|
May 02nd 2012 | 55
|
 Don't you need to have some kind of impact to be a legend? |
|
May 02nd 2012 | 77
|
| It depends who you ask. Us 80's babies are a tough sell |
|
May 02nd 2012 | 3
|
| I agree on Kanye. Is 50 getting the BDK pass? |
|
May 02nd 2012 | 4
|
| Perhaps. There can be no denying his influence or impact, however short |

| Um... so are you putting Eminem in the 90's or 2000's??? |
|
May 02nd 2012 | 7
|
| I guess he can be included in the post 2000 class |
|
May 02nd 2012 | 8
|
| Yea, same as Wayne and Jay to me. And how Drake might be for |
|
May 02nd 2012 | 10
|
 Gotta disagree on Jay |
|

|
May 02nd 2012 | 12
|
| Low key, he started to decline before jail though |
|
May 02nd 2012 | 14
|
| yup, T.I. vs T.I.P. was when I got off the train |
|
May 02nd 2012 | 30

|
May 02nd 2012 | 13

|
May 02nd 2012 | 32
|
| And you're right about Ross... |
|
May 02nd 2012 | 38
|
| eh. at this point, if Drake keeps his lane or even better |
|
May 02nd 2012 | 27

|
May 02nd 2012 | 15
|
| underground legend who will be appreciated by many... |
|
May 02nd 2012 | 17

| Nope. He wasn't popular enough. Mos Def could have been one, |
|
May 02nd 2012 | 20
|
| talib kweli is the only classic lp i can think |
|
May 07th 2012 | 209
|
| y'all won't like it but Drake and 40 are gonna be hella influential |
|
May 02nd 2012 | 16
|
| They definitely will... I wish Drake would embrace it more... |
|
May 02nd 2012 | 18
|
| ross is a rapper. They all lie |
|
May 02nd 2012 | 40
|
| No doubt... I just can't fuck with him... |
|
May 02nd 2012 | 42
|
| so, to be a "legend" you have to be a pop star, right? |
|
May 02nd 2012 | 19
|
| You have to have impact on a major scale |
|
May 02nd 2012 | 21
|
| so you have to be a pop star to have large scale influence? |
|
May 02nd 2012 | 23
|
| Depends on who you consider a pop star |
|
May 02nd 2012 | 24
