Dear Rappers- Give Us Some Good News!

| 193 Comments

Monday was a sad news day for Hip-Hop. A Las Vegas rapper killed a cop, bail was set for Trilville's Don P on rape charges, and more nonsense about Busta and his bodyguard. And word was still spreading about Jay Dee passing away. This is no way to lead into Valentine's Day.

What we need for the rest of this week is some good news from the rap world. I want to hear a slipped track from Nas over a Just Blaze beat. I want to read about how hip-hop activists are helping out the New Orleans even though everyone's forgot about Hurricane Katrina.

I need a Jay-Z/Beyonce engagement announcement. A truce and tour from T.I. and Ludacris. A Ja-Rule retirement album. Is all of that too much to ask for?

What would really make my week is a second single from the Purple Ribbon album. A sane Chappelle re-upping production on his third season would be nice too. And can Def Jam release the Redman album, the Joe Budden album, and properly re-release the Juelz album.

Can we do that, hip-hop? Don't do it for me - it's Valentines - do it for the sake of love.

Since we doin' wish lists:
Melle Mel on a Premo beat
$.50 and Ja-Rule MC Battle with the proceeds going to Busta's Bodyguard's family
Naz, AZ, Cormega,and Foxy hidden track on Godson's Def Jam Debut

A pay per view D.J. battle with Jazzy Jeff, D.J. Scratch, Kid Capri, Mister Cee, D.J. Aladdin, Magig Mike, Q-Bert and Cash Money with the proceeds going to Hurricane Katrina's victims

Rap City alternately hosted by Big Lez, The Mayor Chris, Hitz from the Streets, Big Tiger and Cita

Wild Style on BET Friday night movie

The Source like it was from 1990 to 1998

Rock Steady versus the NYC Breakers one more time

RunDMC with Jay doin' Peter Piper live one more time

LL with just a drum track and not for the women

2LIVE CREW with one more song you'll never hear on the radio

Ren, Cube, Dre and yellow doing for Easy what Puffy did for Biggie and Suge did for Pac music wise.

North, South, east and West burying the hate. "Millions the only thing we in hurry to make...."

WHAT WE NEED IS AN END TO THE RAP GAME. THOSE ARE THE MOST IGNORANT MUTHAFUCKAS IN THE WORLD!

How about no beef?

How about some donations? 50 cent made 66 million last year and all he donated was 200 grand to his G-Fund. P. Diddy, Jay Z SAME GOES FOR YOU!

How about some intelligent songs! Not no lyric whack songs.

and how about some snitchin.

WHAT WE NEED IS NOT TO MAKE THESE LONG ASS LISTS.....YOU PEOPLE HAVE WAY TOO MUCH TIME...JUST WRITE A COUPLE WORDS AND JET...DAMN

some good news.........

1.the black eyed peas no longer being able to attach the words hip hop or rap to themselves ever again.

2.J Dilla passing is just a rumor

3.Andre 3000 goes back to rapping on the next album

4.Rappers stop jumping on the next fad and do themselves..."If the next fad was hip hop fags, youd see alot of the these thug niggas in drag" - ras kass
real shit

5.Someone new to come out with a ground breaking record using their own formula, not the make a couple song for the bitches the rest of my album is filler formula that the industry has laid out for anyone to be succesful.

6.Nas lives up to the expectations and drops a classic.

that would be good news to me

a good week would be a beyonce and trina shake off nas tells jay z i tricked you nigga to get in where i fit in bitch or the death of GAY4L AND DEM FAGCHISE BOYS now thats a hiphop week

how about a jay and nas mixtape.

or jarule signing to g-unit and bringing his career back... then eventually pull a game and start the beef again...


how about a REDMAN ALBUM!!! WHEN THE HELL IS THAT REDMAN ALBUM COMING OUT ITS BEEN LIKE 5 YEARS!..

how about they stop talking about making only built for cuban linxs 2 and actually drop the damn album..

JOE BUDDEN ALBUM!!!

WHATEVA HAPPEND TO THAT NWA REUNION ALBUM

HELL WHAT HAPPEND TO DETOX.

EM SHOULD COME OUT WITH HIS RETIREMENT ALBUM BASE THE WHOLE ALBUM ON MC SKILLS SKIP THE HALLIE AND KIM SONGS, NO TRL VIDEOS, JUST UNDERGROUND EM THATS IT.... that would be dope.

ANOTHER GANGSTAR ALBUM.. where have they been.

WHAT HAPPEND TO THAT TRIBE REUNION ALBUM.

GGGGGGGGGGGGG- UNIT fan 4 life. 50 and the G-unit are going to drop some heat this. fuck Game and Murder inc. dem niggas are fags

oh and..

im i the only one that thinks that new llcoolj joint is the worst in his career... hell i didnt even know that was jlo on the chorus.. sad.. just like that song... very wack.... is it me or is he trying to redo that going back to cali flow on it... bad idea.

It could be worse you could be one of these guys or this skank could be your girl http://www.ocweekly.com/features/sex-issue/great-dick%2c-babe_2006-02-09.html

I love Dave Chappelle... but when was he a hip-hop artist. He's a comedian and a hip-hop lover/enthusiast. There's a difference.

T.I. and Luda squashed the beef long ago. I don't know about them niggas rockin together no time soon though.

Hip-hop definitely needs some good news, though. I'm with you there, Ha.

how 'bout a "Benzino died in a tragic accident" first page cover.

JUST FUCKING AROUND......

....HE WOULDNT GET THE COVER!

how about some hot song from the east coast evryone doing some hot joints like how down south doing it then music would be fun and ppl would wanna party again.

i wanna see some hot videos and mad new music for 06

Ay I'm from Vegas and that shit is fucked up what happened to the cop, not the rapper he got what he deserved. But hip hop is full of bad news these days. I honestly dont see that shit changin' anytime soon. And J-Dilla did pass it's not a rumor (r.i.p) it's sad shit ya know? The game is in such bad shape right now it's crazy. It's even worst in Vegas seeing as to how we just had an inner city rap war of our own. Shits hard everywhere. And instead of all those cheesy wishes about Nas droppin over a Just Blaze beat Ja Rule retirement album I'd be happy with just no bad news for a while. No diss tracks, no shots fired at parties or shows, no gun cases, no rape cases, no bullshit! Just for a month, Can't we be happy with something like that happening? But lets be honest, we'll never get that. These rappers think that all press is good press. ITS NOT! Yeah it may help you sell a few hundred copies or thousand or wutever but it ultimatly brings down the value of what we hold so sacred. Everytime one of these rappers get arrested on some shit when they trying to show how street they are it makes more people lose respect for the culture. No ones dying over rock or r&b. How come rap has to be the place where all the damn criminals are? Lets get something positive from these niggas for once! How you gone be worth 10's of millions of dollars and only donate 200,000 to a charity? How are all these rappers gonna be so hood and so street and not do nothing for the place where they came from? But still they piss and moan about how kids in the hood dont have many choices. Take some of that money you fools make and start some businesses. Create jobs. Hip Hop could control the world if only these drug attic/criminals/dealers/gun runners/pimps/hustlers/murderers/ would use some of that money that they are probably gonna die with anyway and create something that will remain here after they gone. Just imagine if 50, Banks, Yayo, Mobb Deep, and Nas put their money together and turned Queens into something better then what it was! Imagine if they pulled their funds and rebuilt the communities and created more jobs. Made the schools better and help hire more teachers. But as it seems, they would rather their neighborhoods stay the same. Crappy and dangerous. Sorry but I had to get this off of my chest. This shit is so fucked up. Young Havok out

Yeah T.I. and Luda ended that shit before Buck came out with Stomp but definitely not holding my breath for a tour

WHAT I WANT OUTTA HIP HOP..
NAS ALBUM
SOME GANGSTARR SHIT
NO MORE MOVIES!
STOP THIS LAME BEEFING
AZ TO BLOW UP
NEW CREATIVE VIDEOS
MORE political RAP (DEAD PREZ,PARIS,IMMORTAL TECHNIQUE)
RAPPERS DOING THINGS OTHER THAN MUSIC
REMAKING SHIT...LEAVE THE SHIT ALONE
NO MORE FUCKIN" R&B RAP COUPLES

THATS IT HIP HOP '06...HOLD YA HEAD MY PEOPLE

OH YEAH SOME HOT WEST COAST SHIT.....

BY THE WAY LUDA AND TIP AINT BATTLING THEY JUST DONT SEE EYE TO EYE WITH EACH OTHER

BY THE WAY LUDA AND TIP AINT BATTLING THEY JUST DONT SEE EYE TO EYE WITH EACH OTHER

Countdown till the FEDS shut down hip hop

363 days

I rep The Underground Queen to the fullest...

Everyone hyped about a Nas album huh?

Why?

What we need is:

Tribe reunion.
BDP reunion.
A REAL Rakim album, no BULLSHITIN DRE!
REDMAN - this century.

And like someone else said, a REAL N.W.A reunion. Sorry Snoop.

how can they do a bdp renioun when scott la rock died years ago.. thats why kris went solo.

The same way BDP (KRS) released an album AFTER scott died.

The Best Things That Could Happen For Hip-Hop:

-Beanie Sigel, Memphis Bleek, and Jay-Z drop a group album.
-Nas drops another double CD that goes platinum the first week.
-Dead Prez breaks the record for most albums sold in their first week.
-Young Buck and Lloyd Banks leave G-Unit and start their own group.
-2Pac and Biggie comes back and tells the public that is was just a publicity stunt and they will be starting a record label together.
-Wu-Tang bring New York/East Coast rap back.
-UGK goes triple platinum.
-Hot Boyz reunite.
-West Coast rappers get back on the major scene.
-When rappers debut that's wack, reporters really tell them they are wack.
-Pete Rock and CL Smooth drop one last album.

That's about it for me.

-Pete Rock and CL Smooth drop one last album.

I'll co-sign that.

Bow Wow gets beat down by Will Smith.

People stop hating on Will for not being like everyone else.

Chingy comes out the closet.

Underground MCs from the West get their props for keeping real Hip Hop alive for all these years.

Everyone who claims to be down with Hip Hop is forced to watch Style Wars and Wild Style.

Today's rappers make sure that the forefathers of Hip Hop are living well and all have their kids college is paid for.
