*** OFFICIAL *** rap super group draft (3 Viewers)

[Major]

Btw, P-Money is the UK rapper of choice. Although Tinie Tempah is getting the love from the U.S. right now.

Cheeers. I love me some UKHH. Jehst and Yungun are tops to me mate. Honorable mention to Roots Manuva, Phi Life Cypher, Braintax and Skinnyman too.

don't forget Klashnekoff

 

[Major]

Really loved doing this. I could talk about hip-hop all day and never get tired.

Me too.

yep...my work productivity dropped significantly since this draft started

Really enjoyed this as a spectator and learned a lot about East Coast hip hop. You gents did a great job overall.

bugger me... how could I?

 

[5Rings]

*I'm going to draft b/c I have a feeling Jabroni will timeout again and I'll be away from the cpu for a while.

6.09 - Grand Puba

Great voice and flow. Classic Brand Nubian material plus some quality solo efforts. I think this dude will fit in nicely with any group - his cameos have always been on point and I needed someone to lighten up the mood.

Plus I want my Girbauds and Hilfiger tops to come back in :style:

All for one and one for all!Erick Sermon in the 7th is a steal!

 

[Usual21]

I don’t care if I’m name dropping cuz everyone knows he’s out there (and if anybody gets pissed, I'll get over it) but, out of curiosity what’s the take on Lil Wayne and why has he not been picked yet?Too much of a sell out? Too mainstream? Voice and persona doesn’t jive with any of your groups? Just not a good lyricist?Still at Mike Shinoda.

He's horrible. Not E40 bad. But he's horrible.

Cmon man, look at your team. They are all in the same zip code. You've ripped every WC pick. No cred.

Ripped every WC pick? Nope. Just E40. He's just horrible. Loved the Xzibit pick, had Tash on my radar, as well as Alchemist. Same Zip Code? Jay-Z - Brooklyn, NY9th Wonder - Durham, NCBlack Thought - Philadelphia, PASean Price - Brooklyn, NYJoell Ortiz - Brooklyn, NYBuckwild - The Bronx, NYMary J. Blige - Yonkers, NYPhonte - Durham, NCLot of Brooklyn love, but then again the best MC's come from the BK, in my opinion.

 

[Zaxxon]

We ever decide on voting?

I still like my NCAA tourney idea. Just gotta watch out for all the Swires aliases.

I have one name now. One.

 

[Zaxxon]

Sen Dog also left hanging

Ced Gee went undrafted as well. Big shock.

 

[5Rings]

I'm still way back catching up reading. Thread of the year. I disagree with most of the East Coast guys, but its just a great thread and i've heard some new stuff.

I deleted my comment cause it was dbaggish. I commend you for stepping out of NJ to take a guy from NC My bad. I'm corrected.

No worries, man. I'm heavily influences by where I'm from. I just love that 90's NY sound. Even my producer, 9th, has that 90's vibe to his stuff. I love a lot of hip hop from everywhere. Been a Liks fan since day one, love Hiero ('93 til Infinity is one my top songs EVER), Cypress Hill was part my HS soundtrack including the early Snoop and Dre stuff. But the thread was to create my supergroup. Had to be the people I could listen to for days on end.

Some solid talent here. Same zip code?

 

[5Rings]

Point of clarification: is it a requirement to choose a "West Coast guy" or is that just the individual drafter's choice to try to diversify their roster? Not a coastal snob, just hadn't thought in that regards and realized I didn't have anyone from the west on my roster. Noticed a couple people mention losing their "West Coast MC" today.

Some drafters trying to score points with the West Coast peanut gallery IMO.

X 100000000I can tell you guys are from NY/NJ. You guys are dropping serious names i've never heard of, but I went back to school a few years ago and dont have the money to buy the vinyl i used to. That is going to change soon. Most of the new stuff i've been getting into lately if from the West Coast.

[Zaxxon]

Celph Titled and Chino XL should have been drafted.

Yes, thats the guy. After a quick check I didnt realize he was from the '90s. Been sleeping there.

 

[SacramentoBob]

No mention of Keith Murray yet?

 

[SacramentoBob]

Don't get me started talking about Philly rappers. I will go all day.

Never heard of those guys outside of Rhymefest.

 

[SacramentoBob]

Random collection of stuff. I need to start buying vinyl again.

Strong Arm Steady - Klack or Get Klacked (Cali 2010)

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

And did Cam'ron not get picked?

Nope.

Oof.

No MC Ren either

I was about to post this. The West Coast team should have scooped up my favorite member of NWA (after Ice Cube left).

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

Now for the list you've all been waiting for. Top 5 Wu affiliates:1) Holocaust. I've never heard a guy rap like this, ever. Crazy mix of hardcore street, horror core and sci fi. His imagery is ridiculous "spittin darts from the tip of a glacier used as my hideout/rock crusher german suplex while spines slide out". PCP ate his brain up and he is easily the top 5 weirdest/corniest rapper ever now. I read something funny RZA said about him during the transition from Holocaust to Warcloud.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ss5hdsvI2x4#t=03m10shttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u33sSMvsx4chttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NWR3Zhw4S2wHe basically just rambles on these days in a weird voice.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zg1QXXOIync&2) Street Life aka Inspectah Deck, Jr. His lead off verse on Grid Iron Rap was very Rebel INS like. Rarely heard a verse by him that I didn't like.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oLIECFMdqhohttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kW9N1mU5YhAhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r64WPiUNBSo#t=00m52s3) Killa Sin from Killarmy The rest of Killarmy was terrible on the first LP, with 9th Prince (RZA's brother) standing out as particularly bad. It was a bunch of guys who thought it was a race between his rhymes and the beat with no regard for flow or delivery. Killa Sin really stood out. Anytime I listen to that LP I pretty much just wait for his verse then skip to the next song. 2nd Killarmy LP, Dom Pachino stepped his game up so there were 2 MCs worth listening to, plus two cameos from Holocaust.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rg3vh52bGJEt=02m10shttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qoi3yPJq_k#t=00m44shttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z6Td-riVsa8#t=02m20s4) Timbo King5) Killah PriestDepending on my mood, I could switch 4 and 5.

No La the Darkman?

 

[SacramentoBob]

No La the Darkman?

He switched up his style. <_<

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

No La the Darkman?

Was DJ Muggs drafted??

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

Was DJ Muggs drafted??

of course

 

[STEADYMOBBIN 22]

DJ Slip is underrated imo.

I want a instrumental version of every Compton's Most Wanted song ever made.

 

[Major]

No mention of Keith Murray yet?

He should've got drafted solely for his verse on Hostile. He kind of annoyed me after his first album so I stayed away.

 

[STEADYMOBBIN 22]

LOL, Im kidding.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Forgot about this. I'll take MC REn as my sexy flexi if he's still available (looks to be).

Here is my final roster. Very old school but I like how the puzzle pieces fit together.

Producers:

Dr Dre

Eric B

MCs

Kurupt

Easy E

Eric Sermon

LL Cool J

Krazy Drayz

MC Ren

 

[5Rings]

I was just saying the other day that Wise Intelligent should get drafted. Was a big fan of his in the day. Don't see him meshing with Ice Cube at all though.

Be awesome to see WI and Cube.rock this funky joint!hipple over

 

[Doctor Detroit]

The younger drafters might not have ever heard this, but it's a neat tune in the DJ Jazzy Jeff mold.

I met him a few years ago in Guildford, U.K. at a charity thing where he was a guest. I was talking to him about American football and he mentioned that he was a record producer and rapper and his music was known in the states. When he said Derek B I laughed, Goodgrove was definitely a favorite of mine. He died last year, rip British rapper guy who spoke to me at a benefit.

Speaking of A+, who was the best child rapper? that was a definitely a trend for a while. I have Chi Ali, Shyheim, Jamal, Malik, A+ up there.... and don't forget my boy 2 Low representing Houston. Just pulled up this duet he did w/ Scarface:

. Not a fan of the remix but the video is :gangsta:

 

[SacramentoBob]

Depending on what Jabroni does with his makeup picks, LA may finish with the most rappers taken by area.

Cube would lynch that fool

 

[5Rings]

Can't believe my guy hasn't been taken yet. :sad:

tasker quit on me. I'm open to suggestions here.

big fan in the day. aint no future in yo front. he and apache were my onehit wonders who stayed in my rotation too long.hipple almost over.

 

[5Rings]

We needed a one hit wonder category or something similar.

I'd take DES from Derelect Camp (first guy). He rips this verse.

Apache

Chi Ali. Not even close.

 

[Major]

A little surprised Son Doobie didn't get drafted. I always loved his flow and the dude dropped crazy knowledge. I liken him to a West Coast KRS:

I'm iller than a porno I got skills like Zorro

Who's Perry Como? Tomorrow tomorrow

Like Ophan Annie yo it's the uncanny

Doobie with bonified funk for your fanny

Suckers, I pick 'em, so who be my victim

BLRRLL stick 'em, and boogers, I flick 'em

I'm guilty your honor, I rock like Nirvana

So f*** a piranha, just like Jefferry Dahmer

The Funkiest

[5Rings]

Did IceT ever go? Not a fan, but the guy was my other WC Icon that was undrafted forever. shocked Run and DMC got no love. another EC guy I liked was SchoolyD.Afrika Bambaataa, Grandmaster Flash, Kurtis Blow go undrafted? My flex would have been George Clinton, everybody stole his pfunk. I really like the Damian Marley call too, that was the best album (Nas and Damian) I've heard in the last few years.Doug E Fresh would be my Producer just cause he IS the Human Beatbox! Loved going to his concerts with Slick Rick back in the day!King Britt should get some consideration, Digable Planets was real different in the day when everybody was either pfunk or gangsta rap (or both).The locals I'd consider would be Shock G, Paris, Black Chris, Mr. C, Dre Dogg (Andre Nickatina), and Ant Banks.I'd go

[Aaron Rudnicki]

Love Paris but he fell off after one great album

 

[flufhed]

Biggie drafted before Tupac? What a joke. Biggie had like two good songs. The rest is just a fat guy who can barely catch his breath.

 

[SacramentoBob]

Love Paris but he fell off after one great album

He hates you too. You should've gotten the rappers from The Coup.
