i think i'd have to agree...the way that fool's flow went from fast to slow in the same line musta been something he thought would catch on...it was so terrible.

did Mos talk about this? if so, where?

>did Mos talk about this? if so, where?

oh right...i always forget thats his song...all i remember from it is mystikal cause he had that "did i do that?!" adlib

not sure what that would be called, but he had it. And mos didn't talk about him directly, he just remade "It Aint My Fault" to address the Gulf Oil problem.

Dre makes no apologies for his own eccentricities. “I was young, and searching, trying to find myself,” he says. “Never did.”-- Andre B

The answer is no, he was second. Malachi the nutcracker was the worst, I even did the research:

Somebody get this man a Pulitzer.

I withdraw my demand




he dissed Parrish.

Actually, I said that compared to the artists of his "era", Parrish Smith was dope. That is the same reason I am not going to put K-Solo in here even though the thought of listening to K-Solo holds little interest for me in 2010, at the time, he was pretty good.

The difference between guys like KRS, Rakim, Chuck D and a guy like Parrish Smith is that their rapping is still impressive today. I would not say I feel the same way about Parrish's rapping now, as I did when I first heard him. But that does not mean he sucked, which is the point I was making.

If that is a diss, so be it.

I imagine running into him as a manager at Macy's or Target. Just seeing him and asking, "Silkk?" and him working hard to deny it, or pretending like he thought i was asking about fabric.

He was chilling with P in a largish entourage at Harbor Seafood and Oyster Bar out in Kenner, by the airport. P, groupies, and random hangers on/ No-Limit Soldiers (although now I think they're all on pre-pay) all the way at one end of the bar; Silkk all the way at the other end of the bar by himself, Happy Days extras in the middle. It seemed like P tried and failed to get them seated together as a party. People would occasionally come over and introduce themselves to P, but they didn't even look at Silkk.

Silkk was sulkking, and my friend acted all surprised, saying "Silkk, I'm shocked!" over and over again. I think he could hear her....

Silkk was the worst I heard on the national level, but I choose to believe that cats like White Dawg and Milkbone, who only exist to me as ads in Rap Pages, had to be worse.

There aren't too many rappers touching Silkk's awfulosity.

That dude's flow was THEE WORST! He had zero presence and his voice was pretty weak too. I'll take ANY rapper over him; Malachi the Nutcracker, I'm always gettin' blacker included. I mean this joint sounds like Follow the Leader compared to those Silkk tracks: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lVF_j548LGs

Maybe I repressed that because he was god awful, but I wouldn't count him because he wasn't really a rapper, but rather poet, and I don't even think he got his album out.

he's kind of like the "SPM" of rap

flow but at times I kinda feel how SPM feels about Dottie X.

What's funny is the first time I saw Coldchain I believe was on Def Poetry on HBO, his shit sounded marvelous a capella, I didn't realize he was going to actually try pulling off that same cadence on every Neptune track he was on though.

agreed...Magoo was nowhere near Silkk level

Silkk The Shocker couldn't even find a good rapper to bite.


"Your current frequencies of understanding outweigh that which has been given for you to understand." Saul Williams

That's how Magoo's voice really sounds.

I think it's just an unfortunate circumstance on Magoo's part that he sounded so much like Q-Tip. I even remember him trying to lower his voice on later records, which didn't work at all because it sounded strained and artificial.

have we forgot most of todays rappers?? There are some terrible rappers coming out in this "autotune/make a dance" era of hip hop....

Not that I'm defending any of it, but it's gonna take more than that to top Zyshonne.

theres some real wackness out there right now... You wanna know why the line is so blurred between dope and wack? It's because Wayne who can be one of the dopest mc's, sometimes comes out with the worst garbage my ears have ever heard... So almost every other Wayne's verse, you can take a wack rappers verse and say it's better than Waynes...

Silkk's first album > Mos' first album

Go Smack yourself and then apologize to your hand for looking stupid - Case_One

http://i54.tinypic.com/nxros2.jpg

he was the first rapper to learn how to rap whilst actively putting out albums. he didn't learn how to catch a beat until his fourth album. he never learned how to do something as easy as doubling up vocals. so when he doubled up, you could hear the words crashing into each other like a train wreck.

what was amazing is that even people who hated rap and never listened to rap could rap better than silk the shocker.

i mean really think about that.

you could mock rapping in your comedy routine and still sound better than silk the shocker. somebody who rapped for a living.

his nephew, lil romeo murdered him on his own shit*

* i don't even know if such a track exists. just thought that sounded cold

slik to stay on beat and finally just sayin fuck it and givin up lol.

Silkky vs. Eli “I diiiiid it" Porter - Winner: Eli /nuff said.

I remember back in '97/'98 when No Limit was riding high. I was in the Navy stationed in Italy. All the "southern" dudes used to ride for Silkk and them dudes on some serious stuff.

till those punk asses turned their backs... Thats ok though... They made their best music in the bay and then made shit...

No Limit started in the Bay? Never knew that...

then he became a bitch....

he was big in the Bay, before he became big in the south... And I'm not saying he went to the south and became a bitch, but the music he was making when he was in the bay was way better, imo....

which is why that whole "West Coast Bad Boys" tag used to confuse me

The 80's BPM, sometimes samplin 80's tracks, 808s on it...the South wasn't really on that vibe too much aside from some Texas music, but especially not in New Orleans. "Bout it bout it" sounds VEEEEEEEERY West.

I didn't realize that until years later. As a youth in PG County, MD at the height of both labels' popularity, I was buying both NO and Cash Money CDs on release day dude. But damn, looking back the only dude out of just about all of No Limit who was worth a damn was Mystikal. And I don't care what you think, that's true.

But damn Cash Money was soooooooooo fun to listen to.

I had two CD booklets...one for most of my favorites, such as Outkast Cube Mack 10 etc....then one that was ONLY No Limit artists!!!! I would buy EVERYTHING they had, including the Basketball compilation and Lil soldiers album!!!

I actually thought Cash Money was a fake NL at first, but I heard 400 degreez n said ok, they are coo...then I bought Wayne's first album.

but because back then, people who sucked like that crashed and burned... I can't remember the dude

dude's video was all on Rap City too -- it was over a song sampling "Flashlight", I can't even remember the verses except the whole "and now I reversed the F Word"

it was garbage. It had to be after like '91 or so because I remember Cube using the same "Flashlight" part in "The Wrong Nigga To Fuck Wit", if I remember correctly ... and wanting to make a beat off that myself

that dude ruined that track. To Kool Chuck levels.
