What did you mean by "intelligent"? I thought you meant education-wise, but others oppose.
The following rappers seem to have studied/payed attention at school: Nas, Tupac, Tech N9NE, Ras Kass, Rakim, KRS-One, and many, many more.

lol...i listen to lots of music...all music...not just listenin to my friends lol...i was just sayin they had some funny ass points about nickatina that i forgot though. i just cant see how someone could be "amazed" by his lyrics heh. hella funny. sickest song ive heard off a nickatina album is that ayo-for yayo song...and oh wait...thats right...aint even him flowin on it lol. whoever that dude is is pretty coo tho...nickatina's flow is garbage...old school and hella simple soundin...like he in kindergarten or somethin. average and generic to me. he kinda got a coo low voice but so what...flow is hella offbeat...and well, shit why the fuck am i typin all this. hahahh lol i just realized that, late.
how can you criticize somebody for not knowing about the "tight shit", when you didn't even know San Quinn sings Ayo...and also, nickatina's flow is VERY rythmic and on-beat, i don't know how you can say he's off beat. he raps about peanut butter in one song. Even so, I wish there were more rappers who strayed from talking about only bitches, money, and guns.

Perfectly said 3x, that simps probably just a little kid or something....And to those that say it's Master P or P Diddy(lol) cause they got lots of money; I disagree. The reason they got lots of money is because they are on MTV and cater to the masses. And most people(the masses) are fuccin' morons. Just like D.E.'s song says,"He said D.E. you'll neva go plat, your too abstract, I(D.E.) own the label I can deal wit that...". I'm glad D.E. thinks that way, because it allows him to put out QUALITY thought provoking music, even though I'd like to see him get more money; unfortunately, his music is just over the heads of the masses, and he ain't droppin' down to their level to sell records. Appealing to simps don't take much intelligence, just selling out. PEACE OUT!

i fully disagree with that right there...them two muthafuckas is tycoons. i gives a fuck about there music i don't feel none of their shit except p's old no limit shit when he was makin music out here in the yay, but those two men right there know the game. they know how to work the industry to their benefits and because they doin it proper people wanna label them sell outs or label them pop. just straight hatin in my eyes. anybody that go platinum plus goin be pop cuz pop means popular right. i ain't hear nobody callin pac pop and his shit was all over MTV and BET and what not sellin more than double what all these other "sellouts" were pushin right? and it's kinda dumb to me that you said most people (the masses) are fuckin morons for diggin their shit like everybody should like the same shit you listen too. like i said i don't like none the music that comes out the camps of those two cats, but i think people misuse the phrase sellin out and all that goin pop shit. it all comes down to two things in my eyes jealousy and hatin. for really.

another thing cousin not everybody in this world want to listen to music that will make you think. most muthafuckas wanna hear party music or shit you could get your freak on too in the club right. you think the hoes wanna listen to some fuckin DE in the club. hell naw he way more talented, but like he said himself he's too abstract. my point being just because you sell millions of records don't make you a sellout. if a rapper first came out rappin like DE and then switched up to puffy style then i'd call him a sellout cuz he ain't doin him to make his riches he usin the next mans plan you dig. my 200 cents.

That was my original point right there. There are people in the porn industry that are tycoons too, does that make them intellegent geniuses? Fucc no. They just have a product that the masses(morons- you're trying to tell me most people are intellegent, I think not, look around dude) want, so it sells well and they make money. As for selling music, it don't take much real intelligence to know the FORMULA to be successful. Get on MTV or other media(exposure), and make music that the masses(idiots!) relate to. Simple. Almost everyone knows that. You don't think Brotha Lynch or Nickatina etc. know that? Of course they do, they just CHOOSE to make the kind of music they want to make. That makes them less intelligent, huh? So because I state my opinion, that makes me a jealous hater, huh? Fuccin' stupid! I give a fucc what MP and Puffy do, more power to them, I just don't consider them geniuses like you do, lol. It's funny how whenever someone says they don't like or disagree with what someone else is doing, people like you automatically call them a hater. LOL. What a knee-jerk reaction! In my eyes, making money does'nt make you intelligent; it just shows you're willing to cater to the masses. There's more to life than just money, although I know many simps will disagree, bling, bling! Cash Money crew have a lot of money too, I mean let's face it, they're modern-day Einsteins, lol...And I did'nt say most people were morons for liking MP or Puffy, I just said they were morons period. As for selling out, remember MP used to say(when in Cali),"...that's why you'll neva see P, on MTV"(basically cause he was a rilla..), then a couple of years later he's on MTV saying,"UUUUGGGGGGHHHH, naw, naw, naw, naw", remember that? No hate, just my opinion. PEACE OUT!

Dogs, Dogs, Dogs...




2pac, NO DOUBT, then Nas, and then Ras Kass.

Ras Kass speaks on a lot of shit, but he's arrogant... closed minded.


And UC Berkely(where my sis attends school)... DOES OFFER A COURSE on:

The impact of Tupac Shakur on American Culture.


Damn well they should.


If I had the necessary shit, I'd go to berkely and take that class...

Peace.

i still don't agree with your whole perception on this topic, but everybody got their own views. and i never said that they were geniuses and i never said that you was a hater i was referrin to the folks that down them cats for "goin pop" and "sellin out". it still trips me out how you say most people are morons though cousin. where you from? you must be around a bunch of dumb muthafuckas or somein. you seem to think that it's a cake walk to blow the fuck up and make mill's. not everybody could do it if that was the case everybody would be ballin. so it obviously takes some kind of intelligence. with so many fuckin cut throats in that industry you think some dumb air headed muthafucka with dreams to make mill's goin do it. fuck naw he goin get pimped out of everything he make. bottom line is you gotta have some kinda smarts, intelligence, hustle, work ethic to be ballin like p and puffy. you cant just buy a track from the neptunes or jermaine dupri and become a fuckin millionaire.

Master P and P Diddy are token niggas. The white media like
Viacom( WHICH OWNS UPN, BET, MTV, and VH-1 ) are going to use Will Smith and other civilized black people to be their spokesperson for the Rap Industry. They have to sugar coat a black rapper who has kids and wont say something offensive on the camera about Viacom or Universal. Its the Hampton liberal minded East Coast elites who want to make themselves look generous among the black community by hyping and having parties with rappers in the East Coast. You aint gonna see no West Coast rappers partying with rich white families on the West Coast.

For example Roca Fella . They are famous because Rockerfeller name. Rockerfeller was a mean ruthless business person until
he became a philantrophist and started to give away money to charity . Rockerfeller name is a political stronghold in New York and wont mind a black person using a similar name to boost hapiness in mainstream Americas Ghetto. And Roca Fella didnt blow up until long time Democrat token Russell Simmons backed it.

Like the saying says: Jews vote like Puerto Ricans and Blacks, but dont live in the same neighborhood"
