[Indiana]

I don't how people say prodigy is a waste of talent. His last two albums are the shit.

Arsenal of Smash Unit

Phatts Bossi--fell off had stupid flow tho!

Agerman- i dont knock him for going gospel but if he would have stayed on some gangsta shit he would b looked at as one of the rawest spittin!

I don't how people say prodigy is a waste of talent. His last two albums are the shit.

His lyricism has declined since the first HNIC album IMO. He doesn't spit any where near the level he used to on his first 3 albums (Infamous, Hell On Earth, Murder Music) Now days he's really a hit or miss. The last few albums he's released, the beats have carried his albums...

 

[Infamy Loc]

IF ITS ANYONE THAT JUST WASTED THEIR TALENT IT WOULD HAVE TO BE CANIBUS......HE HAD TO BE THE SICCEST LYRICALLY IVE EVER HEARD AND HE JUST FELL OFF COMPLETELY....THE ONLY SHIT IVE HEARD FROM HIM LATELY WAS A FEW GARBAGE SONGS ON HIS MYSPACE.......

[Meta4iCAL]

Biggie because he was only able to drop 2 albums before he died

Crooked I because he's one of the best rappers in the game today and has never dropped an album

 

[ovwarrior]

ODB

 

[Monstaville Music]

Didnt read the whole thing but my vote would go to Mr Kee. He was hands down the best latin artist in the bay. After the latin plaque i dont kno what happen. He still gots spits i just think he could of done more

 

[lifeofthestreet]

Okay i have to say again like in another thread thats its a shame to forget about the Half Dead Organization. Coming so damn hard with one single album and then disappearing forever.
Fits way more in this thread than all the other rappers being mentioned here who released one or two good albums and then 500 bullshit ones. This is not wasted talent, this is a case of "oh dude isnt as talented as everyone thought" or "oh dude fell off"......

 

[MAVA]

UNLV (Cash Money)-they basically started to blow up Cash Money records then retired and Cash Money blew the fuck up they came out with shit after trying to diss cash money but it wasnt the same

Young Joker-That dude was tight back in the day didnt feel his 2nd effort don't know if he did anything else after something major

Kingpin Skinny Pimp-without DJ Paul & Juicy J his career went down like most folks that they kicked out

Playa Fly-dude was too much of a luni

Twisted Black-releases an album then gets locked up like twice I think

Doomsday Productions-Where the fuck did they go?

C-9 (memphis)-dude was a beast on the mic most memphis rappers only put out them ug tapes way back when they just didn't have the money to release solid projects Carmike gets a notable mention

G-Simm-RIP

Foesum-Where'd they go? I was just reading some shit on them I didn't know Domino and the Twinz where in the group in the beginning and when Dre said "Perfection is perfected so imma let em understand" he aimed it at the group (who went by perfection beforehand) just thought i'd throw it in

Greenwade-I dont think he had much talent but others may differ

211 (bay)-What happened to them?

Dion Stewart (Black Dynasty)-RIP

K-Dee-Ass Cash Or gas was tight

MAC-A true bay legend RIP

No Limit Records for going commercial

Pharaoh (street Military)-dude is doing a lotta time and had some tight shit a big waste of talent lost to the prison system

Bradley Nowell (Sublime)-they put out some classic material dude was tight damn heroin addict

for sure this one
