1. Scarface has had the greatest longevity than any other rapper? Yes.
2. Scarface is a top 8 emcee? Not to me. I understand when people say that he is, though.
3. Who will make a good album first, Jadakiss or Ludacris? I like all (or most) of Luda's albums. Jada's solos are always a huge letdown. Ludacris for sure.
4. Buckwild is a better producer than Madlib? Maybe 8 years ago, not now.
5. The two best rappers from the Hiero camp have always been Casual and Pep Love? I always thought it was Del and Pep Love, but Casual gets props. Those are my top 3.
6. Out of the 17 Too $hort studio albums, his best to date is the '93 release "Get In Where You Fit In?" I don't know, not a huge Too Short fan.
7. You don't buy rap magazines anymore (Source, XXL..)? Never did, but I'm 21 and white so I feel like my opinion on this matter is worthless.
8. Rank these producers from best to worst--Alchemist, DJ Muggs, Q-Tip, Mannie Fresh & Havoc -- Alchemist, Mannie Fresh, Muggs, Havoc, Q-Tip (I really like Tip's beats, I just don't think he's made as many dope beats as these guys... unless you get into the whole debate of him really producing most of the tribe shit, then he would go #1)
9. The only Juice Crew member that shouldn't retire today is Masta Ace? I still think Big Daddy Kane can rock a verse every now and again. His voice is just so dope that someone can ghostwrite a verse for him and he will murder it. Plus, remember that performance at the VH1 awards a few years back? Aside from Kane and Ace though, they are toast.
10. If I said DJ Premier, Pete Rock, RZA, Dr. Dre & Marley Marl made up the 5 best producers of all-time would you agree? If not, list your five. That would be my top five... maybe throw Ali Shaheed Muhammed in as #6? But yeah, solid list.

Yes.1. Scarface has had the greatest longevity than any other rapper?
Top _ emcee lists are gay but he's definately one of the best.2. Scarface is a top 8 emcee?
Both of these guys have made decent albums.3. Who will make a good album first, Jadakiss or Ludacris?
Whoa >>>>> Mablib4. Buckwild is a better producer than Madlib?

I prefer Life Is..Too $hort, personally.6. Out of the 17 Too $hort studio albums, his best to date is the '93 release "Get In Where You Fit In?"
Flip through the Source, occasionally buy XXL, always buy Murder Dog and Hip Hop Connection.7. You don't buy rap magazines anymore (Source, XXL..)?
1. Q Tip8. Rank these producers from best to worst--Alchemist, DJ Muggs, Q-Tip, Mannie Fresh & Havoc
2. Mannie Fresh
3. Alchemist
4. Havoc
5. Muggs
They should all be retired other than maybe one cameo verse every couple of years on a suitable song.9. The only Juice Crew member that shouldn't retire today is Masta Ace?
Oh, i dunno.10. If I said DJ Premier, Pete Rock, RZA, Dr. Dre & Marley Marl made up the 5 best producers of all-time would you agree? If not, list your five.
1. Scarface has had the greatest longevity than any other rapper?

he wouldnt make my list but i wouldnt fault anyone for making that arguement
3. Who will make a good album first, Jadakiss or Ludacris?
neither. luda will come closer though
4. Buckwild is a better producer than Madlib?

arent they all pretty much retired anyway? personally i like slaughterhouse era masta ace best but he seems to be doing his thing. i think most old rappers like old metal groups and rock bands should only play do review shows.
10. If I said DJ Premier, Pete Rock, RZA, Dr. Dre & Marley Marl made up the 5 best producers of all-time would you agree? If not, list your five.

I don't know if its cuz you're only 21 or from

The fact you would put Ali in you top 5-6 list but went on to say just moments earlier that Tip didn't have enough beats to his credit is simply mind numbing.

Philaflava wrote:1. Scarface has had the greatest longevity than any other rapper?
Yeah it appears so. He puts up an excellent GOAT argument at this point, but most of this board would never accept him as such.
2. Scarface is a top 8 emcee?
I don't think you can have him lower than top 5, for me it's either 1 or 2 depending on my mood that day.
3. Who will make a good album first, Jadakiss or Ludacris?
They both already have in my opinion, but I think Luda makes better albums than Kiss generally, and even his always have a fair amount of filler. Guess it just depends how you define "good." For me an album with 6-8 good tracks is good. 10 and above and you start to make an argument for great.
4. Buckwild is a better producer than Madlib?
Umm. No shit. What's that question mark for?
5. The two best rappers from the Hiero camp have always been Casual and Pep Love?
I never really listened to Pep like that so I dunno. I've heard good things about him. Casual was/is dope though.
6. Out of the 17 Too $hort studio albums, his best to date is the '93 release "Get In Where You Fit In?"
Maybe. I dont' know I haven't listened to all of them. I will say his work pre-97-98 is much better than his more recent stuff IMO.
7. You don't buy rap magazines anymore (Source, XXL..)?
Yeah not really, probably haven't bought a source in 5-8 years at least, and XXL maybe 2 years. Most of the good stuff is online now anyway so whatever.
8. Rank these producers from best to worst--Alchemist, DJ Muggs, Q-Tip, Mannie Fresh & Havoc
Mannie Fresh, Alchemist, Havoc, Muggs (geez, that sounds horrible... fuck it. They're all great though, and Hav was the best at one point as was Muggs... nowadays though that's the order I'd put their stuff in.)
9. The only Juice Crew member that shouldn't retire today is Masta Ace?
Nah I'd still like to hear another G Rap album over good production and a Kane album. Doubt either will happen though.
10. If I said DJ Premier, Pete Rock, RZA, Dr. Dre & Marley Marl made up the 5 best producers of all-time would you agree? If not, list your five.
I dunno. That article for Doc Rodriguez has me thinking, as do various things I've read in Brian Coleman books and elsewhere. BUT assuming we accept their catalogs at face value, those are 5 of the top 10. Personally I think I'd put Extra P over Pete Rock probably. But I don't have a big issue with anybody on that list.

2. No but he's up there...tough to judge those kind of things though
3. Ludacris...I was never a big fan of Jadakiss
4. Madlib sucks...Buckwild is a great producer
5. Del??
6. N/A
7. Heck no
8. Havoc, Q-Tip, Muggs, Alchemist, Mannie Fresh
9. Are u kiddin me?...I'd look for a new BDK or Biz or G Rap or Shan record more than Masta Ace
10. Tough to say although I dont think I would put Dre or Marley on that list...replace them with Large Professor and whoever else
Re: Questions #3

I wouldn't argue with that.

Yup

Luda probably.
4. Buckwild is a better producer than Madlib?
Bucwild and it's not even close.
5. The two best rappers from the Hiero camp have always been Casual and Pep Love?
Casual for sure, not sure about Pep Love.

Haven't heard all his albums to comment on that.

2. Maybe. Not in mine though.
3. I think Luda already has made decent albums that are definitely better than Jada's
4. Probably. Madlib has more range and he's more bugged out, but Buckwild got that early to mid 90's heat.
5. Now, yes, but not always- Del used to kill ish more.
6. Not sure. not too familiar with his discography
7. why buy when theres the net
8. Muggs, Alchemist, Havoc, Q-Tip, Fresh
9. As stated above, Kool G Rap is ill- he just needs better beats. i dont mind kane either
10. thats a safe 5. i'd probably agree
Re: Questions #3
1. Scarface has had the greatest longevity than any other rapper?
ehhmmmmm......maybe....u could make that argument and i wouldn't disagree enough to care
2. Scarface is a top 8 emcee?
ditto
3. Who will make a good album first, Jadakiss or Ludacris?
jadakiss....cuz he'll work with the better producers, and if he realizes his days of being a pop star have come and gone and that he'll never have a song more popular than "Why" , and then doens't bother doing the standard mariah carey or riahanna hook or JD song...then i think he could make a really dope album, in theory
4. Buckwild is a better producer than Madlib?
i got em about even
5. The two best rappers from the Hiero camp have always been Casual and Pep Love?
i thought that was obvious...with pep love being a distant second...which is more a big up to casual than a knock on pep love

1. Scarface has had the greatest longevity than any other rapper? it's possible... can't think of of anyone else that's been so consistent (and that's even gotten better as he's aged) off the top of my head
2. Scarface is a top 8 emcee? yup[
3. Who will make a good album first, Jadakiss or Ludacris? Luda; he's done it twice already with his first two albums (especially the second).
4. Buckwild is a better producer than Madlib? uhh Buckwild
5. The two best rappers from the Hiero camp have always been Casual and Pep Love? eh... just haven't cared about these dudes in so many years that I couldn't say. Casual yeah, I guess, but I couldn't name a second fav from Hiero.
6. Out of the 17 Too $hort studio albums, his best to date is the '93 release "Get In Where You Fit In?" not his biggest fan, but from the albums of his i've owned or listened to, yeah
7. You don't buy rap magazines anymore (Source, XXL..)? I'll buy XXL (and Rolling Stone) just for reading material on the transit when I don't have a book
8. Rank these producers from best to worst--Alchemist, DJ Muggs, Q-Tip, Mannie Fresh & Havoc: Q-Tip, The Alchemist, Havoc, DJ Muggs, Mannie Fresh
9. The only Juice Crew member that shouldn't retire today is Masta Ace?I guess... although as much as he gets jocked on here, his recent shit doesn't have all that much reply value to me (minus like three joints on Disposable Arts and "Nostalgia")
10. If I said DJ Premier, Pete Rock, RZA, Dr. Dre & Marley Marl made up the 5 best producers of all-time would you agree? If not, list your five.Marley and a slew of others could fight for that fifth spot, but otherwise, I'd definitely agree

6. Out of the 17 Too $hort studio albums, his best to date is the '93 release "Get In Where You Fit In?" not his biggest fan, but from the albums of his i've owned or listened to, yeah

Re: Questions #3
4. Probably. Madlib has more range [/quote]
"Whoa!" to "I Got A Story To Tell" to "O-Zone" (Original Version) to "Time's Up" to "Stress" to "Neva Die Alone"
to "Like Father, Like Son" is a pretty good range I'd say.

Re: Questions #3
1. Scarface has had the greatest longevity than any other rapper?
not in my book...
2. Scarface is a top 8 emcee?
Again, not in my book...
3. Who will make a good album first, Jadakiss or Ludacris?
I struggle to see either coming good... I prefer Luda, but struggle with his choice in beats...
4. Buckwild is a better producer than Madlib?
Without doubt...
5. The two best rappers from the Hiero camp have always been Casual and Pep Love?
Casual, certainly... Not so sure on Pep though...
6. Out of the 17 Too $hort studio albums, his best to date is the '93 release "Get In Where You Fit In?"
Possibly...
7. You don't buy rap magazines anymore (Source, XXL..)?
False... I cop both the Source and XXL from time to time, depending on who's being featured, and I still buy every issue of HHC and Wax Poetics...
8. Rank these producers from best to worst--Alchemist, DJ Muggs, Q-Tip, Mannie Fresh & Havoc
Q-Tip...
DJ Muggs...
Havoc...
Alchemist...
Mannie Fresh...
9. The only Juice Crew member that shouldn't retire today is Masta Ace?
I'm a big Ace fan, so continue to check for him (look out for his up coming collaboration with Australian group Funkoars), but I am just as keen for any material from Biz Markie (his joint on that Top Shelf album last year was great) or Kane... G Rap's latest let me down, but I'll continue to check for him...
10. If I said DJ Premier, Pete Rock, RZA, Dr. Dre & Marley Marl made up the 5 best producers of all-time would you agree? If not, list your five.
No... I'd replace Rza and Dre... Large Professor would be a definite and the other spot can be fought out between Bomb Squad, Beatnuts, Showbiz, Buckwild, Diamond, Lord Finesse or Prince Paul...

Oh yeah - definitely. I'm not a Madlib hater by any means, but he's not even close.

10. If I said DJ Premier, Pete Rock, RZA, Dr. Dre & Marley Marl made up the 5 best producers of all-time would you agree? If not, list your five.

I believe Big Daddy Kane has another great album in him, he just needs the right producers, Biz is still dope, Craig G still has it, Tragedy can still bring it, Kool G Rap needs top work with DJ Premier more.

10. Pete Rock, RZA, Premier are the three that stay in the top 5, the other two is a rotation on how I feel between Rick Rubin, Bomb Squad, Marley Marl, Biz Markie, and Prince Paul.
