while goin through the struggles and they turned my life around and told me...i ahd the privalge and honour of tellin ghost in my hometown here and shook his hand...mad feelins after that peace to wu-tang wu tang forever baby R.I.P ODB
i will eventually get a wu tattoo ill put that out there for yall randoms thats how excited i am fkn its just gotta be the ebst tatt of wu tho so may take a few years but no shit
never would of really like rrreeaalllyyy known about a lot of the fake shit out there fi it wasnt for these really wise muthafukas from wu man *continued*
True ghostface tellin it like it is to much bullshit in the air. and the young ones don't understand. cause they are part of the down load era unlike us older cats we had to go and buy records and tapes of the artiest we like.
It changed when puffy started gettin jiggy with the shit, lets be honest. Theres still dope hip hop out there but its in the underground, where it started at...
@SmokeyLah1 You bring up a good point. And I think it's unfair to say all Southern rappers suck. Like I've previously stated a few times already. So here's my list of niggaz from up north that get on my fuckin nerves LOL!50 Cent
Puffy ( After Ready To Die, he started fuckin up for some reason)
Fat Joe ( After Pun died, don't know why he lost his way after that shit)
I guess it's a short list man lol To me Puffy and 50 should have never got on as Emcees.
@SmokeyLah1 It actually started when we let the corporations trick everybody into believing that the rap artists on the top 40 are the best and what is relevant in Hip Hop. Also Hip Hop has no hall of fame like rock n roll to commemorate the past greats and award them their appropriate place in history. Hip Hop needs to take control of Hip Hop. Not let corporations run it. Because there will always be dudes like P Diddy in the game...jus my point of view...
No, commercialization killed hip hop and folks not passing down hip hop history or musical history cause "they ain't fathers to their child"....Look at hip hop families - how many of them are headed by women and/or dysfunctional? The secret is our music history and because our families are not intact the history gets lost. Same thing with Jazz, Soul, Blues, and Gospel
@curtisb3000 commercialization yes, but what isn't commercialised these days? everything is about money and i dont want to get into politics but blame capitalism for that even though we have grown and strived to become a powerful race there are still too many differences between society, we live in such a world that morality isn't an issue and i agree history of music needs to taught to all younger children, but I immersed myself heavily into older music, a time where it was real music!
This is soooo real hip hop aint been tyhe same since souja boy stupid crank that bullshit came out man i want the old music back big tymmers ,outkast, mannie fresh, nwa, dr. dre, mobb deep,ll cool j hip hop iswack now come on wtf is a stanky legg and who wants to be like ricky bobby what is the music industry comin 2
Ghost is right.... i do stuff with Rob Base, Scorpio, Rampage, Skee Lo , Big Syke etc... the new kids 28 and younger say... i dont know these guys... sad... noone had listened to anything... when i was 18 it was unreal... in the golden era of hiphop i was driving a 1986 convertable mustang... i am a original consumer of real hiphop. mob deep tapes. will smith tapes... big ups to Rappin 4-Tay my man out in the bay!!!! big ups to DJ King Assassin. . Ghost is right Peace to the D.c.Q , and Mos Def
Yeah things do change, but we got the power to make it change for the better. Ghostface is trying to make it a change for the better. Alot of other artists and fans of the real are doing something about it. I'm one of many, doing something about. I don't listen to the radio, I listen to underground hiphop podcasts. And not all South's shit was bad. Outkast and Goodie M.O.B. was good. MAster P was the start of the South's deluding of real hiphop.
While i agree they did do some positive shit ( none come to mind right now, but I remember a movie Master P made about the hood Bout It Bout it. I think there was a positive message getting the hell out of that drugdealing life.) THing is they had this one rapper (Can't remember his name) but he couldn't even stay with the beat or nothing when he rhymed. No punchlines, no metaphor, nothin at all. He all around sucked. Best thing to come out of No Limit was Mystikal. That's about it.
nah come on bruh, have you ever heard of mac, c-murder, prime suspects, gambino family, full blooded, soulja slim, lil rick, kane & abel, skull duggery, mr. magic, mystical is a joke compared to those rappers a cartoon character, i think you may be refering to the later years of no limit from like 97-02, try 91-96 im tellin you real hip hop and i kno real hip hop you should try lookin up ride wit me by lil rick.
DoctrinGIO, the rapper you're thinking of is Silk the Shocker from the No Limit camp. The symptoms are too obvious. & he'll shock you alright...with how horrific his wordplay is. Anyways, it's always refreshing to hear real talk from ghost. I'm a late blooming ghost fan(since Fishscale)from the south. Still glad we have somebody that gives a damn about the culture spiraling into the pits of mediocrity!!
@DoctrinGIO in the words of pimp C. "put all yo shit on one side of the store, and put ours on the other side. and see who sells out first"
we don't do hip hop. this "country rap tunes". and while i'm at it, ain't none of yall new niggaz up there as good as TI, or Young Jeezy, or Lil Boosie, or Ludacris, or Z-ro, or Chamilionare, or Yo Gotti.
@theaaos I probably know more about Southern hiphop than you do in your whole existance man. I been with Southern Hiphop since fuckin Outkast's "Southernplayalisticcadillacfunkymuzik" and Goodie Mo.b. and even Mr. Scarface. Hell, even LUDA was a great lyricist. And to be honest, it's not the south's fault they lack substance nowadays, it's the white people running these guys. Hell, I'm SURE they have skill, but the damn companies won't let their asses. I blame the slave masters, not the slave.
@DoctrinGIO you should reassess your knowledge of southern rap. you don't know about lil' boosie, or keke or Devin. or 4BM back in the day (before UGK) don't get on here frontin'
@theaaos Oh hell yeah we do! Only difference is, when a nigga sucks ass on the mic we boo their asses off stage! Don't give a damn what kinda chain he got. Matter of fact, his shit gets taken afterwards! LOL! And what's all this "Y'all" stuff man? I've been living down south for about 20 years now lol I'm just more grown than you and can see past the BS. I'm able to look beneath the surface. Plus, why you taking credit for some shit other people do? And by other people, these lame's marketers.
@theaaos And btw, this is hiphop MUSIC, not hiphop GEOGRAPHY class. If you're really about the music, then take "The South" our of your vocab and just factor in that hiphop is about skill and not "How much bitches and ho's I got". Pac never gave a damn about none of that, and neither did Goodie Mo.B. or Ghetto Boys. "My Mind Is Playin Tricks On Me' Was some of the deepest shit I ever heard man. The fuck happened? How'd it go from THAT to this bullshit on the radio?
fuck u bitch hip hop is east coast shit fuck tha south shit is weak niggas dow there r pussy and bitches, weak ass 85 fags kissin men and shit, fuck u peace to wu tang clkan and that real hip hop peace to ghetto boys.....
shut yo fuck ass up nigga you dont like our shit cuz south and east got different styles and swags we dont make shit for yall like yall dont make shit for us like pimp c said fuck hip hop we make country rap tunes
Now that's the realest talk on the subject thus far and a step beyond all these other rappers who scared to say it . They'll say it behind closed doors but put a camera in front of them and they start talking about they love how hiphop has changed . Ghostface is gonna keep it real and that's what I've always admired about Wu-Tang killah bees
Gfk, you my top 10 but shut the fuck up, Ny been dead man, we got a different style, different beats, different cultures, you cant rap over "Tony Montana" just like Future cant rap over "Malcolm", different style of beats calls for different flows. Go to sleep.

Here's the end all be all truth of the matter:
Yes, hip hop has changed and has done so for the worse on the general level. How can I say this? Why would the question be posed to literally EVERY MC who has any legitimacy if it were not?! If the question exists and is that poignant, then the problem already exists. That's just plain and simple. It's on everybody's mind because it is the glaring truth. Yes, it is a problem. Yes, it should be corrected soon. Yes, I pray for that!

@biggvice187 its funny you say that man cuz I went to a boarding school for 2 years and a kid from taber or he was from calgary alberta he was from one of those 2 towns in alberta and he came and he said lil wayne is the best rapper alive and hes never ever listen to Wu as well. I asked him have you heard of Eric B. or Rakim, LL Cool J, Run DMC, Kurtis Blow, KRS One, or EPMD and he said no he hasn't and he doesn't know who any of them are. You cant say someones the best when u dont know history

Pop music it's not entirely hip hop, we need to understand that pop music it's about selling album to the kids, making money and artist don't make money from albums anymore, unless you're jay z or lady gaga, artist make money from tours and that's why artist have to make music with money in their mind. Underground hip hop it's still big and that's where the true soul of hip hop is, not on the flashiness on of music videos. It's a business, it's all about making money, that's it, not art.

@filipinobboy510 they made music based on their struggle and real life experiences back in the day. That music rides with all of us 2day. From Hip Hop to any genre. The ones that strike an emotional chord in the people last the longest. Nowadays the new dudes that get all the publicity make contrived music. Music that's cookie cut or just to make a song. Very little thinking goin in to the creation of songs nowadays. Its the bite era lol. Bite song titles, lyrics, styles crazy times my dude....

The mainstream media is killing hip hop. You don't get to pick your favorite songs, the radio and TV stations that play music pick the songs for you by constantly repeating the same ones, and they only pick songs about sex, drugs and violence for us to listen to (like that's all we know). They say the music industry is going broke, I say let's starve it all the way out by refusing to buy this re-used, recycled, regurgitated nonsense they keep putting out and supporting the underground.

Notice that hip-hop artist that are relevant don't waste time saying one region killed hip-hop. The south has talent, can't deny that, but they make the mistake of letting just anybody get shine: people like Waka Flacka Flames. Some say east coast artist music isn't listened to anymore. Well, the diff. out here is our artist stay doing shows..this is where the underground music scene started & remains. Ghostface don't need mainstream radio or videos to sale records. The hip-hop udrgrnd buys it.

@SmokeyLah1 It actually started when we let the corporations trick everybody into believing that the rap artists on the top 40 are the best and what is relevant in Hip Hop. Also Hip Hop has no hall of fame like rock n roll to commemorate the past greats and award them their appropriate place in history. Hip Hop needs to take control of Hip Hop. Not let corporations run it. Because there will always be dudes like P Diddy in the game...jus my point of view...

No, commercialization killed hip hop and folks not passing down hip hop history or musical history cause "they ain't fathers to their child"....Look at hip hop families - how many of them are headed by women and/or dysfunctional? The secret is our music history and because our families are not intact the history gets lost. Same thing with Jazz, Soul, Blues, and Gospel

@curtisb3000 commercialization yes, but what isn't commercialised these days? everything is about money and i dont want to get into politics but blame capitalism for that even though we have grown and strived to become a powerful race there are still too many differences between society, we live in such a world that morality isn't an issue and i agree history of music needs to taught to all younger children, but I immersed myself heavily into older music, a time where it was real music!

While i agree they did do some positive shit ( none come to mind right now, but I remember a movie Master P made about the hood Bout It Bout it. I think there was a positive message getting the hell out of that drugdealing life.) THing is they had this one rapper (Can't remember his name) but he couldn't even stay with the beat or nothing when he rhymed. No punchlines, no metaphor, nothin at all. He all around sucked. Best thing to come out of No Limit was Mystikal. That's about it.
