Janelle Monae rappin >>> Nicki Minaj

[rose.amoureux]

Dont know about her rapping but she outsings most "top" female artists today.

 

[young_reezy]

plus she from my side of the turf, kansas city, kansas ya dig, props!

Janelle Monae is the definition of a weirdo, and saying "unpredicable like the weather" doens't make her sound like a retard, but it definitely makes her sound like a dumbass.

As opposed to: "(retard voice) And I be coming off the top, asbestos"?

 

[100%Sagittarius]

Why does she have to be "weird" or "retarded"? Because she's not like everyone else? She's different..... she's an another option, and thats not a bad thing.

she's a self identified weirdo..not in a bad way tho..

As much as that may be corny...at least it makes sense. Asbestos falls from the ceiling/top of the house....while the weather is predicted every freakin day.

Yeah, I think 'cause she doesn't SOUND like an idiot ya'll are overhyping her.

unpredictable like the weather.

i stay floating like a feather.

some peole get high and some people get low, I stay in the middle so all my people could know.

There's really not too much that's really that incredible here (though the Dominique Dawes line was ill).

Don't be so excited for a female alternative that you're calling her rapping amazing.

Based on this song, she's ok. That's about it, though.

Who called her rappin amazing..yall reachin

LOL ^^this^^ The song is cool, and she's versatile.

Just for the title's sake, I think JM is a better singer w/ touches of rap than NM is a rapper w/ touches of singing. But I think that they are just in different lanes and not really comparable. NM isnt the standard of rapping, but she has her own lane.

Wow, she murdered it. I don't even remember BoB or Lupe's verse. I was wondering why she always wear the same thing, and she addressed it in the song.

i'm pretty sure that's the equivalent of amazing.

 

[shadb33]

Nicki Minaj sings? I never heard her sing before. And yea Janelle Monae is a singer first. This thread was really just showing the music video. I knew the title would bring people in lmao.

 

[shadb33]

Look PG County nigga, first tell these hoodrats round here to get they toe game up. I'm tired of walking around PG Plaza and these hoes toes look like dried up raisins. Second of all, that aint the equivalent of amazing, he just said she murdered it which she did. Rappin includes a lot of shit besides a couple lines that yall deem wack. Her flow was nice, it was cohesive and went with the theme of the song, etc. And 3rd, that was one dude.

i can concur.

The title would bring people in, huh? yeah, you right. lol. Job well done.

First and foremost, you should probably stop walking around PG Plaza. The caliber of females in there has only declined since I was in high school. That's rough you comparing them to dried raisins since raisins are already dried grapes. Eh.

Second, she was cool. Murdered is a bit of a stretch. Then he can't even remember Lupe & BOB on the song?! Really? And fair enough, it was one dude.

Anyway, you said you were trying to get folks in here and I'm glad you did. I probably never would've heard this song. I haven't heard Tightrope once on KYS or PGC.

Difference of opinion. I don't think she's outrapping Minaj...yet. I'd love to hear her do some more stuff, though.

[kingofbama205]

That was a tight song..and all 3 of em killed it.

 

[Shizlansky]

Somebody in here actually said she a combination of A. 3000 and L. Hill

If thats not reaching i dont know what is..

and i thought she was kinda animated like N.M. be with all her movements.

but she straight

 

[Bcotton5]

I like her, Nicki Mineezy the GOAT too, Free Weezy

 

[Bcotton5]

Yooo, I like her, just peeped the original version with Big Boi, good music right there

 

[Stew]

Yeah, I'm a Lupe fan but: BOB'S verse>Lupe's verse

Surprised all the skateboarders didnt come out the skatepark about this.
