thats why he sold 46, 000 albums LMAOOOOO

Why does skinny ***** continue to show his caved in chest? Nas will verbally destroy him, just like he did Hova in Ether…Soulja Boy your just a boy don’t play with grown men. Nas will go 5percenter on your simple azz and soulja boy will need a dictionary, koran, thesaurus, physics book and the DSM-IV just to comprehend.

This just shows how sad the youth of today are, I am going to blame his mother for the following:

1. Not making sure he finished 5th grade
2. Not teaching him to respect his elders
3. Not ensuring proper nutrition

Soulja boy you are very delusional and need to go back to school and get an education. Your songs are whack, your grammar sucks and you don’t know ***** about hip hop.

NAS is hip hop – you stupid *****hole! you are not even a hip hop artist. Little Wayne does not talk ***** about NAS because I am sure he understands that NAS helped to make hip hop popular.

so obvious

12/30/08, 10:58:am

thats a *****ed up thing to say, after Nas had his back when Ice T *****ted on him….Solja boy is an idiot.

Novice1

12/30/08, 10:58:am

Did anyone catch that he said… “Thats like me saying Im a prof. FOOTBALL play and say basketball is dead. I play basketball I need shut the Fu(k up” Im confused do you play football or basketball.

STEFANY

12/30/08, 11:00:am

You’re 17 or 18 making bull***** dance songs but Nas killed hip-hop?

If I was Nas I wouldn’t even respond to his punk ***** because his career will be over soon.

BADNEWZBULLY

12/30/08, 11:02:am

Why even give him free press for this BS? I used have his back now he straight talking like a Handi-tard special olympic chin strappish lil kid.

12/30/08, 11:06:am

Ignorance at it’s best. He’s looking for some publicity for his flopping album that’s why he did that youtube video begging for forgiveness because he knew he wouldn’t fool people with his simple music anymore. He can’t even talk about NAs because I doubt he can even comprehend what Nas spits. Go back to school little boy and learn some history. Soulja Boy will realize his 15mins of fame is ending and he will have to go back to regular life so he’s trying his best to stay relevant.

12/30/08, 11:09:am

@ black lady doctor saying “Nas will go 5percenter on your simple azz and soulja boy will need a dictionary, koran, thesaurus, physics book and the DSM-IV just to comprehend.” …….. chuuuuch

Hannibal

12/30/08, 11:09:am

SOULJA BOY IS MAKIN A POINT THOUGH, THE ONLY REASON PEOPLE SAY HIP HOP IS DEAD, IS BECUZ NAS SAID IT FIRST, SO HE IS RIGHT WHEN HE SAID NAS KILLED IT

TRU_TO_ALL

12/30/08, 11:10:am

The south ruined hip hop, with their ABC/bubble gum raps. NY needs to take it back to it’s orginal form. The south has bred some true ignorant rappers. It’s a shame.

Watch your mouth Soulja Boy!

Soul Touch

12/30/08, 11:11:am

…this boy doesn’t know when to shut up…

@Hannibal

Doubt it…people have been saying it for years. Nas just had his ears to the street, listening to our annoyance.

Redd Tony

12/30/08, 11:12:am

This aint about South VS North rap people…Let try not to make it out that way all the time…NY got some *****ty rappers too…

Yezzurr

12/30/08, 11:12:am

I believe it was 35,000 his first week… dumb ***** obviously hip hop is alive if only that many people bought your sophomore “BRICK”… Nas’s first album was a 5 mic cl*****ic and over 15 years later he’s still relevant you were 3 then… you can’t even last two years… Long Love hip hop and death to ” YOUUUUUUUUUUUUU” and your career.. do a push up !!

Hannibal

12/30/08, 11:13:am

NO ONE SAID HIP HOP IS DEAD BEFORE NAS SAID IT, SO IF ANYTHING, NAS STARTED THIS WHOLE MESS, I DONT LIKE SOULJA BOY, BUT HE DOES HAVE A POINT

Redd Tony

12/30/08, 11:16:am

@Hanni

I feel you, but maybe thats what Nas was feeling at the time…A mans words that has been doing good music for damn near 20 years carries a lot of weight….

MsFlyAsTheSky(TheOriginalDonDiva)

12/30/08, 11:16:am

LMAO@SOULJA BOY….He is soo damn lame he knows that ***** too him and his circus rhymes. He just said purely because he wants attention..please dont feed the crackheads. How in the hell can you diss Nas Thats like sayin Pac wasnt a rapper Or Biggie sanged opera???? Thats killin hip hop all within itself sayin some ***** like that. Lol!

If I had a dollar for every TOKEN NEGRO I could make CHANGE

12/30/08, 11:18:am

What point has he made, other than the fact that he cannot understand ‘doublespeak?’ When Nas spoke about hip hop being dead he was talking about fools like Soulja boy and the other wannabe’s who have nothing relevant to say. I think it was painful for him to make hip hop is dead, but NO (wo)man can kill ART or the true blue street poets. Real Hip hop has a message/warning. This consumer driven hip hop has done nothing but repeat the DOPE years meanwhile idiots are shoppin in these low-high budget stores trying to attain a LOOK. That’s it just a LOOK. Please the only point that has been made was Ice T was right about that clown known as Soulja Boy while shining the light on his own whack f**kery.

12/30/08, 11:18:am

Tell Soulja Boy; I put emphasis on BOY to stfu. If you want to be an icon, you need to speak proper english, also you havn’t been in the game long enough to start challenging the likes of NAS. As a matter of fact you can just address him (NAS) as DADDY like lil Wayne calls Baby his Daddy

***** first

12/30/08, 11:19:am

***** alladat…ain’t Charles Hamilton going at Soulja Boy? So why is this guy goin at a legend, when it’s another lil ***** throwin shots at him? Ya arms too short to box w/ God….

me

12/30/08, 11:19:am

Bossip must be havin a very slow day with their news because to have Soulja Boy on the site it’s utterly ridiculous, hip hop is dead..but Nas still went GOLD so who cares what this lil’boy is talking about. I feel sorry for his little flunkies, they have to agree with everything he has to say.

Nita1006

12/30/08, 11:20:am

I didn’t even press play on this ignorancy because I KNOW if it has anything to do with Soulja boy it is pure *****-clown buffoonery! You don’t even know what he saying on his song….. a summa summma summma…AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA …….summa dummma dummmaaa….OOOOHHHHHHHHHH….. I turn my swag on….. That dumb *****!!! And I try my best not to cuss but he pushes me to the limit!

___________________________________________________
after nas said that he had everybody tryna step they game up, talking about “this is REAL hip hop”….”I’m bringing the REAL hip hop back” *****ody was saying stuff like that until Nas admitted that it was dead. he upset a lot of people but in the end NAS did these fools a favor.

PURPPLE

12/30/08, 11:22:am

soulja boy’s opinion on anything beyond “fruit snack rap” is invalid.

I love soulja boy, but that was dumb of him still…but everyone does stupid ***** this is jus his time to talk *****..

Hannibal

12/30/08, 11:22:am

I KNOW NAS HAS DONE A LOT FOR HIP HOP, SOME SAY HE IS THE GREATEST EVER, BUT ALL IM SAYIN IS, THE “HIP HOP IS DEAD” PHRASE WASNT THROWN AROUND UNTIL IT CAME OUT OF HIS MOUTH. IF HIP HOP IS DEAD, WHY DOESNT NAS OR ANYONE ELSE TRY TO SAVE IT? SOULJA BOY MIGHT BE THE MOST HATED RAPPER EVER, BUT HE IS STILL PUTTING OUT MUSIC AND DOIN HIS THING, HE IS NOT LETTIN ANYONE BRING HIM DOWN. WHERE THE HELL IS NAS TO SAVE THE RAP GAME?

Yezzurr

12/30/08, 11:23:am

Isn’t it the same country idiot that thanked the slave master.. come on Bossip if that’s not a lifetime ban from your site what the hell is….

12/30/08, 11:24:am

@Hannibal

you clearly don’t know hip hop. KRS-One and Chuck D were the first ones to say that Hip Hop was dead. many people were saying that long before nas did. guess you’re just as ignorant as soulja boy.

NOELLE

12/30/08, 11:26:am

I know that aint A-Rab, and I know that ***** aint cut his hair. He better give me whatever the ***** he eatin, because just like his compadre Soldier Militant, I eat all day and never seem to gain weight. smh.

MsFlyAsTheSky(TheOriginalDonDiva)

12/30/08, 11:26:am

@Hannibal how can Nas words kill hiphop sh*t if anything his words helped BUILD hiphop. Lil crackheads like PussBOY oops I mean Soulja some bull***** that dont know ***** about hiphop claim that one of the greatest in hiphop killed it just because he was spittin truth that hiphop WAS dead because lames like himself gettin signed just for money and dollar signs destroyed it??? Nas loves hiphop ***** he is HIPHOP…love is what keeps something strong….Alot of the artist that are in the hiphop game righ now(ESPECIALLY THE COMMERICIAL GIMMICKS)are in it not because they love HIPHOP but because they love MONEy…and you know the ones because thats all they talk about. But what IDIOTS like PussBoy dont realize is that whats dead can be resurrected and artist like Nas are like the Gods to hiphop that can bring it back…Ya digg?!?

K-mia

12/30/08, 11:26:am

Nas music has substance, so he’s not gonna drop an album every year and a half….what are u talking about??? His last album wasnt that long ago. You stated Nas did a lot for Hip Hop, how many other artist can you say the same thing about…certainly not Solja Boy

gg

12/30/08, 11:26:am

@Hannibal

Nas’ last album opened at #1 and sold more than double what soulja boy sold, and it’s still on the charts. soulja boy’s career ended months ago, and his latest flop is the final nail in his coffin. he was never relevant, but nas will always be relevant to hip hop.

when your album only sells 35,000 copies, then you no longer have the right to try and diss anybody.

K-mia

12/30/08, 11:27:am

Just him stating that its dead, was a huge attempt to save it. What do you expect him to do?

12/30/08, 11:29:am

WHERE THE HELL IS NAS? IF ANYONE CAN BRING HIP HOP BACK IM *****UMING IT WOULD BE HIM. BUT HE HASNT PUT OUT A GREAT ALBUM SINCE ILLMATIC.

Sit yo five dollar ***** down before I make some change ( IMA .....A Diva!!!)

All I am saying is that his chest in concaved….lol

wow, so I guess Ice-T was right after all…

12/30/08, 11:30:am

Soulja sounds,just like some of these young boys,I argue with on the block. They haven’t heard KRS, BDK, Kool G Rap and LL(before he started singing),to know what a MC is.

Hannibal

12/30/08, 11:30:am

AND FOR EVERYONE HERE, LIKE I SAID, IM NOT DISRESPECTING NAS, HE IS A LEGEND, BUT IF NAS DIDNT SAY HIP HOP IS DEAD, THIS ***** WOULD NEVER HAVE GOTTEN AS BIG AS IT IS NOW

Detroit Gem

12/30/08, 11:30:am

Stick a fork in SOULJA BOY! No more bubble gum rap after NAS is through with em. If he even responds at all….that kid will be broke in 10 years after Mr. Collipark rapes him for his royalties from his only hit. VH1 in 10 yr will read….WHAT HAPPENED TO THIS CELEBRITY. Headline reads, “Soulja Boy, the prince of bubble gum rap. Why Nas did it to him”. Next weeks episode…”Shorty Lo, said he done it all but TI did it all”…

12/30/08, 11:32:am

anyone who sides with soulja boy is a jack*****, plain and simple.

12/30/08, 11:32:am

lmao @ Hannibal
now i know ur just talking out your ***** for attention. ***** was a cl*****ic album, so was It was Written and so was Stillmatic. I really shouldnt be waisting time on someone who doesnt know that…you’re worst than a girl when it comes to hip hop Hannibal, you really know nothing lol.

DAMN, I SEE U REALLY LIKE NAS. THE FACT IS, NAS HAS KILLED HIP HOP JUST AS MUCH AS SOULJA BOY. THINK ABOUT IT, THE ONLY RAPPERS CAPABLE OF BRINGING BACK HIP HOP ARE EITHER DEAD OR NOT RAPPING ANYMORE

12/30/08, 11:34:am

Hip Hop isn’t dead. soulja boy’s career is!

***** first

12/30/08, 11:34:am

*****…Hip-Hop is dead. Corporate Amerikkka killed Hip-Hop, all we got to listen to on the radio now is ***** with a chant for a hook w/ a corresponding dance. sprinkle in some sex references and a lil crack and you gucci! If you want some real hip hop, ***** you gotta search for it.

how exactly did Nas kill hip hop? by just saying what the majority was already thinking? as i recall, it was the cheesy bull***** commercial pop raps, like that ’supaman’ *****, that killed hip hop.

b'more

12/30/08, 11:38:am

bottom line. soulja boy is mad because his album FLOPPED due to Nas exposing him and the “fake” rappers like him for the corn***** that they really are. Nas made everyone come to their senses and realize that what soulja boy was doing was not hip hop. that’s why this clown is lashing out.

Hannibal

12/30/08, 11:39:am

ONCE NAS SAID IT, EVERYONE ELSE SAID IT…YES PEOPLE HATE SOULJA BOY, BUT AT LEAST HE IS DOIN SOMETHIN, NAS NEEDS TO STOP TRYIN TO MAKE BABIES WITH KELIS AND SAVE HIP HOP!

Yeah i am a huge NAS fan, but nothing you have stated on this post is a fact, except for saying that Nas made it a big deal, which was exactly what he intended to do. You agree with solja boy…what else could i say to you, i can only laugh.

Cannon

12/30/08, 11:43:am

@Hannibal

You sound like SB now. I can tell you that I’ve personally been saying hip-hop is over for a long time now.

SB is showing ridiculous ignornace on this. He says Lil Wayne was the first to claim “Best rapper alive”…he somehow missed the rest of that statement “Best rapper alive…since the best rapper retired”. I guess he never listened to Jay’s “Where I’m From” where he said “Who’s the best MCs, Biggie, Jay-Z or Nas”. I honestly couldn’t get past a minute.

12/30/08, 11:46:am

PEOPLE DONT WANT TO EXCEPT THE FACT THE SOULJA BOY MADE A VALID POINT BECUZ THEY HATE HIM, IF SOULJA BOY WASNT HATED ON AS MUCH AS HE IS, MORE PEOPLE WOULD AGREE WITH HIM, YES THAT SUPERMAN ***** WAS HORRIBLE, BUT IT IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST SONGS EVER

JJ

12/30/08, 11:46:am

SB aka, “School Boy” represent a decline in substance in our youth. The cl*****, the time spent on creative substance, the true verbage from struggle in wrong to be, eat, and live right. The kidz will never know. That’s as a round 30 ***** speaking!

K-mia

12/30/08, 11:47:am

how can you say that Nas is expected to save hip hop, yet has not had a good album since Illmatic…that doesnt make sense. If he wasnt a relevant artist still making good albums, why would expect him to save hip hop all by himself? Not only that but you’re admitting that hip hop needs to be saved, but saying that Nas killed it because he admitted it too….um thats dumb.

HarlemWorld

12/30/08, 11:47:am

Soulja Boy is an azz clown. How dare he even speak Nasir Jones’ name in any conversation unless he is showing love for his lyrical prowess.

I’m not going to say ALL southern rappers killed hip hop bc they do have some talent like TI, Luda, and Wayne. But there is A LOT of bullshyt songs that came from the south that *****ed hip hop up. I’m sorry, REAL HIPHOP is Eric B and Rakim, the lost boys, Nas, Biggie, Jay-Z, Wu-tang Clan, Red Man, Gang Starr, Run DMC, Mike Geranimo, Cannibus….I can go on for days!!!!!! WTF happend? The south started dropping some bullshyt. yeah, I know some people are going to be mad but that shyt is the truth and nothing but the truth. I only listed to 80s and 90s hip hop now bc there is NOTHING else to listen to. NY needs to bring it back and fast. We are going on a decade of being irrelevant in the rap game.

JAY-Z:NOT THE SAME ANYMORE
RAKIM:NOT RELEVANT ANYMORE

Hip Hop is dead….damn, I’m tired of reading people in denial on this blog. The truth is the truth. If you don’t believe hip hop is dead then name 5 hot hip hop songs out right now! Bc I can prob give you one and most likely its by Wayne or is featuring Wayne. Ugh, sorry, just frustrated. Nas didn’t start shyt, he was speaking for the streets.

c from stl

12/30/08, 11:51:am

@Hannibal, trust me, I had heard ALOT of people making the statement that ‘hip hop is dead’ long before Nas said it. Once he said it, alot of people were relieved to know that their voices had been heard….proof that Nas kept his ear to the street. No disrespect, just telling you what I know…

John

12/30/08, 11:52:am

I feel like I’ve lost brain cells listeting to this. I tried to give them the benefit of the doubt, but I was obviously too generous. This is cl*****ic…It’s sad because they actually think theyare having a deep conversation. NONE of this made any sense. I would pay to see them placed in a position where their are no “urban males.” After sports and music, what else could they comprehend. Get it together……

As for the south killing hip hop:
Thats such a stupid thing to say to me. I live and was raised in Atlanta…since as long as I can remember Atlanta radio has been extremely loyal to local artist. They have always played at least 80 percent local music all the time. Anyone that lives here knows that. That’s how it was before, during and will be after the Southern rappers reign on hip hop. It was when Northern listeners and others decided to like southern rap that it got big outside Georgia….so it was not the south’s fault. Trust me, wack southern rappers were making the same b.s. songs before everyone else decided to rock to it. So before you blame the south, blame yourselves and your friends for feelin it. Atlanta is gonna play it all day every day whether its big outside GA or not.

COMMON ‘RICH LIL BOYS’ TABLE TALK. YOU CANT CLAIM ***** IF THE FACTS ARENT THERE. BUT IF YOU GOT THE FACTS THEN CLAIM IT AND PEOPLE WILL FOLLOW. WHEN NAS SAID ‘HIP HOP’ IS DEAD, HE MEANT OLD STYLES OF IT. WHEN DR. CARTER (LIL WAYNE) SAID HE BROUGHT IT BACK, HE WAS SOLIDIFYING THE FACT HIP HOP CHANGED, BUT NOT DEAD. JUST BORN AGAIN… LIKE A CHRISTIAN. HA!

Give the boy a break

12/30/08, 12:00:pm

Is it not ironical that coming from a boy who told Ice-t off when he accused him that he aint *****. He said “Hip-Hop earned me all these millions” talk about cursing the hand that feeds you. Niave!

JJ

12/30/08, 12:00:pm

@Hannibal,

He that hath an ear let him hear. It’s not that Rakim and the rest aren’t relevant. It’s that in the industry if you see what has the ear of the people you can either do underground and not have your message get out to the m*****es, conform to what has their ear which is nothing that you are about, or not say anything. Rakim has tried several approaches, but he won’t get spins like the superman, batman, noodle soups, and lollipops, laffy taffy’s and whatever else snack you can buy from the corner store. However the mature ears are still listening, we just not in the commercial venues.

I AGREE WITH WHAT YOUR SAYING, BUT THE MAJORITY OF HIP HOP FANS ARE TEENS AND 20 YEAR OLDS. SO OF COURSE RAKIM WONT GET ANY SPINS BECUZ THE YOUNG HIP HOP FANS DONT KNOW WHO HE IS. IF THE MAJORITY AGE LIMIT WAS 30 AND OLDER, RAKIM, KRS-ONE AND OTHERS WOULD HAVE A CHANCE TO MAKE COMEBACKS.

Er um uh Nas is not the first person or even artist to say hip hop is dead. Furthermore Ice T is damn sure not the firt person or artist to say Soulja Boy is hot garbage. I thought the boy at least read blogs. Didn’t he just put out a video saying he was going to try to think before speaking? So much for that.

Just another example of some deep-fried ignorant negro from down south. Logic to Soulja Boy is like dogs to Michael Vick. That ignorant country bumpkin is just confirmation that this is the best country in the world. Even an ignorant slave-t***** talkin dummy from the sticks can strike it rich.

Soulja Boy is right. You reep what you sow. Everyone does but ppl nevver wanna pay attention to the fact that they do. Nas is a legend, but those words he put out weren’t encouraging to the game. he should of kept that to himself. PPl are so quick to say some***** and hate..but hiphop originated at party’s. Where the DJ would spin and the Mc would get in front and get the crowd hype off of what music was being played, THUS creating dance moves. CHECK YOUR HISTORY before you open your mouth..real talk!

12/30/08, 12:39:pm

This is just a ploy for Souljah Boy to get attention since his album flopped. He’s trying to find someone to blame, when the finger should be pointed back at him for making wack music. He was just a fad, just like the other ring tone rappers, so he needs to get over it. That happens when you’re a gimmick, things are bound to come to an end sooner than you think. It’s disgusting to see him really think he’s saying something thought provoking and his co singers agreeing like flunkies, because they completely missed the message of the album title. Him bringing up sales is irrelevant too, because some rappers still sell platinum and gold regardless. However, sales have declined because of downloading, lack of radio play , promotion, or the album is just bad.

@Hannibal
Where were you and Souljah Boy before 2006? People were saying it was dying before Nas came out with that album. Hell I remember myself and others were saying it when Dem Franchize Boyz, D4L, and the dudes that made that song “Party Like A Rockstar” and that was before HHID dead came out. Even if you read some of the reviews for that albu, the reviewer will say the title represents what we’ve all been saying and thinking for a while now. Chamillionaire, Andre 3000, also have said on their songs hip hop was dead. I see other people have stated other examples of other rappers saying this as well, I guess you just choose to ignore it. Also, maybe you just don’t like Nas music, but he has other great, critically acclaimed albums besides his debut.

The big problem with Hip Hop fans is they are so stuck in the past, history and all that bull*****. If you dislike an artist thats out why hate? Show love for him doin what he loves to do. Rakim is a legend, but he will nevver sell. No matter if hes marketed correctly or not. The game has evolved. Things are constantly changing so why do ppl expect Hip-Hop to stay the same?

12/30/08, 12:41:pm

It’s “you reap what you sow”, you’re probably another one of these slave-t***** talkin negroes from down south, arent you? Nas was making us think, you idiot. Do you understand what symbolism is you 4th grade educated chitin farmer? Of course Hip Hop is not dead, but no talent hacks like Soulja Boy are killing the art form, not the revenue stream. Check your history bumpkin, Jazz was killed in very much the same way. It’s around, but no where near the dominant art form it was in the 60’s. Real talk: does your dumb ***** even know what that is?

12/30/08, 12:44:pm

I think soulja boy needs to do some rearch before he can speak on whether hip hop is dead or not. Hip hop has been dead for a while. The reason that lil Wayne sold so many copies in the first week is because he’s an exception. He can rap. If his voice was not so irritating maybe I would have brought the album. Anyway,Hip hop is dead because its the same bull crap over and over. It has no substance and is based on ignorant material. Heres a guy that thanked his slave masters for bringing him from Africa to America. By the way, we also got raped and tortured on the way over here dummy.

NAS IS BETTER THAN ALL OF THE ARTISTS THAT U LISTED, SO THATS WHY WHEN HE SAID IT, EVERYONE ELSE SAID IT AS WELL. WHEN U ARE A POPULAR ARTIST LIKE NAS IS, PEOPLE WILL LISTEN TO WHAT U HAVE TO SAY. IF NICK CANNON SAID IT IS DEAD, PEOPLE WOULD JUST IGNORE HIM BECUZ HE SUCKS. BUT BECUZ NAS IS A LEGEND, PEOPLE WILL AGREE WITH WHAT HE SAYS.

Nas did not kill hip-hop. The south did not kill hip-hop…ignorant, money-hungry rappers killed hip-hop. They forgot the hip-hop was an art and that it was supposed to inspire. There was a time when dope ***** was coming from the South. Let’s forget Outkast, Goodie Mob and the entire Dungeon Crew…the south did not kill hip-hop. That was real music, good music, because they treated the medium as an art form and not just a means to a monetary end. In the words of Cee-Lo in his song “Die Trying”: Before we came being southern wasn’t something to claim. In fact it wasn’t nothin’ too fly, it was somethin’ to blame. Smilin’, shuckin’ and jivin’ I was so ashamed they give The Dirty apparently an appropriate name. Thought about revolution and sung from the soul…so sincere my eyes begin to swell up and tear and it’s clear my music may not do that well up in here. Oh my god, being a ***** must be a good payin’ job. With all the fringe benefits, ignorance is bliss. But there’s a time and a place for everybody’s taste but I know too much and I owe too much.

I think musicians need to realize that they owe their fans quality music. They should not pocket the profit and put out bull*****. The consumer is killing hip-hop because we keep supporting bull***** by helping dumb-***** negros go triple plat. Which just results in the perpetuation of more bull***** music.

I feel like a lot of hip-hop today is like candy. Candy tastes good and it’s easy to swallow, but it’s hard to digest. A person can not live on candy alone or it will compromise their health. You gotta have nutrition. Good music is nutritive and consuming it can only make you better.

LIL Wayne has a great marketing/street team. He’s great at making up hickory *****ery dock rhymes, but who isn’t once they get high? He is ALL persona and tats.’ With the exception of his F**K GEorge Bush song which should be played on all stations twice daily.

Overall I’m sick of everyone giving him credit because he sold so many albums, to WHO? A bunch of syrup drinking black&white people who want a taste of his N.O. flavor. Nothing wrong with that, I didn’t buy his album but I listened to a few songs and afterwards I wish I had something to smoke I was confused. These awards shows are all fake, no wonder Kanye feels he should get one at every ceremony. If anything his music is great for self absorbed suicidal crowds who wouldn’t know good music if it was PLAYED on the radio.

The internet and technology is killing hip hop, r&b, country, rock and every other form of music. I think the lil Soulja Boy does have a point about Nas though. If you are someone respected and you keep pounding something into someone’s ear then they are bound to listen and likely believe it. I always believed that Nas was misguided when saying hip hop is dead. The art of music has evolved tremendously since the days when Fresh Prince was selling all the records. Music sales are down across the board because if you have a computer you don’t have to buy a CD anymore.

The problem is real urban music has become a niche market that its own people don’t even really support. If the majority of music is purchased by mainstream suburban kids why would a record company not put out ringtone music. Think about it what was the last Cd or itunes you actually paid for and didn’t download free that’s why black artists are hurting. Country music is not having these issues. Those backwater hicks stay in walmart buying CDs that’s why Taylor Swift is kicking beyonce ***** in sells. Solja boy messed up his money when he started trying to please black folks.

Honestly, I am sort of happy Soulja Boy said this even though I don’t like him. Although, his grammar could use some polishing he makes interesting points about TI, Lil Wayne, and even Nas. I don’t know if Nas killed hip hop per se but he did make it cool to diss hip hop. He also makes a good *****ogy with the NBA. Would David Stern not fine and NBA player for saying the NBA is dead? Of course, he would. If Lebron starts dissing the NBA think how much money he would be losing for himself and everyone *****ociated with the league.

12/30/08, 13:33:pm

There were a couple of rappers that I can think of off the top of my head that were critical of the direction hip hop was going around the time and immediately after Nas first album Illmatic came out.

There was a moderatly popular Los Angeles based rapper named Aceyalone asking “Where in the hell did the Hip hop go?”

And De La Soul was like, “Whatever happened to the Emcee? Times done changed for the emcee, every woman and man wanna emcee. You know what, I tell you emceeing aint for you.”

Then there has always been a cynicism about “commercial” hip hop among underground rappers and their audience.

So Nas isnt the first to make a general criticism of hip hop but he popularized the disillusionment.

Personally the only thing that “killed” hip hop is marketing and the audience it now has to cater to which is laregly female. Females killed hip hop. Their desire to have club tracts killed hip hop.

There’s probably a lot more Rakim, KRS-One type rappers today than there ever were. You probably just don’t know who they are because *****ody wants to listen to them! The market audience controls the product. Rappers are giving audiences what they want to hear. I think Nas was a little too scared to say what he really felt – “that the consumer is wack for wanting to listen to fun/dance rap now.” Nas was just mad that people weren’t interested in rappers like him as much as they were before. Soulja Boy called him out. Now, of course, Nas will probably crush Soulja Boy in a rap battle. I give Nas credit – he is a great battle rapper. This little Soulja Boy incident may revive Nas’s career.

Ok Nas is my favorite artist of all time so i will be obligated to defend him. the reason that nas sai dhip hop is dead was because people were no longer concerned with hip hop as an art form. if you listened to the hip hop is dead album, he had a song called “who killed it?” in which he questioned who killed hip hop, and if you pay attention to that song, he is saying that large comgolemerates and corporations killed hip hop. so hip hop is dead was a wake up call for artists to start making more music from the heart and not for record sales. nas has never stopped making cl*****ic music. even his last album n*gger was even cl*****ic. he redefined hip hop many times and he will continue to do so. most of you all saying that he is missing don’t even listen to hip hop, let alone real hip hop. (by the way i am a female).
now lets talk about souljah boy tell em. he is irrelevent when discussing hip hop. *****ody iver age 18 will list him as their favorite rapper. I’m all for new artists stepping into the game, but his music gives me a headache. every song of his. he is a waste of conversatio and i even feel like i wasted my time defending nas against someone so lame. ay yi yi. pick up a hip hop history book people. learn something.

Can someone please explain to me the process by which someone kills hip hop? Is this it? Unknown rapper makes fun rap song and it becomes a hit. People then begin to like fun song and ignore serious, boring rapper who has nice things to say but cannot rhyme on beat. Serious, boring rapper gets upset and frustrated that people do not buy his record except those 30 year old hip hop traditionalists/geeks. Then another fun rapper comes out and people like him too. Is that the process of how rap is destroyed?

FYI, I am NYC born to Jamaican immigrants and I ain’t mad at the south. There music isn’t any different from dance music native to my country. It’s a shame that the south always gets hated on. We need to stop acting like it’s a sin for black people to have fun in this country. It all hit the fan when people started calling Usain Bolt a coon for the way he acted at the olympics. I was like damn black people done let white people take their joy. One of my favorite people is Will Smith. He continued to make his “bubble gum” rap and be happy and confident and look where he is today. Some of you Nas fans need to chill with all the anger.

I’m not trying to start any drama, but it is definitely something that I’ve noticed….Carry on, me nor anyone else can change your extreme views and opinions or the fact that you refuse to see how much you like to stir the pot of *****. You can’t think that you can just make bold close minded and baseless statments and not expect for people to get defensive and all worked up.

@junk,

“I think musicians need to realize that they owe their fans quality music.”

I doubt that there are throngs of people out there just waiting for rappers to start putting out quality music. They dont even bother listening to the little quality music that is out now. You and I just have to accept that since the audience of hip hop has changed, it has changed hip hop. Unless the audience changes the music will stay the same. We kinda live in a infantilized and feminized society- thanks single moms- and the tastes of that type of society is reflected in what kinds of music we keep in the top 100. The top ten Rap songs on the Billboard charts today, are for females and the simps who love them.

@junk hip hop is not dead and don’t sit their and say the south killed it. This just shows your lack of understanding. Not everybody in the south raps about what soulja boi raps about so get it together.

on the that not…….

i don’t think y’all really understood what soulja boi meant,and no i’m not taking up for the boys by any means but if y’all would have just listened instead of looking at it as soulja boi dissing nas then y’all would see that he wasn’t. what he was saying is that when artist speak something, then everyone jumps on the bandwagon. like when wayne said he is best rapper alive, did anybody dissagree? not a lot and so ppl gave him that name. or when ti DID say he was the king of the south, did anybody disagree? and ice t said soulja killed hip hop did yall disagree? no yall didn’t and he didn’t kill it. yall just thought that he would have feel off by now because of his music. and he won’t becasue young pre teens and teenagers really like him. and he is the king of the internet. as much as ppl hate dude that boy is still gettin payed on youtube and i mean tons of money. every comment you leave a celeb or if you watch they channel they get payed for that. so when he said that nas killed hip hop i knew what he meant. and where is nas? after he came out with a hella good album? i haven’t heard anything or seen him doing to much so……..

Let music do what music does. If you don’t like it then take yourself to the old folks club and listen to Eric B. and Rakim all night long and break dance while you at it too. You all sound like my parents when they used to diss all rap music when it started. My dad would say “who wants to listen to somebody talk, put on some Temptations.”

Just an observation

12/30/08, 15:54:pm

From watching 3 (sudders) minutes of that video, I came to the conclusion that soulja boy believes that if a rapper SUGGESTS something, everyone believes it (ie- wayne: the best rapper alive, nas: hip hop is dead) So with that being said, if he suggests that his chest is no longer the size of a newborn girl, will everyone believe it is actually larger?!?!

And if Soulja Boy would have finished his homework, he would have known why Nas said and his whole reasoning behind it. Just like K-Mia said Nas made everyone step their rap games up. Watch the interview that he did explaining the “Hip Hop is Dead” Movement. He knew what he was doing and look at what happened.

How about taking your young knowledge-deficient ***** to the library and not worry about what people over 30 are doing. Last time I checked they didn’t need you to instruct them on how to live thier lives. Listen up jack*****, HIP HOP is universal, not for just blacks, white, young, older etc.. What your young dumb ***** doesn’t get is that those 30-somethings you speak of oversaw the foundation of this art form, so we have a special connection to it. This isn’t comparing The Temptations to new R&B you *****ing idiot. HIP HOP is what it is, it’s just like your family, you have the conscious brotha (NAS), the materialistic brotha (Jay-Z) and the backwards ***** country uncle who can’t spell (Soulja Boy), while you may love your entire family you are little disgusted by your country ***** uncle and that’s why we don’t co-sign on that corn-fried bumpkin Soulja Boy. Learn something you dumb little *****hole before you ever try to give someone who older AND smarter than you some advice.

12/30/08, 16:18:pm

I actually like what hip hop was doing. First of all, when Rakim and KRS and Nas were running the game old folks used to always say that rappers had no real talent, they just talked to a beat. You know what, I agree. Rap is and has always been about swag and cool mixed in with witty words over a nice beat. Some people are trying to make hip hop into something it’s not. No rapper has ever given a message like Barack or MLK or Malcolm X or Frederick Dougl***** or WEB Dubois. Rappers are entertainers. If Nas thinks he has what it takes to be the next MLK then he needs to think again. While he me be good at dissing somebody on a record he has not shown me any innovative solutions or ideas to help with the world’s problems.

BTW Nas is still getting paid off of Illmatic so he’s gonna be ok. It’s all about integrity. Just because it sell dosen’t make it music either. We have to expect more our of an artform that we all have the power to change for the better. Payolla has taken the integrity out of hip hop music. There is certain critiria to hip hop also.

@Christies Secret,

As a matter of principle I am against most if not all rap from London. Most of it is just damn terrible. Black music in London is kinda weird in that they havent really mastered rap but their dance music is really really good. London and the UK is known for alot but certainly not its hip hop. I have to check Roots Manueva. I have heard of him but I guess I slept on him.

I wish more black Americans would check for UK dance music because its quiet nice.

Funny that you bring up Badu’s new album. I heard it alienated alot of her fan base. Could you imagine the same females singing, “You betta call Tyrone” listening to her new *****? Doubt it. I heard she was doing alot of work with Madlib and The Healer is an awesome beat. When it comes to beats you dont get better than that whole crew. Oh yeah RIP DJ Dilla. I slept on him too eventhough his production was all over the place.

Ok I am listening to Root Manuva and I am going to tell you right now, MOST UK rap sounds nothing like this.

Thank sis for the music.

I personally think that the whole flashy baller image is 80% of what ruined hip hop. I’m an 80’s baby, (almost 30) and I have definitely seen rap evolve like the song ‘I used to love H.E.R.’ by Common. Even during the gangsta rap era when everybody thought rap was poison, I still had love for the message and cry for help that the streets were trying to send out. But somewhere around 1999-2000 is when I personally noticed a fall off. Everything was about money, cars, jewelry, women. The Roots made the perfect video around 1997 called ‘Never do what they do’ which really depicted the illusion of it all. But the problem is that our youth does not realize that it is all an illusion. It’s all a game and unless you are investing the money that you are gettin’ and not spending it on rims and bull*****, you will continue to spiral into that image and feel compelled to keep it up and that’s why rap artists sell out. They get caught up in what isn’t real and in turn are keeping the reality out of their music b/c the record companies and execs and selling them the false dream that they are making what people like. It’s a vicious cycle.

NYCool

12/30/08, 16:52:pm

L Boogie,
I am not necessarily with the get money mentality. For instance, I hate gangsta rap with a p*****ion. I do not like NWA, who in my opinion TRIED to kill the hood and everybody in it. But the rap purists seem to have no problem with them. They would rather knock Nelly for making bubble gum rap. At the end of the day, I see no harm in making a fun rap song. But I am with you this whole rapping about money and hoes is not cool. I just feel like folks need to really understand what they mean by hip hop is dead. Does it mean rap about real issues and try to set positive trends or does it mean sale records? If the former then Nas doesn’t even fit that category completely – his battle rapping and constant dissing of other black men without offering legitimate solutions is unhealthy to our community.

And to real street *****s, and *****s that respect the art that is Hip-Hop..he did capitalize on that. Nas is too complex for the average *****, therefore they write him off as “lame” or “wack” or whatever. Think about it, people fear what they don’t understand…

It’s almost like: “Just because I don’t understand this *****, he must be wack.” lmao @ these simple-minded fools…but if you took time to listen and comprehend the ***** that Nas spits, you’ll see that he has more substance in 1/2 a bar than Soulja Boy has in his entire life. real talk.

NYC That was a really good point! While I do understand what Nas meant to accompish by making that statement there were other ways to do it. He wanted everyone to step their game up it wasn’t meant to bash black men. I can see how it can be taken that way. Communication is the key to solving a situation like this. Nas said Hip Hop was dead like 2 years ago so why make a You tube about it now. It seems like he is bitter. Bitter because *****ody took him seriously now his feelings are hurt. Hip-Hop is a culture and a way of life for some people and it’s under attack right now. You don’t see Nelly making you tubes about when Nas said. He needs better people around him I think.If we are gonna be diverse with this Hip hop then EVERY KIND of hip hop needs to be accessible across the board. This way we are all being represented. The radio feeds people what the want them to like. That’s why I don’t listen to the radio.

@Kigali

I did not know you were from London. However, I agree with you in regards to London Rap Scene. Back when I lived in London, Neenah Cherry ( I don’t know if I spelled her name right) was supposedly hot, but she was right rubbish. However, I do/did dig Lady Dynamite and Lady Sovereign . But Hip-Hop in London faded out back when “Slick Rick the Ruler”, Monie Love and Young MC left, then that’s when I feel the London foundation of Hip-Hop started to fade away and it has been really hard for London to build a good foundation/roots to making Hip-Hop more crossover or underground movement like it is here. It is starting to get commercialized with artist like Estelle and here we go back to basics again.

I lived in N.W.10 (Kensal Rise area) for a while. I had people in the Chalkhill Estates, and I am very familiar with the late 80’s and 90’s of British Hip-Hop movement. For those real hip-hop historians and enthusiast….(you know who these guys are:) Malcom McClaren (Buffalo Girls Go Round the Outside), Art of Noise and the loss of Curtis Matronix (For those real hip-hop do or dier’s) who made: ‘Fresh is the Word”, “Take Your Time” and, “Got to Have Your Love” left NYC for London (one of the greatest losses of hip-hop to me today).

I just wanted to have a throw back moment for a min about my days in London Town! I certainly miss the Dance Hall spots, and of course Nottinghill Gate Carnival (which was not far from my house).

This lil’ boy need 2 stay off whateva it is he is on…I mean really, that wuz a 6 min long conversation where he repeated the SAME thing the whole time…come on now! Hip Hop is dead….lol…I think what NAS meant is that all this new ***** coming out is whack, but who am I to judge…I’m ole’ school so I like ***** that have meaning and talk about something…and as we can c these kids have nothing positive and worthy to talk about. Read a Book…matter of fact…Read the dictionary…build your vocabulary, gain some knowledge.

I blame the school system. This little boy couldn’t form a coherent thought if whatever nonsense he was eating in that styrofoam depended on it. If he knew what was good for him, he’d grab his trapper keeper (yeah i said it) and colored pencils and sit ant Nas’ feet and be taught by a master in his craft.

Ok to be honest as much as I hate soulja boy and wakk raps, I have to say this. Now I never did agree with NAS a KRS-1 when they was like hip hop was dead. LISTEN HIP HOP IS APART OF THE BLACK COMMUNITY, HIP HOP HAS ALWAYS BEEN ABOUT RHYMES, AND TELLING A STORY, BUT HIP HOP IS ALSO ABOUT WHAT YOU FEEL, AND IT’S THE LOVE AND P*****ION YOU HAVE FOR IT. WHEN YOU LOOK UP THE DEF OF HIP HOP THIS IS WHAT IT SAYS: also referred to as rap music, is a music genre typically consisting of a rhythmic vocal style called rap which is accompanied with backing beats. AND TO BE HONEST THAT’S EXACTLY WHAT SOULJA BOY IS DOING AND WHAT THE NEW GENERATION IS DOING. AT SOME POINT I KIND OF AGREE WITH SB BECAUSE NAS IS SUCH A LEGEND IN THIS GAME WHEN HE SAID HIP HOP WAS DEAD, EVERYBODY FROM WHEN HIP HOP STARTED HAD AN OPINION ALL OF A SUDDEN ON THE NEW GENERATION RAPPERS. KRS-1 HAS BEEN SAYING THAT FOR YEARS BUT BECAUSE KRS-1 IS NOT AS BIG AS A VOICE, *****ODY WAS LISTENING TO HIM, HIP HOP CAN NEVER BE DEAD, THERE’S NOTHING WRONG WITH SB’S RAPS IT MAY BE ABC RAPS BUT IT’S STILL HIP HOP, I MEAN WHO ARE WE AS PEOPLE TO TELL SOMEONE TEH WAY THEY WRIGHT OR THERE MUSIC ISN’T HIP HOP. HIP HOP IS URBAN HIP HOP IS THE STREETS, HIP HOP IS HOW YOU’RE RAISED, SO GET OFF OF SB BECAUSE WHEN HIP HOP STARTED WHITE PEOPLE WHERE SAYING THE SAME THINK ABOUT SUGA HILL GANG, KRS-1, RAKIM, THEY WAS SAYING THAT WAS WAKK, SO YALL AREN’T ANY BETTER THAN THE WHITE PEOPLE. IF HIP HOP IS SOO DEAD HOW COME WERE STILL THE NUMBER 1 SELLING IN THE MUSIC INDUSTRY RIGHT NOW, IF HIP HOP WAS SO CALLED DEAD HOW COME EVERY WHIT BOY AND GIRL WANT TO BE US, YOU KNOW WHY BECAUSE HIP HOP ISN’T DEAD. AND IF NAS, AND ICE T AND KRS-1 WANT TO BRING THAT ***** BACK TO LIVE THEN WERE ARE THEY, NO WHERE TO BE FOUND THEY DON’T HAVE NOT ONE HIT ON THE CHART. I RESPECT EACH AND EVERY RAPPER IN THIS GAME FOR GETTING OUT THERE AND HUSTLING, AND YALL NEED TO RESPECT THEM TO. IF YOU DO’T LIKE WHAT SB IS RAPPING ABOUT THEN TURN THE STATION, OR BETTER YET GET OU THERE AND PRODUCE A BEAT AND RHYME YOURSELF AND ” SO CALLED SAVE HIP HOP”

Half the freaking rappers out there can’t even understand what Nas is spitting… they would need a dictionary, Bible, Koran, some Black history books, the whole nine yards to ***** with Nas!
SOulja Boy is a joke along with his rap career! Nas was soulja boy age spitting like a *****ing genius, go read a book BOY!

12/30/08, 18:47:pm

This ***** gay!
First he start beef with charles becuz he think charles was saying its Soulja Boy fault *****z floppin.
So he tell Charles to step his game up.
But yet when Soulja Boy flop he want to BLAME Nas instead of just stepping his game up.

So basically this ***** doing the same ***** Charles Hamilton did but without any thought or reasoning.

SB doesn’t listen to hiphop so you can’t expect him to know who said “best rapper alive” first.
Its not his fault he can’t process music.

His album flopped
He not sellin ringtones like on the first album
His plastic payless air ones…his yuckz or whatever you call it aint sellin
So he not makin any money

So he just struggling for attention TRYING to stay relevant.

You so FAKE you c*****ographed a *****in conversation and recorded.
You a lame homie

Nas said what everybody was thinking.
He didn’t say it to HATE
He did it to motivate rappers to make them step their game up or hip hop would be dead.
Because the commerical ***** is really *****in up the game.

Only a idiot like Soulja Boy wouldn’t understand

Cause if you’re askin’ – Why is hip-hop dead?
“It’s a pretty good chance you’re the reason it died, man
It’s a pretty good chance your lame *****, corny
*****, is the reason it died, man
You don’t give a ***** about, you
don’t know nothin’ about it
You want this paper, be a hustler
You a hustler, you ain’t a rapper
Get your paper man
YouknowwhatI’msayin, but this rap ***** is real
*****, this ***** is real, *****, ha-ha”
- Nas

Everytime somebody say something bad about SB *****z say oh he gettin money tho
Well thats his reason for doing it not because he love music.
Its because he loves money that he throws the bull***** that he does together to make a quick buck.

I am not familiar with too many black groups from London from back in the day but its just so funny so many of those groups from the early 90s were from London. I never knew Soul II Soul were British

How would you describe Ear Dis? They say broken beat but whateva. You making me miss london now. Aww!

Thats one thing I love about Europeans. They listen to the dopest music. Next time you go to London you should let me know. We should link up.

Weapons of M***** Wackness! UGHH

Nas

12/30/08, 19:34:pm

People have been saying hip hop is dead since 81. Nas wasn’t the first one to say it. Nas was saying that the rap industry has killed hip hop. The art is dead. It’s nothing but commercial artists backed by big money producers. Soulja boy is a one hit wonder like Katy Perry. His stupid dance spread like the macarena.

Nas was trying to reignite a spark in the underground to keep hip hop alive. Soulja boy needs to shut up, take Katy Perry with him and disappear.

@Kigali

I agree with almost everything you said. As a people, we have to want more or we will continue to settle for less and we will aspire to a lifestyle and aesthetic that does not serve us. It’s time to grow up. A fundamental rule of biology is that anything that’s not growing and evolving is fermenting and stagnant. And soon it will wither and die away. If music is a reflection of the state of our community, then we are truly f**ked. Because all I see is a lot of false swagger, hypersexuality, violence, fragile egos, pub-stunting and self-hate…

And people are like, “Awww, it’s just a song”. But anything that you allow into your head is taking up mental *****e and slowly it will change your way of thinking.

12/30/08, 19:48:pm

Nas was speaking of the corporate side of the music and the mentality of executives more interested in turning a quick buck than nurturing rap culture. Nas realized sex, violence and bling, as themes for the music, had pretty much run their course. Album sales had plummeted, and ratings at hip-hop radio stations in New York, Los Angeles and elsewhere had hit all-time lows.

12/30/08, 19:49:pm

As a result, we watch Diddy, Cam’ron, Jim Jones and others brag about wealth and throw bills at a camera while bikini-clad women gyrate in the background. Should these artists attempt to break out of the mold, they’d risk having their work questioned by record and radio executives.

@NAS who the hell told you that they was saying hip hop was dead in 81, if you ask me that’s when hip hop was really coming out for real for real, i don’t even think NAS became that popular until the 90’s. and the art of hip hop is not dead, don’t you still listen to hip hop, im sure you do, so if it was dead then why are we still talking bout it, it’s dead right, leave hip hop alone, don’t talk about it no more, matter of fact don’t support no more hip hop artist just cause you think it’s dead then. I bet you and not just you but everybody on here thats bashion that young boy won’t.

@time to set the record straight

I am with you man. I get sick of cats from NY with the whole “we gave birth to rap” lines. Truth is the South has been carrying hip-hop for the last decade at least. But Soulja Boy or whatever is not indicative of Southern rap. He is MC Hammer with no curl. The boy had a great gimmick that he rode to death…..no he is annoying. From one dirty South resident to another….this boy couldnt rap a damn Christmas gift.

S&J

12/30/08, 20:41:pm

Soulja Boy is highly uneducated so I am mad that he got almost 300 comments out of intelligent blacks. Lets stop paying this lil fool attention. The highlight of his life was buying that fake chain, what a loser. I love Nas and I hope he continues to push out positive messages even though the world doesn’t want to hear it. NAS IS THE TRUTH. LISTEN TO HIS RECORDS. And instead of your kids listening to Soulja Boy up in this hoe, let them listen to I Can.

S&J is right about this clown getting all these replies, but what can you expect when this clown DOMINATES everything.

Hip Hop is dead because we no longer have VARIETY! In the past I could turn on the radio and hear OUtkast, Luda, LL, 50, Biggie and others. NOw on most radio stations you hear Soulja Boy, T-Pain and Bow Wow.
People wou;dn’t be upset if EVERYBODY got to be heard on the radio, seen on tv or interviewed in magazines. Yet Soulja Boy with his LIMITED talent will get more press than Lupe, Pharrell or some guy that makes good beats and lyrics.
But then again what would I expect if I am trying to DESTROY the balck race I don’t go get Nas to do it, I get guys like Soulja Boy.
WHy??? Because he inspires copycats and annoy guys to the poitn that they want to bring him down. You know how many kids DROPOUT of my school trying to be the next Soulja Boy??? 20 black males-that gave up an education to be like Soulja Boy.

12/30/08, 21:23:pm

What Soulja Boy does isnt hip hop or rap. Its another genre of it own. Dont know what to call it but ringtone music i guess fits because thats all its good for….

I have to defend the South….Southern rappers DID NOT kill hip hop. Much talent has come from the south. But I do however partially blame the whole CRUNK MUSIC EXPOLSION……

Maybe if these folks stop riding the popular bandwagon and do their own original thing, the music wouldnt be in the toilet…….

Also I blame people getting into the game just to make a buck. Thats not what its about. If your heart isnt in it…is gonna show. Yeah you might sell some albums but that music isnt gonna last. Whats the use in that? Back in the day, rappers werent getting rich doing this. It was done for the fun of it. Thats what, in my opinion, made the music great. Once it became a multi mullion dollar industry, the market was flooded with bull***** and folks tryna get money. The artistry of hip hop was lost.

I also blame you young *****s like Soulja Boy that dont know who real rappers are. Go and learn your history because your the ones thats killing something that was once great. Im sorry but greatness is not Lil Wayne or Rick Ross. Get a clue!

HIP-HOP IS DEAD!!

Who of you truly gives a f, about a poor kid in the Bronx, with mad rhyme skills, and a vocabulary to deliver a seamless message? NOT MANY, ANY MORE!

We have lived through the Deep Ghetto Experience Era, with the likes of 2PAC, Biggie, GMF, PE, The Ghetto Boyz, Ice Cube, Ice-T, Eric B/Rakim, X-Clan, and 24 others: these artists delivered their message of strife/struggle/pain to an attentive audience….but guess what….

WE’VE BEEN THERE/DONE THAT
*****ODY’S CHECKIN’ FOR THE THUG-LIFE ANYMORE

THE INTERNET/M***** COMMUNICATION/24 HOUR BREAKING NEWS/HIGHER WAGES/HIGHER EDUCATION OPPORTUNITIES

killed the hip-hop star….

Hip-hop is an *****ault to the senses that the majority no longer wants/needs to digest. After all, after the struggle, there should be a ‘reward’. And Hip-hop’s ‘reward’ has been delivered in the early form by the likes of MC Hammer, The Fresh Prince, The Fat Boys, etc…and more recently by the likes of Soulja Boy, Ying Yang Twinz, and 1000 others.

Long Story short: the m*****es have grown out of Hip-Hop. It was an important, defining era, but it’s time has p*****ed, and we have begun to move on. I mean, really… is there really anyone out there who believes Fiddy is really angry when he scowls, knowing that all he’s really concerned with, is whether the new Bentley he ordered last week has been delivered? Or, does anyone really care (in the Hip-hop tradition) that some young rapper in Chi-town is spittin’ some of the most severe street poetry since Pac? Most of us are too far removed to give a twizzle; a dope rhyme will not save my foreclosed home!

For now, that’s all I’ve got….

SB should never EVER mention hip hop or nas. he does not deserve the right to mention those two words in the same sentence.

there are tons of folks on here from the mtv generation that only know about commercial rap. granted, every rapper does not have to be like nas or common. but the media is only pushing a certain type of music. therefore, it is NO BALANCE. it’s so funny, that when i tell people that i listen to hip hop they instantly think lil wayne or SB. they have no clue of anyone else.

“Can anybody pinpoint the day it went wrong
I mean I used to blame Reggaeton
I can’t front
I thought all that was corny
Was it Ja’s fault
Lil Mo said she ain’t get paid
For Put it on Me
Look, bring it up
And dudes get on some coy *****
Was it T-Pain with that funny voice *****
Or was it Lil Wayne with that funny voice *****
The whole game *****rode that funny voice *****
I can’t tell when it happened
Was it when Lil John showed dudes
You could sell without rappin’
Was it Laffy Taffy
I thought they was kiddin’
Shawty Lo said Dey Know
I really didn’t
Dancin’ became cool again
Then came Walk it Out
But I ain’t know
What the ***** *****s was talkin’ ’bout
Unit kicked Game out, they ain’t give a *****
Then we seen the same ***** happen to Buck
It was a few years ago but
I remember the summer
50 made fans start looking at the numbers
A&R’s won’t take risks, they won’t sign *****s
The word swag came out started to blind *****s
Rap dudes want reality shows
And my dumb ***** was thinking that reality sold
Did it start with the iPod
Or when rappers had to
Pay deejays for them to do they job
I mean all the content is the same
It won’t differ
Everybody sold some drugs or pulled triggers
The more you think about it
You gone just get sicker
And why the ***** would Nas wanna call his ***** *****
*****
Was it when the Wu broke up
Pac, Big Pun went to sleep never woke up
Lupe was doing a tribute and choked up
Some of these stupid ***** fans were like so what
Some of them they ain’t educated
And ***** blaming the South we ain’t segregated
I mean it was all good around the ‘Kiss and Beans *****
Took a left turn around the ‘Kiss and Green *****
Maybe it all started when Roc-A-Fella parted ways
Is it natural to shift toward fame
I watched every last one of dudes ***** on Dame
Kinda got that in common
I could dig that pain
When they gave Jay a desk and suit
They finally gave a rapper a chance to come execute
But somethin’ told me the suits at the tables was hurtin’
They fired everybody and labels started mergin’
As far as sales the decline is strong
Ask the experts
They’ll say that the climates wrong
I mean some *****s primes is gone
I peeped it when *****s start puttin’ fake diamonds on
You can tell a dude I spit better than you
But then he’ll say
I’m richer for whatever I do
I seen all this comin’
I knew what we was in for
Back when Erick Sermon had jumped out of the window
Was it when Mase retired
Couldn’t hack it
Tip could
He just needed some more ratchets
Deejays producers, ones that get us the farthest
Said ***** rappers
And they became the artists
I gotta talk candid
Did we start havin’ issues
Around the same time Jimmy and Cam did
Was it when Chingy thought he ain’t need Ludacris
His next album found out that that was ludicrous
Papoose and Clipse both survived
Inkin’ with Jive then getting jived
The man J-Hood repped that D-Block gang
Then I seen dude dragging his D-Block chain
Or did one-hit wonders change it all along
They made labels only wanna sign a dude’s song
And you really don’t know *****
If you think the fans pick the videos on 106
I’m just statin’ the truth
Did it start when Fox stayed in the news
More than she did the booth
Or was it when Lil Kim stopped exploitin’ sex
And ***** is up with DMX, I hope dude straight
Have an opinion
And they gone say you hate
I can’t front
I’m missing the old Clue tapes
And underground sunk further
The feds was on Irv
So The Inc dropped Murder
I never blamed Fab, Jeezy, Rick Ross
Did ***** get lost when Shyne went up north
I’ll never understand the Hip Hop police
When Hip Hop is what Hip Hop needs to police
These blatant ***** radio attempts sound so bland
Twista kept trying to recreate Slow Jamz
Did we send the wrong message with our slang
‘Cause broke *****s blowin’ they rent to make it rain
So you walk in give a ***** a few twenties
And she’ll smirk her face up
Lookin at you funny
This chick told me she only take new money
…Man I *****ed my ***** back so fast
Or did it start when rappers said ***** it
Sacrificed the music and started rapin they budget
Nothin’ wrong with dudes being candy or pop
Something was wrong when Ja did the Candy Shop
We buying our own records baby no ones to blame
Are we a business
That we can’t afford to maintain
The second week show that boy’s numbers ain’t hot
I hate to break it to you
Numbers always lie
Or when Ortiz signed to Aftermath
And now he’s feelin’ the aftermath
Was it Fight Klub *****in’ with them battle raps
But not too many of ‘em getting signed after that
I mean some can’t stay afloat
A million Busta albums
He’s still not mentioned with the GOATs
***** lookin for answers
Time will tell
Was it when Def Jam didn’t wanna resign L
A fifteen year old told me ‘Kast was *****
But rather than spazz
All dude could do was laugh
Or was it when the whole East Coast fell off
Or got comfortable
Maybe dudes was too well off
The more *****s said that they ain’t write down lyrics
The more it started to sound like they didn’t
But do whatever you can to keep the lights on
But dumb it down just became the new Dylan
Honestly I ain’t know what to think
A few years ago
We had the young kids wearing pink
I can’t blame the fans for not knowing a damn thing
When we trained ‘em to be this way
I mean showed ‘em whatever to sell with no limits
Since the early nineties
Sold ‘em a false image
So when some ***** come that don’t fit the mold
It’s like a mole
***** you won’t even do gold
They watch the videos, see you on the corner
With a whole bunch of people
And think that you good
They turn on the TV and see these video *****es
And they think *****’s girls really look that good
I mean they give so many free verses
When the album drops *****’s more like a bonus
Why pay for it, why take onus
When one click of a mouse and you own it”

Soulija Boy sold 3 albums n his 1st week

2003 Jay said that he was the best rapper and then later Wayne said he was the best rapper alive since the best rapper Retired since Kid Boy is only 7 he was still in diapers when those statements were made. Im so glad he hung his self cause I was so over him anyways. Nas please Kill him. He can go to his final resting place right next 2 hip hop. “Soulja Boy just died this morning and hes dead hes deaddddd” Damn sorry Deandre U just killed Soulja boys…. U just cranked your way on out the door my bad your last week sales did that right with catchy lines like this
Soulja Boy Lyric “Haterz Wanna Be Me Soulja Boy, cause I’m The Man
They Be Lookin At My Neck Saying is da rubber band man”
Nas “It wouldn’t be no such thing as jealousies or B Felonies
Strictly living longevity to the destiny
I thought I’d never see but reality struck
Better find out before your time’s out, what the *****??” Well put in Nas own words

D

12/31/08, 01:41:am

okay…even though he sounds ignorant, there is some truth to what he is saying. nas was the one who decided that hip hop was dead and everybody jumped on board. and he made a god point when he said it may have been because the south was taking over.

WHY ARE YOU ALL WASTING YOUR TIME???
Soulah Boy said his first rap record was 50 Cent’s “Get Rich or Die Trying.” Honestly WFT??!!!!!

How do you guys expect this dumb m**&&f** to actually know ***** when he never even listened to Nas or Jay-Z or Pac or Biggie. He started with 50 Cent. No wonder he’s such a f***ing dumb*****. LOL

Oh my gosh. As an educator, I will always have a full special education cl*****room. We need to hand him a dictionary, translator, or thesaurus. NAS is lyrically gifted. SouljaBird take your advice and bite your tongue. Just because he used a simile doesn’t make you the gift of hip hop. Although he had great marketing skills, he didn’t plan long term.

12/31/08, 11:19:am

Hannibal…. you clearly do not know what you are talkin’ about…. Nas wasn’t the first one to actually say Hip-Hop Is Dead….. Q-Tip said it in ‘99 and caught flack for it because it wasn’t that obvious back then….. Andre 3000 said it before Nas did….. and back in ‘94….. Common had made a track called “I Used To Love H.E.R” in which he declared Hip-Hop to be dead…..

The discussion of the current state of Hip-Hop was and still is a VERY popular topic amongst Hip-Hop heads LONG before Nas even came out wit’ that album….. Nas just brought the topic to Mainstream…….

I remember alotta Hip-Hop fans and artists declared Hip-Hop was dead because of Laffy Taffy…..

so again…. know what you are talkin’ about before you speak….

who cares what a ignorant hit wonder boy says. unless he does all this lip flapping his ***** ain’t got ***** going on . When he has as many years then he should talk. One busted ***** song does not cut it boo.

I think more older people would respect the younger ones if they had any type of respect or showed dsome type of humilty. Why has he had one song and got beef with two old heads? Then again why is anyone saying anything to him… It would be below me to even entertain his blogs if I was NAs or Ice T.

His ***** going broke and need some ammo for his sales. Ugly mug

Hip hop is dead with all this garbage out there today. There are only a few rappers left with substance. This boney little boy just puts out garbage. Parents please teach your children to respect themselves and everyone else.

12/31/08, 20:00:pm

First off I agree with TRUE_TO_ALL “The south ruined hip hop, with their ABC/bubble gum raps. NY needs to take it back to it’s orginal form.”
WE did that…!! UP TOP did that…that south ***** aint hip hop B! I don’t care how many “derrty’s” in here are mad readin’ this right now…u ain’t hip hop!
Second to Souljah Boy…you straight up suck, you’re garbage. I’m 35, you was still swimmin’ in ya Daddy’s nutz when real hip hop was out…so for u to EVER in ya young and immature, non-knowledgeable life dare to say that Nas killed hiphop…you need to get schooled. I know it’s about the dolla B, but do what you do and call it somethin’ else…just PLEASE, PLEASE don’t call it hip hop. It’s such an insult to us Golden Age Realists. Peace Bossip & readers. Da East is in da House OMG…

MUST READ AND PLEASE READ ALL TO FULL “OVER”STAND

1st: Solja Boy

I don’t listen to this young *****’s music by choice but strongly respect & give this young brother credit for using the god given will and talent he’s got to provide for himself and his family. We can’t read minds on this planet, so there’s a blind barrier between honesty and sarcasm especially with the youth of our hip hop generation. He didn’t nor have the intent to disrespect Nas. He was referencing the power of spoken word, proclamation, in some what the brainwash of a m***** audience in music when making a highly interesting and trend setting statement. (for those that aren’t that intellectually advanced) …..think about it, when an important person says something, if your president say some *****, then that’s all she wrote, it is what it is. My point is we don’t give this young black man the credit he deserves for his accomplishments or some of the intelligent ***** he has achieved and some of the points all these young, rich, & blessed brother just said about the state of hip hop. I heard the comment that he made about the slave masters and yes I agree it was unnecessary, but he still a youth with a lot more to learn, yet during that interview there was a discussion about Barack Obama and the history of this election. (BACK TO MY POINT ABOUT READING MINDS)….Uh yeah….honesty and sarcasm. My intuition instantly told me that the young ***** was being sarcastic in a sense while fully flaunting the enjoyment of black success (Barack Obama) in his accomplishments.

You know we quick to complain about our conditions along racial lines in this country and true our people got the promise land inheritance just because, but we constantly tearing each other down, picking each other apart when the other achieves. How da ***** you think we’ll ever rise above with this mentally enslaved mentality? ……don’t worry I’ll wait!

TO BOSSIP: (With All Due Respect)

I got much love for your site, being an outlet for and keeping up with black entertainment. I just felt you should all be aware of your own hypocrisy at some point. With Solja Boy being my first example, coming from a single parent home in Mississippi/Atlanta. (Mississippi…slave capital…bad history yeah that state, and Atlanta…home of Dr.King) Why not life this young man up instead of tearing him down and embrace him. He ain’t talking about killing, and a bunch of other negative ***** that it really in “our” communities. That’s what I’m saying I’ve seen the “swirl”, “pasty”, and other comments by the Bossip staff when referring to Caucasian people, the articles about some racial injustice that is very necessary but then you turn right around and ***** all on black talent. CAN’T HAVE IT BOTH WAYS….no homo…lol.. But seriously think about it, and about interracial relationships it’s 2009 get off that bull*****. I bet if I put it to you like this your respect gland will start to over act, black women were raped during slavery, *****s used to get killed for looking at white women, now mu*****as aint bout to try ***** unless they wanna get they ***** whooped or get smoked. Plus there’s not only white women and men who overstand black struggle in the country gravitating towards that strength, pureness, pride, and honor but also many other colors of the spectrum. Although its not about race with me, I fully overstand black history, we as a human race been on this earth for it knows how long, the way I see it everybody, whether you wanna break it down to race, gender, or cl*****….been through some *****.

Final Thought:

I’m sure most may not read this fully or any and Bossip will continue to contradict their message article to article, although I’m a firm believer in minding my business, doing me, and wishing all well getting mine because time spent on another is time wasted on self agenda………I hope I may have reached one.

DTown972

1/1/09, 04:02:am

I’m from the south and I think soulja boy need 2 quit hatin on NAS. NAS is one of my favorite rappers just like Biggie and PAC. NAS is Hip-Hop. Soulja Boy makes Down South Hip-Hop look bad anyway. The real hip hop of the south is Scarface, Geto Boyz, Master P, 8ball & MJG, C-Murder, Silkk the Shocker, Mystikal, Juvenile, BG, Lil’ Wayne, Young Buck, Goodie Mob, Trick Daddy, Trina, Mia X, Rick Ross, Outkast, and T.I.

All yall hatin the south need to peep Scarface new album. Yeah there are some corny MFs comin out of the south but we have real emcees too. NY doesn’t have a patent on hip hop. Im a producer and some of my favs come outta NY (Heatmakerz, Swizz, Blaze, DJ Premier) so its not like all of us dig the ABC rap either…

1/2/09, 00:46:am

“It like me being a professional FOOTBALL player and then i come out and say BASKETBALL is dead…” Apparently this wasn’t a dumb remark but what Nas said was. I’m upset that I even watched this video, just waiting for this dude to be a bad memory.

Miss Rosie

1/2/09, 01:15:am

Well I was saying Hip Hop is Dead before Nas came out with that single. Because it was. We were missing the soul, meaning, and the influence that Hip Hop had. We just had rappers talking about money and sex and that was ANNOYING.

I think Souljah Boy’s point was when a celebrity come out and make a statement, then people will follow it. But I do think that the video was stupid and disrespectful.

If he would have listened to the whole song he would have realized what Nas was talking about.

Here’s a verse from the song ‘Hip Hop is Dead’.

Everybody sound the same, commercialize the game
Reminiscin’ when it wasn’t all business
If it got where it started
So we all gather here for the dearly departed
Hip hopper since a toddler
One homeboy became a man then a mobster
If the guys let me get my last swig of Vodka
R.I.P., we’ll donate your lungs to a rasta
Went from turntables to mp3s
From “Beat Street” to commercials on Mickey D’s
From gold cables to Jacobs
From plain facials to Botox and face lifts
I’m lookin’ over my shoulder
It’s about eighty *****z from my hood that showed up
And they came to show love
Sold out concert and the doors are closed shut

Hip Hop was once the voice of the streets. We handed over to the commercial Pimps so they could water it down and make it a joke. Hip Hop has become irrevelant.

1/3/09, 01:42:am

Man, I grew up on real hip hop, when I was young we had *****ty artist, but alot of these acts today couldnt even ***** with the weakest cats from back then. The reality of it is, for anyone who has been around since hip hop began, we all know hip hop is dead. I dont realy think we can call this ***** hip hop. If I just came from outer*****e and didnt know anything about hiphop and I listened to the radio, I’d think all Black folks do is smoke, *****, and drink. Dont get me wrong, I like to shake my ***** and kick it too, but ***** man I cant even listen to the radio anymore. Music as an art form shouln’t be so one dimensional. We drive all of our artists who are really saying someting so far under ground that the bull***** and party music is all we have representing us. Let me put it like this, if every song on the radio was a TV show it would be like watching nothing but GoodTimes when it stopped being good because the show started focusing on JJ’s coonin’ *****. Soldier Boy really dont have no buisness opening his mouth to say ***** about NAS, KRS-1, or Ice T. Dude, 10 years from now people are still going to be talking about Illmatic, Soldier Boy will be long forgoten, hell I dont even know the name of his album.
