Jamming, but there comes a time to grow up He's too old for this shit.

 

[DanielWilliamsJr]

Nigga ain't aged a day in 18 years tho..

 

[Mr. Met]

There's no fool like an old fool. 45 is too old to be passing along any jewels that aren't productive and beneficial to the next generation. Awax clearly hasn't progressed over time.

Tell that to Keith Richards.

 

[MadWun]

Tell that to Keith Richards.

Well true talk, but Keith Richards still sells out arenas.

has Eiht even sold a CD since the 90's? This man last had a hit when cassette tapes were still used.

 

[P03t]

the song is banging....

and its not a good look.....

 

[gameboy]

mixed emotions about this,,, i hate this new rule that anyone over 24 is too old to be in the music biz,,, dude still looks the same as he did 20 years ago,,, at the same time, you have to let your music grow with you,,, i don't think you should be rapping about the same shit you did at 19, as a 45 year old,,, if you haven't mentally grown since then, that's can be a problem (& make you look stupid)

 

[TEN]

do your thing eiht !

 

[Amajorfucup]

This brother has not aged, physically or artistically. Guess thats half good though.

 

[Mr.Busa]

Just playing Devil's advocate here...why does WC get a pass and not MC Eiht,theyre both in their 40s? I'm a fan of both btw,just wanted to ask because in that WC thread i dont think there was one negative comment in there.

[LeftyLuchini]

thats cuz he was an old lookin muthafucka 20 years ago.
his age has finally caught up to his looks.

 

[ljinsane]

thats bcuz WC came off on some MC shit,
some shit that you'll find in a rap cypher, which trumped 95% of what there young boys are spitting today.
that there is timeless fam.
pure lyricism has no age.

Oh,no doubt..Dub definitely ripped it...shit,i downloaded the mp3 to my phone!I'm just sayin,both these dudes are in their 40s,both been in the game at least 20 years,and neither one has changed their style up...still rappin that west coast hood shit,which is cool with me because i've always liked west coast rap.I think both these dudes have kept it 100 through their careers and they both should get a pass.

Good point. I thought he was 40 in Menace 2 Society.

 

[stlroddddd]

MC Eight is still doing his thang. QUAID is a Temecula, CA Harley-Davidson Co. I still bump that Eight.

 

[eliive]

How in D fuck did you even catch that?!?

that's EXACTLY what I was asking myself
