Exactly. I saw this thread title and thought, "there may be never have a been a thread topic I cared less about than that." (Aside from all the video game threads).

I, too, am a 90's hip hop guy myself. Still listen to it all the time, especially in the gym. TI? Yeahno.

What's an album or a CD? I only know 8-track...

An album is a collection of recorded songs, it can drop on any format.

And I'm a 90's Hiphop guy too, but I don't think it's fair to just write TI off because he doesn't sound like MF Doom. His sound is commercial, sure, but at his best he's a major league lyricist (although whatever u like is the worst song I've ever heard)

Hmmm, he's definitely not as bad as some of the cats on the radio now (like lil wayne's entire crew), but i wouldn't put him as major league even at his best. If we're talking crazy lyricists of the present, I'd give that title to cats like Celph-Titled, Esoteric, Immortal Tech, Murs, etc... I think they'd rhyme circles around TI (but this is just imo, of course).

Funny you mention Doom too... dudes got crazy lyrics and wordplay. But I liked his delivery a lot more when he was with KMD. He just sounds real monotone and off-beat nowadays.

Well Hip Hop is mainstream now, so of course it is gonna be more pop inspired. Even back in the day, they might have sounded more genuine. But it was always bout the paper.

Re: T.I. preparing to drop new album

Okay but there are still some good rappers. Snoop is still going strong, Jay-Z is of course blowing up the charts constantly and then.. There's Kanye. Who is widely hated, but you gotta give him credit, he sells records.

But I guess Snoop and Jay falls into the 90's rappers category. If we should be talking about anyone's CDs I think they deserve a thread more than T.I.

And not everyone is a Soulja Boy rapper. Cause damn, he stinks. and dude, remember the Stanky Legg? Phew, thank God that song was merely a flash in the pan.

Snoop has sucked for over half of my lifetime.. a bit before he went to No Limit

kanye is embarrassing to rap

T.I. is more credible than anyone there in the last 15 years other than Jay

Re: T.I. preparing to drop new album

Considering a recent thread asking why there aren't more open lanes at Walmart made it to its fourth page, I kind of think its anything goes at this point in the PL.
