thank you.
Fuck it. im sayin it. Ross the best in the game right now......(NEW SHIT!!)
- Thread starter Otis Supreme
- Start date
thank you.
Yeah, but that was less than a year ago. The CO shit been known way before that.
To the OP, dont trip homie, I fucks with Ross. His music just seems more mature to me man, and he got to be one of the best beat selecting rappers in the game... 
LIL B>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>ross
Yea he puts Jeezy on his albums. Rick Ross has never been on a Jay-Z album.
Fuck is a Lil B? You talking about that nigga that admitted he was a princess and wears button up wife beaters? You talkin' about that nigga?
I don't think Rawse would ever get on a tour with Jay. Rawse isn't really a mainstream rapper. Def Jam doesn't even market him as one. Jeezy got platinum plaques. Probably the biggest rapper in the game not named TI, Em, Jay or Wayne. The Jeezy move made sense for when Jay comes to the West or the South. I went to that concert when it was down here and Jay sort of uses Jeezy as a intermission. He raps before him and let's Jeezy rock the stage then ends the show.
the fag whos track i ate
Lil B is terrible. I didn't even realize that was his name. Lil B. That's exactly what I think about him. A Lil B. Niggas like him is why people think the Bay is garbage.
Ross, Jeezy, & Luda are the franchise right now @ DJ. He gets a push, but he's not crossing over with the fans. The shit with 50 hurt him, because it took away from the quality music he had on the album. I went to the concert in Austin & Jay rocked the whole set, I like how he had a break with Jeezy in Dallas too...that was different. TI was going to be that guy with Jay as well, but he fucked that up with the charges.
but anyways......
production wise...Ross actually got a lot of mellow ass tracks.
Grown man sounding shit.
considering the fact that im a mellow dude..i fucks with Ross.
You mean franchise rappers right? Because Def Jam still got the artists they really give that push to like Ne-Yo, Rihanna and Kanye. As far as Rawse goes I don't think he really gets that much of a push. Its really not worth to push him because like you said he's not crossing over with fans. He has the hip hop audience. The rap fans. He got the streets. He needs to get that white kid in suburbia who worships rap music. That's what sets Jeezy from Rawse. Jeezy has that type of fan.
Def Jam gotta get some new talent in there. They let all these labels snag up niggas like Cudi, Drake and Wale. Def Jam should've been in on both of niggas. I'm shocked LA didn't make a move for Drake. I don't think he has faith in the hip hop department at Def Jam.

Shake was his go-to guy...its easy to see what many were saying long ago that he's tryna turn DJ into a R&B label, the new LaFace
co-sign... the cats who don't like ross is in the J. COle thread talking about how he better than drake
Man that shit is just comedy to me, sort of like Gucci
you've gotta be kidding me. what do you consider a mainstream rapper then? give me some examples. a rapper becomes mainstream as soon as they strike gold with a hit. it's not how they market you, it's whether or not you can drop a smash single, rawse just hasn't had one YET
it's coming though... 2010 should be his year
Opinions are like assholes... Everyone has one... and most of them STINK!!!!....
Being mainstream isn't about record sales IMO. Mainstream rapper to me is a guy who gets play on Pop radio. There's nothing wrong with not being a mainstream rapper. I just don't think Def Jam markets him to be such. He's a hood rapper. Raps about hood shit. Shit doesn't translate to the mainstream. He doesn't have catchy ass hooks. He doesn't have dance songs. Jill Scott goes gold with every album but that doesn't mean she's a mainstream singer.
Same here. I crack up laughing when I see Rawse in character.
I Always thought that was the intent. To laugh at the nigga. I never once bought into that shit. But its entertaining.Similar threads
