@rajbhattacharya44272 жыл бұрын
@@jbarral6509 Yeah there was a lot of violence. But rappers were usually pretty chill and weren't really shooting each other then. It was mostly dope boys, robbers, and gangs. Nowadays, rappers kill people to PRETEND to be in gangs or sell drugs. Rappers in that era were largely rappers because they didn't want that kinda lifestyle. There are exceptions but it really wasn't until about the mid 2000s that rappers created the persona of drug kingpin and gang member and things got heated. My point is that rappers were mostly CELEBRATED in their hoods. Their existence alone would unite whole communities, just like Biggie did in NYC. Now, they get killed by random weirdos looking for attention on Instagram.

Legendary moment…all lyrically heavy but in my opinion Big Pun and Canibus was above all others at this table. Pun passed too early unfortunately and Canibus ‘98 was god those was there know the hype around him was real. Of course that debut album wasn’t what I was expecting it was all over the place…Canibus delivered better albums later but many left him after that flawed debut sadly. Also it’s obvious Canibus was like…damn THE PUNISHER freaking took it 😂 mutual respect but Pun was still new here and wasn’t going to let this moment pass by…there is no such thing as shooting for second place 😂 there can only be ONE.
