I dunno guys, everyone feels like they have that one rapper they connect with. For me it's definitely Kid Cudi. Anyone else? I recognize realiPhoned using Grasscity Mobile
Yeah bro! It feel like im the only one who really feels Cudi, like other people like him but he the only rapper i for real feel. I dig it brother, satellite flight drops next month!Sent from my DROID4 using Grasscity Forum mobile app
I'm gonna play the fuck out of that, haha. But yeah man. I feel like Cudi's story is a little more in his head, like he has problems and stuff. I mean, I do too haha. I'm torn between Down and Out, and Day n' Nite. Those two songs pretty much sum up my life, lol
I'd say Kanye West. By far my favorite hip-hop artist. In my opinion, every album he's put out (except Cruel Summer. Fuck Cruel Summer) is pure gold. Not really an unpopular opinion. I will say that I think the man is a genius, and not just musically. All his crazy rants seems crazy now, but it'll all come together in the end. Whether you like him or not you have to admit that the character he's created is interesting as fuck. Also this is my first post here. Hey everyone. Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum
I like kid cudi's music, he tells a meaningful story through a song that you feel you can relate to. I personally listen to Marshall Mathers alot! feel like I can connect to him deeper, but his new music 2008+ is kinda shit, drifted away from the rap/hiphop and more into the crowd/money style music. His old songs when him and kim were together/just broken up are superb imo, and so is the music he has dedicated to his daughters, especially Hailee(spelling?). ^^bit off topic, sorry Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum
I love Kanye. The reason is because his attitude, so it's not really a legit reason but hoopla. Same with Lil' Wayne, their voices are just mad aggressive. I tried looking at that Guru vid but I guess I can't in my state lol. Is he old school? When I first started listening to hip hop was B.I.G from the 90's and Shwayze. I don't know how far back Shwayze goes thoughiPhoned using Grasscity Mobile

Not humble at allSent from my burner[/quote]I think his behavior gets annoying sometimes, but I think the reason he does it is because almost every album he's put out has gotten universal acclaim. Like he says in Devil in a New Dress, it's "hard to be humble when you're stuntin on the jumbotron." And shit I just realized this was a Cudi thread, I guess when I posted I forgot about the title and just saw the thing about certain rappers connecting with you. Sorry for that!Sent from my iPhone using Grasscity Forum
Conversations flow man. In my opinion, I think it'd be hard not to be so cocky in the spot he's in. I totally would haha. iPhoned using Grasscity Mobile
Man on the Moon is my favorite by him, I also like A Kid Named Cudi because of it's a little older iPhoned using Grasscity Mobile
Blu is my favorite rapper. I love his topics. He seems connected to the higher realm of expanded consciousness. I think I'd have a real good day smokin' blunts with him. Also when Exile is DJing it just sounds wonderful in my head. Below the Heavens is an amazing Hip Hop masterpiece. All his stuff is great though. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2uLjj81rPXI "With books dropping knowledge on lies that once covered us Like we ain't land on Plymouth Rock God summoned us Block smugglers rise up from under the blue skies Sunshine, what a day to take a walk in the rain Wash the thoughts on your brain dry Get lost for a change" I also really dig Del tha Funkee Homosapien. He just seems like a cool guy. He rides that line between serious/ and just chillin. His albums always have dope samples too...Jazz and Funk. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=So_7WE1Yh1o I mean Del is so chill if you don't like him leave me be son.
