@@sanelempanza6247 Crazy run I miss the mixtape era so many good ass tapes u had Fab, Cole - truly yours, Dom Kennedy had some shit, Ross/MMG, Wiz Khalifa Taylor Allderdice and ETC but them the ones I listen too by Bible basically all fire tapes. I feel like the mixtape era gave artists like Fab free creativity. Probably why he don't drop shit like that no more
@josephgreen7984 I feel that too bro. But I mean as far as Melo not winning a chip, and Fab not winning a grammy. But they still GOATS. Fab is in my top 10. Melo is in my top 15. So it’s just mad similarities bro.

I’m growing up my daddy planted a seed, my momma watered me with a plan to succeed (seed), I was that kid in the ghetto hand fulls of seeds, but I’m hair (here) now and I don’t plan to recede (seed)… Word play king!!!!!
Fabolous Sport freestyling in the radio when he bodied N.O.R.E and u can hear N.O.R.E keep saying yooo to try and fuck up his flow or get his turn. CLASSIC RADIO SHIIT
same here breh, i was one of those that skipped school on sept 11 to cop Fab's debut along with Hov's. It was one of those "Lemme give this new cat a chance" and been a fan since.
I think Fab might actually be the Melo of the game! HOF career, his fans love, everyone respects him, etc may not get mentioned in the goat talk by alot but everyone respects him
I know right. Diddy don't miss a beat when it comes to business. Trademarking shit is prob second nature for him in the entertainment world. Shame that he turned out to be batshit crazy lmao
I remember being in school looking at fabs clothes and kicks n going home and bugging the hell out on my aunt to cop me the New Jersey or kicks nba jackets fab was really a trendsetter back in my high school days he’s a legend in every aspect of the word
Big difference from showing movement & kids listening to lyrics that can be caught on. Respect to Fab cause his voice & bars are generational. Melo is a true pro. Vets in the game!
Great interview Fab has great prospective & he’s very smart & just chill always being himself in interviews great questions especially the graffiti I hadn’t heard no one ask him that in years & niggas kept it real in this interview 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Fabulous is on the same level as drake when it comes to giving people punchline captions for social media posts..dude has always been so clever with his words/penmanship 🔥🔥👌
Bro Today Is An AMAZING day… my Favorite Hooper & Favorite Artist chatting for a hr 30. Both these dudes coool as hell. One day imma meet ya both man niceeeeeee 🐐
all that early dessert storm shyt like i think ya'll know, keeping it gangsta ghetto fabolous, to all the crazy collab joints with lloyd banks and the lox, to all those classic soul tape joints young og, louis vuttion with j cole.. to all the recent classics like the rich hustle with jim jones...Fab really deserve his flowers and should be in the goat convo, real lyricist never takes a 16 off never takes a bar off!
"Say what’s on your heart if you’re real Cause the scars you can’t see be the hardest to heal... & I used to chase money, now I have it brought Cus you can only chase something that you haven’t caught"....Thats not love 🎶 🔥 Him & Wayne always been like Kobe & LeBron of the Mixtapes and bars period.
G.O.A.T in my book coming from BedStuy 2 blocks from Brevoort! Great to hear him starting to do more interviews!! #1 inspiration to be an M.C. that puts thpught into their artistry. 💯💯
Still listening to a lot of Soul Tape, Summertime Shootout, and Losos way 😂😂😂

also there is no competition mixtapes
FAB is one the most underrated rappers of all time. Man is a GOAT.
Definitely not underrated real fans know how valuable Fab is to this rap shit!
Its crazy to me cause I always said Fab is the Melo of rap. Full circle shit 💪🏽
Facts I always thought that too

I like that (pause)
He’s definitely penny Hardaway
Man me too 🔥🔥🔥💯
“I used to sit and watch knicks move, no Melo
Now I sit and make king moves on rose petals”
Fab Bars 4 Ever
No one represented Brooklyn culture more than Fab. I'm saying this as a 90s Flatbush kid
FLATBUSH FOREVER
He not from Flatbush, he from the Stuy
@@brickflipper5273 WE NEVER SAID HE WAS 😂 “STILL RUN THRU FLATBUSH LIKE THE D-LINE” - FUNERAL FAB
@theybeonbody1309 One of the illest lines he spit on that mixtape. He spazzed out on them mixtapes.
.jay z
Fab is top 10 in my book There Is No Competition & Soul Tape Series Legendary 🗽🔥
Word!!!
And he murdered every remix/freestyle beat he hopped on around that time
Yo what about that Friday night freestyle run. He killed that

Soul Tape 2 my favorite out the series but they all 🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@KingBeastBDE facts!!
Transformation 🔥🔥🔥🗣️🗣️ that’s my shit
I’m so happy we got a Fabolous interview.
Soul Tapes was like that fr I was a youngin listening to thise
Bro Soul Tapes was Godly
Yall gotta get Lloyd banks on this shit next 🔥🔥🔥
Facts
I agree!
Hell yea gunit
Banko! BMW boy
@@abstractreactions769 they hate me cause they in love with the toy
Fab's transformation on soul tape 2 is one of the best songs of all time
Absolutely 💯
Guess who’s bizzack
Fab has had bars for decades now. Punchline king
Definitely not the PLK, yall just be saying shit on here
Fab got punches but Cassidy is the PunchLine King.
Lil Wayne is the punchline king we all can agree
All yall wrong plk was lloyd banks
@@NoCondomsMedia Lol Cassidy got more and better punches than Banks. Cassidy still battle rap til this day where banks at
Fabolous Sport freestyling in the radio when he bodied N.O.R.E and u can hear N.O.R.E keep saying yooo to try and fuck up his flow or get his turn. CLASSIC RADIO SHIIT
Losos Way always classic for me 🔥 no skips
Fab is one the best for sure, and it was good to hear him mention lloyd banks definitely underrated.
I am 39 years young… I was in H.S. When I first heard Fab on fantastic 4 pt 2 … back in 2001’ .. wow I am old
same here breh, i was one of those that skipped school on sept 11 to cop Fab's debut along with Hov's. It was one of those "Lemme give this new cat a chance" and been a fan since.
Me being 38 I feel the same… Melo played for years and now out the league and seeing grown man Fab makes me feel old
Fab always been a mid range shooter in a 3 point landscape of the game - he is like derozan of the rap game
Good analogy can’t front
I think Fab might actually be the Melo of the game! HOF career, his fans love, everyone respects him, etc may not get mentioned in the goat talk by alot but everyone respects him
This is fair 💯
@@drunktakeway better
That makes no sense Lol
Him saying Diddy took his trademark is hilarious
I know right. Diddy don't miss a beat when it comes to business. Trademarking shit is prob second nature for him in the entertainment world. Shame that he turned out to be batshit crazy lmao
For real!
Take that take that take that
Fab……top 5 of all time……punchline king

" CREDIT is great but some places don't take credit. FLOWERS is great. Flowers die.
