I know everybody want to be Jordan (Jay-Z, Biggie Rakim etc..) but the Scottie Pippens of rap have stayed on their lane, kept their mouth shut, and ate well over the years. Who are the SP of Hip Hop? Who are the ones you like and respect?

Here are a few that come to mind:

1. Memphis Bleek: rode Jigga to championships, got 2 Gold records, ate well off tours, killed intro to Vol.2...living a good life
2. LLoyd Banks: Didnt fall victim like Young Buck and Game (Game eats..I know)..Plat LP and eat well on tour and during G-Unit
3.Meek Millz: riding with Ross...eating good...not trying to be Jordan
5. Spliff Starr rode Busta 4 ever & ate on tour

...those are just some that come to mind

Go...

The avatar is old. And, no, that hat was not a groovy style back then, either.

Jay wasn't even close to being to the main feature of Jaz's records, as as the most he had to say was on "The Originators". He didn't even steal the show on "The Originators", or even tracks like "Can I Get Open" or "Show and Prove". It wasn't until he crashed and burned on the solo tip, dipped, regrouped, and then tried again with his mentor's assistance that he got over the hump.

Maybe "Pippen" wasn't the word, he was borderline BJ Armstrong before "In My Lifetime" (the song) and RD caught fire.

but lets be real, Jaz was a low class b grade artist at best...dude was never close to being a big time player

just thinking

Busta is not a Pippen. He was the leader of the Flip Mode

Redman.....not sure what he is. He was a Pippen during the height of EPMD though....

>Busta is not a Pippen. He was the leader of the Flip Mode

re-read what you typed

"Leader of the Flip Mode" is NOT a resume builder mayne (that's like being lead triangle for the monkees or something)

>Redman.....not sure what he is. He was a Pippen during the
>height of EPMD though....

my point with both of them is they shine their best when they are working with others, and when they are solo it's not as great as their best pair-ups

think about it....

Bleek is more Ron Mercer if anything

lol...He ain't even Horace...

Bleek was BJ Armstorng....

GOAT of his era......long live Prince.....God is alive....

though the closest one to his Jordan would be Nas and thats a stretch.

Scottie was one of the NBA's top 50 of all time. Meaning, without Jordan he still has ( had) a pretty damned good career.


So we gotta find an MC who might be good enough to do his own thang without his mentor. How's about somebody like Ice Cube ( who left NWA)?

Cube didn't just survive without N.W.A., he got bigger.

I think Sigel to Jay-Z is the best one that I can think of.

Bingo

he pretty much keeps the Outkast name and brand alive, we all know he ain't never gonna tower of 3 stacks, however tell me another cat who has stayed loyal and didn't pull a Kobe and throw his boy way under the bus?

being a scottie is a compliment when you understand all the big and little things he did and kept his cool and collected jewlery and almost went all the way his ownself.

nicest Outkast-related anything in a LONG time. I liked it better than Idlewild and about 65% of a certain double album

Let's hope Big Boi is a few albums away from that fall from grace.

I agree.

thought about him for a moment but I guess I see him and andre as a LOT closer than most might (even though andre is regarded highly by me, i just think the two are relatively that much better than so many others)

All Star level player on his own, but it just so happen that he was on the same squad with a once in a generation great..

We have a winner. This on a large scale and Sadat on a small scale.

I absolutely reject the notion that Prodigy is so much better than Havoc. He's not, and I've never heard evidence of the contrary. I would say they are equally as good.

Jordan!

....they were even on Juvenile Hell ...Prodigy was better on Infamous, Hell on Earth & Murda Muzik ...everything after that I feel Havoc has been better ...but on their 3 best albums? Prodigy was better

Prodigy was better when they were at the apex of their careers

and for a while they were winning and then Wyclef went like Scottie to Houston and fell off and briefly recovered in Portland and then fell off again.

Lauyren like Jordan came back when he went to the Wizards and it just wasn't the same.

but L Boggie ran that ship and they were winning,but He was never on her level, however he was the best sidekick and what theater came from it?

I actually think Big Boi is the best answer in this post, but I figured I'd toss out another one


Dave is nice enough to be an all-star, lock up 50 wins and the 2nd round of the playoffs, but with Pos they're winnin multiple titles.



Prince Paul = Phil Jackson
