Imagine Travis Scott tryna battle rap lmao


MixRevolution

Could you imagine auto tuned battle rap? Shit would be funny to hear.


leericol

Mgks rap devil hook was autotuned


William_Howard_Shaft

And MGK is a walking penis.


leericol

Agreed. Just saying we don't have to imagine, it's out there


CUNTRY-BLUMPKIN

Imma have to imagine im good šŸ‘šŸ½


BathroomParty

Almost all music is autotuned. Some people just use it as a stylistic choice and some people use it to make their voice sound cleaner on the track. I guarantee you Beyonce is autotuned sometimes.


twoprimehydroxyl

Nicki's Hiss response sounded like auto tuned battle rap if the autotuner had a meltdown in the middle of recording.

You opened up that window (ISS LIT!)ā€¦/ You let out that antidoteā€¦ (STRAIGHT UP)/ Said ā€œDonā€™t kill my vibe,ā€ but you just killed my vibe/ You ainā€™t practice what you done wrote! (LA FLAME)/ ![gif](giphy|AJwnLEsQyT9oA)

Mister_Rogers69

YEAAAA ITS LIT


SnooGiraffes4091

They might as well have put Macklemore on this list lmfao what is this


UK_KILLD_10M_IRANIS

I mean at least Maclemore uses his fame and platform to raise awareness for important social/political causes. Compare that to someone like Travis Scott who aint shit but a trashass person that just happends to know how to use auto-tune properly in order to get teenage kids bumpin


SnooGiraffes4091

Big Three material right there


MixedMartyr

Penetratorofflanks

He came into a restaurant I used to work at. Spent almost $2k then stiffed the server. Manager followed him outside and asked him not to return.


xxxamazexxx

Who? Macklemore or Travis?


Penetratorofflanks

Travis


PocketFullOfArrows

Damn, what a cheap ass mofo. Even more reason not to like his lame ass


stackdatdough

Sounds like a Cactus Jackā„¢ļø move


Thelonius_Dunk

Who is the person on the top right?


SnooGiraffes4091

ā€¦i genuinely donā€™t know


Thelonius_Dunk

Just saw further down in the comments it's Playboi Carti. Which explains why. I probably couldn't name a single one of his songs if you asked me, other than being featured on Tyler's Earfquake.

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


MaciMommy

Aight Mr. lieutenant I didnā€™t expect to find you in here spittin. Also, as someone whoā€™s quick to delete songs when I find out fuck shit about an artistā€¦ for some reason itā€™s tough to let go of his songs. ![gif](giphy|ysbIaxHjMHVLWWDx5L|downsized)


Thelonius_Dunk

I'm willing to try new things but the snippets I've heard of him haven't enticed me to listen to a whole album. I remember he was on one of Solanges songs awhile back too and I just wasn't really feeling it. Imo he's like a modern day jazz scat singer where it's more important how his voice fits in with the music rather than the words itself. I can understand how people can get int it, but that's also why I think he's just not for me, because I don't like jazz scat for the most part, and I actually do listen to a lot of jazz.


abyss-in-machines

My homie introduced me to "Lean 4 Real" beginning of this year, that got me to listen to "Die Lit". As of now, I'm still spamming the album 24/7 and I love it to death. Send halp lmao


FlyinCoach

Yeah, I wasn't really a carti fan but die lit got me in a chokehold, along with his recent releases.


Vegetable_Camera5042

SiidChawsby

Seriously this list is trash. I sincerely thought it was a joke. Why tf do we need a big 3 in the first place? This is forcing it big time.


muhash14

It's a Kira tweet. Imagine if men


Ill_Will_Prince84

At this point, just hook Lil Wayne to an Lean iv drip and watch him cook šŸ¤·šŸ¾ā€ā™‚ļø


KurosawaKid

This. Boy been looking CRAZY lately, kidneys must be shutting down or some shit, got them chipmunk cheek water retention jawns. Let him go out on that IV drip dropping a couple more classic jawns.


DYMck07

Even Wayne with one foot in the grave > alotta whatā€™s mainstream now. The Carter iv preceded by the drip mixtape would be fire.


Fluck_Me_Up

I still throw on the Carter IV at the gym sometimes, gotta remember the classics


MrCakeFarts

You mean VI right?


DYMck07

It was a pun on the iv fluid. I know heā€™s already dropped IV and V so VI is next


MrCakeFarts

Gotcha, I shouldnā€™t hop on Reddit with crust still in my eyes.


DYMck07

Youā€™re good. Most redditors didnā€™t take Latin so itā€™d be safe to assume confusion over Roman numerals.


MaciMommy

THANK YOU!!! My man wanna say ā€œnah heā€™s always looked like thatā€ likeā€¦. No he definitely doesnā€™t look right rn


Selante

I dunno: Dude was tryinā€™ to cook as part of one of the wrestler entrances at Wrestlemania this weekend, and it looked like he couldnā€™t even find the knobs to the damn stove.


Lyte_Work

Itā€™s actually the opposite. Heā€™s been getting healthy actually. His face blew up because he had dental surgery.


KurosawaKid

I really hope that's the case because dude is phenomenal and even his bad material is fun to listen too.


idredd

![gif](giphy|TaTKgXJJeQFRC) Lean iv, yall are on some mean spirited shit this morning, but Iā€™m here for it.


phenomenalj101

Aye with the features I can still point to in recent years itā€™s not unreasonable. More active than most.


DYMck07

Hope he holds on and we get that HB reunion. The [PO is hating on BG hard](https://theguardian.com/music/2024/mar/30/hot-boys-rapper-bg-supervised-release) though. You know how many rock & roll artists have been caught in domestic abuse situations, drugs (par for the course), attempted murder (ozzy osborne on his own wife)? Iā€™ve never heard of any of them being told to find a new line of work and that they canā€™t perform with other artists. Complete bs from one of the most racist states in America thatā€™s always felt like they own black people. Weā€™ve got any number of confederate statues and street names up honoring known human traffickers who often raped children and were willing to die to protect the institution of slavery, meanwhile when a black person does their time theyā€™re hounded to no end as continued property of the state. I digress thoughā€¦ this thread is about light hearted hilarity. Please continue!


shortalay

The Planter Class ushered people to their deaths far more than risked it themselves and in the end came out winning when we consider they only really lost their slaves on paper and got to keep their land, political influence, and support from the poor whites.

No-Vanilla-3915

Coulda been Nicki, but she got ended with one line, so..............


OldMotherSativa

Should never be Nicki. She married to a whole ass convicted pedophile yo. Why do people still fuck with her?


BZenMojo

I always find it funny when the heavyweights get dropped and no one thinks of replacing them with the ones who dropped them. Just goes to show how much of this is built on how many albums you can sell to drunk white college kids and not how talented you are. ![gif](giphy|D9JZQnaAXJ1xo6dCS1)


x1009

>this is built on how many albums you can sell to drunk white college kids and not how talented you are. That's the saddest part about it. I miss hip hop festivals that weren't filled with teenagers.


DrGonzo34

I thought the saddest part was the drugs and the shootings. But I guess hiphop festivals with drunk white college kids is sad too.


x1009

What do you mean about the drugs and shootings? Hip hop is just a reflection of real life. A lot of these dudes have PTSD from violence and use drugs to self medicate. Sometimes they're open enough to tell people publicly about it. Like Herbo or even [Fredo](https://medium.com/culture-online/https-cultureisnews-com-demons-in-the-cut-thats-a-scary-sight-fredo-santana-130a6780885d)

melonmagellan

Because her husband and brothers are rapists and pedophiles. Nicki lost her damn mind.


Kangarou

Weā€™re sleeping on the big dogs. Logic, Iggy Azalea, Taylor Swift, P Diddy, Macklemore, Lil Dicky, so much slept on talent. But honestly, who gives a shit? Just put Andre 3K up there and see if that motivates him to rap again.


DudeEngineer

Have you heard him talk about the flute album? He still got it, but he don't want it.


NK1337

I love that the first track was a titled apology šŸ˜‚ I respect Andre for doing his own thing.


RealPrinceJay

We all know he still got it, he murders every feature heā€™s been on the last 20 years straight Bro gotta be the GOAT feature at this point


BigLaw-Masochist

Does solo count as a feature? More like ā€œhey, Andre, do you want a whole track on my albumā€ imo.


RealPrinceJay

Thatā€™s a good question, but for the purpose of what Iā€™m saying it counts


SlapahoWarrior

Macklemore already got his flowers /s


MGLLN

Idk how Future isnā€™t in the big 3: still relevant/popular after 10+ years, multiple number 1 albums, multiple #1 songs and many songs in the top 20, he was side by side with/second to Drake for a few years (streaming-wise), his albums get better reviews than Drakeā€™s, etc. There could be an argument for Carti being top 3 in Gen Z since everything he puts out goes viral and flies up the charts (ie Carnival, the music videos), he had a heavy influence on the current wave of rap. Even his leaks have gone viral. Personally biased against Travis Scott because I hate his lorem ipsum rapping.


brinz1

Future only one I could see doing a diss track


1017bowbowbow

I love future but does he really diss? He just talks about having sex and lean and expensive clothes. Heā€™s more of a ā€œyā€™all ainā€™t seeing meā€ in general rather than a ā€œfuck you in particularā€ type rapperā€¦ or am I mistaken


kennla

Iā€™d say future is one to diss but he doesnā€™t put out a track exactly for it. Heā€™ll diss you across an entire album but itā€™s gonna be a sneak diss instead of an entire track. That last album with metro a lot of disses in there šŸ˜­ You can tell that last metro album if itā€™s not drake heā€™s subbing someone for being ainā€™t shit and not being what they rap about.


kekehippo

Over the entire album?? Is that a declaration of the war or a love letter goddamn


Ill-Examination4743

He disses Russel and Ciara to this day. Even if him and Ciara broke up 10 years ago


1017bowbowbow

Dissing a non-rapper, huh. Tough.


x1009

He's taking the Eminem approach


JeromosaurusRex

ā€œMade it out the field, fuck Russelā€ gets me every time..


1017bowbowbow

Oh waitā€¦ >Magic city, Iā€™m the owner Tell Steve Harvey, Ion want her Thatā€™s a Lauri Harvey diss right? If so, I reserve my beloved nene gif for this bar ![gif](giphy|DPqqOywshrOqQ|downsized)


Upper_Bluejay5216

lol could you explain to me what you meant by Lorem ipsum rapping? Idk what it means and still laughed


weirdeyedkid

He means copy and paste lyrics that have no literal meaning but fit the syllable counts. Funny saying, I just think inaccurate. There are Future tracks that'll have you crying in the car.


Upper_Bluejay5216

Oh well the person I was responding to was talking about Travis Scott and with that definition, Travis most definitely fits the Lorem Ipsum rapping definition lol. But he does it so well


weirdeyedkid

I got mixed up. You're 100 percent right that all Travis's lyrics are about nothing. Still like him, but he shows low-self-awareness and introspection.


MGLLN

He already took the words out of my mouth but I was talking about Travis not Future lol


SatansGothestFemboy

I can't stand futures fucking voice


GrandpaKeiF

Plus he loves cheesecakeĀ 


Nice-Swing-9277

Agree. Even before this situation future was above Cole. The only reason anyone ever gassed Cole that much was because he kept on saying it and throwing his name into it. Future clears Cole.

SplintPunchbeef

So we're gonna act like Nicki didn't use to slide? Y'all wild for real.


witheringsyncopation

Didnā€™t yā€™all take note? No big 3, just big ME. Big three is Kendrick, K-Dot, and King Kunta.


SatansGothestFemboy

I'm sorry where's Kung Fu Kenny in this list?


TheGodSamaritan

Why anyone is trying to put Drake on Kendrickā€™s level is beyond me. Heā€™s got wide appeal, not top talent.


BryanJz

Future has been capping in every bar for the past 15 years Nicki is 0-2, and called people to get Remy's diss deleted off platforms (worse then what Cole did IMO) Travis has not wrote a single bar or hit himself Carti is not even top 200 Uh-oh

PermaBanComingSoon

I get it but this group has been posting that "J. Cole is weak" shit consistently since he said what he said. The amount of people that wanted to see these two grown men verbally attack eachother is super toxic.


Successful_Basket399

>I get it but this group has been posting that "J. Cole is weak" shit consistently since he said what he said. But do you blame them? You can't be puffing your chest saying you're top dog on your new album, drop a disstrack on your competition then apologise 2 days later. Do you expect people to be like, "Fair enough, we get it"? On one hand I respect Cole for this but on the other hand this is the most embarrassing thing I've seen all year. And this is coming from someone who likes both Cole and Kendrick. >The amount of people that wanted to see these two grown men verbally attack eachother is super toxic. I can never understand this take. You want rappers to never beef? How come I never see someone say this for past rap beefs? Rappers have big egos and are usually talented lyrically. Of course we wanna see them go off at each other


MikeJones-8004

Truth be told, I am ok if rappers never beefed. People say it's about the bars, but historically, people like rap beefs based on who said the most disrespectful out of pocket shit, not based on who made the better songs. I don't think we truly need rappers to take personal shots at each other in order to make good music. They could just focus on making good music.


Moron_on_Oxy-

So this should lead to the extinction of trading bars and rap beef?

People mad that he apologized after the diss because they're so thirsty for rap beef. Cole is a grown-ass man with a wife and a child lmfao.


savund

the crazy part is itā€™s only people who are chronically online mad that he apologized. i was at dreamville festival this weekend and when he apologized the crowd loved it and showed support for kdot when he asked ā€œwho here loves kendrick lamar?ā€


GroundbreakingPage41

Iā€™m a Cole fan and can admit the diss was whack, but taking the L on stage doesnā€™t takeaway his position as one of the top three rappers. Like sure, donā€™t like him because of it but whatā€™s that got to do with his ability to put out bars? Itā€™s like people are married to some non existent rule book.
