Luda , Snoop , Nelly , Usher , P Like theyre music or not

[Salino]

ludacris is the best.
Snoop dogg is very good.
Nelly owns becus i say so :D .
Usher is good.
Puff Daddy (P Diddy) owns

Tell me who you think is good :D

[Suiko]

none of the above

[Meijin]

none of the above

Agreed :notrust

Want to listen to good rappers? Check out Talib Kweli and Mos Def.

[Hayabusa]

None of them are any good.

[200 IQ]

lol are you the same hayabusa from narutotalk?

[Naruto Man]

They are all mainstream, and all they care about is being exposed to mainstream thus selling. They make hot hits, not hot lyrics except luda is decently lyrical, but I'd prefer T.I over him anyday.

My top 5.
1-nas-ILLMATIC BABY
2-DMX
3-jay-z
4-Canibus
5-tupac

Sorry no eminem, brilliant lyrics but I can't stand his voice so I don't listen to him, as well as Encore sucked.

[Suiko]

where are the roots dammit?! THE ROOTS!

[Catatonik]

Those listed artists have no interest for me.

My top five Hip-hop list.

K-Os
Blackalicious
Immortal Technique
KRS-1
Last Emperor
Del the Funky Homosapien

[ChaochroX]

Luda- mediocre
Snoop- used to be good but fell off a while ago
Nelly- he's fun to listen to if you want to be all happy time fun music
Usher- he's an RnB singer I don't like much RnB
Puff Daddy- He can't even be considered a rapper he is the pinicle of all suckity. Plus I bet he's the one who killed Big so fuck p diddy and his lame no skill at all in rapping ass.

[dbcomix]

i like all of them, especailly luda! his videos are so crazy!

[Poopahd]

Yeah those 5 aren't listed anywhere near the top in my books. And Catatonik is the only person i've seen so far who mentioned Last Emperor(who is really good) :)

As for a top five I can't make one...but it sure aint what you got there...Nelly :oh. But I guess to each his own..or her own for that matter.

[~Akuma]

Ludacris -hmmm...not really
Snoop - ...not anymore
Nelly - I hate this ugly bastard
Usher - The best ^^
P.diddy- dont like him

[shinobda]

Ludacris- I liked the song, "Stand Up" but that's it... he. is. OKAY.
Snoop- His voice is smooth.. but when he does a song.. it's .. more like he's just talking.. and.. well i don't know rapp..--nevermind.
Nelly- His songs ALMOST make no sense! If it gets hot you don't impulsively start to strip let alone someone telling you to. MAKE'S NO SENSE!!
Usher- I like his songs in his early years than his songs now, overplayed. and he can't dance THAT good. He tries to hard.. to what I think.
P.Diddy- Obsessions is good to hear. It isn't about banging girls or anything.

[~Akuma]

Usher- I like his songs in his early years than his songs now, overplayed. and he can't dance THAT good. He tries to hard.. to what I think.

Thats right the older songs from Usher are better than the new. But he's still doin it good.

[Catatonik]

I won't start a fight, but IMO ,very important, Usher and Nelly are two of the worst things to happen to the music industry alongside Brtiny Spears, and Jessica Simpson.

Note, the above is IMO.

[Ryu]

^ Agrees.
The hip-hop and rap nowadays is just ..mainstream-pop. With less 'singing' and heavyer beats.

[Sazanami]

actually i'm not a fan of raps.
but at least 50 cent is not included in the list because almost all of his music videos degrades women.

[mow]

I dont like any of them =]

Couldn't agree more

[darkturkey]

Luda - neverheard
snoop - not music
nelly - music
usher - mostly cheesy music (think n'sync)

[Catatonik]

I dont like any of them =]

Thanks moe...hehe, my top five is actually six. :D

I used to fall under the 'All rap sucks' thought, but deep investigation provided me with some really cool artists/groups, and I include in that selection

The Sweatshop Union
Jurassic 5
Zack De Larocha
Deltron 3030
Dilated Peoples
The Pharcyde

For a dyed in the wool metalhead, I consider a list of hip-hop performers that long an accomplishment (this list includes the previous 6 I already mentioned)

[candee82]

yeah... judging from the conversation here, and the mention of usher -- I thought I'd pipe in and say that people are getting sick of the same old rock/hip-hop/r&b bullsh*t..... and there is just this big upsurge from a new style coming out of Europe -- it's pretty easy to find, just put 'euro club hits' into itunes or check this link: http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZSearch.woa/wa/advancedSearchResults?albumTerm=Euro+Club+Hits+Vol +

[Hangatýr]

GTFO nub.

[colours]

I like Luda and Snoop, the rest are dumb :iria

[Cell]

I'd rather spin some Nujabes or some Pete Rock than that garbage.

Ad Bot much?

Seriously, why make statements about "same old" when you're doing an add for a bunch of groups and "DJs" who just play the same song over and over and give the song a new name?

And Ludacris is a guilty pleasure of mine, I admit it.

Chicken & Beer was a delightful album. :C

[mystictrunks]

Luda = Underrated

[Lord Yu]

Ludacris brings the fun.

[CalRahhh]

Ludacris is good in my books, I enjoy his stuff, though I don't listen to it much. I prefer him as an actor.

[Hangatýr]

When he asks nigh-underage chicks to 'pop his clutch'?

[CalRahhh]

When he asks nigh-underage chicks to 'pop his clutch'?

No, when he plays a car thief who believes that society is unfairly biased against black people.

[Ronin0510]

Luda belongs on there for sure, Snoops older stuff is way good. Puff Daddy is a good producer....thats it. Nelly is well.... I prefer the Nelly Futardo or whatever her name is. And Lupe Fiasco should be added to ppl's lists of great rappers.

[master bruce]

lupe is underrated, even his kick push was nice and ppl didn't start giving him respect until superstar, still some ppl player hate him.


luda is a beast,nelly hasn't done anything good in a while, snoop has come back pretty nice with sexual seduction,master p is underrated, and ppl like bohagon/rob jackson/stagga lee/ray cash don't even make lists when they should.




ppl are always underrated just bc they are not the highest paid MCs.


fabolous is sick.

[Ronin0510]

Yeah fabulous is nice too. Kanye is good times too.

[Nesha]

I love Luda and I always will.

Snoop's older stuff was better to me. My fave albums were The Doggfather and From da Chuurch to da Palace.

Nelly...Furtado you mean? SHE'S AWESOME!!!

Usher...the only decent album that man has to his name is Confessions. Everything else he's ever recorded is garbage.

Diddy...I liked him better when he was Puff Daddy. Puff Daddy and the Family was the shyt!!!

[superattackpea]

how can there be mention of hip-hop without saul williams?

[Dream Brother]

A train wreck that started in 2005 and is still causing horrific reverberations in 2008.

Gotta love it.

[chaosakita]

Nope, I don't like any of them.
