Poll Legend or Vet: Erick Sermon

[Goldie]

Now you shitting on Too Short. You're suppose to be Mr Hip Hop around here

 

[Old Man Cain]

Yea that's a good comparison...you know it hit like that

 

[Water Ur Seeds]

I thnk EPMD are mad underrated tbh people call them legends but I feel they are still overlooked...

This solo album is a personally favourite of mine too, not sure what the general consensus is though as its rarely mentioned...

Good looks on the reminder. I haven't heard this in a while but I bumped the hell out of these two joints

Smh, more overrated niggas from the 80s. The Marvin Gaye estate should’ve never cleared the sample.

He owns his own publishing,

I just here to see which one of you goofs are going to say derrrr "He's from a legendary group but he's a vet as a soloist" shut yo ass up Poindexter

This.

I immediately thought EPMD, his solo career didn't even cross my mind when I voted

Erick is nice on the mic. Got classic albums with EPMD, dope solo joints, Def Squad shits, aaaaaaaaaaaaaannd the nigga done produced for a long ass list of artists.

Nah b, Erick is a legend.

That's true though.

EPMD is a legendary group..........but most people don't see either one of them as standalone legends.

The only way they would be considered standalone legends would be if they were just as successful in their solo careers as they were in the group.


Now, Erick Sermon's solo career was more successful than Parrish's..........but no where near as successful as EPMD's.

Thought this song was on one of his solo albums, but it was actually on an EPMD album:

Erick Sermon as a producer is what pushes him into Legend status. There are very few MC's that can also claim Producer and even fewer that are very competent at both.

Like DJ quik?

 

[Swabbie]

Why we talking about Cole? The most legendary shit Cole did was apologize for a rap beef he didn't start.

Legend

Cappadonna even said EPMD saved New York hip hop, ppl don't understand how much impact they made. They was the probably the one who was making real hip hop back then. Even Erick came to Staten Island when they had beef, that nigga didn't give a fuck back then. Heard Mc hammer was robbed in the bay by EPMD and his brother got beaten up in late 80's early 90s. Sadly Keith Murray beat up Prodigy. But thats still EPMD. Even Erick was there.





Imo the best posse cut of all time.

This threads lame asf, you can see that the real LEGENDS respect Erick and see him as a legend. Every rapper that meets him act like that they met their favorite rapper lol.
