I have to be honest, I think she's horrible most of the time. But she wasn't too bad on that one.

The thing that bothers me most about her is just how classless she is, when a guy curses and blatantly talks about six its just normal to me but when a woman does it. :shakehead: guess thats a bit of a double standard but I'm old fashioned when it comes to that topic.

I hated her for her "we give a lot of money to the babies out in Haiti" lyrics, in Bottoms Up.

been on a Tupac binge recently. I think Hit Em Up might be one of my new favourite songs.

so much hatred :flame: love it

anyone know of any other good diss tracks?


Do you mean diss tracks in general? Or diss tracks by 2-Pac?

General good ones:

Piggy Bank - 50 Cent
Wanksta - 50 Cent
Mean Mug - Soulja Boy & 50 Cent
On Fire - Eminem
Mosh - Eminem
The Way I Am - Eminem
The Real Slim Shady -Eminem
Without Me - Eminem
Get Back - Ludacris
We Be Steady Mobbin' - Lil Wayne
Vato - Snoop Dogg

Edit: Pretty much half of Eminems stuff. :P

I don't know too many diss songs by 2-Pac, so I won't mention em. But I know a couple of his good ones:

Ambitionz az a Ridah
The Realist Killaz
Ghetto Gospel
Changes
Soldier Like Me
California Love
Me Against the World



Watch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O7W0DMAx8FY&ob=av2n It samples most of his new stuff. The uncensored version is better though.


Thanks, Im watching it right now. :)

Eminem used to be so much better, imo. I still listen to the Slim Shady EP. Can't bring myself to listen to any of his new songs, though. :/

Yes, very few of the songs from Recovery and Relapse were good, IMO. I think a lot of his old fans were disappointed, and a bunch of people that weren't previously his fans became them. My own cousin for example, she probably didn't even know Eminem existed until Recovery when she heard Love the Way You Lie. It's not bad, but it's definitely not his best. He's being recognized for that stuff now, not the old stuff. The good stuff back in the 8 Mile days. He was great up until Encore.

Sage Francis ~ "The Best of Times"

Such a chill song that I'm sure almost everyone here can relate to.

I've been listening to a lot of Def Jam Poetry recently, too. Not sure if it fits in perfectly into this thread, but check out "Flashy Words" by Shihan. Also "Dating Myself" and "Money" by Poetri.

A ton of people jumped on his bandwagon after hearing Love the Way You Lie. I've been an Em fan forever and Cinderella Man is one of my favorite songs of all time.

Eminem is also one of my favorites. Infact, he's the artist with the most songs in my iTunes library. :P

My favorite song of his still has to be the first I ever heard; Lose Yourself. That song is immortal to me.

http://www.vibe.com/posts/winner-selected-greatest-hip-hop-song-vibe-era-tournament win the greatest rap song of the Vibe era with Crossroads. Im glad to see they get recognition even if it is still for that song. I think they are whole underrated and deserve better than they've gotten. http://vibe.com/hiphopsong#p=homepage

Oh yeah, for all you Em fans, they beat out both Loose Yourself and Stan as well as Lil' Waynes A Milli :P

Agree 100%
Lose Yourself has been in my iPod (and previously mp3 player) since it came out. One of the best songs ever.
Till I Collapse is also amazing.

In a good way? Or in a bad way?

Yes, Till I Collapse is great too. Although I like the remix better. The remix with 50 Cent and 2-Pac in it.

Eminems Mosh, Hailies Song, Go To Sleep, and Mockingbird are pretty awesome as well.

I just got it, and am listening to it now.

:touched: So bomb, man. If you even have a passing interest in his music, you need to get this CD. So far, it's honestly, one of my (many :P) favorite hip-hop CD's of all time.

Cudi new album is so disappointing, I really regret buying it.Its just so emotionless and it really feels like he smoked too much while making it.He has a monotone voice that just drags on in most songs.In a decent amount of songs it feels like he forgot to sing or rap.Speaking of rap this basically is has none in it, not that its a problem but I am just saying.I got the deluxe edition and there are 17 songs and I have heard 15 so far.Only ones I like are Erase me Ghost and Trapped in my mind.None of which equal songs like Up Up and Away, Pursuit of Happiness, or Soundtrack to my life, which were my 3 favorite songs from that album.Wild n' Cuz I'm young has a better version with Kanye in it as well.

Edit:Mr Rager and Maniac are ok but nothing special.

Edit:Listened to the whole thing.....why Cudi why?

Nicki Manaj Your Love

Add Lil Waynes Piano Man, and you've got yourself probably the worst rap quartet on Earth. :P

As a challenge to myself I might see how long I can withstand listening to all of them in a row.. :whistling:

Yeah, his first album was better. Other than Erase Me, Scott Mescudi vs the World and REVOFEV the album is a disappointment.

Really? Am I the only person who liked this CD more then his last one? Don't get me wrong, his last CD was great too, but I just like this one more for some reason. :shrug:
