The Official "Ask dead prez a Question" Thread

[dead prez]

Should I call you diction or dead prez?

I'm honestly thinking of changing my name to delirium.

Are you serious when you say that Nas sucks?

First off I said "new" Nas sucks, not vintage Nas, and no I wasn't.

What do you think of Gorillaz?

Pretty good though I haven't listened to their catalogue in it's entirety, Del should have stayed with them.

Dogs or cats?

Cats, require less attention, plus they can clean themselves.

Have you ever met any famous rappers?

No, but my Math teacher is a rapper, but a lot of people in Staten Island (where I'm from) claimed they bumped heads with Method Man and other Wu affiliates.

Zion I is awesome, what's your favorite album by them?

Mind Over Matter first and foremost, early 00 West Coast alternative is the shit.

What other producers besides Nujabes do you enjoy the most?

-Rza work on albums like Liquid Swords and OB4CL
-Oh No (brother of Madlib)
-Kanye West
-Havoc (Mobb Deep)
-Buckwild

Do you have any irrational fears?

Roaches, because I stepped on one barefoot when I was a child and left a steaming pile of gush on the floor.

If you saw a person drowning in a freezing cold river, would you jump into said river to try & save that person?

If it's someone I know than yeah, if not than it's tough, but I don't know how to swim so I'll go with no.

Did you listen to the new Bad Meets Evil track "I'm On Everything"? Thoughts?

No I honestly haven't, new Eminem bores me and I'm not a fan of Royce, I might though cause my brother's a fan, and he's the one who got me into Hip Hop, and he's actually a huge Em stan, ironic isn't it?

How honest do I sound in my posts?

When you attempt to troll it's pretty obvious, though unless you've been lying to us this whole time about everything than good job, you had me fooled.

How much effort do you put into your posts in general?

A lot especially when I try to go on Embase type rants, I actually make sure my word choice is above average and make sure I'm not using improper grammar or wrong word choice. I do try my hardest to look educated and be insightful when I do post seriously.

Top 5 Lupe songs?

-Hurt Me Soul is by far my favorite song by him.
-Little Weapon, I like the whole concept of it I guess.
-Coulda Been
-Streets on Fire
-Uh Failure

Do you think I'm ever going to run out of questions?

Nope

How did your high school career go in retrospective, looking back on it now?

Honestly it could have been a lot better, and I made a lot of choices that I regret. I made a few friends but was pretty much an introvert, no I wasn't a social pariah however. There's a few people I'll miss now that I'm leaving and probably won't ever see again, but I'll keep in contact with them.

-Grades wise/extra curricular activites, meh. Good enough to get into a decent college, without me opening a book, so I'd say it worked out pretty well.

What do you think of Mos Def's singing?

Pretty good, he has a great rap voice in general, that's easy on the ears. Though I rarely listen to rappers whose voice pisses me off.

How would you answer this question?

[Master Chief]

Why do you ask questions in other threads regarding me and their thoughts on me?

[dead prez]

How would you answer this question?

You're a faggot.

Why do you ask questions in other threads regarding me and their thoughts on me?

I'm curious to see how other people percieve you in this forum I guess?

[dead prez]

Why is life a bitch?

I'm so sorry I skipped over this question, after all you changed my name, and I might be needing your services in the near future.

I guess it's because death is jealous of you flirting with her?

Shitty answer I know

[Satire]

Who would you like to see make a question thread next?

[dead prez]

Who would you like to see make a question thread next?

-Maybe
-Block

After that we got pretty much every member that matters to have one.

Who do you think are the top 5 best multi-syllabic rhymers in Hip-Hop?

[Master Chief]

What key part of the female entity do you not give a shit about when rating how hot she is? Which aspect do you give a shit about?

[dead prez]

Who do you think are the top 5 best multi-syllabic rhymers in Hip-Hop?

Hmm, is this a test on my Hip Hop knowledge?

-Eminem
-Gift of Gab
-Sadistik
-Elzhi
-One Be Lo

I don't really care how many syllables a rapper can fit in each verse honestly.

What key part of the female entity do you not give a shit about when rating how hot she is? Which aspect do you give a shit about?

First question ass

Second question, umm Tits?

[Satire]

Who is the fattest member on the forum?

When was the last time you used a tasteless "your mom" or "That's what she said" joke?

Why do you sway back and fourth with your visibility?

Who is the worst "GOAT candidate" out of guys like Biggie, Jay-Z, Em and such?

Do you think Biggie was better than Eminem?

Biggie's flow vs. Tech's flow

If you had to choose, who here would you actually want to get in a debate with?

[dead prez]

Who is the fattest member on the forum?

One Mic if that greasy pussball you posted in that thread that you and class got banned in is really him. Though I'm starting to think you're relatively unattractive for some reason, if you did post your pic, I'd probably not look at it for fear of being dissapointed. Plus I like envisioning you as a female, so yeah.

When was the last time you used a tasteless "your mom" or "That's what she said" joke?

I rarely use it in real life, though I did ask TJ if his mom knew about the big girls folder if that counts. I never use either of them honestly, as I find them tasteless and immature.

Why do you sway back and fourth with your visibility?

It's a reflection of my mood, me turning invisible is when I have thoughts of leaving for good but keep coming back. Whenever I revert back to visible than that means I'm here to stay. It's like a guy trying to commit suicied but backs out at the last second.

Who is the worst "GOAT candidate" out of guys like Biggie, Jay-Z, Em and such?

I would probably go with Biggie only cause he has the smallest catalgoue of one classic and another disputable classic, though whatever he made was legendary. He wasn't that technically adroit, but he sweated charisma like a pig and was the type of rapper that could fuck your bitch and you wouldn't be pissed off at him. The original Lil B, except he could actually rap.

Do you think Biggie was better than Eminem?

I honestly used to think this, now I'm not sure. Yeah Eminem was a better multies rapper, but Biggie just has this aura around him that's unexplainable honestly. He had great flow, delivery, storytelling, mic presence, just the complete mc. I honestly believe he could have grown into so much more if he was still alive, and he was fucking 24 when he died, think about that, he would have no doubt adapted with the times to fit whatever was mandatory to be considered a good mc, as seen in the way he transitioned from R2D to LAD.

Do I think he's better though, from what he's produced, no, but he was on another level standing above everyone else in his own plateu when he was alive.

I'd probably spin R2D and LAD over any pre encore album though, if that answers your question.

Biggie's flow vs. Tech's flow

Haven't listened to that much Tech n9ne, but I'm not a fan of or really impressed by rapid fire flows that much, so I'd go with Biggie's. His flow on the last verse of Machine Gun Funk.

If you had to choose, who here would you actually want to get in a debate with?

Probably MikenUfc, I consider him my equal (hope he doesn't take that as an insult), we have a similar enough music taste, see eye to eye on many things, and we could probably have a respectful debate where it doesn't devolve into flame fests.

[Satire]

Who wears the Oliver Hart set better, me or Block?

[dead prez]

Would that be the current set both of you are donning which confuses the shit out of me?

I guess I'll go with Block because he's a bigger Eyedea fan, though you're the one who originally had it so...
