The person doesn't have to be a rapper. Could be the owner of a label , DJ, Producer, etc. and Why? I'm trying to get some decent feedback. Not answers like "Because I don't like 'em"

Russel Simmon's Because everybody ...or alotta of people say hip hop wouldn't be what it was today witout him... i say fuck em it coulda did witout corny ass def jam i'm just about positive he mighta had a coupla artist who made it big but i dont think they were ever all that musicly and hell who know's tha west mighta been bigger today...

OR Suge Knight's Fat ass...

based on tha simple fact Pac would probly be here today although that's a MAYBE, i cant speak 100% positive on that 1 but i have a dam good feeling. But maybe Suge was a big ass part in pac's success who knows there's still many circumstances that no one know's fa sure. But i think pac woulda held his own and came up reguardless. You jus gotta realize there's alotta lil shit that happen's that trigger's all kinda other reactions that coulda influenced certain shit to happen with pac. you never know

OR Lil John jus to see what tha radio & club scene would be like witout em today i probly hear like 30% of shit that gets airplay is either produced by him or sum shit that sounds like sumthin he produced that he influenced and tha whole crunk shit... tho Triple 6 Mafia STARTED that style from my knowledge at least, tho there were other south cats b4 em doin it but aahhhh fuck it whatever.

Yeah it would be interesting to see how the "Cause and effect " would play out on certain peoples careers with key figures missing. This is a tough one I'm still thinking.

IM gonna say 2Pac. If Pac was never around there would be no Ja Rule, no 50 Cent, no Eminem, no G-Unit, No east coast/west coast rivalry. There would be way less corny white boys listening to hip hop. Hip Hop wouldnt of become the minstrel show it is today. It wouldnt be fashionable to be shot or do time in order to sell records. BET would still be watchable. Master P would still be tight. The south would still be putting out quality music and LA would still have a decent rap scene...

not seriously, just for an experiment

Kool Herc

See if things would have developed at all. Who knows what we'd be listening to now. It would be interesting to see.

i beg to differ cuz niggaz... fake niggaz... or stupid ass people in general would still be praisin his bitch ass cuz he took sum bullets and still walkin any way i think u givin pac's absence a lil too much; based on tha fact credit corny white boys been bumpin hip hop since wutang and b4 that shit... i always try to understand b4 i disagree but in this case i think i'm gon say U TRIPPIN...

and what that got to do wit master be goin wack he did that shit on his on man. tho 50 did bite tha shit outta pac and eminem. and pac influenced masses.. but still i dont think all what you sed is completely accurate especially on tha whiteboy issue, corny whiteboys still woulda been on tha hip hop shit.


and if HIP HOP coulda did without anybody i woulda sed Biggie as far as gettin ridda East/West beef pac was very important but it was niggaz around already doin what biggie was doin he wasn't shit new to me, i think homie was mediocre as fuck wit hella charisma.

like a fatter less poetic watered down east cost version of pac...

jus My Opinion

Jerry Heller!

I think Eazy-E would have been a better buisness man without the Devil sitting on his shoulder. And I literally mean DEVIL. I think N.W.A would still be together running the WestCoast empire. I think they would have ALLl grown to be a powerful force in the industry. You take Jerry Heller out of the equasion. The rap scene would be much different than what it is now. Talk about "Cause and Effect".

i would say Jay-Z simply for the fact that he bit so many rappers rhymes (theres a whole thread about this somewhere here on the Siccness) and then decides to remake a 2pac song, Bonnie and Clyde, saying he was cool with 2Pac, even tho he wasn't.

50 Cent because he is ruining the rap game like Deceptakhan said. Before he was dissing Ja Rule for going soft and rapping with ladies then he is doing the exact same thing Ja was doing. He claims he is a "gangsta" when in reality the guy who shot him is actually the gangsta. He is greedy in his money..thats all he cares about.

The Game because he fucked JT over and stole his Black Wall Street name but now JT's making money off him so thats cool. He fucked Yukmouth over with the whole diss thing then he claims to be a blood and crip and he has G-Unot shaved on his head

I would have to say Pac. Just cuz if he wasnt here we still wouldnt miss him and we wouldnt always be talking bout the rap game would be better if Pac was alive. And Last but not least we wouldnt have had to shed tears over that cat getting killed over bullshit

Puffy he single handedly put an end to the gangsta rap era, the moment that Mo Money Mo Problems video hit MTV. Next thing I know Im seein niggaz like Cube,Snoop, and Mack 10 wit choreographed dancin in their videos.
