POLLO: Which dead rapper do you miss the most?

[highland145]

I voted for 2pac, because it's the only name I recognized.

You're skewing the highly scientific results.

 

[QueBert]

Wow, some of you wish death upon people who've done nothing to you. ATOT is nothing but class I tell you.

I'd say Big L or Buffy, glad someone already mentioned Buffy.

 

[Linflas]

Edgar A Poe.

"But the fact is I was napping, and so gently you came rapping,
And so faintly you came rapping, rapping at my chamber door,"

Big Lurch

Took PCP, tore open a woman's chest and ate her lungs. STREET CRED +1.

 

[SP33Demon]

Big Lurch

Took PCP, tore open a woman's chest and ate her lungs. STREET CRED +1.

Wow, that is street cred. When keeping it real goes wrong:

"The victim was found in her apartment by her friend Alisa Allen. Her chest had been torn open and a three-inch blade was found broken off in her shoulder blade. Tooth marks were found on her face and on her lungs, which had been torn from her chest. Eyewitnesses reported that when Singleton was picked up by police, he was naked, covered in blood, standing in the middle of the street and staring at the sky. A medical examination performed shortly after his capture found human flesh in his stomach which was not his own.[1]"

w.t.f.

 

[Anubis]

yea PCP fucks you up

 

[Tristicus]

I am racist.

 

[D1gger]

I'm a hater/racist/troll

Clearly the right answer ... quickly followed by:

None. The only GOOD rapper is a DEAD rapper...and I don't miss.

I'm a hater/racist/troll Either that, or I like real music. You be the judge ;^)

I'm not a big fan of gangsta rap (which is the overwhelming majority genre of dead rappers), but I would have to say Notorious. He was one of the rappers transitioning the form at the time, and it would have been interesting to see what he could have done in the past 13 years.

[anxi80]

Someone remind me next time to make a thread on rap or hip-hop if I ever want to draw out most of the trolls on AnandTech.

The only thing we are missing now is TFP making a comment about Lady Gaga.

POET LIIIIIIFE!!!

Ain't no one, dead or alive, that could match the flow of Poe. Fo sho.

You do have to respect the lyrical magnificence (lyrificence?) of Young Frost, though.

The man knew how to keep his hoes in check:

A Time To Talk (aka "B***h, Shut the F**k Up")

When a friend calls to me from the road
And slows his horse to a meaning walk,
I don't stand still and look around
On all the hills I haven't hoed,
And shout from where I am, What is it?

No, not as there is a time to talk.
I thrust my hoe in the mellow ground,
Blade-end up and five feet tall,
And plod: I go up to the stone wall
For a friendly visit

-Robert L. Frost, aka Young Frost, aka White N' Nassty.

 

[joesmoke]

Big L by a long shot. he had ridiculous amounts of talent and was killed right before he was about to get big.

 

[Kirby]

Big Lurch

Took PCP, tore open a woman's chest and ate her lungs. STREET CRED +1.

Big Lurch is still alive though.

 

[BrokenVisage]

Los Pollos Hermanos?

Edgar A Poe.
