Hey Stevie. I fuck with you, but you confuse the hell out of me. You spent about two minutes praising his first half of his first verse And then literally 30 seconds later said you wouldn’t dive deeper with him because he’s not saying anything special. I just can’t believe that song wasn’t good enough to peak your interest in his catalog. Keep in mind this was done as a veteran. For me, the flow is incredible and the lyrics are great. I realize I’ve been sitting with this song for about 20 years now, but regardless It is dope.

2021-06-08 15:28:46 +0000 UTCI’m an older man. When I think of Rakim, I go back to Eric B and Rakim and songs like Paid in Full. This was way back on early hip hop, 1987. He’s truly one of the originals.

2021-03-03 22:01:02 +0000 UTCFor those who don't know, Tech N9ne went at Rakim and Keisha Cole in this song. Excellent suggestion!

2021-03-01 16:36:12 +0000 UTCThe 18th letter is 🔥🔥 he is an originator of complex rhyme schemes without people like rakim we wouldn’t have what we have today

2021-03-01 10:27:00 +0000 UTCThis was rakim on a (what was then new school shady beat) he was making a song people would listen too. My opinion, but to be fair my opinion is bias because it was rakim who truly made me love and respect hip hop. But back then bars were deep and direct not as complex. Just to be honest. The complexity of the bar was in the truth no one wanted to hear at the time.

2021-03-01 07:45:19 +0000 UTCYou should watch crook’s corner interview with Rakim. So good! https://youtu.be/qyqR8pi_GVw

2021-02-28 23:49:07 +0000 UTCI think the thing with Rakim is he was one of the first to rhyme like that (rhyming every other syllable, etc) and made things more complex. Now his flows and stuff sound more simple to our ears but he is so important because he was the first.

2021-02-28 23:42:47 +0000 UTCI would say check out rap game with 50 and d12 Ik you don’t really rock with d12 like that but I think it’s a dope one you might like kinda like when the music stops

2021-02-28 23:40:44 +0000 UTCFollow the Leader...I Ain’t No Joke...When I be on the mic and I love Know the Ledge are a few to start! Rakim is dope AF!

2021-02-28 23:33:27 +0000 UTCThe 18 letter. That's probably my favorite Rakim song. How to Emcee is also a dope ass song.

2021-02-28 23:27:39 +0000 UTCI agree he should just do more tech n9ne in general 💯
Tha Creator
2021-02-28 23:10:41 +0000 UTCu Should do (Linkin Park Ft. Rakim - Guilty All The Same) is a very interesting collab and music

2021-02-28 23:05:44 +0000 UTCOne song to check out is blown away by tech n9ne. Good song to see his perspective
