KBlakk05 Posted March 24, 2005 Report Share Posted March 24, 2005 "Rap now is a circus of clowns A whole lot of lip from clicks I'll probably rap circles around" / Royce Da 5'9 (Boom) "Man it's like a circus with a bunch of clowns With a bunch of clicks that I probably rap circles around" / Will Smith (Lost & Found) I wouldn't consider it biting, especially considering it's a hook - plus, this is hip hop/rap music, no ideas original - everyones a fan, and everyone's a listener - everyone has their own favorite line, etc. dont look to deep into itq Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigted Posted March 24, 2005 Report Share Posted March 24, 2005 I thought Eminem said a line similar 1st in a song if I'm not mistaken, maybe not, someone could've said that before, well everyone says "Yes Yes Y'all" and "Somethin' Like Dis" too, there's millions of songs out there that we don't know, a lot of lines in hip-hop get repeated over without even realising, I write a lot of rhymes myself but I could've of wrote some rhymes that somebody else I never listen to might've said before and I wouldn't know.

Frenetic Posted March 24, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2005 THe thing is that "Boom" is considered a hiphop classic. Royce's best song. produced by premier. So this is either a way for will to salute royce.. or it's biting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JusticeKnight Posted March 24, 2005 Report Share Posted March 24, 2005 This is not biting cuz everyone does it!!!! They do it with songs, or artists that they like to give them props. Happens all the time. People qoute 2pac and biggie ALL the time :afro: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxFly Posted March 24, 2005 Report Share Posted March 24, 2005 I think he's giving a salute to Royce. Don't think he would just steal hommie's rhyme, trying to bite him. It's done all the time, people are always seeing old rhymes from back in the day, but in this case, it's relevant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Hero1 Posted March 24, 2005 Admin Report Share Posted March 24, 2005 most choruses for songs are taken from old school emcees and tracks..half of em from sugrarhill gang aint nothin new.. maybe royce got it from another track that will got it from..maybe will has never even heard that track or maybe it was a little salute to it.. no big deal either way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guest Posted March 24, 2005 Report Share Posted March 24, 2005 thats the reason why Nas said in "ETHER" adressed to jay-z: So little shorty's gettin gunned up and clapped quick How much of Biggie's rhymes is gon' come out your fat lips? Wanted to be on every last one of my classics You pop ****, apologize, nigga, just ask Kiss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigted Posted March 24, 2005 Report Share Posted March 24, 2005 (edited) THe thing is that "Boom" is considered a hiphop classic. Royce's best song. produced by premier. So this is either a way for will to salute royce.. or it's biting I doubt it was a bigger classic than "Boom Shake The Room!", I never heard the track so I wouldn't know. :cwm: I personally think people throw around that word classic too much these days, but that's another discussion we should have. Yeah I don't think there's nothin' wrong with giving props, I do that too when I write rhymes, I'll give props to all my favorites like JJFP, Nas, 2Pac, Chuck D, LL Cool J, and Rakim, but I doubt FP would bite, he said it himself before on "My Buddy": "Please stop biting, please don't immitate", so why would he bite then? I'm sure the "Lost and Found" song sounds nothin' like Royce 5'9's "Boom" Edited March 24, 2005 by bigted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
