Swizz Beatz Gauges DMX's Potential For A Comeback

All this hip hop illuminati bullshit must be making all those real illuminati roll over in their graves. Fucking embarrassing.

illuminati?really?how old are you?..9?indiana jones magical hiphop society shit lol get the fuck outta here!!

yeah things have changed.gangsta rap isnt getting air time.thats the facts.artists have to be pop as hell or plain fuckin weird to get any play.hip hop is dead.underground acts keep it fresh.no majors.little kids who never lived through the greatest era of rap consider these last few years the pinnacle of hiphop.slice your throat with a Supreme Clientele CD.

Deezy, if u don't mind, how old are you? I am just repeating here, but this is X's life we are talking about here. This is not just about music. We've seen this movie before and its getting old. For the past ten years, it has been the same. X is supposed to drop a hot album, but he goes to jail over some DUMB EEESH. After the 15 millionth time, do you really think X is gonna come back and "give it to you" He is done. Not to say he is not capable of dropping something hot, but the industry sucks. Once radio is done with you, they are done. At this point, I don't see him getting radio love. Also, as I mentioned in other posts, because of his propensity for getting into trouble, I don't see a major label taking a chance on him, unless he wants to sign for for free. So with no machine behind him and radio giving him the brush off, how do you expect he is going to make it? He can and should drop independent, hopefully doing a deal that works for him financially and if he can drop three albums over the next three years and sell 100k units a piece as well as go on some serious tour here and in Europe, he can hopefully bank 5 million after taxes and if he has (I pray to God) given up the drugs, he can save that and be set for life. This is about a whole lot more than music. If his music did mean something to you and you like the guy, you should care about the direction his life is taking. And as a hip hop lover, you should care that another mofo made (in X's case) 10 kids that we know he is not taking care off, when he was in a position to be a father - and I'm not just talking money. So yes, X has wasted his life and when he comes out, he needs to be thinking about a whole lot more than being hot on the streets.

Fire records? last time this nigga dropped something hot was 2001. That's 10 years dumbshit aint no coming back from that. And even if it was, Swizz beats aint gonna be the one to bring him back.

Think like an adult here; money ain't the solution to his problem, and it's a serious problem he needs help with. And when a man's life is the issue then no, it's more than music.

how the fuck do you think he's going to support his kids, he's a rapper dumbshit. what he needs to do is get out and drop some fire records like hes been doing his entire career. all you people focus on his 10 kids or his drug problems. this is about music.

I'm sure you did all of these things in reality. Douche. Quit playing so much GTA

Just another moron talking bullshit about 'real hip hop.' Apart from monch, cole would shit on anyone you named and despite Drake being a commercial artist who makes corny music, emcee skills alone he would take most of them too. Stop being so narrow minded and start judging emcees on their skill rather than their perception in underground circles.

asher roth? papoose? papoose was sick and never dropped he now makes wack songs n misses his wife in jail who picks him up and body slams him. beans was hard but he fell off and now just fat and catn hack it. pharoe and az r still hot in my book. and charles hamilton wears pick like a fag and checks himself into mental hospitals, his raps r to complex for himself he has no idea what hes sayin. J cole is lyrical and a good producer, so he made one comercial, i recall jay-z did hundereds of pop songs, but he still considered the goat. j coles's mixtapes r hotter than any rappers albums! get off his dick

J Cole CAN rap, what what the hell is up with Work Out. His flow sucks, the lyrics sucks and he just plain sounds like an amateur. Making a song for radio does not mean it needs to sound like crap

i agree asher roth is underated and cole is overated asher is better!!

You saying Asher Roth is real Hip Hop but J. Cole is not? GTFO

As dope as j.cole thinks he is......he still can't really rap that good

Asher Roth seriously? J. Cole go in son and i garuntee he would shit on Roth.
