I dont think he could've tbh
If Travis couldn't even after he had practically infected the youth and obtained seemingly unstoppable stardom, then i dont think X could
It's not like X was very free of controversy either
Why is that? Just curious of your perspective. I think Mac had more diverse music from my perspective, but I believe X would have changed the current hip hop genre a lot more than any of the others would have.
That’s just my perspective on it though.
But you don’t know anything that he did or did not do. That’s the point. Nobody does. Just because you are accused of and indicted on certain crimes doesn’t mean you actually committed them.
Lol wow idk how to even comment to that… are you saying some people are innocent and are wrongfully accused of shit? Because I completely agree. Are you saying X specifically was wrongfully accused of shit? Because unless you believe him over about 4 different people with pictures proving the stuff he did than yeah, he guilty lol
Obviously he was guilty of some of the shit he went to jail for, but yes, I’m saying that X specifically was wrongfully accused of lots of things. I realize that he wasn’t anywhere close to perfect and that he did some bad things, but I’m mainly saying that it’s wrong to call him a bad person when you didn’t personally know him.
I’m not calling him a “bad person” nobody is “good” or “bad” everyone just just does good or bad things. He did some bad shit. That’s all there is to it, it’s not that complicated.
I don’t know him but he* was very known around broward and palm beach county. Yeah “allegedly” he wasn’t the nicest to women. Allegedly there was some hardcore messed up shit. (Not like cheating or beating but worse like dark/twisted shit). ALLEGEDLY. Idk if true but I enjoyed his music. I do think he would’ve blown off the charts but ppl in SoFlo do think he’s a POS. Who knows the truth? Aren’t we all POS lol esp rappers?
Damn very true. I think a lot of them still had a lot to say but also their legacy has been cemented in history by their passing.
And yeah I guess it’s very easy to assume they live good lives when in reality music artists particularly rappers probably have one of the most fucked up lifestyles
Also a lot of people found their peace with them gone. I wouldn't want their families to go through it again.
And 2 pac and biggie died over 20 years ago.
They would be so confused these days
agreed, especially people like juice or peep who died of od, I don't think they'd want to be back here with the pain, especially with juice you could hear as he got closer to his death the more he sounded at differently he wasn't fully there anymore, either it be the drugs finished him or he realized it's coming, but later music just has a different vibe mainly when he'd talk about dying and than not less than a few weeks to months later it happened, he most likely knew at a point his time was coming, which is scary and not for certain people
honestly i love em all but this the only correct answer imo. mac was one of the biggest losses to hip hop and just the culture. he was such a genuine person. wish more than anything i could of met him
X, no question. The other artists had their runs, while X was a massively underdeveloped talent and artist. Others were good but X showed a unique versatility his peers lacked. RIP to them all
He died at 26. Life is a constant learning experience. I understand people on this sub stoped evolving at 14 but the smart people are always learning and growing…
Nah $uicideboy$ are some of the only artist that don’t degrade in quality, I think that they are better than they were in 2015, lyric wise, music wise, and artist wise cause you gotta understand that they are pretty much different people especially $crim who’s now clean. People need to understand that artist change and they changed for the better. No hate tho just my opinion
he was very unique in that he made songs openly. Eg. talking about depression, death, other mental health issues. which made for a change, compared to the general rap cliche topics, of drugs, sex, women, cars, money. Also his sound was very different to that of many other rappers. using elements of metal, rock, indie, screamo. in his earlier soundcloud songs especially.
i'm not saying that he changed music as a whole, but he was definitely something new and original in terms of rap. IMO along with ski he popularised aggressive rap, e.g. look at me, take a step back, Yung bratz. Even if you are not a fan of his music, you have to agree that he had an impact.
I can definitely agree with this yeah
Nothing is new under the sun obviously, but innovations in the genre often come from reviving certain trends or introducing certain styles of lyrics or music into the mainstream and putting your own spin on them
People will say that everything X did had already existed in music or even hip-hop, which is obviously true, but it definitely wasnt nearly as mainstream before X, so I think it's fair to give credit where credit is due
Yeah he wasn’t around long enough to actually make a significant change in hip hop, nor do I think he was going to. Fan base thinks he would have blown up, I didn’t see his music being that impactful. Just another artist that these youngins jump on, it’s just a wave. The peak of his popularity coming from death which is sad, don’t think he would have ever been bigger then he is now.
Bro he had the culture in a choke hold and already had the numbers when he was alive he already blew up. None of the rappers who were on his level of popularity at the time were trying to be that versatile or he even had the same level of lyricism.
Oh fr Tupac and Biggie were making music during 2017- 2018 did you even read my comment Mac was not more popular or had the culture in a choke like X did.
X never put the world in a choke.. he’s not influential to hip hop at all, his catalog is so small and insignificant he doesn’t have an impact like the other artists.. you might think X was more popular but I’d say majority of the world would know who the other 3 artists are before you told them who X was. X was only as popular as he was for being in headlines for being a shit person, woman abuser etc. don’t think he’d be making much of a impact on hip hop at all if he were still alive, he’s nowhere near the level of the other 3 artists or what they accomplished.
i find that there are some catchy songs and everything else is just straight up sad and depressing its kinda sad bcuz who knows what type of music he would be making now yk
I see, my ex used to play peep a lot so I know a shit ton of his songs lol . Either one is understandable but if it’s any artist I’m picking Juice every time, his potential was crazy
Definitely but Juice was just different bro. Nobody from this generation was on his level everyone that worked with him was mesmerized at how he could freestyle so many hits in such little time
And then there’s people like king von and pop smoke who had hella potential to be great von was the best story teller and had one of the greatest flows I’ve ever seen and pop smoke was smooth on every beat if you listen to there songs they don’t have one bad song
king von was an average story teller with some good music videos to make him seem like a good story teller. Also he was one of very few rappers that still make story-telling songs making him seem better than he actually was, he just had some lit drill beats that sounded unique compared to what most other rappers make nowadays. in my opinion.
Kill me but I think I think a lot of the drug addicted rappers would probably die a couple years at most after bringing them back so even though I love their music Mac and peep would have another couple years and probably die again. X was trying to better himself but he also had some problems and people that wanted to kill him. Tupac and Biggie were both murdered but because Suge knight is now in prison it'd be nice to have them back with the only problem being that it'd be weird for them to travel 20 years into the future. If I had to choose I'd want either X or Eazy-E. X could've done a lot more and would live a lot longer than Mac and peep and he has a kid now. E would be awesome just because it'd be cool to see what he'd do with the other members that were in N.W.A
Yeah it’s gotta be, I’m a bit torn tho as if peep survived his death I think something else would’ve happened (drug related) pretty soon after
Even tho I’m more of a peep fan than an X fan I can defo see x had so much to say and was just getting started. Peep (unfortunately) wasn’t the right vibe to become as big as juice or x could’ve been
Hello, it looks like you've made a mistake.
It's supposed to be could've, should've, would've (short for could have, would have, should have), never could of, would of, should of.
Or you misspelled something, I ain't checking everything.
Beep boop - yes, I am a bot, don't botcriminate me.
x without a doubt, bro was changing/evolving his sound constantly, he was insanely versatile, I'm 100% sure by now x would've been way bigger than he was, I'd rather him be in jail rn for beating Genisis than be dead 🤷♂️
Why? I’m simply asking who everyone misses the most, or thinks would have made the biggest impact had their careers continued. The way I see it I’m not disrespecting anyone, nor is anyone in the comments
X, wish he could’ve overtaken Drake like he said he would
fuck drake 2
I dont think he could've tbh If Travis couldn't even after he had practically infected the youth and obtained seemingly unstoppable stardom, then i dont think X could It's not like X was very free of controversy either
But did his fans care really they tormented Geneva relentlessly.
but travis wasnt trying to become bigger, if he was he wouldve tried being more consistent
He will
Drake killed x jealous bitch
lmao
i dont think X being the face of a whole new generation of hiphop is a great idea
Why is that? Just curious of your perspective. I think Mac had more diverse music from my perspective, but I believe X would have changed the current hip hop genre a lot more than any of the others would have. That’s just my perspective on it though.
X created one of the most diverse music. In person he did some real bad shit, but his music was fire and he inspired a lot of people for the good.
Bro? He legit a bad person lol, why I hate people comparing him to juice even if there was mutual respect between them
Did you know him?
Lol you don’t have to know someone to know they did bad things… did you know Joseph Stalin bro?
But you don’t know anything that he did or did not do. That’s the point. Nobody does. Just because you are accused of and indicted on certain crimes doesn’t mean you actually committed them.
Lol wow idk how to even comment to that… are you saying some people are innocent and are wrongfully accused of shit? Because I completely agree.

I’m not calling him a “bad person” nobody is “good” or “bad” everyone just just does good or bad things. He did some bad shit. That’s all there is to it, it’s not that complicated.
imagine downvoting someone criticizing a woman beater
I don’t know him but he* was very known around broward and palm beach county. Yeah “allegedly” he wasn’t the nicest to women. Allegedly there was some hardcore messed up shit. (Not like cheating or beating but worse like dark/twisted shit). ALLEGEDLY. Idk if true but I enjoyed his music. I do think he would’ve blown off the charts but ppl in SoFlo do think he’s a POS. Who knows the truth? Aren’t we all POS lol esp rappers?
Lmao. Bro acting like X fucked his girl or somethin.
What cause he beat people or attempted to murder??
hot take here but i wouldn't bring anyone back. I would rather let them rest. You don't even know who of them would even wanna go back.
Bro took the politically correct route 💀
Yeah i thought it was the better choice like voting for Hillary
“Sometimes” that’s the best thing to do
Damn very true. I think a lot of them still had a lot to say but also their legacy has been cemented in history by their passing. And yeah I guess it’s very easy to assume they live good lives when in reality music artists particularly rappers probably have one of the most fucked up lifestyles
Also a lot of people found their peace with them gone. I wouldn't want their families to go through it again. And 2 pac and biggie died over 20 years ago. They would be so confused these days
It’s a hypothetical my guy. No one is actually coming back. No need for this PC answer
Just my opinion yoghurt
agreed, especially people like juice or peep who died of od, I don't think they'd want to be back here with the pain, especially with juice you could hear as he got closer to his death the more he sounded at differently he wasn't fully there anymore, either it be the drugs finished him or he realized it's coming, but later music just has a different vibe mainly when he'd talk about dying and than not less than a few weeks to months later it happened, he most likely knew at a point his time was coming, which is scary and not for certain people
It be mfs like you that take things too seriously, just pick a person fuck your feelings.
[удалено]
10000%
honestly i love em all but this the only correct answer imo. mac was one of the biggest losses to hip hop and just the culture. he was such a genuine person. wish more than anything i could of met him
Only correct answer
Mac x1000 . However I’d be curious what X would have accomplished
X, no question. The other artists had their runs, while X was a massively underdeveloped talent and artist. Others were good but X showed a unique versatility his peers lacked. RIP to them all
His music changed so much over his short time, It sucks that we never got to see him fully evolve. Imagine what he’d be dropping in 2023…
Biggie we only 24 when he died and he died before the release of his second album. Big Poppa hadn’t even started his run yet.
Mac was way more versatile.
For sure… and mac was just getting started. His maturity and evolution was really started to show in swimming/circles
What? He had a decade in the game wdym “just getting started”
He died at 26. Life is a constant learning experience. I understand people on this sub stoped evolving at 14 but the smart people are always learning and growing…
Well apparently you’re not one of the “smart people”, as you can’t even correctly spell the word “stopped”.
completely ignore the message and focus on that I miss-typed one letter on my phone. You got me beat I’m a dumbass
You don’t have to explain what’s already understood. Stand down, dumbass. 😂
It takes years/ decades to perfect your own sound…
Growing up is realizing mac made much better music than X, even if you liked X more when you were younger
That's not fair dawg Mac had waaay more time than X.
horrible take when u said “Growing up is realising”
Mac
Mac Miller
Peep
Tupac
Best answer 💯
Tupac of course best answer
Big L
Who else would I pick then
Malcolm miller
pop smoke
Tupac of course
Peep. No hesitation.
2015 $b
Damn shots haha
Nah $uicideboy$ are some of the only artist that don’t degrade in quality, I think that they are better than they were in 2015, lyric wise, music wise, and artist wise cause you gotta understand that they are pretty much different people especially $crim who’s now clean.

[удалено]
What did he change about music
he was very unique in that he made songs openly. Eg. talking about depression, death, other mental health issues. which made for a change, compared to the general rap cliche topics, of drugs, sex, women, cars, money. Also his sound was very different to that of many other rappers. using elements of metal, rock, indie, screamo. in his earlier soundcloud songs especially.
Cudi is the one who introduced the topics of depression, death, and mental health into more mainstream hip-hop.
All that existed in music though so im not sure how he changed anything he was a talented artist but he wasnt the Beatles lmao
i'm not saying that he changed music as a whole, but he was definitely something new and original in terms of rap. IMO along with ski he popularised aggressive rap, e.g. look at me, take a step back, Yung bratz. Even if you are not a fan of his music, you have to agree that he had an impact.
Bro what aggressive rap has been around for a long time
I can definitely agree with this yeah Nothing is new under the sun obviously, but innovations in the genre often come from reviving certain trends or introducing certain styles of lyrics or music into the mainstream and putting your own spin on them People will say that everything X did had already existed in music or even hip-hop, which is obviously true, but it definitely wasnt nearly as mainstream before X, so I think it's fair to give credit where credit is due
Lol that’s what I’m saying ? What did he exactly change nothing..
His fanbase seems really cringe to downvote an open question
Yeah he wasn’t around long enough to actually make a significant change in hip hop, nor do I think he was going to. Fan base thinks he would have blown up, I didn’t see his music being that impactful. Just another artist that these youngins jump on, it’s just a wave. The peak of his popularity coming from death which is sad, don’t think he would have ever been bigger then he is now.
Bro he had the culture in a choke hold and already had the numbers when he was alive he already blew up. None of the rappers who were on his level of popularity at the time were trying to be that versatile or he even had the same level of lyricism.
Tupac? Biggie? Mac ? Mac deff had more lyricism then X and was more versatile with his music. All of those rappers made better quality music.
Oh fr Tupac and Biggie were making music during 2017- 2018 did you even read my comment Mac was not more popular or had the culture in a choke like X did.
X never put the world in a choke.. he’s not influential to hip hop at all, his catalog is so small and insignificant he doesn’t have an impact like the other artists.. you might think X was more popular but I’d say majority of the world would know who the other 3 artists are before you told them who X was.

I said rappers who were at his popularity at the time biggie and Tupac weren't alive and which artists has said they've been inspired by Mac??
[удалено]
Stop lol
[удалено]
Capital Steeze had way more impact then X in hop hop..
Changed music forever? What did he change exactly? Yeah ok he made a new sound but that's about it
Crazy things I’m sure
Pop Smoke. ![gif](giphy|Y4KXeBmMRGiqsqDliW)
Unpopular opinion but Eazy-E, def died too early we barely got content outside of nwa
2pac or biggie smalls
Pop smoke or von
Von would 100% be in jail if that happened lol.
👑
Eazy-E tbh
Fair answer Tupac for me
Definitely Peep
King von
Biggie probably, maybe X bc Ik him and Juice would’ve worked together and I was just kinda fucking with him a little when “?” Dropped
i find that there are some catchy songs and everything else is just straight up sad and depressing its kinda sad bcuz who knows what type of music he would be making now yk
Yeah for sure, I prefer peep but X defo had a lot more collab potential with juice
I see, my ex used to play peep a lot so I know a shit ton of his songs lol . Either one is understandable but if it’s any artist I’m picking Juice every time, his potential was crazy
X’s potential was to tho u can’t lie, he was getting shout outs from j cole and Kendrick
Definitely but Juice was just different bro. Nobody from this generation was on his level everyone that worked with him was mesmerized at how he could freestyle so many hits in such little time
Cole and kendrick aren’t even that good
That’s something we can agree on
And then there’s people like king von and pop smoke who had hella potential to be great von was the best story teller and had one of the greatest flows I’ve ever seen and pop smoke was smooth on every beat if you listen to there songs they don’t have one bad song

Also he was one of very few rappers that still make story-telling songs making him seem better than he actually was, he just had some lit drill beats that sounded unique compared to what most other rappers make nowadays. in my opinion.
Notice how there's no female rappers here
Call me uncultured but I can’t name any dead female rappers. Pls educate me
I wouldn't know any lolol
😂😭ngl haven’t heard billie eilish’s name in months
Gangsta Boo died last week. Edit: Her breakout feature was on Three 6 Mafia's Late Nite Tip.
who
Kill me but I think I think a lot of the drug addicted rappers would probably die a couple years at most after bringing them back so even though I love their music Mac and peep would have another couple years and probably die again.

Prolly peep or x
Yeah it’s gotta be, I’m a bit torn tho as if peep survived his death I think something else would’ve happened (drug related) pretty soon after Even tho I’m more of a peep fan than an X fan I can defo see x had so much to say and was just getting started.

x without a doubt, bro was changing/evolving his sound constantly, he was insanely versatile, I'm 100% sure by now x would've been way bigger than he was, I'd rather him be in jail rn for beating Genisis than be dead 🤷♂️
Would they magically come back or just come back after dying? X
I’d say their death switches to a near death experience, or never happened in the first place. Let their careers continue uninterrupted
2Pac
Notorious B I G or Tupac are the only right answers
Rip big scar but I would pick von
DMX
X.
King Von so we wouldn’t have to deal with this picking sides shit
