official hip-hop litmus test: hip-hop's greatest year

max's importance is in his influence : he's a direct influence on one of the biggest selling artist of 2011, on the current biggest ny rapper (not named jay-z) & on the most hyped rookie of 2011.

Max is a rapper's rapper i guess

Max B: The Talk Talk of rap

if max was released today it would crash rap radar. his popularity grew since his trip to prison

more like grandmaster caz

i honestly haven't gotten any sense of max's popularity growing in the last year or two, outside of deej posts it seems like people talk about him way less now than a couple years ago

it would crash. rap. radar.

i mean, sure, max's buzz isn't what it was when he was actually releasing music in terms of web presence, but basically anyone i know who is into rap irl knows max b now, and that wasn't the case in 2009

& to head off that zing, not because of me

if you asked rap fans in 1988 who Original Concept was, they would know too tho

you do a good job of comparing things that weren't compared. that part was in response to al's point, not yours

original concept made one album. max b made like 12

one of the five most popular rappers in america never claimed original concept as a primary influenec

i literally haven't heard anyone credit french montana's current success to max b or even bring him up since dude got a hit song

Original Concept was sampled on like two of three most important rap albums of 1988, but OK

stfu whiney, if they didn't make more albums last month than lil b they DON'T MATTER

When did I say they didn't matter?

Arguing with you guys is ridiculous, its like youre going out of your way to get me to say something most ppl disagree with to discredit the thrust of what I'm saying.

And french montana's buzz certainly existed before he had a hit. Kanye was trying to sign him prior to that iirc?

So.....1988 or 1993?

MAX B

The point I made w the catalog size comparison us that max had a five year career and released tons of songs widely considered classics among rap fans. Original concept had one album. The comparison is apples and oranges already, but the scope of max's career is much larger

Lol whiney you chose this argument! I mentioned him in passing and you decided top make a national issue about it

Original Concept has released TWO classic songs. I have no idea what Max B songs "rap fans" consider as "classics"

Max B's wikipedia page doesn't even name one song anywhere, but OC's page is littered with references to "Can You Feel It"

lol 'discredit', again with the haughty politician talk

Lol @ you citing wikipedia

\o_o/

max b having "tons of songs widely considered classics among rap fans" is pretty hilarious

i know wikipedia's not nearly as reliable a source as "all the rap fans I know IRL"

Ok dudes if you say so. I certainly trust friends irl over hipster puppies, al and wikipedia

And....once again it's Manos: The Hands of Fate

deej we already went over how i actually knew max b's music better than you before you got all superfan

how come al doesn't get a mean nickname

And whiney I'm surprised u consider your own book a "mean nickname"!

Amazing find, some dude

Is it me or is whiney's statistical analysis working against him?

Its fun to get into debates with djdee.

He is so serious sounding.

I'd say that when he has something relivant to say (about half the time), he does so fairly eliquently and intelligently, but then he has some many worthless posts its hard not to take issue with it. Oh well, who cares, right? keep talking dude.

Lol of course the grand buffet fan would take this side of sage francis stans I trolled a decade ago for not liking scarface

just like being a baby, man

But keep up the estalking

i never posted 7000 times on a grand buffet message board fwiw

seeing the world through wavy colored glasses

Damn whiney you can't even get the quote right.

i really just stumbled upon it on the first page of google results for 'djdee2005' when i was trying to remind myself how your old dn was spelled for my stupid 'djdave2005' joke on the sandbox
