Really?

I cringe when I hear rappers do stuff like this. Same when they do alphabet bars. It is good how he's got some of the numbers in there though, but these sort of concepts have been ruined for me by hearing loads of shit rappers try similar things.

I don't know. I like Alphabet bars. My favorite person doing that is Papoose.

He does it from Z to A also.

Papoose is good tbh, but I just can't enjoy these concepts. They seem forced, no matter how well they're done (which I can respect, as he's put that together very well).

Shit like this has ruined it for me, I've heard too many shit guys try (and fail) to do these sort of bars - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TW7TePsvuqk

I can enjoy some concepts (Common - I Used to Love H.E.R. is good) but particularly counting and doing alphabet bars has been done to death, I can't enjoy them anymore.

You want a dope concept? How 'bout this song?



Pharoahe Monch uses the theme of rape to describe how talented of a rapper he is!

Cuthbert

ffs

Sounds piss funny tbh, gonna have to give this a listen when the match has finished.

Edit - half-time, listened to it, I like it

Three blind mice as we're lost in the maze route, lookin' for the easiest possible way out
Day in and day out, you run into a closed road. Turning into old folk, chasing after rose gold
What they don't know is that it belongs to a fool
Choosing wants over needs, singing songs of a mule
Carrying their burdens when you barely know the person
And that is the difference between a pharaoh and a servant
I choose to serve no man but serve mankind
At the same time avoiding all of Earth's landmines
You step in it and you blow up
You exit or you grow up, or get locked up
The pigs catch ya eating donuts
But I'd rather rhyme bars than sit behind bars
How can a prison cell contain this shining bright star
They have no idea what I could do in a minute's time
Break down the walls of the maze and run through the finish line

epik high - maze (ft. dumbfoundead, myk)

I actually just spent $20 on this particular CD because it's out of print. Part of me feels bad for spending that much on a used CD and another part of me is 100% satisfied to finally have the damn thing, haha!

Check out this song man, it was Monch's most popular and the remix (this particular one) features Method Man, Redman, Busta Rhymes, and Lady Luck, and they all kill it! Oh yeah, and it samples the Godzilla theme in the beat.
