rappers that sound like shit live..

[KG The One]

I don't think most people understand that rappers for the most part is out of shape ass muthafuckas who smoke weed and drink all day... It's a lot easier going in the booth and recording your song in sections then it is to keep your wind through an entire song let alone an hour set while trying to not just stand there stationary on stage... I actually see this problem with singers even more! Cierra sucks live, she can only manage to hit her dubs cuz of all the fuckin dancing she trys to do at the same time..

 

[KCHustla]

Ya'll need to go to a tech n9ne show even if you don't like his music. Best performance I have seen. And if you worry that you might kill a faggot juggalo at the concert then watch one if the dvds he has out. Other than that I haven't seen any hip hop performers who are actually good on stage. I don't like jay-z I want to see him live. Heard he was dope and eminem. Styx was awesome live though lol.

All the local cats I like I wouldn't go to their shows because people act stupid as fuck.

 

[Grapes Of Wrath]

I honestly haven't been to a hip hop show in years for the mere fact that you could die at a show, lol.

LOL IF YOU SCARED SAY YOU SCARED, CUZZ

 

[MOREBASS]

I'm trippin, how did I forget to mention Eminem. Probably the best live rap show, I've seen personally.

 

[KG The One]

Spice 1 has a dope live show too..

yeah ive always wanted to go to one. last time he was in town he was at house of blues though!! steppin his shit up

but techn9ne is an example of a dude who puts effort into his shows...like plans shit out before hitting a stage or going on tour right? does he ever travel with a live band?

 

[D-Rose]

I take it back. I saw 4/5 of the Mob and Pretty Black and others in Berkeley a long time ago and no shots were fired.

Hus puts on a good show, he has hella energy on stage. Jacka was ok. Rydah and Fed-X spent most of the time smoking fat blunts toward the back of the stage, lol.

krs 1

whos that? must be a typo. you mean kero 1 of course:

 

[90'sBayPlayer]

KRS ONE was hella dope in downtown SJ

 

[KG The One]

I went to a KRS 1 show once just to slang CD's cuz i'm really not a fan and dude signed a bunch of tennis balls and was throwing em in the crowd...So i picked one up and threw it back...cool story breh

 

[MOREBASS]

Well now I'm curious as to how someone signs a tennis ball. Didn't think the texture of the ball would allow it to be autographed well.

 

[KG The One]

Well thats what he did...said that he didn't have time to do autographs after the show so he just takes out a big ass trash bag of tennis balls he signed and threw em in the crowd.. You probably right tho i didn't actually look at the signature

 

[Fucky McFuckerson]

rock shows >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> rap shows

 

[carl winslow]

Well now I'm curious as to how someone signs a tennis ball. Didn't think the texture of the ball would allow it to be autographed well.

if you just have to write k r s 1, im sure thatll be easy to do with a sharpy. my question is does he do it in cursive like most signatures or print? if the latter it'd be easy to forge a krs1 signed tennis ball and sell on ebay for 32cents

 

[Grapes Of Wrath]

Well now I'm curious as to how someone signs a tennis ball. Didn't think the texture of the ball would allow it to be autographed well.

also, i got one of those tennis balls he threw out at The Night Hip Hop Stole Christmas, at that casino in compton. in the basement..
a brackin ass show.

and he tagged the tennis balls with his classic tag.
you know KRS got hand style.

 

[UGT]

most rock n regge bands sound great live
yelawolf raps great live but doesnt sing i dont think
drake is fuckin horrible live doesnt sing n yells everything
anyways its more important for a underground rapper to be a good performer than a ringtone rapper thats how u win new fans ...system of a down,tool and rage against the machine are exceptional live

 

[niguardian]

the hoodstarz killed it live and they were just the opening act, the main show ended up being hella boring
