Verzuz NYC Get Ready The Lox Vs Dipset August 3rd
- Thread starter dik cashmere
- Start date
Something that needs to be said....
And it's kinda the same reason many slept on the lox in the first place
Of course Jada mvp
But this was the definition of a team win
All week it was STYLES leading
Right @dik cashmere ?
Styles was out promoting going viral battling Jim Jones (salute Jimmy too)
Jada was oddly quiet...
And then boom
And that stage presence, improvisation, clear vocals, preparation, veteran experience, routines, playlist...
They PREFORMED. No lip sync.
Styles held his weight and did his part
Sheek held his weight and DID HIS PART.
They looked better sounded better and seemed more genuine
And ummm were on time
All that matters
Respect the audience they will respect you

Ok...See my uptown brothers are a little shell shocked this morning
Understandable
But the OGs saw this but just didn't think it was gonna happen
This WAS Dip Set pretty much their whole career
Fractured.
When Dip is focused? Yes they can be considered the hip hop Beatles
That is why initially I immediately thought they had this hands down easy...
Remember @dik cashmere ?
But the issue is this whole show was kinda indicative of they whole career a microcosm
Cocky brash bold (which isn't necessarily bad)
Cam late wants to make an entrance
Freaky trying to make everyone laugh and stay together
Julez thinks HE the reason people came out
So Jimmy has to hold it down
Sound familiar
Jimmy thinks his records are ALL HITS
ALL OF THEM
Even the ones we ain't heard.
Santana thought he didn't even have to rap cause the audience would say all his lines
The reason they lost is all about preparation
They got that Harlem attitude
"We gonna win cause we SHOWED UP"
The Lox forever got that hunger
That underdog stepchild we gonna out WORK YOU mentality
WE GON MAKE IT.
That's Yonkers sh*t
Diplomats had all the weapons necessary
But they ain't know HOW TO PROPERLY use them
No game plan either.
So they couldn't adjust
And worse... they ain't RESPECT THE AUDIENCE.
And they ain't really respect their own legacy and records enough to present them in the best light.

Cam could have saved the day if he had did
357 and let em know
dressed in pink
and then brought out Mason for horse and carriage
And then hit them with
I hear you both...
It was crazy how that record popped.
I always thought it was overrated
But it was HUGE.
And that opening sample was what SHOULD have been the beat in my opinion
But it just connected and went "viral" before viral was even a thing.
Ring tones sports arenas etc etc all played it
It was every where
Somethings are just unexplainable
And everyone ended up singing it
And yeah MANY thought it was corny
Also Jay Z responding to it gave it a lot of extra legs.
But I don't think anyone really plays it like that outside NY uptown specific.

I am sure someone does. Jada actually knows them.
"I don't live in Miami. I don't live in Colorado"....Fuck that supposed to mean JadaNobody lives in Colorado lol
“I dont do instagram, i dont do twitter, this what i do nigga”
{who shot ta beats drops}
it was really done right there
Song was ass, it was just catchy and came out in the right(ringtone)era
That's what we been saying.
Jada came out with his timbs tied. Everyone in ny knows what that means. Dipset didn’t see this coming
Cam told jada they the best side dishes (peas and gravy) in hip hop.
I LOL'd
I LOL'd
Best Bars of the thread
Jada gonna made at hell you ain't send him that line last night

What was really funny is he said that in front of Freaky and Santana
And crushed they souls
Stray shots are the worst.
Lox is a group...Dipset is a crew...it showed last night
And that whole crew kept on taking up the whole damn stage like they were performing as well
Anybody mention how Sheek was the muscle?
He was like don't play nothing yet I just wanna look at these pussies for a sec.
When he wasn't rapping he walking like a gorilla.
Dipset brought male groupies!!
And that late shit wasn't cute at all.

My guy Cam got booed in the Garden. I know it was a bad night for everyone in Harlem and our guy @shaddyvillethug I hope you guys are ok.
on another note fellas goto page one and read comments from everyone who said The Lox was gonna get cooked. Imma need some cats to fall on their swords.
Yeah but even the core members was rolling like a crew...Lox performance was just tighter and at a higher level...everybody knew their roles and played their position....the "Lox are brothers, Dipset are business partners" quote below sums it up perfectlyAnd that whole crew kept on taking up the whole damn stage like they were performing as well
It doesn't help that Lox are actually better rappers so Dipset definitely needed a tighter set and to let their true advantage, their beats and overall vibe, come through....Jimmy stopping to put on a chain right when his big song about to drop smh....Cam stopping to try to force a freestyle when he bout to drop a hit...all of this occurring while they getting their ass beat...how can vets be so bad at reading the crowd?
My guys got their ass whipped
*dead
