I think he meant diverse in their musical styles.

>>69819083
their musical abilities were variations on a theme at best, hardly 'diverse'

Only by the faddish, conformist, standards of hip hop where everyone tries to be whoever is popular that month can they be considered in any way diverse

>>69819122

Lol I literally can't think of two MC as different as ODB and Deck in terms of style and flow

>>69819297
Flavor Flav and Chuck D

>>69819070
Denzel Curry is the only good one here

fucking kek

>>69819070

I'm only familiar with half of these guys. Do any of them have any technical rapping ability or are they all memers and mumbly / autotune hood shit?

>>69820089
Denzel Curry and lil Dicky (even though he is le funny rap man) for technical

Kodak, 21 Savage, Lil Yachty I have all found to be that vibe party rap (only good for their singles)

Anderson Paak is like garbage in the XXL but his album Malibu is good if you want someone that can actually play an instrument and sing its Anderson

everyone else i couldn't get into

>>69819070

Who did Lil Dicky's PR man blow to get him on this cover?

>>69820149
Nah Kodak's the best rapper today. Rather, the one with most potential

>>69820483
yee yee I agree actually I was going to say I think Kodaks different for some reason I keep coming back to him

Hopefully he doesnt just fuck off when he makes bank

>>69819415
Which era was this? I never knew he worked with black men or women, his music is usually very white (I do love a lot of it though)

>>69819050

is that a football team?

>>69820549
Because he actually RAPS pretty great. He seems to have an understanding of rhythm getting in the so-called "pocket".

'It's Kodak the finesse kid walkin like a lick hittin licks now I'm droppin hits mouthpiece cost a brick, in the club'

'My nigga slayed a nigga, I just came from hanging with him'

'Your brother just told me you hopped on a plea for three'

>>69820689
Just bought new old jag yeah it so fast, Smokin' flocka, you a jackass, all I smoke is gas

yeah I feel you I literally bought a Jaguar S type because of that song lmfao

>>69821162
.......the fuck?

what kind of casual richness is this?

>>69821205
Super crazy deal dude, I saw a Jaguar S type on craigslist for 1800 (CHEAP AS FUCK) and I obviously thought something would be wrong with it but like the dude was literally just this old man who wanted to get rid of this car he never drove, so far no problemos

I lucked out hard

>>69820593
This was the 1974/75 era.

Try harder.

>>69822456
not even joking. He was a well known racist, probably linked to his childhood where he was beaten half to death by a group of black youths for being awkward/different

That's more like it.

>>69822546
i dont understand what you're trying to get at. Just google, these are well known things in the music industry. Dweezil had an AMA where he admitted it
