Kid Rappers

Guest

All the talk about Jamal had me thinking... what is your favorite "kid" rapper and respective album? Shyheim? Jamal? Lil' Soldiers? Bow Wow?

Subject: Re: Kid Rappers Wed 27 Oct 2010, 11:07 am

Da Youngsta's. Their four albums are ridiculously good, mostly because of the producers involved--Marley Marl, Pete Rock, K-Def, Havoc..."The Aftermath" and especially "No Mercy" are must-listens.

Would BG's early albums count as a kid rapper?

Guest

Da Youngstas were my fav kid act, and The Aftermath is my favorite album by them. No Mercy is pretty dope too.

Lil Wayne Tha Block Is Hot. He just started cursing lol

Guest

Illegal "Untold Truth" off the top of my head. One of the few kid grps I could take semi seriously.

I haven't heard any Youngsta albums, but I always liked their singles. May just have missed that vote becaue the shit may sound real silly to me now.

Guest

I would definitely count BG

Young Seb - Y.S. Tha Thizz Kid. Whole disc goes hard in the paint, favorite track is probably Hear Dat Beat.

BG has some good stuff when he was young. But one of my favorites has to be A+. Latch Key Child has a bunch of great songs and great features.

Subject: Re: Kid Rappers Wed 27 Oct 2010, 5:01 pm

^^^^Good call. Whole album bangs. Can't say so much of "Hempstead High" though.

Subject: Re: Kid Rappers Wed 27 Oct 2010, 6:32 pm

Illegal, then Da Youngstaz, then A+

Subject: Re: Kid Rappers Wed 27 Oct 2010, 6:46 pm

BG - Its All On U...how old was he then? Wayne would have bee my other pick, he would have been 15, I think.

17 and under? Radio, probably, then.

Guest

Guest

You talking to me? lol...

I know all that, I mistakenly clicked quote and thought I was editing. Partially because I'm using a tiny ass 14" CRT monitor with the resolution on 800x600. I have to scroll all around this bitch just to read a post...lol. I need a new monitor, obviously...

Guest

I've gotta say Shyhiem's debut and LL's Radio were dope! Today's kid rappers can't even begin to touch these albums.

Every kid rapper is overrated. Kid rappers get a lot of help. It like someone snatches up these kids and say "Imma make you a star" Grown men must grind to the bone to get noticed. Not saying their ain't no tight kid albums out there--theres a slew of them.
