who paints the illest picture

[The Bastard]

what rapper makes u feel like yur standin right next to him feelin whut hes goin thru just by the way he raps and whut he says. i gotta go wit cormega . the beats he spits over and the shit he says seems more like a movie than music.

 

[Loose Cannon]

I dont really know anybody who always does that for me, but some ghostface shit can get me feelin like that.

 

[berserk]

Rick the Ruler BIG, Big Pun or Big L, on a UK tip I can relate to Lowkey...

 

[DJ Hoppa]

Slug.

"Woke up, got up, near 11 o'clock, butt naked except, I was wearing my socks - that's cool cause most the time this floor gets cold, stand up and stretch, and look for my soul"

 

[Lex]

Cunninlynguists, Aesop, MF Doom..[I'm not saying I can relate to them, just that they conjure up some memorable and inventive imagery]

 

[Equelizer]

NAS......hands down. example: Pussy Killz off the GOD'S SON album, disc two. I felt like i was right there when he his boy started blasting. :shoot:

I gotta agree actually...I was just listening to Deep Puddle Dynamics - June26, 1998. Really down to earth stuff but sort of surreal.

Andre 3000's S*** on ATLiens and Aquemini always gets me. (The Art Of Storytellin is the best)

Blueprint's work always has me in deep (That Soul Position Album is full of nice imagery)

The same for me. Nas is one of the realist.

 

[Complexxx]

For me it would probably be DMX's earlier shit, Scarface, Nas, Biggie, Styles

 

[o-a-ksavage]

Devin the Dude

 

[Royal]

Nas, MF Doom, and Ghostface.

[M!nd_Ctrl]

I gotta go with 2Pac. It's too gangster, but he can make me feel that shit.

PHAROAHE MONCH,

if yall never heard the mayor track off the soundboming2 album you need to listen to it

sick,sick,sick

 

[djswivel]

NAS is definately it for me!! One Mic, DAAAAAAAMN!! That's songwriting at it's best right there!

 

[FuzE]

Thats easy. NAS. Whats the track where he comes home to find his girl upstairs cheatin on him. Then he calls his boy over for back up, then the shoot out with the cops. Finally, him and ol girl go out together as he slips an engagement ring on her finger. C'mon now thats bout as much drama as a Denzell movie. And NAS got several joints like that.

 

[Royal]

Ok, I narrowed it down. It has to be Nas, because of "Rewind", the one where he raps a whole story from end to begining. It was the first time I had heard a story told in vivid detail, BACKWARDS!!!
That shit blew my mind, I had never heard anyone do that before.

yeah that track is nuts...such a crazy concept, and nas really pulled it off...pity the beat wasnt too good...otherwise that shit woulda been a classic, no doubt...

 

[Ado]

I think Beenie Sigel on that Feel it in the air track. Even though he doesn't tell a specific location, He still puts you in another place.
