@NBA__Courtside He deserves a statue in LA for earning one of these???

Danny Green says the Lakers will be disrespecting LeBron James if they don’t give him a statue in LA: “He gonna get a statue in Miami, Cleveland. If he don’t get one y’all are fu*king bugging. Any team he’s played for, if you don’t give that man a statue, did he play for the Lakers? So then, yes. Every team he’s played for if you don’t give him a statue you are fu*king bugging.” (Via @NFGShow)

@escoemartinez @self_B_tru @LadePlatinum So many artists have fallen off of a cliff trying to appeal to younger audiences instead of being themselves and staying true to their original fans.

@self_B_tru @LadePlatinum Either way you slice it those songs would have put him on to a whole new generation of fans. Sometimes you gotta put the ego to the side and crank out some hits. He could have had a bunch of stuff not by Pharrell and just mixed them in with those hits

@TonyDaDome No.

Does Life After Death have a legit claim as the Greatest Rap Album? 💿 #Biggie #LifeAfterDeath

@polo_man404 He was going to be next up.

Thirty minutes before The D.O.C. lost his voice, the police let him go. He had been pulled over drunk in Beverly Hills. The officers saw NWA's gold records in his backseat, took pictures with him and sent him home. Half an hour later he fell asleep at the wheel on the Ventura Freeway, crashed face-first into a tree and was thrown through his rear window. He spent 21 hours in surgery. When he woke up, he couldn't speak. His debut album No One Can Do It Better had just sold over a million copies. He was 21 years old. Dr. Dre came to the hospital and told him the hard truth. "Don't rap." So instead he wrote. He ghost-wrote Straight Outta Compton, Eazy-Duz-It, The Chronic, Nuthin But a G Thang. He convinced Dr. Dre to go solo when Dre himself didn't believe in it. He co-founded Death Row Records. He mentored Snoop Dogg on songwriting when Snoop only knew how to freestyle. The biggest albums in West Coast hip hop history have his fingerprints all over them. His name is on almost none of them. He said it himself years later. "Had I kept my voice, I might not be here today." --- 📌 Sources: Rolling Stone · Complex · Wikipedia · Ambrosia for Heads · Vice

@Mcmuphin2121 @BounceRoccSkate Just posted a similar comment. The notion that there were no emcees with advanced rhymes in the early 80s is false.

@BounceRoccSkate Kool Moe Dee battling Busy Bee really opened people’s eyes up to a different form of rapping as well, in terms of performing/battling anyway..

IMO Rakim is the #1 most important rapper in the history of hip hop. He literally changed the way everyone rapped. Before Paid in Full everyone was still doing those loud party raps where they sounded like they were shouting at the crowd. Rakim changed the game forever.

@BounceRoccSkate @MXKEstunner Listen to early Kool Moe Dee rhymes when he was with The Treacherous Three. There were emcees in the early 80s with advanced rhymes.

@MXKEstunner That’s when actual flow and complex rhyme schemes were born. Rapping existed before that but it was much more basic, and Rakim changed that forever. The other elements of hip hop (DJing, break dancing, and graffiti) were born in the 70s.

@dpshow @Nutrafol Bootlicking Reggie didn't answer any of Dan's questions.

Would you rather have Draymond Green's career, or Carmelo Anthony's? Reggie Miller gives his thoughts. (@Nutrafol #PARTNER)

@keithedwards Whatever. That was quite impressive.

he didn't do a single pull up

@Wedgemoney @lowkflex That's the only thing he could have done to avoid the situation. Now if ole boy still veered towards them, then he just wanted to start trouble.

@lowkflex You have to peep game way before you walk past a group of people. Should have been pulled your lady close.

He a hoe for letting a nigga split them in the first place, niggas better move around

@AfricanArchives B.A.N.

FBI informant William O'Neal, infiltrated the Black Panthers and set up Fred Hampton for $300.

@GreatMichael_G @TemooTitan Realizing that this ain't gonna work.

@TemooTitan Why was he nodding like that though 😭

Look at Klay 😭😭😭 how she aint know

@TheyHateDirt @MooreForAll @ChickenColeman And dessert.

Dinner as a single man like $20 you add a woman its now $100

Where did Jack Harlow even find such a hat???

@Mechracer74 @TrillaryBlinton That's doesn't mean that you won't be profiled. Unless you think that's a learning experience as well.

@HipHopVocals @TrillaryBlinton Last I checked, Puerto Rico is a territory of the USA and I was born in NYC. That makes me as American as… you!

Her name is Michelle Bishop. She’s a home wrecking, scamming, racist, nutcase according to Reddit. Her and her husband John have threads on Reddit dating back 6 years ago

@Mechracer74 @TrillaryBlinton We'll see how you feel when ICE tries to deport you in the coming weeks.

@TrillaryBlinton I am a member of a country club and get mistaken for being the “help” all the time (I am Latino). I don’t let it bother me. People will be people.

@Raindropsmedia1 Not the Karen tears. Lmao. You can't make this shit up.

Following significant backlash and harm to her online business, a woman accused of racially profiling a real estate developer at his residence has come forward, expressing her emotions and asserting that she is not racist. She revealed that she has apologized to her neighbors on two occasions following what she describes as a major "misunderstanding." “I never thought it was a black man I thought it was a white man in that truck”

@365OTG This and 'Strictly for my..' was pure Tupac, before his thug life turn.

i thought this album was...

@EnterDaDome Nobody. Real emcees don't need a lot of features.

AZ was the only feature on Illmatic but who else should have been on there in your opinion?💿👊🏽🎹

@DonDarkass @honest_n_true @ArtOfDialogue_ Those artists aren't necessarily old school artists. Pre NWA, emcees rarely used profanity in their songs.

@honest_n_true @ArtOfDialogue_ NWA, Snoop, Biggie, Onyx, 2 Live Crew, The Dogg Pound, etc… Murder, violence, and misogyny has always been apart of hip hop.

Actor Malcolm Jamal Warner says Hip-Hop has become anti Black and that the messages in Hip Hop that get exposure are misogyny, murder, mayhem, and disrespect of fellow Black people. (🎥 Peachtree TV/Youtube)

@ArtOfDialogue_ Heard no lies.
