It's not that certain artists are overrated...it's just that there are a select few that get the most exposuer...they know the right people that know the right people and have access to alot more than alot of other unheard artists do...

do people even rate nump? i'd say he's right about where he should be, cause i hardly hear folks bigging him up about his lyrical mastery.

in the mainstream tip, a lot of journalists have been getting on the pack's hype, and i think they give them too much credit.

i think this love for mac dre is overrated.... dont get me wrong, dre was tight. i have been to a lot of mac dre shows before and they weren't always at capacity. i saw him at jimmies a few months before he died and nobody payed attention. all these "followers" who act like they were fans before he died are looking for something to latch on to. thats why the sales of his old albums went through the roof when he died. if cats were truly fans before he died, they wouldnt have to go back and buy the material. same with keak. keak been rappin since the early 90's with 3x crazy....so why is he suddenly hot? he was hot back then too. what about fab? why did son of a pimp sell and nig latin didnt??? nig latin was hot too... djs were taking songs from nig latin and putting on mixtapes as exclusives when son of a pimp dropped. cats need to just admit they jumped on the bandwagon late and not overexadurate like they had love for these rappers since the begining.

so to summarize all that...lol. its not the rappers that are overrated, its these "movements" that are suddenly behind them

Fab is definitely overrated
Im not from the Bay...so obviously, my viewpoint is goin 2 be different....but I wouldnt say he's overrated......out here we hardly ever hear anything about Fab and Id say hes pretty tight mann.....but maybe its different where ure at...I just dont think hes overrated if a lot of people still arent bumpin him.....just my opinion on this thread...40 watter is overrated.....he was savage be4....I think he really needs to pass the torch
