Is Tupac Corny?
 
You know he is.

Frownland 09-16-2019 07:02 PM

Absolutely.

jwb 09-16-2019 07:18 PM

Not sure what you intend to prove with this.

The net is full of people who don't like Tupac

But no self respecting rap would argue that icp is not much worse.

You should stick to metal.

Frownland 09-16-2019 07:21 PM

Both of them suck, doofuses.

jwb 09-16-2019 07:24 PM

Can you honestly say you put them in the same category?

You're the one who introduced ICP into this thread so...

jwb 09-16-2019 07:27 PM

.... It was a yes or no question

And the basis if this argument is why I brought it up

They're both in the same category of corniness, yes.

I really don't see how it's relevant to the OP at all.

jwb 09-16-2019 07:29 PM

So you honestly have no preference between the two? Your taste sucks tbh

The Batlord 09-16-2019 07:29 PM

I like Tupac. But he is corny. You can be good and corny at the same time even if you're too basic to understand the concept.

jwb 09-16-2019 07:31 PM

I'm not too basic to understand that. I am fine with you saying he's good but corny. If you think he's of comparable quality to icp your taste sucks

Idk how you got that from me saying that they're both in the same category of cheese. I guess Tupac is better but I'm pretty much equally uninterested in both of them, ja. What does all of this have to do with the OP though?

Check the what are you listening to thread you dolt

Frownland 09-16-2019 07:35 PM

Q: Is Tupac corny?
A: Mhmm
JWB: OH COME ON HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT TUPAC AND ICP ARE COMPARABLE

The Batlord 09-16-2019 07:37 PM

I don't think they're of comparable quality. I think ICP are far superior. Tupac is a decent rapper who excels at "rapping hard" but without the East/West Coast rivalry to bolster his popularity wouldn't have amounted to half what he did. ICP are a great pop group, brilliant at storytelling at least in their own way, have not simply one unique idea of a sound but several (even if inspired by other artists), and have personalities that meld to their ideas more creatively than Tupac. I think you just think Tupac goes hard tbh.

jwb 09-16-2019 07:38 PM

The question was based on an argument in another thread

I asked you simply to clarify

Finally, after some pulling of teeth you admitted 2pac is superior

Lol. ICP are literally unlistenable. That's not an exaggeration.

jwb 09-16-2019 07:41 PM

And lol @ you trying to do hip hop commentary

The East West thing only even factored in to his last 2 albums

Stick 2 metal

Just because you disagree with Batman doesn't mean that you have to drag it into every other thread on the forum.

Maybe take a few deep breaths and count to ten if you're too distressed to comprehend two artists sucking at the same time.

He made this thread directly as a result if a conversation we had minutes before in the other thread, dummy

Neat.

So do you think Tupac is corny?

jwb 09-16-2019 07:50 PM

Yeh somewhat

But he's also good

Save it for the "Is Tupac good?" poll.

jwb 09-16-2019 07:59 PM

Eh. ICP are objectively terrible rappers with limited artistic range and yet with a producer with actual artistic range they melded their schtick appropriately to five more increasingly different interpretations of their sound over six albums. Tupac never did that. Almost no one in popular music ever did that.

From this Ice Cube ripoff ****.



To this.

jwb 09-16-2019 08:04 PM

Omg

Tapping out

I didn't sign up to listen to ICP songs back to back

Maybe tomorrow

If not then just take that a concession they're better than pac, you ****ing white trash Virginia hayseed

The Batlord 09-16-2019 08:06 PM

It's not my fault you're too musically limited to listen to any music other than the **** you heard on Radio Los Santos.

jwb 09-16-2019 08:09 PM

Lmao @ radio los Santos being your go to reference for a source of hip hop

I'm enjoying watchmen btw

The Batlord 09-16-2019 08:13 PM

Bro you know that's your in to hip hop.

jwb 09-16-2019 08:15 PM

? Care to rephrase that?

The Batlord 09-16-2019 08:21 PM

Were you listening to hip hop before you played San Andreas?

Yes.

jwb 09-16-2019 08:27 PM

I've been listening to exclusively or mainly rap since around 4th grade. I went to ghetto schools.

The Batlord 09-16-2019 08:32 PM

So why did you never graduate past that? I'm pretty sure your classmates aren't listening to Wu-Tang obsessively like you are, white boy.

jwb 09-16-2019 08:33 PM

My classmates never listened to Wu tang in the first place. I grew up in South Florida you moron.

The Batlord 09-16-2019 08:47 PM

Don't ignore the question.

jwb 09-17-2019 06:06 AM

I listened to rap most of my life... Since I started listening to music really

I was into more mainstream **** till I was 15 or so then I discovered the internet and I started listening to underground(see: backpacker) **** and older 90s rap like Wu Tang cause I got bored of the crunk era ****.

Then I started exploring other genres like rock and jazz and classical etc. I still like other genres I just got burnt out on music discussions online so I rarely talk about music cause I find it boring to talk about.

I still post in the hip hop section cause that's the only genre I can still muster up the passion talk about.

As for rappers being corny I can handle that. I can handle it being white too. Eminem's first few albums are basically every bit as white trash as ICP. But he can actually rap. He has respect for the art form and as such he is respected by other rappers.

What does this have to do with you?

jwb 09-17-2019 06:30 AM

I'm making the distinction for why I don't like groups like ICP. It's not cause they're corny or white. It's cause the music sounds ranges from God awful to underwhelming, imo.

I didn't even really listen to find out what the Kottonmouth Kings were talking about in that song you posted. It sounded bad so i turned it off after 45 seconds tops. It legit sounded like it was designed as an audio alternative to waterboarding.
