Future Versus Meek Mill: Who’s The Better Rapper? Rory & Mal Start Viral Debate

August 31, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Hip-hop debates over the best rappers, artists, crooners, and lyricists are the lifeblood of the culture in its casual, everyday state. That’s why we love rap podcasts and commentators: we feel like we’re just as relevant in the media conversation, although that’s often a false flag. Nevertheless, thanks to the latest episode of the New Rory & Mal podcast, hip-hop Twitter got a new debate topic to spend an hour or two within: is Future a better rapper than Meek Mill? The titular co-hosts and their colleagues went over a few metrics to determine this, as both MCs display wildly different styles. But they also have enough collaborative history to make this a fitting and appropriate comparison.

For example, Rory suggested that while Meek Mill is probably the better rapper, Future’s music surpasses Meek’s. “You think Future raps better than Meek?” Mal asked one of his co-hosts. “If you put a beat on right now and these n***as start rapping right here, you think Future’s gon’ out-rap Meek? We watched Meek with matted braids on the corners of Philly rap his way to a f***ing private jet. Future don’t rap better than that n***a, man. Not on no f***ing day of the year. Future? He make better songs, he’s a better artist.” Check out reactions to this debate in the replies of the post below.

“I also don’t think Future tries to rap better than Meek Mill,” Rory added. “Like, I just think he makes great music.” “Y’all getting disrespectful,” Mal added. “See, now I know why Meek gon’ slap the s**t out of some of y’all when he see y’all.” “I understand why he’s so mad on the Internet. They’re playing with his name,” Rory posited. “No, Meek gon’ slap the s**t of of some [of you],” Mal responded. “He going back to jail, I’ma just say it. Meek’s getting ready to catch a charge. He catching a charge! ‘Cause y’all n***as is getting disrespectful coming into the holidays.”

Joe Budden Causes Intense Debate After Putting Latto Over Doja Cat

August 13, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Some hip-hop debates are more difficult than others, and especially when you’re talking about two wildly different artists, they can become quite contentious. Moreover, this is what Joe Budden provoked on his most recent self-titled podcast episode when he said that Latto is a better rapper than Doja Cat. Of course, this inspired a whole lot of fan reactions and debates, many of which you can see in the replies of the post below. Regardless of how many Doja fans disagreed with him and how happy Big Mama fans were to see her get her flowers, it’s very hard to compare both artists.

“Latto is ill,” Joe Budden’s comments began. “I might have to have her [at] number two. Nicki is number one for me. I think Latto would give Doja a long night. She can’t rap like that. If I’m just talking about rapping, Doja can pack it up if Latto walk in the studio with her notebook. I love Cardi but I mean, there’s the [ghostwriting] rumors so I’ll leave that alone. Latto has confirmed that to be her pen. She really loves hip-hop, like she’s one of those girls.

Joe Budden has previously interviewed Latto on his podcast, with her talking about her label trying to stop her from responding to hate all the way back in 2022. “There’s just so much stuff that I’m going through right now that I just didn’t know that people do,” she expressed. “It’s the business stuff that just, like… It’s frustrating you because you can’t speak on certain stuff. They tell you to shut the f**k up but it’s, like, this is what I’m going through. B***h, I don’t want to shut the f**k up.”

As for Doja Cat, Joe Budden hasn’t spoken too much about her before, with him having this to say after Summer Walker called Doja out over winning all the R&B-related Billboard Music Awards in 2022. “Doja’s at the dinners somewhere, with the agency, with the right team, with the right agency, rubbing the right elbows. That’s what’s going on,” he remarked. “Summer knows that as well, but I’m with her. She has been at the top of her field in R&B, but boy, does it suck now that I have to compete with the Swiss army knife that is doing R&B and a little more.”

Charleston White Picks Drake Over Kendrick Lamar As A “Way Better” Rapper

June 27, 2024 by newhiphopnews

Some people are very tired of the Drake and Kendrick Lamar beef, but others are just getting around to commenting on it. Of course, debate over this clash of the titans has raged heavily online even before things really took a turn with the “Like That” verse and the ensuing lyrical chaos. Moreover, fans continue to argue for their winner across different metrics, and one of the Internet’s most controversial and incendiary cultural commentators threw his hat into the ring. During a recent interview with Say Cheese!, Charleston White explained why he thinks the 6ix God is a more worthy MC than Mr. Morale.

“They ain’t going nowhere,” Charleston White said of the Los Angeles artists that Kendrick Lamar brought out at his “Pop Out” concert. “Ain’t nobody finna listen to no bunch of up-and-coming L.A. artists but L.A. people in their neighborhood. Don’t nobody want to hear that s**t. N***a, Kendrick, n***a, listen. Let me just say this: Drake way better. N***a, Drake way better rapping.

“N***a, I know Drake songs,” Charleston White continued. “I ain’t never heard a n***a in Texas pull up bumping Kendrick’s s**t, nothing! N***a, we like -– as much as I don’t like that n***a. N***a, you heard me who I -– come on, my n***a. I was just going against the grain. But come on, let’s be fair and clear. Man, Kendrick can’t compare. Unless you like twisting your fingers up like the r***rded people. That’s the only way you gon’ like Kendrick. You got to be r***rded [mocking gang signs]. Sensible people don’t gravitate to that bulls**t.

“So so what he gave these up-and-coming artists a spotlight for the day?” Charleston White concluded. “Most of them will be dead by tomorrow, due to the gang politics. California, Compton, or whatever you want to call it. Homie, it’s not vibrant. So why would you go shoot something where… N***a, nothing grows here, everything dies.” It’s clear that there are still many angles through which to analyze this Kendrick Lamar and Drake beef. But to outright diminish either artist’s efforts in this battle or their career achievements seems like a short-sighted endeavor.

Bebe Rexha Says Nicki Minaj Is Better Than Cardi B, Which Sends In A Frenzy

November 13, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Of the longest-running debates, the rap community has been Nicki Minaj versus Cardi B. For most music fans, these types of conversations never get stale. However, it seems a good amount of people are sick of this battle between the two femcees from New York. To be quite frank, it is a bit of an unfair comparison. Nicki has been in the game for far longer than Cardi. That also leads her to be more influential by default as well. There are so many female rappers who credit Queen Nicki as one of their biggest inspirations. Pop star Bebe Rexha seems to agree with that same sentiment.

Bebe, from New York as well, has seen both artists at their highest respective powers. Additionally, she has had the pleasure of working with both ladies. Her and Nicki’s biggest track came in a collaboration with David Guetta on “Hey Mama.” As for Cardi, these two worked together on “Girls,” which found its way on to Rita Ora’s 2018 record, Phoenix.

Clearly, she knows a thing or two about this age-old question. On a recent IG live tracked down by TMZ Hip-Hop, Bebe and her stylist discussed who they thought was better and they both landed on Nicki, respectfully. The determining factors for them were the fact that “Nicki writes her own s***,” and longevity, among others, put her over the top of Cardi. Well, fans were not too pleased, calling Bebe out for pitting them against each other.

What are your initial thoughts on Bebe Rexha’s answer on who is better between Nicki Minaj and Cardi B? Who do you prefer in this debate? Will this question ever stop being asked?

Cam’ron And Ma$e Choose DMX Over Tupac As The Better Rapper, Fans Weigh In

November 13, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Pitting rappers against each other and debating who is better, creates a fun discussion. There are so many angles and points you can make for each artist. The conversations can go on for hours, and some can go on for years. Over the course of the 50-year history of the genre, so many legendary names are a part of these sometimes heated arguments. Kanye West versus Drake, Future and Young Thug, and Eminem versus Jay-Z are just a few. Another one that may be closer than you think is Tupac and DMX. Usually ‘Pac and Biggie are thrown into the ring together. Cam’ron and Ma$e were recently asked who they would choose between two legends from the East Coast.

Million Dollaz Worth of Game, the podcast hosted by Gillie Da Kid and Wallo, had the hosts of It Is What It Is on, according to AllHipHop. As we said, this conversation is much closer than some may initially think. Both of them have a global and cultural impact that is unmatched. That is why the pressure was sort of high for Cam’ron to pick someone. As we also said, these conversations can turn ugly in an instant. However, both eventually went on to select the “X Gon’ Give It To Ya” rapper.

Cam’ron & Ma$e Get The Debate Rolling

Essentially, both of them came to the same conclusion. That being that people would go insane at his shows and that they could easily recite his tracks word for word. Cam’ron also had some bias because he had the opportunity to work with DMX before his untimely passing. Some were in agreeance with the two show hosts, while some others respectfully disagreed. One person replied, “X is really one of, if not the most underrated under-appreciated rappers all time. And as a performer he’s legendary But Pac is generational man Kids in Gaza know Pac.” Of course, Cam and Ma$e highly respect ‘Pac, but for them, it came down to personal experience and actually getting to be around X.

What are your initial thoughts on Cam’ron and Ma$e picking DMX over Tupac as the better rapper? Who do you prefer in this debate? What is your favorite DMX song and which is your favorite of Tupac’s? We would like to know what you have to say about all of this. With that in mind, be sure to leave all of your hottest takes in the comments section below.

Our continued thoughts and prayers go out to the family and friends of Tupac and DMX.
