I admit, I like Nelly. I don't really like Chingy but I like the "Right Thurr" remix.

DeltaSigStan 08-26-2003 10:53 PM

I could have sworn Nelly and Chingy were the same person....same clothes, same style, same repetitive beats you can interchange each of their lyrics with, i.e. matching the lyrics from EI and the music from Country Grammar and it matching perfectly, almost the same song even though it's taken from two different parts.

But I'll give it to Nelly, although he'll find any melody to sample from, he creates some good dance tunes.

However, I don't really listen to mainstream stuff anyway....

starang21 08-26-2003 11:08 PM

if they play some songs at the club..i'll dance.

outside of that, none of that hot garbage is about to make it in my CD player.

FAB*SpiceySpice 08-26-2003 11:10 PM

I plan to marry Nelly, so yea I like him. :D I'm not a big fan of Chingy though b/c that Right Thurr song is beyond annoying. :)

MeLikey 08-27-2003 12:44 AM

I like Nelly, Ride Wit Me will always have a special place in my heart-- reminds me of fraternity parties sophomore year. However, I'm so sick of Hot in Here, used to like it but it was overplayed.

I <3 Nelly. 'Nuff said.

They got us mainstream folks saying "hurrrrrr" and "thurrrr". Even my mom. Fun stuff.

bafromkc 08-27-2003 10:39 AM

Bone Thuggs 'n Harmony are by far the best rappers from the midwest.

valkyrie 08-27-2003 01:49 PM

I loooove Nelly & Murphy Lee, but how about showin' some love for Common and Kanye West?!

Sideways, I think it's supposed to look like a heart.

ShiningStar83 08-29-2003 12:36 PM

I like Mid-West rappers even though I'm from "Down South"
I actually like Chingy, he's cute. I also like Right Thurr, it's one of my favorite club songs to dance to, especially since I learned how to do the "chickenhead":)

ztawinthropgirl 08-29-2003 02:49 PM

I am not "down" with a lot of rappers, especially the male ones. To me, nowadays, male rappers have turned into "ghetto rappers" and it drives me crazy. I wish they'd clean up their act, the way they dress, and the way they style their hair! Also, it makes no sense for these little kid rappers buying Bentleys and Rolls Royces when they, get this little shocker, CAN'T EVEN DRIVE!

Of course you meant to say, "Atmosphere and Eyedea are by far the best rappers from the Midwest."

And since that's what you meant, I totally agree with you - they're amazing.

Oh Robert, now stop! You know that not everyone is in the "know" when it comes to Atmosphere and/or Eyedea.

Bwahahahaha, Bone Thugs? You WERE kidding right?

Pretty soon people are going to start giving props to Crucial Conflict.

Oh no you didn't. I like Crucial Conflict. Ride the Rodeo is a classic.

But then I like Bone Thugs too.

ImDaChamp 08-29-2003 11:24 PM

nelly is better then talib kweli and eyedea put together.

valkyrie 08-29-2003 11:46 PM

The problem with Nelly is that, although he puts out some dope shit, some of his stuff sucks: I love you I need you Nelly I love you I do blah blah blah. That's just pure crap, but I love stuff like Pimp Juice and that Shake Ya Tailfeather song.

Don't laugh. Bone Thugs got a grammy for their great song "The Crosslines".

Err, you mean "The Crossroads." Come on now, you know being from Cleveland, Bone Thugs are our FRIENDS because we all roll on East 99. . . :rolleyes: :p

LeslieAGD 08-30-2003 11:45 AM

While I think some of their songs have good beats, I also think a lot of these artists (not just Nelly, Chingy) are the reason kids are developing poor language skills. Kids try to copy them and they just sound stupid.

This post has been graped by the Grapist! You cannot not talk! Your spelling and grammar is absolutely ATROCIOUS!

LeslieAGD 08-30-2003 11:54 AM

Thanks for changing my words around, Grapist. You're so mature. :rolleyes:

Imthachamp 08-30-2003 01:57 PM

I thought it was funny :p

juniorgrrl 08-30-2003 04:47 PM

I think this song is by Nelly...there's a line that sounds like "is that your ass or did your mama have a reindeer?"

WTF does that mean?

LOL, I don't know either. LOL, but that is SHAKE YA TAILFEATHER from the Bad Boys 2 Soundtrack.

juniorgrrl 08-30-2003 04:53 PM

LOL. FI and I have been going crazy trying to figure out what it means.

We were grocery shopping (for our own engagment party, thanks a lot mom :rolleyes:) late last night and in the car the one about "right thurrr" came on. Two yuppie ass white kids singing along...lol...

I'll see you at the crosslines, crosslines crosslines, see you at the crosslines so you won't be lonely? hahah

I'm not laughing at Bone, I"m laughing that someone said they are/were the best rap group that came out of the midwest. Of course that is their opinion and I respect that, but I don't agree with that at all. I don't think that something has to be "mainstream" to be considered "the best." I know a lot of people on these boards have probably never heard of Atmosphere.

As for Nelly, I've never really liked him. I'm not saying he's not "hip hop" or not but I just don't like his style. It sounds like he is singing more than he is rapping. As for Chingy, he should have just named himself Nelly #2, I don't see a difference between either one of them.

sugar and spice 08-31-2003 05:03 PM

Atmosphere is awesome. :p

But who doesn't like Bone Thugs n Harmony?

Either of them are far better than Nelly, or Nelly Jr.

DeltaSigStan 08-31-2003 05:05 PM

You can't compare Bone to Nelly or Chingy. That'd be like comparing Prime Rib to a beef chuck steak.

smiley21 08-31-2003 06:39 PM

You racist!!! ;) :rolleyes: :p

ztawinthropgirl 08-31-2003 08:13 PM

Whether or not one likes current rap doesn't constitute racism. Can someone not state one's opinion without someone relating something negative, such as racism, to it?
