Song of the day: Who killed hip hop - Joe Budden

[AP3.0]

Easily one of my favorite songs ever. It's so intricate and detailed and really chronicled the decline in rap. Everything from ringtone era, snap dance era, women in rap, auto tune, etc...

Joe is really talented in that regard. I've listened to this in its entirety like 5x since yesterday and its crazy how much of that shit is still going on

What are ya'lls thoughts about this track?

Excellent track

 

[5th Letter]

This was a classic

 

[Mister B. M. Ed.]

Did his thing for like 10 mins. Solid.

“Look, you bring it up and dudes get on some coy shit/
Was it T-Pain with that funny voice shit?/
Or was it Lil Wayne with that funny voice shit?/
The whole game dick rode that funny voice shit”


“Have an opinion and they gonna say you hate”



“We buying our own records, maybe no one’s to blame/
Are we a business that we can’t afford to maintain?

Second week show that boy numbers ain’t high
I hate to break it to you, numbers always lie”




“Maybe we at a cross/
Canibus made one of the dopest diss records but some still say he lost”


Too many bars.

It’s like 11 mins. I got it in my phone.

Classic Joe. Could’ve been trimmed down. It’s like “aight, we get it nigga” after the 10 minute mark.

random thought 1: if Game made this song, would niggas feel the same way?

random thought 2: a song with Joe dissing Ransom autoplayed after this on YouTube. And I also thought about this after hearing “Last Gasp” the other day. Is Ransom at his peak now better than Joe at his peak back then?

you might wanna check this cause when it was originally released, he released three 5 min youtube videos and then it was finally released as a 15 min track
