Why is it cool to hate conscious and lyrical rappers on here?

    Depends what sort of hip-hop listener you are...a lot of his older albums are considered his best and most filler-free material but it is a lot harsher and less approachable.

    It was pretty clear man, had nothing to do with anything you said after this though...Guess I'll put my post here again.

    Lol you just keep on saying s--- that isn't true man. I used to be a big Tech fan and still don't mind him although I rarely listen to him anymore, but he's not the 'consensus top live rap act' lol...Maybe Tech posted some article on his facebook one time or something where someone said that, but doesn't make it true.


    no clue what you mean by this but okay.

    Exactly, when has it become acceptable to ignore one of the most important aspects of rap music?
    An album doesn't need to be super lyrical to be good (doggystyle, chronic,...) but if your s--- contain wack lyricism (yeezus), that s--- is just trash to me.

    I promise, Tech N9ne having a great live show is a lot more of an established idea than half the things said on this website. I didn't pull this out of my a---, I've gathered it over years of following him.
    You know exactly what I mean. You're condescending when it comes to musical opinions. Always have to be in the drivers seat. Opposing opinions are wrong until proven right lmao. And don't take that last line literally, you get my point

    Foh, I don't like his music but hes most definitely known to be one of the best live performers :nahgirl:

    For someone with his type of style, you'd think it'd be hard for him to sound like he does on his recordings. But honestly, he sounds the exact same, if not better

    Not to mention it's one of the most overproduced albums in music history

    Like the Kendrick thread yesterday where I said about 5 times 'i realize most disagree and that's fine, we have different opinions then', or the Pac thread yesterday where I said I realize plenty of people think he's overrated? Or the ICP thread I made last week where I said I realize everyone hates them? Yeah man you're right I always say 'opposing opinions are wrong until proven right' good point..Once again, no clue what you're talking about.

    Honestly can't think of one time I've said something like that as far as music opinions go.

    You're f---in weird bro, and that's coming from a juggalo. What does you hearing great reviews about Tech shows over the years have to do with him being the consensus top live rap act? Yeah Tech's fans and some others say he puts on a great live show, I've seen him live a bunch of times, it's a good show...He's not the consensus top live rap act though lol..

    Just because you respect opinions elsewhere on the forum doesn't exempt you from ever being condescending of other peoples opinions lol. You aren't as bad as the obvious trolls, and are a lot more subtle. There's that. But hey:hard:

    And no it isn't me hearing about great live shows. Someone else in this thread has already mentioned knowing that too lol....

    I really don't understand where these members come from, they're literally all one person with the way they think and s--- they say.

    I would undoubtedly vote for Carti in a poll over Cole.

    Most of those who think pac is overrated are the same guys saying Lil Wayne is top 3 dead or alive.

    Referring to me? How so?

    I said I consider Tech a legend and think he should be respected, regardless of his negatives and flaws

    Someone asks why, I give my reasoning

    What does that have to do with the thread? That is just personal preference, not hating.
