JusticeKnight Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 Its good to be back!!!! I've been gone for sometime after some misconstrued statements a while ago, but I'm Back with a new obervation and question for y'all. Have you noticed that ALL Rappers need backup rappers when they are performing live, everyone except WILL SMITH!!!! You see at rap shows like 5 other rappers raping with the main rapper, except Will Smith!!! All he needs is Jazzy on the wheels, and mic in his hand. :jazzy: My question is: Do you think that Will should have backup Rappers or keep it the way it is? Is he effective with just himself or does he need others, when he runs out of breath???? Thoughts?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da Brakes Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 Will does use 'hype men' when rapping! Everytime I see him do party starter he has hype men. This might also be to add to the energy tho! From what i've seen tho Will doesn't need a hype man! He can command the stage with just him and Jazzy! I find hype men annoying anyway!

Vipa Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 And There is notyhing wrong with having people on stage with you. It's not that you NEED them...They just have hype men. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcpbball30 Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 Yeah, I have noticed that, too. These rappers nowadays never do a song by themselves. Some hype men at the right time for effect, like Will and Party Starter are okay, but like with Mike Jones last night, too many are ridiculous.

JamesUK Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 I've seen LL Cool J, and Common perform without hype men aswell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JumpinJack AJ Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 I wouldn't call them "back-up rappers." They are just his "posse" i guess. I don't know why they are there tho'...they don't bring anything 2 the show or the song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcpbball30 Posted June 30, 2005 Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 Yeah, LL and Common are legitimate, good rappers, like Will. Only the lousy ones need that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JusticeKnight Posted June 30, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2005 The lousy ones need alot cuz they dont know how to control their breath well.....MIKE JONES!!!!!!! is a perfect example Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
