Melle Mel Talks about Rakim, Krs-One and Pac
"Melle Mel disses Rakim, KRS-One and Tupac Shakur. Ra, Kris and Pac might be in most heads' Top 10, but former Furious Five emcee Melle Mel doesn't think too highly of them. During a recent appearance on (New York) Power 105.1's Star and Bucwild morning show, Mel did the unthinkable and said Ra was "overrated with no stage presence." He then added that he "wouldn't put him in his Top 10 and that Rakim doesn't have the talent to drop a modern day Hip-Hop hit." Meanwhile, Mel said "people were blinded if KRS-One was their face of Hip-Hop." However, Kris was luckier than Ra and "barely scrapped" Mel's Top 10. Last but not least, Mel took a shot at Pac. The veteran lyricist compared Shakur to Hitler and said the fraudulent images he portrayed "brought down an entire culture."
Interesting. I dont really rate 2Pac so his comments about him don't really irk me, Rakim was an innovator but wasn't the greatest emcee (he was just one of the first to break through into the mainstream).
The only comment that i really disagree with is about KRS-1, he is still one of my favourite emcees even after all these years. He taught me alot when i was growing up, certainly alot more about my history than i was learning at school. The last BDP album i heard was Edutainment but all the BDP albums i have heard had a huge impact on my life.
Melle Mel was at the forefront of the movement and has faded over the years maybe its a ploy to get himself back into the game, controversy sells - we all know that.
