Devin fans check out the new shit titled 'Weed, Wine and Women'
I thought 'To The Extreme' sucked, but this one redeems Dev
Oh and all u 'rap sucks and i'll stand behind that statement' or whatever it was. STFU, just coz Lars Ulrhich of Metallica is an asshole. Doesn't mean the whole rock industry is a bunch of pricks. And if all u ever heard was MTV rap, again, STFU. U dont know nothing. Yer opinion is worth nothing and u suck ass
Thanks

Oyster: My brother was just telling me about that album. Still haven't checked it out.
For all that don't know, Devin has been on such "notable" songs as "Fuck you(Track 3)" on Chronic 2001, as well as that classic "Ni**a don't believe that song, that ni**as wrong. Gangstas don't live that long" song from Scarface(and many other 'Face songs. Good music.
215: I hope you're kidding. We're not talking shit about black singers, just rappers(ok..I get it). The point isn't to disrespect them or their style. It's just to discuss whether or not they can really "talk shop" about weed, or just talk shit. As far as "coming to the hood"..do you think you're the first person to go to the hood? You're at a pot forum. About 80% of us have gone to the hood to pick up a fat dime when we were younger. And the "hood" is what really backs up my whole point.
"I got that purple haze, mang". Then why are the leaves fat and why does it smell skunky?
"This is that 'dro. Not that soil weed."
"No outdoor?"
"Nah playa, that aint shit when you got the fire ass dro"
"Ok, I'll take 3"
Ever look at the THMQ for hightimes? See all those strain names that don't make any sense? Guess where they come from."This is that Bin Laden, the Al Green, the Ayatollah, the hypnotic(not the drink..i know).
I do apologize for repeating myself wayyy too many times, but you know how it goes. No disrespect towards the rappers or the scene, but like i said, it kind of bugs me.

Most rappers don't know about weed but know the general price range.When I say don't know about weed, I mean they don't know how to grow it or any of the steps involved in doing so. They do know about buds however. They will know by looking at it and smelling it if it's good or not and most would know what it's worth. Not all are retarded and not just the super famous (cypress and snoop) know about herbs. It's the little references that let me know. Anyone can mention a strain but mentioning "moving elbows" is something only a seasoned vet would know about.
A friend of mine is part of a rapper named Twista's (worlds fastest rapper) crew. Whenever they come to the West coast they always get in touch with me for their smoke. Twista can't get enough of the OG and Bubba and trust me money is no object. But what was strange to me was this. When me and my friend's smoke we pack what we call "boogers", booger sized bowls, and take one hit and snap the bowl. The first time we met was at the Forum a few years back and after they got what they wanted, we decided to smoke a little bit. I packed a bowl for Twista and was shocked when I saw that not only he didn't finish the bowl, he actually passed it on down the line to the other guys with him. But what was even funnier was when I packed a bowl for my partner and he snapped the bowl in 1 hit. The look on their faces was priceless! Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to clown on these guys. Just saying don't believe everything you hear. These guys were smoking on some of the finest, but they wouldn't be rapping about not being able to finish a bowl or what not....would you? Cool down to earth guys, really funny. But a tad bit too loud for me.

oh and hes not a rapper but hes an average blunt smoking black guy...lol
I think it's kind of rediculous that anyone could care so much about this subject. Like someone said in a post above, rappers also rap about murdering people and and what not, and that's right, not very many of them have. When a lot of rappers rap (besides mostly poetic, real stuff) they make theirselves out to be the shit. The best, therefore they need to rap about smoking the best herb. Sure, they don't smoke purple haze, but they include it in the rap because some will say it's the most potent blah blah blah. So, you see what I'm saying.
The reason I find it so rediculous is because... I think everyone (unless they have a huge hate for rap) that smokes weed, shouldn't really give a shit. They like weed, you like weed, period. Embrace...
I rap myself. I'm not famous or anything obviously, but I produce my own beats, and write my own shit. I know my herb, but I don't even rap about it very often. But I'll rap a grip of other shit that I haven't really done or experienced, just because it's my way of relaxation, venting, entertainment, and creativity. If I really wanted to get some deep point across about my life or my feelings or something, I would do it by taking a step back into reality in the raps, but I like what I do.
But to the guy that said he doesn't like rap because he pays more attention to the instrumental part of music... I'd have to disagree. More and more rap beats nowadays you'll hear that are just as musically complex as any other type of music, and are 100% original. Any emcee that also makes his own beats will a lot of the times tell you they take more pride in their beats than their words.

Heres what i dont get. You have freedom of speech, you have a big fanbase, your a big rapper, you get payed alot.... But they still chose to rap about nothing... i doubt 50 cent smokes purple haze ever. Or even believes that what hes smoking is purple haze.
50cent is just a tool using a phrase popularized by jimi hendrix that might have been talking about some name of acid, or some legendary strain of weed ( im not sure of the truth on this one).
edit. Alot of mainstream rap is just a bunch of bullshit lyrics thrown in with some good beats. Then a repetative punchline. It makes money. And the artists who make this music are tools. Lil john contributes to this BS but at least he can make the beats too!
As for the rest of the rappers, Most of them talk about regular life and some are exceptional at integrating politics ect.... But alot of them are idiots (especially the mainstream ones making the most money).
Anyways sorry for the stoned ramble i hope someone gets my point.
Edit: As for snoop dog. He is real. who dosent believe snoop blazes haha

That's right... but it's less about rapping about fake shit, and it's more about catchiness, and that's it when it comes to mainstream rap nowadays, especially with what's hot right now. So that's where you're right about bullshit lyrics.
"i do so good all by myself
i do it so good i don't need nobody else
what's happenin', what's up, got that purp fire it up"
Rediculous.
That's one thing that does irritate me though. Is people being so pumped on "purp" or purple. The finest marijuana that I've smoked, has not been purple. I've smoked some dank purple, but most purple I've smoked is mediocre in comparison to my herb of choice.

I'd say most rappers, just like most people, don't know much about weed. Bottom line like a lot of people have already said, they're out to make money. Would say a lot of rappers just toss some strain name around to make it sound like they're getting some dank weed in the eyes of the majority of people. However, also gotta consider some rappers (snoop for instance) are potheads just like us and if any of us had the money and fame, you already know we'd be hunting down the best bud we could get our hands on. (well, we'd probably be growing it... but you know what I'm saying).
Drugs, Sex, Violence, and Money... the things that ease people's greed, rappers are all about it cause it all seams to sell. Willing to bet a lot of rappers rapping about being hardcore thugs and shooting people and all that jazz would shit their pants if someone did start shooting at them. Doubt many of em are pimps either, lol.

I dont have a problem with it and what place are you to have an attitde as to what someone can say weather it be on a rap song or a country song, or someone talking, Hell the firs mention of ECSD was from The Game, I dont think the breeders or growers mind it's free publisity, and allot of it. If you dont like rap your either listening to the wrong people or style. Weed has allways been a part of hip-hop music throught the years(even before '98) and will forever be involved in it, I love hearing about the new upcoming strains mixed in with my "nigga beatz". If you were a grower or breeder I could undrstand but you are just venting on something that you cant controll, find something better to bitch about than strains being mentioned in songs, and like I said the breeders and growers love this publisity, why wouldn't they?
Bubbleboi-- you are so right about some rappers being posers it's not even funny, but if you get to know someones story you can tell if their a poser or if they are real gangbangers, I personally sorted this out a long time ago, most West Coast rap is from real bangers, but you do have Benzino and others who decredibilize it. G-unit is a gay ass laughing stock, Nelly is a fag, JD is a grease monkey, Jay Z is a joke the list goes on.
Here are a few good rappers I listen to, The Game. Slim Thug, Chamillionaire, Bun B, Too Short, Dr.Dre, Snoop, Black Wallstreet, Juelz Santana(some songs), three 6 mafia, Phat Rat, Young Geezy, Big Tymers, Petey Pablo many others but I'm stopping here.

Im sure you do man, Im sure you do. I also want to add Cassidy to my list. You got any proof of this CaliKushed7, I would hate to be wrong, but that is a big statement you made about knowing Kurrupt, Xz, Snoop, and Dillinger. Give us some proof man and you would be a big dog in my book.

Anyways, I just now caught this thread.. I agree with most of what was said, rappers dont really know their stuff, with the exception of the major ganja related ones.. Cypress Hill, Kottonmouth Kings, Snoop Dogg, etc, etc.. thats about the only rap I listen to, and only when Im really blazed

Yeah rappers just use 'dro' and 'purps' because thats the common slang word for that urban group of people. i chill with a black dude and he only says 'purps' when the weeds got some purple in it and yeh half the rappers probably dont know what exactly they're smoking,they probably dont care. They probably get offered some dank for 4 bills a zip or something and buy it. Im sure a lot of these rappers aren't smoking some work (commercial grown) because come on most of them are pulling in millions of bucks a year, whether you're dumb or not, you're going to be buying some dank or even getting kicked down with some.
Kmk definently knows their shit when it comes to weed, i cant say im their biggest fan anymore like i was years ago but they dont bull shit. they have songs listing what the hell they use for their grows (bobby b's grow) on royal highness. YOU DO THE MATH MOTHER FUCKER...
Only reason i replied in this because over the last few months i've noticed how everyy popular rap song has purps dro or kush in it, but i mean come on is someone going to say they're smoking some stress or work, no they're going to say theyre smoking some bombs.
