i guess i am a typical eighties baby. so i suppose a nineties baby (you) is actually just a self-obsessed, cynical and jaded asshole willing to fuck anyone for a buck? sounds like a whore down on hollywood and vine to me… oh and if any artist reads this, beware sickamore as he obviously dont give a fuck aboutcha (saigon, LB, etc…)!

Everything this nigga said is true IM A 80′s baby hoe

lol..

80′s baby!

Praising the mediocre MC Lil Wayne as the top 5 MC (WuTang alone has 5 dudes better then this bitch-made), while simultaneously shitting on Tribe makes you a MORON and IDIOT, whether you were born in 1968 or 1993 or anywhere in between, WTF.

Objective music fans can appreciate good music regardless of when it was made.

As far as record sales don’t matter being “losers”, then I suppose Sickamores favorite “top 5 all time” “musicians” must be Vanilla Ice, Hammer, Britney Spears, Backstreet Boys (enache), & Puff Biatch. All of these dudes went like “diamond” over 10M sold despite having little or no talent

Nice image. I may or may not be an 80′s Baby, not really sure yet.

FUCK SICKAMORE AND FUCK 80′S, LIL WAYNE AIN’T TOP FIVE

Sickamore actually has a signed and framed Vanilla Ice poster in his office. I’ve seen it.

I love the Native Tongues.Midinite Marauders is one of the best ever.but your crazy is you dont think Wayne is top 5 RIGHT NOW.if you feel that way, then theres no way you heard dedication 2.(Georgia Bush,come on…)

and i dont think sickamore doesnt care about artistic integrity (please dont prove me wrong son), its just that he recognizes the importance of it AND record sales in maintaing an artist’s career these days.

oh, and sales do matter, purists. they might not automatically make a rapper great, but don’t kid yourselves- they matter like a muhfucka. and even your favorite underselling artist knows it.

Weezy is top 5 FOR SURE, but you def do look like a vampire version of Nelly. Que lastima… you gotta respect the past a lil’ bit to embrace the future Sick!

Hell yea, most of that shit true. Dont forget about TRICKING THEM HOES either. You know them older niggas love doing that.

Ur the same dude that keeps proppin Cheezy, er, Jeezy as King of N.Y. — HUH?!?!

SICK, U mean 2 tell us that U own a myspace page w/o ur pic or vice versa – no wonder U dont get any action!

The fact that Wayne has failed to respond to Gillie Da Kid’s ghost writing accusations in battle form immediately disqualifies him from top 5 discussion. Lil’ Wayne has got to beat Gillie or for the rest career he’s gonna have an asterisk right next to his name.

“Eauhellzgnaw, I would hope that you aren’t under the impression that everyone born in the 80s and 90s is completely ignorant when it comes to rap.”

Of course not. I know some younger heads who aren’t like this. However, I think it’s very easy for 80s and 90s kids to fall into blissful ignorance. I think it’s somehwat of a generational thing and is not at all limited to music; for example, younger movie heads don’t know shit about older movies either, unless it’s “The Godfather” or “Scarface.”

yo sick, you killed em with this one,..i mean better than the blog, is the comments from these washed up members only wearin fossils..NEWSFLASH!!…”TRIBE AIN’T RELEVANT NO MORE”..at least not outside the constructs of a T.I. hook,…but on the real, who the fuck is Gillie, nigga been tryin since like ’96 and ain’t did shit, now he claims he got paid but still wanna shit on weezy, for what??, as a ploy to get another deal, sick don’t do it, MAJOR FIGGA that nigga is not.

Born in ’77
Yes to #’s: 2, 3(sort of, cuz he’s just not a good rapper), 4(c’mon, common knowledge,no?), 5(I have a cell phone), 7 (3 of them), 12(as long as it’s a dope album), 15(I have a job), 20(I was in 8th grade, I didn’t get a chance to sneak in)

Glad I’m not an 80′s baby, y’all sound ignorant as fuck!

Ahhhh see what he has to say on the next 3.

Yes, it is a mentality. One that is specific to the eighties. Its called CRACK BABY. you are the first of a generation of crack head babies. 80′s baby is a POLITE way of calling youself a CRACKHEAD, but by reading your reasons you have listed(oh i bet it gets even better tomorrow in your quest to blog continually like bol doesnt already do that eight times too much a day, right?) the reasons any non-crackhead would be ashamed to revel in, it is obvious you smoke crack. YEAH!!! LETS REVEL IN THE POWER OF THE FORMATIVE SUBSTANCE OF OUR GENERATION!! rock rock on!!

PART ONE of TWO

You are a crackhead..err EIGHTIES BABY IF

1) You watch FIGHT KLUB on MTV and enjoy it.

2) The idea of a rapper who doesn’t sell drugs is lame and soft, and by default a “backpacker” or a “concious rapper”.

3) You really think that Rick Ross has
connections to Bogota.

4) Your favorite artists have all appeared on Wild N Out

5) Ringtones are a legitimate “hustle”

6) You can’t knock the hustle, and any form of non-positive feedback, even if it is constructive criticism is either jealousy or hating.

7) You admire Dame Dash’s suave business skills, and the fact that he hangs out with Mick Jagger’s daughter impresses you.

8) The first mixtape you ever bought was in fact, not a tape, and also did not involve any sort of mixing, just downloaded songs put in a random order.

9) You have bought crunk juice, sizzurp or pimp juice, but not as a joke or as a move of irony, but because you were either thirsty, or up all night partying and the “energy” in the drink could help you stay awake the next day at work.

10) Being rude, obnoxious, ignorant, disrespectful and bratty are all considered good qaulities that merit encouragement and deserve to be flaunted and championed.

11) You think that you can sell dope forever.

12) You say things like “I don’t hear a single”

13) You think that Lil Wayne (or any artist with a Lil or Young in front) is a legitimate artist of the highest caliber with poignant and relevant things to tell people.

14) MTV cribs is your favorite show.

15) You “own”, “run” or are the “CEO” of a small side hustle company, but fail to realize that you are the only one who believes in the “vision” of that small side “hustle” company as being an actual legitimate organization of real business, not just an imaginary, vanity pipe dream with no office or staff.

16) You can’t even go to the grocery store without some ones thats clean and a shirt with a team.

17) You feel naked without an ipod.

18) You’re too young to remember NWA and when Fifty Cent is repackaged as a solo version of NWA you really do believe he is the future.

19) You do not think Kanye West is confused.

20) You saw a Nick Cannon movie in the theatres and enjoyed it.

21) You bought 50 cents book and treated it as if it were a textbook and contained information that would help you succeed in life.

22) A woman with dark skin or nappy hair is unattractive.

23) You think biting is cool, but “swagger-jacking” isn’t cool.

24) Your favorite rapper has some sort of catchphrase or slogan that they repeat on every song.

25) Your favorite producer yells his name at the beginning of every song he does for brand recognition.

26) The “streets” dictate your opinion and choices in life, and you reference the “streets” as if it were an actual nation or country, and you were some sort of diplomat or foriegn dignitary who must consider every move with concern over how the “streets” will react, as if the “streets” were a superpower nation.

27) Ghostwriting is okay for mcs as long as they write checks

28) You own a pimp cup that you made with a bedazzler.

29) You are totally unaware of any mc from a period before 1997 whom your favorite mc stole their entire style from, and any beat from that time period is fair game for modern producers to reuse.

30) You have more than four shirts that depict either Biggie, Pac or Scarface.

31) You have more money on your wrist than in your bank account.

32) You follow the ten crack commandments like God had dictated them to Moses, even though you do not sell crack.

33) You think rap, basket ball and crackrock are the only viable ways to ever make it in the world.

34) A live show is not really as important as a video to you.

35) Your artist considers a strip club as an audience to keep in mind when making a song.

36) You don’t know who prince dejour, big lez or joe clair are so you think Mad linx is a good host.

37) You consider freestyle fridays a good opportunity for an artist to create a buzz or gain exposure.

38) You only know Xzibit for being the host of Pimp My ride.

39) Paul Wall is your favorite White Rapper.

40) You relate to Terrance Howards character in Hustle and Flow

Gillie said himself on xxl he never wrote anything for Wayne. And Wayne is using Gillies flow, (and using it better than Gillie does) but Jay-z Qoutes B.I.G line for every chance he gets and is still heralded as the best rapper alive. If you don’t think Wayne is TOP FIVE OUT RIGHT NOW then you’re fooling yourself.

82′ and Midnight Marauders is the my fave album ever! Stop dissing tribe

I guess BABYDICK’s career will be over in a few years and replaced by a nintees’ baby.

I guess that one comment struck a nerve since it was REMOVED!!! fucking crackhead loser. go bakc to bedazzling your pimp cup young’n

Sup Everybody classic post by Sick had me laughing at some of the reasons. I agree with the homie man where the Baseball refrences at ? lol
I am coming live from the MGM in Las Vegas via th homie K’s laptop we came out to watch the Rahman vs Maskayev and see how Oleg pulled the stunner Had me shocked, Also good to see my homie Vanes “The Nightmare” Martirosyan win on the undercard, it was great atmosphere to catch my first fight. Now if your asking what the hell has this to do with music and th blog? Well a real 80′s baby does it big like this and I had to throw in some sports refrences, Oh ya and cop the E White & Meech Wells Dow Jones Whiteout Mixtape E White is back with a force more on that later, West Coast !

Lil Wayne is nice and all. BUT, last time I recalled, Nas, Ghostface, Bun B, Scarface, Eminem, ‘Kiss, Killer Mike, Joe Budden, T.I., Beanie Siegel, Black Thought, and Common were still rapping. And, don’t get it twisted Hova is still rapping as well…And for the sheer fact of the Dipset “movement” am I glad that I am not an 80′s baby. This is an ill blog but you smoking that good powder by dissing Tribe, homie.

rename that Crap “80 reason why your not a late 80′s babies”

TESTICLES OF A BABYDICK BABY.

Following this blogs logic, BABYDICK only has about 3 years left in his career before this Ninty’s MAN takes over his shit!

First, how is this dude allowed to run a column? Your writing skills are about as horrible as your mixtapes (This is the dude who did an exclusive w/ dylan from da band). Second an 80′s baby is someone born from early to mid 80′s and was actually a child during those years. You are making double negetives andshit with your list. Does elliot wilson actually pay these guys like Sick and Drama? Save your change. Most retarded post ever. Jeezy sucks, tribe rules, record sales obviously dont matter when it comes to a dudes lyrical skill cause if it did pharoah monch would be multi plat. Drama I hope youre a college grad cause if your not, I have a feeling you’re gonna be in a tight spot in a couple years. Dude talk like he makes Bill Gates money. natch

#12 is some stupid ass shit. I’m a loser because I DON’T care about someone elses paper? Why should I care about soundscan numbers? I played in a park filled with crack vials, I can call myself an 80s baby. Using your definition would be insulting.

Since 1987…
