I guess no one is really feeling Shyne Po.....

Listening to new Shyne makes me want to kill myself. Seriously ears start oozing of blood...

[HipHopisDead]

You can make your own list but this is why he will show up on it

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lv7_7YSA1oI[/youtube]He Has NYC Buzzing right now

3rd set of Bars breaks down like this

Dice hittin the wall
Decks getting shuffled
9's gettin wiped down
Techs getting muffled
Padicko(sp?) in the plastic
Stacks in the duffle
Niccas comin through
Gettin racks on the muscles
You asked me for money
I ain't ask you to hustle
The industry is hurt
They lookin for the next Russel
The Hip-Hop cops outside
Waiting to Cuff you
The Bloods is on Rikers Island
Waiting to cut you
Niccas on the outside
Just wanna abduct you
Dudes turned they back on you
That you looked up to
Keep throwin mine in the air
I gotta enough to
I don't like spending my money
Nicca I love to lu ya what

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aRQCY_0j2c0[/youtube] Everything about this track was good and nice concept

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gk9E-U45lfc[/youtube] I actually liked "Oh My" better but the sample here is more than enough..

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wOw029NUuAQ[/youtube] His fan base is going to be so vast and of course he teamed up with Royalty on this

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCz7y88AI3M[/youtube] Extended version has Redman on it

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOdLbJGoA_c[/youtube] The fact I have 2 of his tracks in this thread says a lot. The Callabo was so nice on this

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YB_CmKmxyYs[/youtube] He makes good music what else can you say

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8xzD-NJ6Z7g[/youtube] Dropped Drama for Skee and of course managed to fit in Top 5 Dead or Alive who ate this beat up

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GsEO6-IiG14[/youtube] On a different level

I love redman but that track is painfully corny

Rick Ross is corny?

Wow... Dude is the best mainstream hit maker at the moment. Deeper than Rap is a DAMN good album. Hell all his albums are good.

Yeah I really don't get this about Rick Ross. Is he hiding behind the character of a real convicted felon? yeah that's corny but judging him based on his music, he's done a good job since arriving on the scene.

Ross is mad corny, all his stuff sounds the same..He gets no love from real Miami dudes, and the only spins he gets down here is from that herb DJ Khaled on 99 jamz..From a music standpoint he's ehh..Overall hes a cornball

[Governor Dudley]

lol@ross not gettin love from "real" miami "dudes". ross is still popular as hell down here, even after the C.O. stuff. and i'm saying this as a guy who isn't even a big fan of Officer Ricky.

Real Miami Dudes= dont listen to power 96 or 99 jamz, Didnt start throwin up the 3-0-5 last year, recognizes that South Beach is for F%$#, understand that without Trick, Luke, JT Money there would be no ross and most importantly is over 18... LoL at you tellin me whats goin on in Miami, u prob live in Hallandale

I grew up in NMB and Miami Gardens. I saw poison clan & uncle al live, and used to be at pac jam when i was jit. i bought www.thug.com from the 183rd street flea, and i was f*ckin with dudes like pit & picalo music damn near 10 years ago. you sound like a kid who's trying too hard to be 'hip hop" & "real", i know how it is, i went through that phase when i was 18-20.


rick ross is popular in miami, his songs still get spins (i know, real dudes dont listen to the radio), deeper than rap was one of the top rap albums last year, and if ross is performing in a venue down here the sh*t is going to be packed.

One of the best young lyricists by far in the game. Has a classic album in my mind already at the age of 20 with the mastermind, Exile.

He has some real good stuff on there, but to me a bunch of skips as well.

I noticed that Too. He was always third in my ranking of the LOX/Dblock anyway but he still gets it in when he wants to.

He was always the afterthought, but he's every bit as capable as both Jada and Styles...I think his voice and delivery have always fallen short in some ways but lyrically he can bring it. His love track to hip hop was insane even if the concept was already done.

This Jada mixtape might be better than any of his three albums, all solid pieces in and of themselves ((kiss the game goodbye being my favorite)

Bluest will be on this eventually, he's been MIA lately though. I like Wale somewhat and Jcole a lot, but I'm a fan of these heads that were the young cats on the come up when I was growing up...now they're seasoned vets and put out music that is crazy and they haven't lost themselves following a fad. I just texted a bunch of the older hip hop heads I know telling them that Jada came out with a mixtape that is HIS style. It sounds like it belongs 10 years in the past because it's not Drake or Weezy singing, it's not all swag like NY rappers nowadays and it's not chopped and screwed wannabe nonsense...it's rugged, real HIP HOP. It reminds me of what Raekwon just did in that Jada stayed true to himself as an artist and killed this!

But...question...where the hell is Styles?

This was Jadakiss Mixtape and he had like 1 Styles Back and forth track called Top 5 Dead or Alive on the Mixtape. You can go tot that same website (Datpiff.com) and search Styles P in Mixtapes then Sort by "Most Recent" to get some up to date stuff on him or others

[j4remi]

I mean in general, dude seems to be putting out less ish recently. His output is damn near at a halt.
