100 Greastest Nominee Day 51 (C)

Murs

Big Murs Fan but i had to vote neither right now. He's not even my favorite Living Legend and i'm fairly new to his music so it wouldn't make much sense for me to call him a top 100 artist. However, I've heard "End of The Beginning", "Murs For Pres", "Grand Caravan to the Rim Of The World", "Classic", and "Almost Famous" and they are all dope albums. I need to listen to more of his solos and the Felt albums and i might have a better idea.

I want to apologize to Pounds and the 4 other Murs fans in the world, but he just doesn't make my top 100. I really dig the Murs albums that i own, but none of them are great to me(although Sweet Lord comes close). He's a fun MC, but there are probably at least 100 artists that I like more.

He wouldn't have gotten a major deal had he only had 4 fans...lol...no need to apologize though.

Top 100 for me. I own all his albums and all his collaborative albums (which is a ton of material) and listen to him quite frequently. Objectively, he is not a top 100 rhymer, but he makes very good albums IMO. Once again, I vote by how much I play the albums by an artist. So Murs definitely gets top 100 from me.

LMAO.. good one Terry.

Murs is cool for what he does... definitely not top 100 though...

As a huge Murs fan, I know...dude is not top 100.

Neither easily

Neither. No business being in the top 100.

Neither, he doesn't really have the skill and I'm not a big fan of his music.

I don't know enough about him to vote.

Props to you KJ.

im gonna vote neither....i like Murs but overall i dont think he makes it over some of these other guys, he puts on a great live show though, funny as hell

Well, just for the hell of it, I'll throw my Murs ranking out there since I'm one of the two that voted top 100:

Murs:
F'Real (3.5 stars)
Good Music (4 stars)
Murs Rules The World (4.25 stars)
Varsity Blues (4 stars)
End of the Beginning (5 stars)
Murs 3:16 (9th Edition) (4 stars)
Murray's Revenge (3 stars)
Murs For President (4.5 stars)

3 Melancholy Gypsys (Murs, Scarub & Eligh):
Gypsys Luck (4 stars)
Grand Caravan To The Rim Of The World (5 stars)

Felt (Murs & Slug):
Felt 1 (3.75 stars)
Felt 2 (4.5 stars)

So there's my case. Plus, he's on every collective Living Legends album, which their are about 12 of. He's always laying it down on guest spots too.

how could you forget Sweet Lord?

LMAO!! You're right. How could I? So much material...

Sweet Lord (4.5 stars)

Definitely my favorite Murs/9th project.

Funny part is, I think I own about as many Murs records as I do CDs. lol

I really need to get that 3MG's.

I'm with Pounds on this one..... Murs is an anomaly when it comes to what a "great" MC is....

I don't expect Murs to make the top 100, but he makes it in my opinion. Murs is a personal favorite of mine and his catalog is very solid, as alan pointed out. He's a good lyricist and I think he's put in enough quality work to be just in the top 100.

I love me some Murs. Top 100 in the very least. The voice is one of the most recognizable ones in the game and the storytelling is always a great painted picture. Murs 3:16 is a bonified classic. Sweet Lord is a banger as well.

lol...someone voted top 50....lol.

Nice...Murs getting some votes.
