to the missouri people here or into the sound

[45Yr Old Virgin]

i dunno if its me or what but it seems not too many people from KC or whatever liking too much of the chicago/gary sound.....just wondering why if that is so cause its like vice versa to me, i am not way into misery shit besides CCG, Tech, Lejo Dove Dawg, and Lyrikal Warfare cause the rest just sound lowbudget lame raps to me.....

 

[Heat Myser]

I will agree....alot of it has been low budget, but I think you will find there is a new breed of rappers coming out of KC between Strange, 70 Mile, and 5150 and the people around these labels that are putting much more time and effort into making quality recordings. Just wait...the game is changing in KC.

And I also do like Chi music.

 

[techn9nehq]

I'm feeling a lot of Chi-town shit, it's just been awhile since i've been into it. Like a few years ago I was going around scooping up every snypaz, psychodrama, twista, speedknot shit that was available. My boy from up there also sent me some mix cds called "Wicked Streets of Chi". Some tight shit! Now that this midwest board is up I'm anxious to hear some more shit from up there. As for KC........

Kansas City rap has like 4 tiers.....

Top tier would include Tech N9ne.

Second tier would include everyone associated with Tech (Kutt, Kaliko, Grant, Lejo, Yung Gunz, etc) and a few other artists who have some legitimate skills (Paul Mussan, RES, Court-Dog)

Third Tier would be your dope game rappers, ie. Rich The Factor, who have a very scattered but strong fan base.

and finallly the Fourth tier.....which is everyone else who is garbage. Through the years I've noticed the power of having Tech or Rich on your album....becuase 95% of these fools who have them on their shit aren't shit when it comes to rapping. They are selling off the names of others pretty much.

But I like what I'm seeing from some up and coming labels like Heat mentioned......Lock-n-Load/5150, 70 Mile, Dedicated Records, Bomb-as Records, World League Records and everyone who's down with Strange Music. These labels have some bonified talent and given the chance they can break into that upper echelon and blow this town up.

Let's not forget about the abundance of producers from the town too!

'03 is gonna be a big year in KC

[jesse james]

[jesse james]

No shit, VIP they cool over there but they never let my legs stretch, they never let me get my nails dirty, I'm still cool with them cats but they wanted me to endorse the Young Boyz but I'm a grown man , I don;t know how to promote teenage high school boys to jr high and 6 th grade kids .....oh well...Me and Warfare have been doing cool on our own, we keep pressing up lil singles to let the public know we about to pimp slap them ...

i'm call u when I get home......u know this is Gimmi Sum

 

[45Yr Old Virgin]

its true though, rest of stl sounding lame, i bought the mind over body album thinking it was tight shit cause paul said it was and it ws garbage at least beatwise...it was lowbudget and dated and it was only made in 97 but sounded like 94 shit

 

[Que]

REST OF ST.LOUIS SOUNDING LAME, U MUST NOT KNOW ABOUT RAGDOLL GROUP (ABYSS) THEY SIGNED WITH ATLANTIC....SK SIGNED WITH SONY, NIC FUERY SIGNED WITH ATLANTIC...KING JACOB IS WITH NELLY AND THEM NOW, U MUST NOT KNOW...NOT TO MENTION THE OTHERS THAT HAVE SIGNED WITH MAJORS BUT R IN DEVELOPMENT RIGHT NOW...L8

 

[jesse james]

Warfare potna Mista G is developing stages with Ruff Ryders.........
King Jacob is only other thang i think is tight herre and all I've heard are old cuts from him......

But STL needs to get a sound instead all this let's try and sound like East Coast or let's try West Coast or Bounce music like CAsh Money older shit

U got that Deadly Deuce Nott Datt album....now that is what set it off for STL rap for me......

 

[Mr.HydroSTL]

u wanna hear some classic STL music pickup the Bullot Proof Records compilation called "Ghetto Insanity" might be hard to find but its a good album. Also get that Los album "NIGGA ON THE EDGE".

OUT OF ORDER Album was tight also but it didnt sell.

This is dj i noe was tight with Abyss he said the deal they had fell thru because the group sent the Record Label the album and they sent that shit back, so their deal is over with.

Da Hol 9 almost had a major deal but with a Major Company but dey fucked dem over because of missed meeting.

 

[Twist3d]

tech gets less love than yall think in kc........i used to be a huge tech fan but i cant even listen to him no more unless its the worst or calm b4 the storm........anghellic was coo tho........hes startin to sell out.......

 

[Slide]

hes startin to sell out.......

On what do you base this statement? Because I don't agree at all.

 

[Twist3d]

look at the way he acts and his lyrics....nuthin like what they used to be....he acts like a fuckin drug addict rock star....but thats him so fuck it

 

[jesse james]

I like Tech9 shit now more then his older stuff....................

Tech9 got a wicket ass flow....................

HydroSTL, where u in the STL??????????

 

[P-Nut]

look at the way he acts and his lyrics....nuthin like what they used to be....

Real spittin homie, When I first heard his shit back in '95 he was alot tighter than he is now. He had a raw street sound, but like he said hes a "slacker" and homie slacked up a bit from then to now. He still gets play from me but hes been better.
