Im not just talking about now but ever. Im a fan of Killah P but he;s rapper who couldn't go Gold even if this was 93' no CD burners or internet DL. He don't have that appeal. OC, A.G., Guru, Puba--these guys got some appeal. KP music is for a certain crowd. Dont get me wrong The Offering was my 2nd favorite album of 2007. Holocaust even got more appeal than KP its just Holo is a dust head who cant get his shit together.

If this was 1996 and KP and Tommy "Megalon" Gunn were on the same label with the same amount of album push theres no doubt Tommy would be a bigger star. KP just got the WU on his side . No disrespect.

i agree KP doesnt have mass appeal, BUT he definitely has more than fucking Holocaust lmao r u serious man...well maybe Holocaust in his Silkworm style would have more appeal but when hes in his Warcloud mode talking about fairies and dragons and butterlfies, KP definitely has more appeal. I havent been able to get into Holocaust since he switched his style up besides a few songs.

Anyway, didnt Heavy Mental go gold?

Heavy Mental had a track appear in the beginning of Ghost Dog I think

That's not saying much, other than it's a dope song on a dope soundtrack.

View From Masada has mass appeal like Gang Starr

What KP talks about in his songs isn't something for mass consumption anyways. Shit ain't dumb enough.

Mass Apeal
KP>Holo

Holo, is an acquired taste. I did enjoy his work with Blue Sky Black Death though, yessir.

You're right, KP isn't a mass appeal type of emcee but I give him props though for sticking with and honing his style.
