Death Row vs Wu-Tang

[a_list]

^^^^^^This nigga trippn....^^^^

 

[caddo man]

Cant compare the two equally but Death Row influenced hip hop more for me. Also by seeing how people overseas in the late 90s loved Pac, Snoop and Dre, I am not the only one.

 

[5 Grand]

It ain't fair deathrow is a label that sold more records than Wu Tang..... deathrow had bigger artists than Wu Tang.... deathrow had rza chain on tour out west till 2pac gave it back cuz he loved Wu Tang......there just ain't no comparing a group & a label especially when Wu Tang was gonna fuk wit deathrow east..

STFU about this deathrow east bullshit.

Yeah but 2Pac was going to take over the East coast as soon as he signed Craig Mack

Makaveli gave rza chain back n 96 cuz pac had love for Wu Tang....that's y when pac spoke on rza getting beat up & his chain snatched n 96 he never said rza name method man is the 1 who exposed rza got jacked by deathrizzo....so u can make up this fake beef between Wu Tang & deathrow but u look Krazy comparing a group wit a label...

Uh those west coast niggas had to come to N.Y. sooner or later.

Idk where y'all get the idea that NYC niggas are/were soft.

I forgot, they were all getting at 2pac, you right

Only little niggas believed in that fake 2pac thuggery bs. Anybody who was about that life during that time knew 2pac was selling wolf tickets. Them blood and crip Niggas were official. 2pac not so much.

Again you act like them same Rap niggas did not have to come N.Y. to get money. What world do you niggas live in. Lol.

Who was checking pac for dissing big, puff, and their city? Nigga said fuck bad boy as a record label, staff, and crew. And if you down with bad boy, fuck you too. Who checked pac for that? Why mobb deep never say anything until pac died?

@gee757 Pac was going to prison with Suge for parole violation. Do you always seem to read over that? Deathrow East was an idea, a nice one, but thats it. Pac was gonna be locked up had he not died and the south took over not too long after. Stop with the delusions.

Dumbass didn't your idol get robbed and shot in NYC? Wtf did he do? Nothing. Went on a dry snitching promo tour. Telling the world big and puff set him up. When he knew the whole time who it was that really jacked him. I respect the shooter. Yall respect the Nigga that was shot on multiple occasions and did nothin.

I notice a trend on the IC. Yall like to champion a lot loud mouth niggas. Niggas who stay running they mouth but never do nothing.

All these niggas above been selling wolf tickets for years and do nothing. All these niggas have been pressed by real official NYC niggas and not nary one of them niggas wanted that smoke.

Your idol got got in NYC and moved all the way to a new time zone. Thats not gangsta. He got scared and ran away.

But I'll let you tell it though.

And Pac still had the whole city shook from California.

And yet got bodied on the same coast that was supposed to be holding him down/ his safe haven.

California Love huh??

Care to look at a map and tell me where nevada borders a coast line?

Lol fucking scrub

Fucking Caucasian. I know you dumb. Don't quote me no more.

Isnt Nevada and California in the same time zone? Was Pac not gunned down in las vegas? Isnt las vegas on the western part of this nation?

So WTF are you asking me? Did I say las vegas was a coastal city or a city on the west coast?

Fucking Moolie

You are fucking a brian dead for real

You said he was shot on the west coast you dumbass

And Wu-tang has Ghostface Killah. He could body anyone on the Death Row Roster.

But Tupac came out there to do Saturday night live and everything. Biggie didn't Come to the westcoast until the nigga Pac died and the coast was clear. Biggie's actions or lack there of for a guy who was suppose to be king of the whole East Coast is what made the whole east look shook more than anything else. I mean thank God y'all had Mobb Deep at the time that was wit the shits, but they never shoulda been the first ones on the front lines cuz they wasn't really taken seriously by Tupac. Biggie shoulda told everybody fall back, I got this. So even if it was just perception (which I don't think so but I'm tryna work wit chu niggas) that NY was soft, I think it's all Biggies fault that those sentiments got put into the atmosphere. He was the one guy who coulda changed the course of rap history had he handled the "Hit em up" situation like the battle rapper he came up being instead of copping pleas and sounding all scared like "I don't kno why duke is doing this to me!!!" Type shit. Who cares?! Dude just said he fucked ur own wife and gonna murder ur kids nigga!! You ain't gonna ride on him? If there is any time not to listen to Puff it's that one.

Big was responsible for Snoop and dogg pounds trailer getting shot up

 

[The Lonious Monk]

Enjoyed the first Wu-Tang Project and a few solo projects, but Death Row was a lot better.

I always wonder what Death Row could have accomplished if they left all the street shit/beef alone (and just focused on business) or if Dre & Suge remained cool.

Let's be real. Death Row only produced 3 great/classic albums: The Chronic, Doggystyle, All Eyez on Me; one good album: Dogg Food; and a bunch of meh. The Wu's first major run basically doubles that production, and they've produced good to borderline classic albums since then. You can like Death Row's music better. That's cool, but when it comes to actually putting out good music, Wu did that a lot better than Death Row.

I STRONGLY have to disagree with you on that. Like I said, 36 Chambers was dope.

BUT

The Chronic, Doggystyle, Tha Dogg Pound's Dogg Food, All Eyez on Me, Makaveli > Better than any album Wu-Tang (group or solo) put out.

Entertainment wise, even Death Row's "Above the Rim" and "Murder Was the Case" Soundtrack is on the same level of 36 Chambers and better than a lot of the solo projects.

And if we're talking about Death Row after Dre left and Pac died ... yeah Wu-Tang put our better material.

Well we can agree to disagree.

 

[a_list]

Death Row the Terrell Davis of rap labels

Wu-Tang Forever

Death Row is Good......yall niggas know the rest...lol

 

[LOLCL]

Wu Tang still has a prevalent influence on the east coast with hundreds of active members. Plus most of their main members still has an active career, and a new generation of wu-affiliated artists actually getting traction. I'll forever respect popa wu over Suge Knight.

 

[Shizlansky]

Wu has the biggest impact World wide when it comes to hip hop.

 

[The Nuisance]

Death Row represented the whole coast at one point in time. Other than that their influences were both major

 

[Brian B.]

Yea ok....Ya boys were blown out the gym....lol...Everybody that voted for the Wu cant be from NY/East....

Lol how many of them folks who voted Wu you think heard Witchdoctor's albums?

why I said it's biased on both sides

I'm a supporter of Both & heard a good amount from each

which is why my opinion is a lil more well rounded

Could care less about any of that you talkn, them niggas got molly-whopped.....You wasnt thinking about who heard of who prior to me dropping that screenshot nigga....lol

I kno you couldn't care less, which further proves my point of the bias

if your opinion ain't well rounded, it holds no weight to me

plus the albums my brother burned for me (36, Liquid Swords, Supreme, OB4CL, etc.)

after extensive listenin from both sides, sum members of Wu are interchangeable

DF's diversity is what tips the scales for them, imo

Tell it to the judge and all those bias niggas that voted for death row and the dungeon family....lol...foh

lol bruh, I said there's bias on both sides more times than not w/ these polls

I can at least formulate my opinion & give reasons for it

someone else in here tried to make an argument for Wu usin Rae (would've been better w/ Meth, but I digress)

but you're argument is "more people voted Wu", so you're goin w/ popular opinion, can't formulate your own opinion & give reasons why? You're jus bein a dickrider lmao

 

[caddo man]

Wu has the biggest impact World wide when it comes to hip hop.

If the entire world was on the East Coast yeah okay. But its not. In the 90s that had murals of Tupac and Death row in Turkey and Israel. Every club in Europe was playing Death row and Bad Boy music. Hell Japan and the other pacific country are defacto Cali states.

There certain parts of the country that couldnt tell you 3 members from WuTang. But they all know Dr Dre, Snoop and Tupac. More than likely knows Suge Knight just from TMZ fame.

Like I said earlier, this is a horrible comparison. Tupac and Dr Dre had careers before Death Row and Snoop push his career out on No Limit and beyond.

 

[5 Grand]

Well as it stands, Death Row is winning 40-36.

But you'd have to admit its close considering Death Row sold more records and had more commercial success.

Also, Death Row was the only label on the West Coast at the time, Wu Tang was just a fraction of what was going on in the East Coast. You still had The Fugees, Biggie, Ma$e, A Tribe Called Quest, LL Cool J and a gang of other groups.

 

[BobOblah]

Wu Tang is known worldwide too

The shit is about two collectives being compared. People have already admitted that next to Meth and maybe Dirty, none of the Wu members achieved the stardom that the top three in Death Row did, but that doesn't mean that Death Row was more recognizable or influential than the Wu. We could rattle off shit that people still do in their music that was popularized by the Wu. You can't really say that about Death Row. Hell, the Wu basically started the whole "reppin your collective first and foremost" type thing. Initially, Death Row was Dre, Snoop, and some other niggas on a record label. Death Row as a rap collective didn't really blossom until later.

OK, name some other relevant labels that were poppin on the West
