Hot Spitta!! Hopefully he drops music to fly to(if he still intends to title his album that) sometime this year. Or a beast mixtape. New Orleans stand up. 504 stand up. Currency is a rising star, and the Hornets will hopefully beat the mavs. 5.0.4 ya heard me.

He's aight. But I think homie should spit on some other beats to begin with b/c he can't top what Nas did on that same beat. That goes for any artist on the come-up, stop doing raps on legendary beats because you can't top what the original artist did.

No doubt I agree but it's gon make you look bad though. What's the point of doing a rhyme on a beat you know you can't top?? When you're on the come-up you want to kill everything you spit on, but that's not gonna happen on a Nas, Jay, Cube, Pac, BIG, etc... beat b/c and up and coming rapper can't top what they did. Ya feel me? You gotta start off slow on like a Jeezy beat or something then when you get your weight up and get known then maybe you can start spittin on legendary beats.

there are no rules or a formula on how to "spit on legendary beats" if homeboy wanted to rap over this beat, then he can...

just because some random internet nobody doesnt agree with what beats he rhymes over, doesnt mean its "wrong" or "bad"

music is all about opinion

^^Giving out constructive criticism isn't hurting nobody. Squad you sound like a soccer mom after her child got ejected out the game. Calm down nigga. It ain't that serious.

Anyway, I could of said this nigga is whack ass shit and he should kill himself for even contemplating to spit over a classic Nas beat but I didn't. All I said was he should start with some other beats (like some Jeezy or Jim Jones shit) because he can't hold his own against something like this. If you're not gonna top what any other man did what's the point of doing it??? You're just making you're self look bad. It's like NBA hopefuls trying to ball like Kobe.....IT AIN'T HAPPENING!! It could one day happen but for right now stay in your lane.

PS: If I'm a internet nobody what does that make you homie?? I ain't never even heard of you on Def Sounds before you replied to me.
