All those dudes are past their prime and not even close to what they once were. They once were good but nowadays they are only a shell of themselves

past their primes yes, but still better than this monotone fellow.. ob4cl2 was released in just 09 and rae n ghost were both money on that.. thought still does his thing too as does reef.. nas obviously is nowhere near even close to what he used to be but it's still nas

Ghostface has some good songs on his new album too. The one that just dropped 2 and a half weeks ago.

I'm saying if you're a fan of his and downloading while not spending then this is what is keeping him not wanting to kick out albums. At the same time he shouldn't beg for support either. Fans either need to go all in or don't go in at all.

He sounds like Immortal Technique, has lyrics but no flow, charisma, pr distinctiveness.

Los will probably be the next rapper to reach the J. Cole, Wiz Khalifa, Big Sean level. Underground sensation who gains moderate success in mainstream.

Two words: Lupe. Fiasco.

And that's just the rapper category. Kills Lowkey comfortably. Source? Literally any one of his songs.

As for the best poet and lyricist alive, that would be Bob Dylan.

Sideline Story · Post #1340 » by **Sideline Story** » Mon Jan 3, 2011 11:25 am

Best rapper, poet and lyricist alive? That's laughable.

Lowkey is good, but Lupe Fiasco and J. Cole are above and beyond anything he has to offer.

I'm not even going to name countless others who, although past their primes, are still better than what Lowkey is today.
