Since people were comparing Canibus and Drake, lets compare the first verse of "Man of the Year" by Drake with the first verse of "Poet Laureate II" by Canibus.

Man of the Year - Drake ft. Lil Wayne
Damn!
I done walked in here
Lookin' like the mothaf***in' man of the year
Think I had the mothaf***in' plan of the year
Which was simply to make groupie fans of my peers
And I get my girl whatever she desire
And my niggas get whatever they require
These rappers old, I'm the reason they expire
Plus I got a city that I Carey like Mariah
Damn!
That punch line was predictable
I still got you shittin' bricks, homie, quit the bull
And we don't need new members
To me the clique is full
And I be getting' the same women that tip the pool
Believe or not
I receive a lot
So, I be wearing the same Gucci that Jeezy got
And I be buyin' the Louie that Kanyizzy cop
And I be rippin' the same reords that Weezy rock
This shit is east pot
That's why I'm ready, man
I'd never copy Norbit like eddie, man
Did you get it? Eddie Murphy was in Norbit
Or was it way over your head?
Did you forfeit?
Yeah, I take a woman shopping in a store quick
Her a** big, she just tryin' to make a four fit
Yeah, they need to issue out a recall
I'm goin' up and they headin' into a freefall
The fundamentals are needed, you playin' street
And I was out at BET, but I didn't see ya'll
These skee-low rappers wishing they could be tall
Lettin' all their fake friends use them like a free stall
Yep!

Poet Laureate II - Canibus
Yo, why is the ripper so ill?
That would be a unpardonable breach of confidence for me to reveal!
He said one day all eyes would be on me
when they look up in the sky and see the neon 'C'
Rhymes inscribed on a nickel disk encased
in gla** with an ion beam for longevity
For more then 10 centuries, impressions and memories
the first time-machine inventor will mention me
Canibus was a visionary indeed
he believed light could travel in multiples of c
The organic supercomputer that solved the mysteries
of Klein-Kaluza with 2 blue metric rulers
Liked Cool J, but thought Stephen Jay Gould was cooler
and he never liked to propagate rumors
Smoked Canary Island cigars
liked American luxury cars and beautiful Asian broads
He had a strong mind, he used to philosophize
about rhymes while he was pruning his Bonsai
He claimed that he had written the greatest rhyme of all time
but he would never take it out his archives
He wrote 2 songs per day
and was constantly was experimenting with his wordplay
In his youth he did a report on the Sloan Digital Sky survey
he got an F but he deserved an A
I followed his career from the first day
it seemed the lack of support contributed to his inert ways
I seen him put in 24 hour workdays
with deferred pay, undeterred by the word "shame"
Public humiliation was the worst pain
he was spinnin out of control like a cla** 5 hurricane
He said he wouldn't want another emcee to suffer the same
especially when there's nothing to gain
He was the illest alive but nobody would face it
he spit till his toungue was too torched to taste, it
properly funded corporations carbon-dated his latest creations
to extract the information
They found it utterly amazing
they claimed the body of his work was the same thing as a priceless painting
Never mattered to him, the art galleries hated him
cause Thomas Kinkade called, said he would take 10
Complete enigmas wrapped in puzzles encrypted in language
with sound but without shape or signature
Kept files in his garage, on MS-DOS
in a fire-proof pod, we thought it was odd
Outside there was a shed with an Oppenheimer lock
he apparently kept more wax then Madame Tussaud's
We were in total awe, cause it blew our minds
so many rhymes that were intricately designed
He WAS Poet Laureate of his time
and if you dont mind, I'd like to share some of his rhymes

Anyone with half a brain can tel Canibus>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Drake. And Drake is average at best. Even the beat on Poet Laureate II>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>the beat on Man of the Year

drake- man of the year: LINK REMOVED/?ydzdyw2myxy

DAMN SON!!! That track is fiya!!!!!!!!






























































Not. What where you expecting? The beat sounds like a million other r'n'b songs. When Drake's rhymes aren't *yawnz* they're played out and old punchlines. Another problem: Lil wayne. This must be the most over-rated rapper this decade.

Ohk, how does pm work? Anyway, right now I'd say self exploration; I'm really a scholar of ideas trying to figure out which I agree with and extending those in shaping my stance on certain things. However, economic correctness seems to be a reality I can't escape, I mean I'd have loved to do Literature and language but I chose the more finacially fulfilling route (the background you spoke of largely influenced this because of its perceptions of success), if this is what you mean by being economically correct then if I'm not already I eventually will be.

You should study what you want to study, not what you think will make you rich. Let's say you study literature, which you love, and you become a famous author and sell tons of books? Or you become a literature professor? Let's say you instead study subject X (like economics or w/e), which you think will make you rich, and you still get a bad job? Or, you get a decent job, but you're bored out of your mind coz you're doing a job you have no interest in or even hate?
Beside, can't you study, say, literature AND economics (or w/e you think will get you money)?

Nah G, just the zooloo freak.. We patiently waiting for u to murk him gangsta, do ur thing

comparing drake to canibus is a straight fail if you ask me

Wow people! Check this out! The first intelligent post Mad has ever made! Somebody take a screen shot! (I aint putting that shit on my computer...)

canibus almost had a life but he decided to choose a wrong path in his career, i mean that blatant because if he made all the right choices he would've been here right now, right?

drake is a fresh artist, he is new to everything and is on the verge of making a legacy for himself. the least you people can do is to listen to what he has to offer the world instead of judging him before his career can even begin. he dropped a mixtape, sounded like an album and had the streets buzzing and talking about his name. i bet your sisters are on mxit now talking about his joints. i so wish drake lasts long and proves you haters wrong. ill be laughing my a** off to the music store

And then he's back to his normal self...

If you want to show me Drake is a good artist, up one track you think will convince me and I'll listen to it  (don't up You the best).

That's my point. They're all probably going to be one-hit wonders. I never said they hadn't been around a while, I said they had ONE track that people like (by that I mean most people, like major air-play). But everyone is still saying they're going to be major, they're "dope", and the worst description I've heard - "fresh". To me they sound like a million other one hit wonders who had one nice track with a dope beat. And I'm not listening to no Drake r'n'b album thankyou.

What is it about these artists: Drake, Kid Cudi, Jeremih etc; they release ONE track that people like, and then everyone's like "oh this boy is dope. He's gonna be the net big thing" Uh, no. There's just another one hit wonder. And really, it's only the BEAT that they like. You can't say Drake or any of the others I mentioned have fresh lyrics. Drake's song You the f***ing Best or w/e it' called, the lyrics sound like a million other r'n'b songs. Come to that, the beat aint that good either. Goes to show, must be a really slow time in he pop industry

General Discussion / Face > Body According to the Nerds

« on: October 14, 2009, 09:27:02 PM »

Scientists have discovered that if you're trying to attract a partner, an athletic body helps but a good-looking face is more important.The science of attraction is complex; researchers have highlighted numerous cues that may affect how attractive someone is. Suggestions have ranged from facial symmetry to the ratio between body volume and height.

Many previous experiments tended to focus on just one of these factors at a time. But a study published in Evolution and Human Behavior is among the first to shed light on the relative importance of two traits.

The scientists set out to look at the relative importance of faces and bodies in making someone attractive. They showed 127 male and 133 female volunteers ten images of members of the opposite sex. The experiment took place over the internet, letting the scientists test more subjects than would have been possible if they had tried to get everyone into the lab.
