^Then what's this?

OK so I exagerrated, he's made a few dope songs. So what? Some of the wackest rappers in the world have made good songs.

The trick is actually making a good album, and Canibus hasn't dont that since 2000 BC. People can say Rip the Jacker was good all they want but that album was garbage overall. Nothing but pseudo-intellectual rhymes over some spring time bullsh!t beats courtesy of "I haven't been a dope producer since Violent By Design" Stoupe

Now if you take a glass of water then add two cubes of ice
you should see the cup's water level slightly rise, right?
You need to watch what I'ma show you (Watch this)
You need to look closely at what I'ma show you
(Listen to this right here)
If you remove every living animal out of the sea
then wouldn't the world's ocean water level decrease?
This means the planet wasn't three-quarters water (that was deep)
This means the planet wasn't three-quarters water (that **** was deep)
It's *****nometry...

Canibus is a lyrical ANIMAL.

What do you Value more in Life.....Knowledge or Songs? I agree with your statement BTW, the most Solid Album CanIBus ever made was "2000 B.C".

I'm not sure I understand your question...but when it comes to music I value the ability to make a good song 1000000 times more than some guy dropping random knowledge about sh!t that doesn't pertain to everyday life over a beat sampling a salsa song

So the moron can string some sentences together. I used to be impressed by it, but he has no substance.

Pharoahe Monch is easily on par and better than 'Bis. Even without an album in six years.

Slug is better than Canibus all day.

Aesop Rock is better than Canibus' best albums.

Murs is doper than Canibus and talks about better stuff all the time.

Mr. Lif is smarter than Canibus, for you "knowledge"-seekers.

Rakaa Iriscience is better than Canibus. Not necessarily in straight lyrics, but he's got better presence, better ideas, more heart, and doesn't sound like a female dog, growling.

Kanye West is better than Canibus. Again, not in straight lyrics, but he has personality. He's funny.

Blueprint is better than Canibus. Blueprint is better than a lot of people.

Breezely Brewin' is better than damn near everybody.

Masta Ace is better than Canibus.

Ghostface is better than Canibus.

Talib Kweli isn't better than Canibus on a bad day, but on a good day would whip him proper.

Mos Def is better than Canibus.

Cage is better than Canibus. Hell's Winter is album of the year.

Gift of Gab is better than Canibus, and Gift of Gab is wack.

Jean Grae is better than Canibus. Jean Grae is slept on.

J-Zone is better than Canibus. J-Zone is a funny negga. J-Zone doesn't even consider himself an MC. Probably why he's so good at it.

MF DOOM is better than Canibus. Hands down, most quotable rapper on the scene today.

Camu Tao is better than Canibus. Not raw lyrics, but he's funnier and would punch the fool in the face, which should be old hat for Mr. Canibus Man.

Pumpkinhead is not better than Canibus. Another battlerapper that does not get it!

Louis Logic is better than Canibus. Louis Logic is getting shafted by the industry, dude is brilliant.

Freeway is better than Canibus. Not really, but his flow is hilarious. I'd listen to dude any day before The Canibus Man.

Charlie 2Na (2Na Fish) is not better than Canibus. Dude was only getting by on the voice and the Cut Chemist/Nu-Mark beats.

Percee P is better than Canibus. Of course.

Mr. Eon is not better than Canibus. By a long shot. But dude's funny as hell, I'll listen to him before Canibus.

Quasimodo is better than Canibus. And he doesn't even exist.

Thirstin Howl III is better than Canibus.

Slim Shady is better than Canibus.

Eminem is wack.

Cormega is better than Canibus all day.

M.O.P isn't better than Canibus, lyrically, but they do the most forceful, heartfelt, hate-hop known to man. M.O.P > Canibus.

GZA/Genius is better than Canibus. Duh.

Nas is better than Canibus.

Jay-Z is better than Canibus. And that is something I would NEVER have said in 2000.

Travis of Gym Class Heroes is better than Canibus. By a longshot. He actually talks about LIFE shhit.

Saul Williams is better than Canibus, if alls you want is clever lyrics.










Shhhhhiiiiit...I feel like going out and punching Germaine Willaims in the face, now.

Hi,

I am now listening to Mic Club, the most recent Canibus album that I purchased. I will concede that Gift of Gab is not better than Canibus. Neither is Cormega (most of the time, the mixtape was raw), or Talib Kweli. But I stand behind the rest.


DAMN, the dude fell off! Or more accurately, made the exact albums that we should have anticipated from the most prominant battlerapper of his era. Just endless babble and ranting about skills and big words.

My favorite song by Canibus "It's Logic," the freestyle over the "Freakin' U" beat with the chorus cut from "Affirmative Action" by Nas. Dude has raw talent, it just needs to be cultivated by a smart producer. Canibus doesn't need to be free, he needs to be in the structure of a GROUP.

You see, it's not the choruses that I think his music lacks...it's the whole package. Most of the stuff he talks is nonsense, which can be fine, but...dude is missing something serious.

Canibus needs help. I heard that Rip the Jacker was a good album, but I just couldn't bring myself to give him another chance.








I mean: C True Hollywood Stories pretty much invalidates Canibus' entire career and existence. The fact that I could still listen to his music after that attrocity--that hate crime against music--is proof of my willingness to forgive.

But to truely be forgiven, Canibus needs to step up the heat.

Ya should give it a chance...pretty dope album...and his new joint w/ Orion, Defcon Zero is dope too...

[Invalid]

I don't check for him anymore, and haven't since ''2000 BC''. But when I first heard him, like on ''Desperados'' or ''Buckingham Palace'' etc. I thought he was an amazing rapper. I think Big Pun was big at the time too.

I prefer Rass Kass though.
