The 25 Worst Rappers of All Time

The 25 Worst Rappers of All Time

I Love Hip Hop Blog - When Nas declared hip hop was dead back in 2006, the following 25 artists should’ve most likely stood trial for at the very least, accessory to murder. The music that came out from these guys music was so far left from hip hop’s original roots, that it almost sounded like a parody. We countdown the 25 Rappers that set hip hop back.

Although Diddy’s slightly more passable than some of the other guys on the list, it’s downright embarrassing when you have some of the greatest rappers of all time writing your verses for you and you still end up sounding like a clown every time you step into the booth. Puff should’ve just stuck to ad-libbing.

When you think of music industry creeps; the suits that suck the blood out of legitimate artists, it wouldn’t be too surprising if you thought of Benzino. A leech that singlehandedly plunged The Source into disarray, ‘zino also had the unique ability to make diss tracks that were more insulting to him than they were to the target, simply because his rapping was so laughable.

Attenshun!!! Bone Crusher comes from the school of rappers who listened to MOP and decided that shouting loudly with minimal rhyming constituted a rapping career. Bone Crusher is probably the worst of the bunch; a Frankenstein’s monster of nonsensical lyrics and crushing tedium.

Mannie Fresh is about as bad a rapper as his former partner Birdman, but his producing chops give him a little more of a pass than he of the red-starred dome. Don’t get it twisted though, when Mannie starts rhyming it’s a good time to hit the skip button.

20 Things You Didn’t Know About Death Row Records

August 29th, 2012 | By Candy Cartel

20 Things You Didn’t Know About Death Row Records

I Love Hip Hop Blog - 20 Years ago, Suge Knight and Dr Dre launched their now legendary record label Death Row Records. Under Suge’s feared reputation and iron-fist, Death Row was able to establish itself as one of the most formidable and profitable labels in the history of music. Multiple Platinum albums, Grammy Awards, # 1 songs, and the constant fear element that surrounded the label effectively placed Knight and the burgeoning, multimillion dollar Death Row enterprise on the very tip of the hip hop music mountain. Although Death Row has been defunct for over a decade, the everlasting legacy still continues . We reflect on 20 facts about Death Row records you may have not known.

Special Thanks to Allen Grissom of the Los Angeles Times Music Blog

20. DJ Quik & The Notorious B.I.G.
Death Row affiliate, and Compton rapper DJ Quik was once considered a suspect in the murder of the Notorious B.I.G. Quik and his crew known as the ‘Tree Top Pirus’ were present at the Automotive Peterson Museum the night Biggie Smalls was killed. (Read: DJ Quik Speaks on the LAPD naming him a suspect)

19. Death Row Security
Reggie Wright Jr, the head of security for Death Row Records was the son of Compton Police Chief Reggie Wright Sr. Many believe this was a tactical move by Suge Knight to stay one step ahead of the Police.

18. Mafia Connection
David Kenner, the infamous lawyer and close confidant of Suge Knight has long been rumored to have ties with the legendary Genovese Crime Family of New York City. But according to former LAPD Detective David Peterson, Suge Knight couldn’t care less and didn’t know who they were.

17. East vs West
The seeds of the East Coast vs West Coast beef were planted down South, when Anthony ‘Wolf Jones’, Puff Daddy’s one time best friend allegedly killed Suge Knight’s close confidant ‘Jake Robles’ in an Atlanta nightclub in 1995. That incident triggered the Death Row vs Bad Boy Beef. Ironically, Anthony ‘Wolf Jones’ was killed in 2003 in an Atlanta nightclub himself. Suge Knight’s friend, Big Meech and The BMF were investigated for the crime, but Police couldn’t find any witnesses to testify and the case was eventually dropped.
