Chino had a bright future as an up-and-coming MC, ran afoul of the reigning "king of Rap", and has been relegated to the underground ever since. It happens.

Case in point...

Canabis. LL stopped that dudes career dead in it's tracks. He had to join the army for Christ’s sake
I don't under estimate the hold 2 pac still has over people.
I underestimate the intelligence of people today.

Do you honestly think that today's geenration of rappers like 50 cent know anything about Chino, cause they sure as heck aren'y better than Chino.
And do you think that the audience rap reaches out to (mostly teenagers) will remember anything abuot what CHino said ina previos song?
And do you honestly believe that most teenagers todya that listent or ap pay that much attention to lyrics? hell no.
Case in point, Mike Jones made millions saying his name over and over again.
