    Default Legend of the fall offs

    Who are the biggest lyrical fall offs in history?

    State your case.

    I call to the stand Ricardo Brown aka Kurupt Young Gotti.

    ^ Yeah he's pretty bad these days.

    Maybe Ice Cube, whenever you ever hear a new song from him it's like an actor reprising an old role, and he's forgot how to do it right.

    I am going put Common into the conversation. I been listening to his new tracks. He is just trying too hard to fit some type of image. Trying to be respected by people outside of hip-hop.

    I'm going to say that Kurupt ain't it purely because he was never that good to begin with.

    I would say that 90% of rappers fall off after about 5-10 years once they get in to their 30s, get money and security they have nothing interesting left to rap about, not that most of them were that interesting anyway

    Kurupt fuckin absolutely spit flames at times during his career. So were going have to disagree about that.

    I will agree about the majority of rappers declining over the years. But the music industry for rap music has dramatically changed also. The way albums were constructed in the past, now seem to be less revelant. More about trying to appease current trends.

    Kurupt was never lyrically anything special.

    Most of these dudes fell way off 20 years ago before rap changed. Ice Cube was putting out stinkers in the 90s.

    Snoop Dogg already ran out of things to say on his second solo album. He gets by on delivery and production.

    I agree on Common. Cube too.

    RIP Prodigy but he was in a slump for a few years too. He got back on track though with some of his late career projects. I enjoy his whole catalog but some of his midcareer rapping is just lazy. It stood out even more since Havoc was getting better around the same time imo.

    Lil Wayne fell the fuck off too. His midcareer mixtape game was crazy, I have so many of his tapes that are absolutely banging, The Carter 3 was high level too, but by The Carter 4 (apart from a few singles on it) his rapping went from mediocre to bad. His verse on French Montana's Pop That, compared to everyone else on there - with someone like French himself barely competent - was sooooo awful.

    D.M.X., Fifty Cent, Cam'ron, JA Rule, Canibus, Noreaga, Cappadonna. These were people that were all hot twenty years ago this time.

    I haven't heard a Snoop Dogg song since Drop It Like It's Hot lol he does these shitty commercials for the local competitor to uber eats featuring footballers and it's fucking cringe

    Cappadonna was always garbage and I'd argue Noreaga was never that special either
