MC Serch on Writing Rhymes Before There Were Any Whiteboys Rapping (Part 2)

[@jimmydiresta]

this is so funny to see Serch tell the stories ..on the school bus with him in 83-84 and he would always say "i am going to be hip hop star" and he did it!! i was so happy to see him on mtv in the 90s Love and respect!

Thee Jimmy Diresta went to the same school as MC Serch? Small world.

[@KardiFan2000]

For those who didn't realize...when he was talking about listening to tapes at 12/13 years old, that would've been 1979/1980. It's dope how he went to school with Slick Rick, Doug E. Fresh, Dana Dane, etc.

[@MrWARBUCKS24]

Will B. Smooth - formerly KardiFan2000 Doug E Fresh didn't go to performance arts tho Doug went to Martin Luther king with Teddy Riley

@frank M. Check out the videos on here of Opie and Anthony making fun of Serch, back when he was doing the White Rapper Show. They come across as out of touch old men, presuming he's just a wannabe on the Hip hop scene, and even thinking he was in the group Ace of Bass, rather than 3rd Bass. I think there are two videos of them talking about him on here, one of which was about his appearance on the Arsenio Hall show.

Kory Green he didn't discover Nas he was introduce to Nas by Kool G Rap

[@josephblanchard6248]

Rick Ross is the best at picking beats of all time bro. Nas is by far the worst. I've been saying that waaaaay before Vlad ever did too. Nas was even my FAVORITE rapper of all time, for YEARS. However, after "It Was Written" (his BEST album imo) and released ("Nastradamas") that all changed. I still stuck with him as my favorite rapper, until 2001 and Jay-Z dropped "The Blueprint" tbh. And also, excluding the beef and both of thier main diss tracks and ect., Jay-Z became my favorite rapper, not because of the beef or me thinking that Jay-Z won it off of his songs, or anything like that, the beef didn't sway my judgment at all. So the reason why Jay-Z then became my favorite rapper in 2001, was because that album became my favorite album of all time because of his flow on THOSE BEATS. Nas doesn't have an album anywhere close to The Blueprint beat-wise, tbh.
