Canibus (hip-hop, rap, album, fan, Eminem)

ThoughtOfMind · 03-01-2007, 10:13 PM

I'm not a big fan of rap but one artist that does catch my attention is Canibus.
If you have heard Rip The Jacker then you know what I'm talking about.
Poet Laureate II is one of the most intelligent rap songs that haven ever graced my ears.

Give that album a listen if you already haven't and you may be pleasantly surprised.

Canibitch sucks, he might be the co7kiest rapper I've ever heard and that's really saying something.

CANIBUS IS one of my inspirrations.

He is a good writer.

Eminem ghost wrote jack the ripper strikes bck. that LL did.

Canibus tore up LL in 2nd round K.O.

I'll giv you that, he is a good writer, but like, when I said I like Bushwick Bill in another thread cuz he sounds pissed off, he's pissed about valid things, like war, or the gov. Canibus sounds pissed off, but more at himself, which he actually talks about in some of his songs

He's frustrated that he can't garner the kind of recognition that he (and tons of hip-hop fans) feels he deserves. And before you discount him for not being focused on real issues like war etc...just know that he fought in Iraq. Besides, Canibus isn't always angry, he just has an agressive delivery.

the funny thing is he could have been wildly successful if he wasn't so co*ky and went out of his way to say he was better than LL Cool J on the song LL was nice enough to let him rap on, and his remake of Eminem's Stan where he meets a suicidal fan and helps him, it's a nice sentiment, but does anyone actually buy that he would do that?

I've only heard "Mic Club: The Cirriculum" and "Rip The Jacker", but I thought both were great.
