The point being.... opinion is in the eye of the beholder! Mess is tight, Obie is tight!
What would Jesus do?
If the Judas came thru Jeruselem talking bout " I heard this city is full of Homesexuals", Jesus would gather his people and strike a mighty wrath upon those who speak on his sacred grounds. Death to those that oppose me... and who roll with Obie! LOL....
Mess may have over exaggerated with the Obie thing..., but I understand. Get on a nigga's helmet and let em know what's really poppin in yo city since niggas think it's a game. As far as Obie... respect the town you in, or they might come get yo ass on the way to the airport. And as far as Jay-Z being better than Mac Dre.... they not even on the same level. Jay-Z is a rapper.... Mac Dre is an icon who created a legacy and a way of life. Besides poppin Kris and rockin ice... Jay-Z just established himself as a business man and a rapper. Mac Dre created something for the whole world to tune into to.... Thizz. It ain't new... he just put his twist on it and gave it a life it never had. East rap will never compare to West rap due to the lifestyle. East is based on metaphors and being "like" something. West is just "I am" something and this is the business. You don't have to think...just understand. Canibus is nice... but his life aint like mines. Jeezy got the hoods going crazy because everybody got dope... and you can understand that. All that mythical, theoretical, too complex to even rock the beat shit is for a different breed. So to each his own, don't like it... don't buy it or listen to it... or even compare it to something out of it's league.
