RIP PRODIGY

[Corpsey]

An inch shorter than Martin Amis

Us short men are compelled to become masters of language, just as Jordan Peterson counsels

 

[Corpsey]

He's got kind of a careless demeanour, despite being quite a sophisticated lyricist. Unlike Nas who always sounds quite intense. Think that made him better at sliding into that commercial lane.

And obviously an ear for a good beat/hook. "Hard Knock Life" was when I first really became aware of him.

 

[Corpsey]

Jay-Z is 6'2"

Nas is 5'8" (LIKE ME)

 

[Corpsey]

Eminem is 5'7"

There's definitely something going on here

Makes me wonder if jay-z ever really wrote a lyric in his life, the tall wanker

 

[Corpsey]

Kendrick 5'5"

Drake 6"

 

[Corpsey]

ghostface uses ghostwriters allegedly

like all tall frauds they need a short king to write their lyrics for them

I love Fat Joe, the way he talks

I was going to start a thread somewhere (luka probably already did it) of the best talkers, more by region than individuals

 

[Corpsey]

I was telling my colleagues last week when on the piss that if I see a really big man on the tube or whatever I will try and take a sly photo of them from behind

I'm talking a 6'6" beast man

They thought it was weird and creepy

And I took that personally

 

[Corpsey]

I always thought he basically lost it as a rapper due to his health problems over the years... Always had the voice of course

I think the hipper take is his solo stuff is better than the infamous or something

 

[Corpsey]

It's like @luka 's famous "it was written is better than illmatic" take

 

[luka]

Thats not my take! Thats the millenial consensus

I think the hipper take is his solo stuff is better than the infamous or something

H.N.I.C 's a great album, but I think anyone claiming he was better solo's just doing the contrarian hyperbole thing.

I always thought he basically lost it as a rapper due to his health problems over the years... Always had the voice of course

He does get worse, but he's also another like Wu-Tang where the production really drops off. The later stuff's full of these bland, unremarkable beats.

it is it is your take! it is! everybody point at him!
