God bless this show. I'm 41 years old and rap is in me yet I have felt that at this age I should not be rapping. After listening to you and Styles on the issue of aging in rap I am more encouraged now.
I’m 35 big dipset music fan but styles p in my top 5 both groups made they mark… gangsta and gentleman album made me really understand things about life more then any album ever
Back then it was levels…u couldn’t just start rapping…we had to go through breaking or beatboxing then level up to graffiti then level up to carrying dj record crates to party’s…then level up to rapping 🤞🏾💯❤️
When people ask me how I feel about Donald Trump I'm going to tell them I feel the same way how Styles P feel that's what I'm going to tell them, I 1 million percent agreed with his perspective on that topic
The funny thing is that ppl aren't tuned in on what is going on at all. Even this subject here. Most of these interviewers aren't even hip hop heads. They just go Google styles and they ask him about bad boy and stupid stuff. These dudes are the real deal. The industry is full of clowns. And all the blackballing in the fake hip-hop community couldn't change the lox. Salute the team and their street team the whole camp. Y'all made history in the streets. Tapping in from southern greater Somalia 🐎🥷🏇 Bac kasii
Facts the only group that's still together till this day. And remaining strong together. Like styles said on we are the streets... the intro part to the y'all fucked up now song you could even put three niggas together and come up with this combination you know what. And it hasn't been a combination like them ever he was right. They're my favorite artist period, styles, Jada and sheek.
There's a 3 disc L.O.X. mixtape that was sold at a secret location on 125th St. and Madison for $30.00 that I'm still mad I never got a chance to get before a vacation up north. And I hope that I've had a chance to have heard all those songs by now, but I'll never know...
I am really disgusted with this on going question to grown black man who are professional rappers as to what age brothers should stop rapping. I've never heard a Rolling Stone journalist ask Sting, Bruce Springsteen, Robert Pratt of the Cure or even Mick Jagger if their too old to continue touring or creating new music. It's an on going agenda to push out the seasoned professional rappers with substance and flood the market with low frequency music by younger artist who could be easily taken advantage with bad music contract. Respect the art. If you 40 and spitting bars please have substance in your raps. Thank you.
@@user-js2qo3kj8r yes the fan has been programed, the youngins within the community have been programed to disrespect the elders. A Lot of it is due to a lack of having elder figures besides grand parents. So there's a collision of the ram and the young Rams bumping heads. "You a old head you don't know what you talking about" you make a good point. The reality is we don't own the corporation that control the minds of the youth so there's a disconnect and journalist like this continue to push the agenda.
I respect his career and political honesty. A lot of people felt and feel the same about elections. But we must vote or we'll lose the right to do so. Vote independent if you can't pick between the other two options. Just please VOTE!!!
Styles was right about the rapping over beats is what made their fan base. I don't even like a lot of the Lox singles but I know so many of their freestyles by heart.
Toure is working so hard to defend Biden and Clinton at every chance. You think he making time abd a half for that? He couldn't even let Styles finish the words "super predator" he keot interrupting to defend Clinton. No surprise
A third party is only around in theory. You have the rainbow party etc. But they seldom have political pull to make it through. Our government is Ruled by money and until we get it out of politics we will never have representation
I wish these talkin heads of rap would STOP sayin emcees should retire at 40. THAT'S RIDICULOUS. I'm not gonna listen to "Lil' so and so" at the age of 53. PLUS...it's a completely OPEN MARKET. We need MORE of that finely aged street music...like Brownsville Ka.
Thats right stylez, how will we force anyone to do anything if we just give our votes away, we literally dont have anything to lose, we don't have anything, in comparison to other groups, we dont even have anyone who advocates for us, you cant even say you're going to do something for us without including everyone, even though the justification they're using is the disenfranchisement we suffer(ed)🤷🏿♂️

Yeah he has said it. Multiple ways and the policies he pushed proved it. I get having you transgressions towards Biden. And I share them. But to claim Trump is the better option it's comical

People vote Democrat when they need help and support and broke They vote republican when they dont need help just more money. Its embarrassing when some people take their success as status and think they can hang out with republicans like "we the same as you, same values, same principles"
He is clearly back tracking and shockingly letting the host speak for him abd guide him through the exit. lol.

Salute to Styles P! Great point of view on several topics. To each their own if you disagree. Glad he mentioned Getty Square in Yonkers, New York.
Styles P, is my favorite Lox member ❤️🖤💚
The best
for sure
Shout out to Styles P for what he said about rapping after 40
" I Dont wanna pick a better poison.. Id rather fast!"
This is why this dude is my favorite rapper..

I COULDN'T AGREE WITH STYLES ENOUGH. He Is Dropping Facts and Common Sense HARD...
This guy doesn't deserve to talk to styles or hip hop in general because he thought D- Block was before The Lox
