Poll One Gotta Go: HipHop Legends

[Goldie]

 

[Chi-Town B]

Get Nas the fuck up outta here.

 

[Dwayne]

I factored in Cube movies

But if we talking just music I’m voting for Cube to get gone.

 

[Lou Cypher]

For me, its DMX. Love his music up through Grand Champ, but his personal struggles really hindered his later career.

With cube, his music ain't really been consistent for a long time, but if you lose cube, you lose nwa. 2pac was consistent up until his death. Nas has some duds in the middle of his career, but hes always been dope.

 

[Sky Davis]

Easily picked DMX

Came the latest and he’s the least important.

Pretty simple tbh

GOD bless the dead but DMX got 2 good albums. (Flesh of my flesh & It’s dark and hell is hot)… The rest of them shits got a joint here and there but the full albums ain’t hitting on shit…

 

[Duwop]

I voted cube.

His music is meh.

X dropped two classics in one year. That left a forever impression on me.

Outside of a good day, I don't think I know any cube verses by heart.

Moment of truth:

I avoided picking Cube because of his contribution to NWA and all of his movies…

Picking Cube borderline felt blasphemous.

 

[Maywood]

I’m amazed by this board every week


Still

 

[mryounggun]

I'm pretty sure they just mean their rap catalogue. Not their movies. Either way. this one is easy for me. Cube can go.

 

[Duwop]

It clearly says just rap.

 

[Water Ur Seeds]

From a personal standpoint its Cube... We not counting groups, like NWA... just solo and features material right???

Cube hasnt really dropped any dope music since 2000 (war and peace vol.2)... DMX was dropping dope project after project right up to 2003 (grand champ)...

X's music just hits too hard to get rid of for me, he was a one of a kind... Theres no one like him and prolly never will be again...

 

[Chi-Town B]

NWA and hus first 3 albums, you cant erase Cube and lose that.

 

[Water Ur Seeds]

GOD bless the dead but DMX got 2 good albums. (Flesh of my flesh & It’s dark and hell is hot)… The rest of them shits got a joint here and there but the full albums ain’t hitting on shit…

'The Great Depression' might well be my favourite X album after 'Its Dark and Hell Is Hot' tbh

 

[illed_Out]

I hate to make this sound deeper than it has to be but…

I don’t know man. Once I found out X was a crack head I looked at him different…

I’m not glorifying it but I sold crack.

I grew up in an era where it was NEVER cool to be the junkie and it was frowned upon…

As an early 80’s baby a lot of us grew up looking down on our elders that were in the streets getting high. We lost respect for them…

A lot of us raised ourselves and each other because our elders were crack heads…

 

[Chi-Town B]

X smoking crack didn't make me not listen to his music. Nas being boring did make me not listen to his music.

 

[God_Body]

X easily. Nigga fell off after 3 albums. And he was a cluck.

 

[illed_Out]

X smoking crack didn't make me not listen to his music. Nas being boring did make me not listen to his music.

Bro you’re a 2026 g unit souljah, that’s equivalent to X taking a blast and going in the booth and dropping “X gone give it to ya”… Shit had you hyped huh ??

GOD bless the dead…

 

[NotRol]

Theyre all staying

 

[Nah Son]

Cube a true legend but his albums aged the worst
