Rakim 50 and still rapping and no one says nothing. Jz 40 and ppl complaining about him still rapping. So they really complaining about him being filthy rich and successful
DONT READ THIS, Im a rapper/producer workin out of Philly. Im not the typical product you might think of when you hear ‘rapper/producer from philly’. My music is my life and I take it very serious. The music that I release is on point as far as production and I’ll let you be the judge of the content and flow.
Give some of my songs a listen and you wont regret using the time to hear me, in fact I almost guarantee you will walk away saying he’s got 'IT'. Thanks 4 your time, appreciate the support
@eBossMusic im from philly so i support you no matter what. my cousin is looking for production. his rap name is pride. you can find that on facebook.
@Loyalty1269 word mann... i only have a Like page on FB so i cant look at other profiles... but tell him to get at me on here... send me a message, im down to link up
@eBossMusic cool man. he also has a youtube page under the name Maxenevitable... checkem out. some old stuff is on there. he just put out his first solo mixtape which is amazing for 19 years old... tellem his cousin referred you to him. Letem send you the mixtape
@jhnevans751: I'm sick of all these How To Rap books. Just plain stupid! And it's laughable to try and sell something that brothers like Rakim NEVER needed in the first place! Inspiration is all you need, and skillz! Some don't have it, some do. If you need a book to tell you how to rap, logic dictates that we'll never hear your name in the same sentence as, say, Rakim, KRS-One, Nas, GZA. How to Rap? If you have to ask this, then don't!
@MrJazzHOP I could see people using as a point of reference or just a genuinely fun read. You can't be "taught" how to rap, imho. Rapping just comes to you the more and more you observe it.

this mofo doesnt change .... he iz real like was 20 yrs ago not like some uour beloved rappers who turned pussies nowdays singing some shit about sweat with david guetta LOL )) Ra iz da man
hey i would really appreciate if you were to check out my channel im just a rapper that's trying to make it and give people good quality music to feel and listen to
I'm 17 but I gotta say this: none of you teens will ever understand the R, unless you really take the time to STUDY not listen STUDY this man lyrics and flow. Either do that, or go back and dickride Eminem and YM and whatever shitty 'artists' ur radio plays nowadays. Legends like him had to WORK and PERSEVERE to get where they are now. Unlike today where a recrod label can take any untalented gangster, and hoe make them sound like a robot and then it sounds good in a heartbeat. pfff pathetic.
@ELBoxxerDave fucking kiddo.Em got everythang for free? yea? i do agree bout todays fake gangsta rappers but Em is as much legendary as Rakim. this fucking racist thang goin on bout Em makes me want paint myself white just to be on intelligent side of society
@ELBoxxerDave Retarded dude? Rakim praises Em in an interview. You realize that Ems three first albums are considered legendary, its like 3 Illmatics right there. In my opinion, and this is MY opinion, Em is the greatest lyricist to ever touch the mic. He isn't as raw as in his earlier days, but he is still spitting fire, just for a different reason now.
Don't get me wrong, I have mad respect for Rakim, KRS-One and other pioneers but yo.. Putting Em in the same category as YM? Get outta here!
@bergpew I hear people like you so often that state Eminem is subSTANstially better than every other MC that has ever picked up a MIC. Statements like that are so ludicrous. Don't get me wrong, he's a great lyricist, but saying "it's like 3 Illmatics right there" LOL, yeah and my name is Michael Jordan. There are MCs who are better than Eminem and I know cause I've heard their entire discography (from what I could find of course). MCs like Elzhi, Kool G Rap, Pharoahe Monch, Aceyalone, Canibus...
Yeah i put biggy. top 15 ? i mean everybody got their opinion , but if you google or look in the internet top 5 best rappers , biggie will always be there ... just saying
greatest of all time man much respect to him im only 22 so im still tryin to learn more about da older mcs and all i hear is dat rakim is where i should start
You say Hannah Montana-i fucking punch you in the face

fuck biggie and pac. i didn't feel them when they were alive i won't praise them when they dead like other motherfuckers do. rip to guru he was an ill rapper he represented the east. all rappersfrom the east praise rakim they fuckin grew up with eric b and rakim joints so to me he got all due respect.
Im not sure why you didnt feel him. Growing up in the Boogie Down we respected both Pac and Biggie. If you respect rappers from the east then at a minimum you would have respected Biggie. Pac used to rep the east before he started working more with digital underground.

It's true: if Rakim married his lyrical dopeness to the beatmaster DJ Premier, we'd have certified Gold by the GOD.

@Sirgreaseflick Yeah nothing but respect goes to the R. Never conforming f**k Dr Dre. His as came from world class wrecking crew wearing curls and tight sequnce suits. Rakim fan since I ain't no joke!
@xhoni123456 Lol are you serious ? don't get me wrong i like Rakim not to much of a Maino fan but sorry i've heard so much better from rap right now i can run through a list of songs and artist im not hating i have an opinion that i'm entitled to.

@cortezforever 'and he'll be good' oh of course, the more muscular you are, the better a rapper you are. Lyrics are created through talent and thought, not work outs and 'hitting the gym.'
@AlizeCiz lol i guess every rapper in history is a stan to then? rakim basically re-invented rhyming. you been bumpin weezy though or what ? little wacka flocka? maybe even gucci? you know your shit man.
the illest book to pick up if u into real emceeing is that book where they go thru Rakim's style and interview Big-Daddy-Kane, Kool-G Rap, Masta Ace, Chuck-D, AZ, Q-Tip, Pharoahe Monch, OC, Gift of Gabe +tonz more...
One thing we all should take into consideration is the fact that before Rakim, true depth in hip-hop lyricism was rarely implemented in a great deal of rappers' music. Though he wasn't the only one to serve as a pioneer of this most necessary injection, he was the master of it. This is why (and you can research this) he was awarded the crown and title as the "god emcee"--especially since he ushered in the era of emcees calling themselves gods and earths in correlation to the 5% Nation of Islam.
No love for Rakim? That's like hating Hip-Hop. He's Gold. The "R" is iconic, incomparable, peerless in flow, even the left over crumbs in the booth are gold filings ready to be melted down on wax for future DOPE shit. Headphones, hoody, the R in my dome, that's my morning marathon anthem. Mirror mirror on the wall, whose the greatest MC of them all? Easy, it's The God, Rakim.
Lyrics are ok, however it's never classic Rakim, where's the ill, bouncing beat, this is beats by numbers and could have come from any album from anywhere...shame. Every Rakim track was a classic one time...
Rakim and Mayo? I mean maino? Deliberate typo folks. Shock'd when i found out that Rakim made a track with mayo. He forgot the ketchup. The mustard with the custard and etcetera of internal ingredients that is necessary to make a sandwhich. It's not like rakim to forget such things. :D
@kurdistan971 hes not the king of rap kid bitch pussy wouldntgo on b4 tech n9ne because he knows hes shit compared to him pussy ass nigga listen to tech n9ne -blown away. know some shit bout this pussy.
@groalerable i now this and hes not corny your funny. k lets look back at old rap compared to now.. actualy scratch that compare tech to rakim then shove a penis into your anus. and tech im pretty sure isnt an embarrassment pretttttty sure he wasnt wearing ridiculous clothing lol. oh noe he paints his face cool. comparing tech to rakim is fucking halarious because rakim is shit lyrically musically and just bad kk
@groalerable i give him the respect he deserves for helping rap but nothing more i dislike his music and being a bitch cause you dont want to go on before someone is pussy kid go to sleep.
@BigLBigPunBiggie With all due respect sir, "rappers these days"? Without rakim? The majority, in my opinion, of "mainstream" rappers are unrelated to anything that hip hop representED. Intellectually, creatively, honestly, and with a major lack in style. Underground today is ehh..ok. Like Sage Francis said, "HIP HOP is not on the radio." The "hip hop industry" is strictly business. And glamour. Today, it's all about image and the how good a song "sounds", rather then what it means. Thumbs UP.
do not understand how people will find this song and dislike it! must be some 13 year old kids thinkin lil waynes style is the good music is hip hop and this is rubish. lil wayne and any1 who sound like him should not be classed as hip-hop in the same category as tupac biggie eminem rakim gangstarr mobb deep

You say New school-i say shut the fuck up
You say Pop-I scream Hip Hop!
You say Hannah Montana-i fucking punch you in the face
92% of teenagers have turned to New school and Pop.If you are part of the 8% that still listen to real music,copy and paste this message to another 5 videos. Don't let the real hip hop die

Rakeem needs to hit the gym like Dr Dre and he'll be good, real talk I'm doing it. My man looks neglected.

@cortezforever 'and he'll be good' oh of course, the more muscular you are, the better a rapper you are. Lyrics are created through talent and thought, not work outs and 'hitting the gym.'

title of this book is.;; HOW; TO;.RAP

One thing we all should take into consideration is the fact that before Rakim, true depth in hip-hop lyricism was rarely implemented in a great deal of rappers' music. Though he wasn't the only one to serve as a pioneer of this most necessary injection, he was the master of it. This is why (and you can research this) he was awarded the crown and title as the "god emcee"--especially since he ushered in the era of emcees calling themselves gods and earths in correlation to the 5% Nation of Islam.

No love for Rakim? That's like hating Hip-Hop. He's Gold. The "R" is iconic, incomparable, peerless in flow, even the left over crumbs in the booth are gold filings ready to be melted down on wax for future DOPE shit. Headphones, hoody, the R in my dome, that's my morning marathon anthem. Mirror mirror on the wall, whose the greatest MC of them all? Easy, it's The God, Rakim.

Lyrics are ok, however it's never classic Rakim, where's the ill, bouncing beat, this is beats by numbers and could have come from any album from anywhere...shame. Every Rakim track was a classic one time...

Rakim and Mayo? I mean maino? Deliberate typo folks. Shock'd when i found out that Rakim made a track with mayo. He forgot the ketchup. The mustard with the custard and etcetera of internal ingredients that is necessary to make a sandwhich. It's not like rakim to forget such things. :D

@BigLBigPunBiggie With all due respect sir, "rappers these days"? Without rakim? The majority, in my opinion, of "mainstream" rappers are unrelated to anything that hip hop representED. Intellectually, creatively, honestly, and with a major lack in style. Underground today is ehh..ok. Like Sage Francis said, "HIP HOP is not on the radio." The "hip hop industry" is strictly business. And glamour. Today, it's all about image and the how good a song "sounds", rather then what it means. Thumbs UP.

do not understand how people will find this song and dislike it! must be some 13 year old kids thinkin lil waynes style is the good music is hip hop and this is rubish. lil wayne and any1 who sound like him should not be classed as hip-hop in the same category as tupac biggie eminem rakim gangstarr mobb deep
