"that whole hip hop is dead thing kinda backfired on nas" - lil boosie in the new xxl

[Brad Piff 6.0]

--with 50 on the cover

i gotta c/s that statement
because hip hop is dead flopped

the south stays sonnin nas

he also says dont expect to diss the south without consequences
and that todays fans can relate to jay-z better than nas because jay "understands" and is down with the south and thats why jay is still able to go plat

i gotta c/s those statements also
props to lil boosie

[the encyder]

The South is garbage

[MNFBackwordz]

[Sunzoo aka LC]

this coon...**** little sambo....and if getting all of the 90's legends together on a track, sparking KRS to do hip hop is alive and introducing crissette michelle to us is backfiring i hope every album i put out backfires...and has boosie gone plat yet? you know nas went plat with every cd he's come out with, even the ****ty ones and this will go play eventualy...and little sambo will still be a flava flav look alike who cant rap for ****

[Don Mack]

[kingofduval904]

lil boosie is by far the wackest rapper i have ever heard in my life .. he has no grounds to speak on any artist.. let alone jay-z and nas

[Swagger]

nas lost

[keon]

how did it backfire? cuz hiphop IS dead. he was just tellin the truth. now as far as nas record selling, sh!t, nas albums hasn't been selling since stillmatic so that wasn't a shock either.

[kb2602]

lol @ lil boosie, nas album still outsold his wack sh*t!!
hip hop is dead>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>boosie's high top fade existence

[BayouSlim]

Yall gotta look past Boosie music, Im not a huge fan of Boosie either, but those statements ring true. Especially the one about Jay-Z

[PurePiffery]

lmao @ nas getting sonned by boosie bad azz

[thoughtcriminology]

Whatever he doing must be backfiring too cause I don't know who the hell this guy is and I doubt Nas does either.

[Bill O' Reilly]

Terrible........

[BayouSlim]

lol @ lil boosie, nas album still outsold his wack sh*t!!
hip hop is dead>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>boosie's high top fade existence



Yeah u smart dumb cat Nas did sell more than Boosie. But Boosie is on a independent on top of the fact that he owns 85% of his publishing, so Im sure Boosie saw way more money than Nas did. Sh1t Jay-Z probably ate more off of HHID than Nas did himself off his own wack ass album

[queens_rex]

Nas Need To Get On A Track Wit A Big Southern Artist Again Like Scarface To Shut These Lame Azz Garbage Dudes Up..

[Gentility]

this coon...**** little sambo....and if getting all of the 90's legends together on a track, sparking KRS to do hip hop is alive and introducing crissette michelle to us is backfiring i hope every album i put out backfires...and has boosie gone plat yet? you know nas went plat with every cd he's come out with, even the ****ty ones and this will go play eventualy...and little sambo will still be a flava flav look alike who cant rap for ****this brave gentleman has said all there is to say.

No he doesnt Scarface outshined him on that track. Plus that song was wack anyway, typical Nas song-- wack beat, wack hook that didnt fit the song, and off beat lyrics

[Kingofkings]

If nas didnt make the statement (which he ofcourse did to make hiphop headlines and sell records, just a pulicity stunt).
Not a single person would be saying that hip hop was dead, but nas is such a big character in hiphop, with so many stans so people automatically says that hip hop is dead.

[canneverbeme]

threadstarter is lying...

[bearclaw]

traveling to 1993 to find a barborshop backfired on boosie

are you stupid?? that ***** ain't seeing Nas money. Nas alse executive produces his ****. thats a whole different check homey.

You dudes have just bought into everything these lil artists tell you. Independents don't cake like that...if they did, everyonewould be independent

You really think Nas came up with that line? People been saying Hip Hop was dead then again I'm a Nas stan. SMH

Whompp whomppp another southern bamma i must correct again. Lets do a little something i called mathmatics. Nas just signed a 10mill dollar deal with def jam, for 2 Offical albums and a Lost tapes 2. So mathmatically nas makes about 3.3 million dollars per album, and to remind u lost tapes 2 is just gonna be srcaps from his last two albums. bossie sold about 200,000 records, for boosie to make 3.3 per album he would have to make about 15$ per record, we all know thats imposssible. And jay doesnt get 1 cent of anyones record sells. he gets paid a set salary, and if he sells a certain amount he gets a bonus.

[bearclaw]

You really think Nas came up with that line? Been been saying Hip Hop was dead then again I'm a Nas stan. SMH


ya people been sayin hiphop was dead at least for the past 5 years

[MC Riot]

You lyin like Mumra.

[SneakerT]

Why is he obessing over that album title still? Cues up loud speaker.........Attention Southerners: Nas was not talking about you are taking shots at you. Stop being so damn parinoid over an album title. Get over it and yourselves. To all those who keep saying Nas said Hip Hop is dead as a publicity stunt. Where have you been? People been saying that for the past few years of Hip Hop. All he did was make the statement everybody's been thinking. Why does it bother you so bad? All this proves is that he did something right, if you're still up in arms about it. Let it go already.

Cues down loud speaker and exits thread..........

[Bogey_J]

southerners just don't seem to understand...

that's exactly why hip hop is dead

they think hip hop = record sales

[Rzarector7]

Who the fukk is Lil Boosie??? How much did his lp sell if Nas flopped :laugh: All this Nas flopped talks, still sold more than alot of heads out there.

[kicktwo9]

i gotta cosign my n1gga boosie

lets be serious how long will they be eating 4???? smh

Nicca if you read the whole thread is was one of your up top kinfolk who bought record sales into this debate

[BayouSlim]

You lyin like Mumra.
Naw the song was wack, the only bright spot was when Scarface was rapping. The only reason I remember that song was cuz my boy was just playing that God Son on the PS3 the other day.

homie...get real, nas doesnt have to brag about it but the ***** signed the def jam deal for 10 million...you really think that broke ass ***** is seeing that kind of money? did he make his daught executive producer of one of his albums so she could eat FOREVER off of it? just stop talking

If nas didnt make the statement (which he ofcourse did to make hiphop headlines and sell records, just a pulicity stunt).
Not a single person would be saying that hip hop was dead, but nas is such a big character in hiphop, with so many stans so people automatically says that hip hop is dead.

people been saying hip hop is dead way before nas said it, and it wasnt a publicity stunt it was a statement and basically an open ended question to US wether we think we need to change to keep this **** alive...nas has never needed publicity to sell platinum cds so why start now? *****s been talking that hip hop is dead **** SINCE THE PUFFY/SHINY SUIT ERA but you kids dont know **** anyway so i wouldnt expect you to know that HHID wasnt an origonal idea or statement

[Kingofkings]

Im not saying that he came up with it, but he promoted it with his whole budget

[Adamba4e]

Boosie dont sell like Nas, cuz Boosie doesnt have an army of fans like Nas does. If Boosie sold half of what Nas did it would dwarf Nas's numbers. But I could care less about Boosie or Nas. Really dont care for either on of them. Boosie isnt seeing Webbie, and I never liked Nas, he makes sleepy time music. If I want to learn something or expand my mind I'll open a book rather than listen to his tired ass over another wack ass beat


Nas still lost and always will

[Sunzoo aka LC]

lmao...poison > weebies existance....webbie...*****s actually listen to a ***** named webbie, these cats are ****ing up the legacies of real southern rappers like scarface and devin...they are playing into the steryotypes of everybody from the south being coons and unintelligent...i know the south has more talent but they aint the ones that get on TV

[BayouSlim]

How did you get Boosie is the GOAT from all of that, all I was saying was that his statements were right. Never said Boosie was a good artist, I personally dont fuc with dude. But what he said in the XXL was right and it rings true. Your just playing into the over zealous up north hater sterotype.

Bieng a hater = being broke

[6FiggieNiggie]

Boosie is certified trash

[The Catalyst]

I can't tell you how much I wish people who obsess over record sales would be banned from listening to music ever again. WTF has record sales EVER had to do with the quality of an artist's MUSIC? 50 is better than Rakim, Vanilla Ice is better than Nas, Nelly is better than Pharaoh, etc. according to record sales. Don't you idiots ever get that? I was talking to this girl at work (who only likes "catchy" hiphop) about hiphop and all she was into was the crap they play on the radio. These types of people make up most of the people who buy high selling hiphop albums. These are the people you're putting so much stock in?

[BayouSlim]

Since I dont like Nas, then I must not be black???
NEGRO PLEASE!!!! Nas has the most overrated catalouge of albums in the history of music, in any genre, not just rap. I think yall lames just find it cool to lke him and be Nas stans. But real talk, Nas would be better if his beats werent so damn sorry, its almost like he try on purpose to make his beats suck

The thread started mentioned sells. " Nas flopped" is in his post. How is being certified plat. a flop is beyond me, but he said it. And how the **** did it backfire on nas when you can see hip hop dying in front of our eyes, just look at the quality of the music, and also the soundscan.. Its deadddd

A. It wasn't on God's Son, stupid.

B. Why doesn't your wack ass bamma friend have a stereo? Did he spend all his cake on that PS3?

C. Why does he have a PS3 in the first place? He should have saved some time and money and just bought a Sega Saturn or a Dreamcast.
