Why do so many of the new NY rappers have the Jadakiss and Fab disease?

    YES,yes there experiences are that limited

    Wow,
    Just because you sound factual with your opinions,
    Doesn't mean your right.

    First off, Jadakiss isn't nothing like Fab .
    Kiss got slept on classic cuts, and been true to himself since Day 1.
    Nobody haven't been a consistent rapper like Jada .

    Why switch up a style that got you through the decades?
    Why switch up a style that got you respected from GOAT artist?

    Since when was Jada a punchline only rapper?
    The Last Kiss wasn't as bad as people make it out to be,
    And its obvious somebody slept on a bunch of Kiss's recent work.

    Homie is respected enough to get a Nas feature, on a 2010 mixtape:

    Kiss and Budden can make songs. I dunno about Bank$; the Big Withdraw was tough, but.................. Hunger for More is the worst album I've ever heard.

    fabs last album was great, and alot of these southern dudes (luda,wayne) abuse punchlines as well

    yeah I like Wayne but I swear this ? has come up with more ways to say "I'm in the building and you aren't" than any rapper in history...

    Seriously though, why do all these think they're Charles Cosby or Freeway Rick. There isn't that much coke in the world. And why are they're always selling coke. Why hasn't somebody can out talking about selling the most heroin, crank, or weed. ? isn't the only drug in the world.

    Not just in NY, there are other regions that have rappers that are limited with what they are able to do. Plus Murda Mook is known for recycling. A lot of people don't realize that the best rappers aren't in the mainstream. You've got take a chance and "go underwater" to find some real treasures.

    YEA it's really sad it's like they have put there own music in a box on top of that it's nursery rhyme metaphors and ? Luda and Wayne need to cut that ? out too it's cool here and there but a song of i'm chilling like or i got cars like my gun is like. I think us hit on something these rappers want to pretend it's 1987 again. teh ? epidemic isn't still jumping off like that Pollice have smarten up but yet folks still rapping like it's all coke moving in and out everyday. It's part of the game and the cycle that these rappers have followed for so long they can't even force themselves to break that cycle. It's lazy music

    i'm a fan of Fab from his first album but what classics does he have? he's a good rapper but he's not very good at branching out that often...the other day I mentioned some good story telling songs he has but he doesn't have THAT many of them...most of his songs are about a. he's in love b. he's fly c. he's fly and he'll take your girl...very rarely does he branch outside of those topics...when he does he does it well but he doesn't do it often enough

    Fab and Street Fam are legit, you read about them everyday in the daily news, whether you realize it or not. I think Losos Way was one of if the the best Fab album out.

    Jada idk about, his albums always fall flat.

    But in 1987, rap was being taken to newer heights as far as lyricism and the music. Yes, the music is lazy but someone has to break out of the old mold.

    I cant co sign this Hunger For More was better than Kiss The Game Goodbye and it's better than Padded Room too. But Padded Room had some deep tracks as well as some dope concept songs. Budden is a punchline rapper that def knows how to switch it up and actually make songs.

    Jada can craft dope songs, i can tell when ? haven't listened to rappers properly.

    The same way people act like Styles P only makes songs, about guns drugs violence etc.

    I've heard all Jadas albums and mixtapes, dude cannot craft songs, he rhymes are all set up around his punchlines. Not to mention he always use the same set up like "i'm in a Maybach Exelero coupe, the color of baby ? ". Dude is formulaic as hell with his music

    LOL Naw dude, everyone knows im a eastcoast rap fan, and i don't care for Wayne, Jeezy, or Ross. Wayne doesn't rap about ? , Ross never switches his flow and is carried by his beats, and Jeezy is all adlibs. I don't think it's no coincidence that no NY ? aside from 50 has popped up since forever.

    Yep. Its ashame. they Fab and Jada are good rappers but i get bored when i listen to their songs. Same with lots of new yorkers.

    And no im not a waka, rick ross or lil wayne fan.
