Why did hip hop fans reject Guerilla Black but accept Shyne?

LoL @ Thug ADDICT....... Reminds me of the nigga KRAZY soundin just like PAC.

But SMH @ the nigga Thug Addict trying to use the shameless reverse method by blatantly biting Mystical while screaming his name thru out the entire song in hopes of gaining some traction....

Seeing as BIG sounded like King Tee, and King Tee is from Compton, you could say that Guerilla Black sounded like King Tee not BIG haha

I actually bought that Guerilla Black album back in the day though, was pretty dope, but yeah he took BIG's style, he even had some of the same concepts and lines...

At the time I though Shyne did sound like abit like BIG, looking back though he really didnt, maybe because I got used to rappers literally jacking everyones style and voice , and that in comparison he really only had couple similarities, one being that he was on Bad Boy Records...

Guerilla Black and Tha Realest should of done a collabo album haha

Nvm just realized that's some mystikal biter I never heard of. Gotdamn.

Mystikal got him back on U Would if you Could tho lls he just didnt mention his name

@BlackAX410

For real? See I always thought that song was about T-Bo cause he came out around that time and was signed to C to kind of replace Mystikal.

Mystikal even said "you trying to sound like me, or Baton Rouge shit?"

I stand corrected.

yea Thug Addict was from BR nd i always thought Mystikal said "you trynna sound like me or a baboon nd shit" lls dude lauced badly

At the time Guerilla Black got a hit and sold a couple units

he just stopped making music,but while Shyne's voice,flow and Puff affiliation made him like BIG,Guerilla Black was a straight up copy and wasn't even from the East Coast

Shyne was an easier sale because he was at least really from BK

Both were BIG rip offs though,GB was just blatant and too unbelievable

 

[Lab Baby]

Cuz that fat nigga was literally one of the worst rappers to ever touch a mic. He dropped an album a few years back, I forgot the name. But this nigga was tryna sound like Kanye West, Ludacris, Young Jeezy and Spider Loc all on one joint. Then got the nerve to have a speech impediment. Nigga was wack, point blank.

 

[hnic1978]

It was said Guerrilla Black originally came out sounding like Mystikal in earlier recordings before he got signed to a major label then swiped Big's steez.

But ain't this nigga doing time in the bing now for credit card fraud?

lmao so he was on some thug addict shit?

R U SERIOUS???? THAT WAS GB???

My bad a dumb nigga moment I just caught what yall was tryin to say..........this dude should be ashamed of himself but whats funny i can tell the difference......he has nowhere near the lyrical range of Mystikal

 

[cheezymofo]

Guerilla Black was silly.

 

[Turfaholic]

LOL @ niggas saying he was trying to look like Biggie. Nigga what?!?! Who in the fuck tries to look fat, black, and ugly as ever?!?!

Shot out Rick Ross and his reason fans

 

[c.b.b.]

Shyne's voice was deep like Biggie's, but he didn't jack Biggie all the way down to the flow and movements.

Guerilla Black was an obvious Biggie jack, I'm sorry. I never bought his whole "I naturally rapped like Biggie so I switched it up to rap like Mystikal" excuse.
