Rappers Are Going To Start Dying

Postby Acula M.D. » Sep 24th, '10, 17:52

Think about it. The one's we regard as legends (Pac, Biggie, Big Pun, Big L) are some of the few notable rappers who've died and it was from being shot. Hip-Hop only came to light in like the mid 80's so not many people who have made an impact have died of old age yet. When KRS-One, Kool G Rap, Rakim and a few others die maybe we can finally put talent into perspective. I don't want them to die by any means but I think it's weird hip-hop is still so young and that it's founders are still pretty much alive and well. Grandmaster Flash is still running around.

He's not considered a legend,but he was one of the best rappers ever.

R.I.P to him of course, and I liked/like him but for the vast majority of Non-Stans he is just known as "that guy who was in D12 and Eminem's best friend".

He didn't do anything significant to go down as a hip-hop legend (thats why he isn't)

Rick Ross is more of a hip hop legend than Proof tbh
