LUPE FIASCO THINKS IT IS UNWISE TO TRY AND GET JAY-Z TYPE FAME.
LUPE FIASCO, Chicago rapper,thinks it is unwise for any rapper to try and attain the type of fame and success that Brooklyn rapper, JAY-Z is constantly enjoying. I think i feel him on that one; it's better for any new artist to pave his own way, and try to do his own thing. The best way to get a head-way, and make it in the long run is to be unique and do your own thing.
Below is what Lupe had to say to other artist:
"Jay-Z's a personal friend of mine," Lupe said in an interview. "[He] executive-produced my first album. [My comments were] just an example using him of how people rate success. There's an idea of the status quo that every rapper wants to be Jay-Z. Nah. Every rapper does not want to be Jay-Z. Every rapper don't wanna be Kanye West. Everybody don't wanna be Lil Wayne. They wanna be who they are. ... You're a fool trying to chase that success down and manage it like that. I always look at my success as further than a dollar sign, further than record sales. ... Everybody thinks because you're black and you're from the 'hood, you wanna be Jay-Z. There's kids who wanna be astrophysicists and don't care about rap. That should be OK. You should be OK just being you, working your regular job and being happy. That's why I made that statement. I felt it need to be said." (MTV)

FABOLOUS WANTS NAS TO SHOW THE YOUNG RAPPERS THAT HE IS THE MAN.
I just read the heading off sohh.com were fab talks about wanting nas to show the younger generation of rappers that he(nas) is the man. I think i was really surprised to read that, cos i have always taking fab is a JAY-Z fan, and must jay fans area lways about flussing rap; you know, rapping about money and good life, and NAS is the opposite of that. So when i read the heading of the story, i was really inspired, that there was still hope for hiphop after all.
What i am trying to say wheni refer to the life of hiphop being in a better shape, by me, after i read this is because it is obvious that nas does not sell millions, and he does not have 4 maybachs or anything like that, so for FABOLOUS to give props to him, then it means people/rappers that appreciate raw talent.
Below is what fabolous had to say:
"Nas, Nas, like Nas is so ill," Fab told interviewer Karen Civil. "I think this younger generation of hip-hop really don't know, like, I got a dude who rolls with me, he's like 21, 22, he don't know any of the ill Nas, he don't know Illmatic, you just don't know that Nas that I grew up with. I wish Nas would just let these young boys know he's that dude."
Yeah, i am feeling fab on that one. With that said, i can't wait for the next NAS album.

RAP IS BACK IN THE EAST COAST.
I think in recent times that the east coast has taken, or to put it in better prospective, the east coast has predominantly the best rap albums coming out, and other than for LIL WAYNE'S movement, the southern rappers ain't selling like before.
I could remember back like 4 years ago, the south took over the dominance of the rap game from the east, and they ran with it. During that era, you had rappers like T.I blowing to full bloom, CHAMILIONAIRE, PAUL WALL, and a lot of bubble gum rappers i can't really remember their names. To show you how irrelevant their short lived music was, i can't even remember half their names.
I think the east is getting hold of the rap game right now, and it is looking good. When someone as noncommercial as JADAKISS can sell more copies than more than half the southern rappers out, then you know it is looking good. Then you have Jay-Z is still selling crazy numbers as we type. I think that is a good look at the rap game right now.
