"Is Philly's Most Wanted the artists least deserving of Good A$$ beats?"


  

          

You may want to say Magoo but Magoo had his own charm. He also kind of made sense as a homeboy from the crew you gave beats to.

But I don't understand how the Neptunes who were already poppin at this point WENT to Philly which has its own scene and gave Neptune beats to second rate artist in a town which has top teir rappers already there? How'd that happen?

The other one that springs to mind is Pete Rock and the YG'z... apparently they had some shit hanging over the man's head for that one

I understood why Melachi was wack. Dude was forced to rap. If your only options are to rap or go to jail, I would be rapping too.

Dude had a unique voice that sounded great on record (after his producer fixed up his vocals to)

He had an iconic look,

He had Charisma on stage/videos/interviews

He had a good business sense and managed to actually get people to fuck with what he was putting out

I couldn't call him the worst if people were actually bumping his shit

Like if Cube had just kept the rhymes for himself, it still wouldn't have had the same impact as Eazy because Eazy made it look fun.

https://hiphopdx.com/interviews/id.903/title.where-the-hell-have-you-been-phillys-most-wanted

it's an interview from 2018 - actually quite interesting. they talk a lot about how signing with Atlantic screwed them over, and how they were instrumental in bringing Beanie Sigel to Roc-A-Fella, among other things.

DX: Okay, so how did the group hook up with Pharrell?

BB: When we got signed to Atlantic there was the A&R his name was Rich. There was also this guy named Ashton Chambers who runs Ice Cream now, so he used to work for Nike so he had a connect with the Nike stuff so he gave it to Pharrell. I guess was trying to sell beats to people at Atlantic at the time. So he was going over there meeting with Ashton to, so we kind of met Pharrell at the place, and Rich was with us, and Rich already knew him, and he was like, “I want you to work with my guys,” and he heard us spit and we spit acapella for like 45 minutes over and over. And after that it was a wrap.

and the same could be said for Mannie Fresh being on a Mannie Fresh beat too haha

Like "Get Your Roll On" is incredible production-wise, who knows what the Hot Boys could've done with it

Moreso, No Limit. I guess Silkk was ahead of his time because off-beat rappers are all the rage now.
