No, I'm familiar with most of them, Twista too. I just don't think they vary their flow as much as Weez. TechNyne just goes from on beat to 2xbeat and back again, over and over again. I like Krayzie Bone a lot better than Technine, but he never really strays from the beat, either, he just double times it. I don't really know much Bone beyone E.99 Eternal though. I don't think either (key word being "think") work behind the beat like Weezy or Snoop, and almost no one goes off beat like Weez. I would like to hear Bone lyrics with a jungle beat (double speed tempo/rhythms, regular speed bassline). I've never heard ToneDeff before now.

I totally forgot about E40 too. I admire his creativity, and the beats, but I don't really like his flow. His Fat Burger franchise in Pleasant Hill went belly up too lolzers.









I don't expect to convert anyone with these weezy clips, I just want to put them out there. Guy is as good as anyone, ever. (Sorry Rakim, but you know it's true.)

I kinda wanted to post this in the Nice Interiors thread just to take it way off topic.

I dunno, you make good points, but there is just something I don't like about him. Might be the fact my co-workers worship him like he's the best thing since sliced bread and that's all they bring in to play on their mp3 players :lol: . I'm still trying to find music by Rakim. It's nearly impossible.

I can't defend autotune, but I think we all romanticize the music of our pasts. Almost everyone I know swears that the best musical period of all time just somehow, by chance, also happened to be the same years they were in high school/college. Huh. I'm guilty of it too.
+1. I'm a 90s kid in my case. I'm stuck there :lol:

The best music was clearly before that. '70s and '80s. There has been some entertaining music more recently than that, but most of it I would hardly classify as "good"

No argument there. Most of my most listened to rock bands are from those time periods. Most of today's music seems to be "good" for as long as the radio plays it. Once the radio stops playing it, you rarely hear of them afterwards.
