Ed Lover is right Ra set the tone for modern Day lyricism. Age isn't a barrier to learning. I've given game to people far older than me on many occasions. There are others who may have been talented as well. But no one was TECHNICALLY CREATIVELY CONSISTENTLY INNOVATIVE as Ra covering a rainbow of topics, styles, patterns,and phraseologies that fathered generations. FACTS...even if disagreed still resonates as solid💯✊🏾💯 3:31
Nas said himself Rakim was his biggest influence
He's absolutely correct weather we are a fan of them or not if it wasn't for the mc"s who where here from the beginning hip-hop wouldn't exist to begin with 👏 👏 ✔️✔️✔️✔️👍👍👍 💯 💯 💯
I agree Kool G Rap has had a influence on Nas but it wouldn’t surprise me if Lord Finesse name would’ve been mentioned too.
Hummmm.... I can see that assessment, Doggie. Nas connection to GRap. Very cool on the mic. 🤔
Nope he was anointed the next Rakim, not the next G Rap, he got his career off being the next Rakim, he started G Rap and Slick Rick later cause it was to hard and complex to be Rakim, Rakim imprint all over Illmatic.
He(Nas) was in ERic B and Rakim studio session before he met G Rap. He used Eric B and Rakim studio time. Dead Pres. was a Rakim phrase that Nas took.
I wonder how he came to that conclusion no way that can be proven
😂 especially in 2023 damn near 24😂😂
It can absolutely be proven, before Rakim everyone was rapping my Kurtis Blow……. He made everyone after him to have be able to have their own flow
@@solebrothernumber1sarcasm sir
Rap was totally different before the paid in full album. The game changed after that album. Rapper were sounding like RunDmc, yelling their lyrics. Or like how LL sounded on rock the bells. Rakim rapped with a normal laid back voice
Ed Lover C’mon Son you bugging. 😂
Every person helps the next person that's how it works 😂
Slick Rick was laid back with it too, and he was before Rakim.
Not my Melody smooth homie, slow flow was Rakim not Kanye.
The irony here to me is that Jay-Z is only a year younger than Rakim and BDK. Now Nas and Biggie are four to five years younger respectively so, that's understandable influence. But, NAS, specifically, was 14-15 when Rakim was really lit and he definitely came up under that school of Mc. JAY-Z would be more BDK influenced even though he still only a year younger than Kane too. I'm not saying they he's wrong its just, that goes to everyone before them regardless. But, equally so, those greats efforts would be for naught if the next Generation didn't carry the mantle to even higher heights. So, it works both ways.
Another observation could be made if we're being honest is that Jay-Z was more influenced by NAS than BDK or Rakim on his debut Album 🤔 The flickty fast style that was arguably influenced by Kane or Jaz-O was played out by the time Resonable Doubt was released. In fact, Jay-Z is somewhat ashamed of his more humble lyrical beginnings. I get that from listening to Memphis Bleek interviews and my own observation of Jay-Z talking about his past musically.
@@bravedave90Jay was not influeced by no damn Nas. Rakim did influence Jay Z and Nas. Nas got his style from Rakim and Kool G Rap. Jay got his style from Rakim and Big Daddy Kane. Rakim inspired Nas and Jay to do the introspective style. Nas didn’t create that type of style in order to influence Jay Z. That style of rap was before Nas.
@@bravedave90 wrong Jay came out on BDK had his success with Rakim style, How times he quote Rakim and how many time he quote BDK or G rap? What did Jay say on Rap Radar? Knock it off
@@SoulOfTheSouth More accurate than most
Age has nothing to do with influence. Ra made everyone solidify the technicality of being lyrical.
He did what he did? I think you are missing what he meant. No one was said they had to sound like him. Lebron doesn't play like Jordan. Yet people paved the way.
The “God MC”
It’s the truth…real talk and facts and no cap
NAH IF WASN’T FOR BERRY WE WOULDN’T HAVE RAKIM.
Is not being calm as a rapper rakim master the ryme scheme no one dosen't better than rakim he formulated his lyricism in a art forum were you after listen to his songs twice to understand his lyrics for example like the 18th letter or holy are you" those are deep songs . I put up 18th letter song to any legendary rapper against thier best songs . Rakim is another level i think rakim has not reach his full potential despite not having a new album in a long time . This why i said rakim has to prove him self that he still got it . If makes new album just good as paid full or better at the age he's its remarkable .
"Dont Sweat Technique"!!! Preach
Yeah I agree with you on all except for Nas. He is definitely a Rakim as well as G Rap disciple. Style wise King Sun , Parrish Smith and Grand Daddy IU and to a lesser degree Guru seem more like they came from the Rakim tree.
Y'all missing the point, everyone has taking and uses Rakim techniques, rhyme patterns, and style, how to connect words, hence the song "Dont sweat the Technique" or listen to "I Aint Know Joke" quote ' You know the one you got your idea from" or the whole "Follow the Leader"

@@user-jb6qh6kf8rFinally I couldn't have said it better.
When I hear Nas I hear G.Rap and Tragedy Khadafi
Yeah later albums not Illmatic homie
Ed lover act like that was a ground breaking statement 😂
Exactly 😂 the hell is his point
Let's say this that Rakim was the first MC to make an impact in the commercial impact with his smooth style of raps. Then others followed . Remember everyone back then and now when asked who's their favorite rapper they always said Rakim. Listen to those old interviews of rappers of the 90's. Even EPMD was told they sound like Rakim, but your assessment is also right. Biggie said once he got his vision style of rap from Kool G Rap. Method said he started rapping because of Kool G Rap. BIG PUN was rumored to bow down to Kool G rap and kissed his feet. He definitely got his style from Kool G. I heard of Russell saying that about Nas. Don't know why because Nas raps smoothly like rakim. Unless when Russell met him he probably was rapping g with a lisp like G rap. I will say Nas took rakim style to the next level to street knowledge but jay z definitely was influenced by Big daddy kane.
Correction: Pun is said to have kissed G Rap's ring. To me, Rakim, Kane, G Rap, and KRS established the templates for rappers we still see today. Jay would be more of a Kane and later a Nas / Rakim. Nas is a mix of G Rap and Rakim. Biggie is more G Rap.
@@CarlosHernandez-rl2wg I agree
There is also a BET interview with Pun and Big Les where Pun says Rakim, Nas was in the studio with Large Pro, Eric B, and Rakim using there studio time
WHAT RAKIM SAID?
AND WHO CARES😂😂😂😂😂
THERE WOULD NOT BE NO LIL BOW WOW NEITHER OR AMIL🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️
IF WE JUST SAYING SHIT🤣🤣🤣
In my my opinion Ed Lover got it wrong .More a case of there'd be no Jay,Nas,or Biggie without G Rap.G Rap is,as they say,the true God MC.
Doggie G.Rap was just street outside that subject matter does not reach that far, Nas subject matter goes further, so who did he get that from? Rakim, where did Nas get that subject matter and have it all over the place G Rap, he did the GRap later.
@@user-jb6qh6kf8r When I say God MC,I'm referring to the evolution of word play from what it was before G Rap broke out.G Rap birthed all of the above mentioned with that same evolution.Nas Subject matter? Yes you right.He holds that honour.
Doggie I am surprised at you my dude, If you listen to illmatic that is definitely Rakim, those ideas are Rakim the first albums of Eric B and Rakim, Eric B for Pres. and My Melody slow flow that's Ra, Jay came out with Kane flow, did not work, then change flow like Rakim and won, you need to look at like a patent, Kodak patent is in everybody's phone in the camera, the platform is Rakim, then layered, it is same with Rakim, example everyone connects those words together or stretch the word to get to next one, which the youngins use to this day, its the technique, you could not rhyme like what came before him, you had to go back to the lab, you heard what DMC said, Doggie you are smarter than that, you understand what ED is talking about. I have more examples.
You’re absolutely right homie..real talk and facts and no cap
And NON of them wouldn't exist without KOOL HERC. #FUNFACT
Dudes is slow the idea nobody connect word like Rakim, it is the technique, today everyone is still using his technique, stretching the word to get to next one. stop it.
DJ kool Herc was just a DJ stupid and that’s not being a rapper…how pathetic and ignorant..no cap
@@user-jb6qh6kf8ryou’re a very wise man homie and the homie is trying to compare DJ Kool Herc to Rakim that’s two different positions in the hip hop culture history…..it’s always a blessing to see a wise man speak….real talk and facts and no cap
IT'S ALL CAP.... RAKUM IS WAAAAYYYYYY OVER RATED...... HES BEING POLITICALLY CORRECT
What part is Cap?
