Hopsin is a fucking cornball.
Let me start by saying this, Hop has skills as a rapper, and could be great. I enjoy a LITTLE of his work.
But really, am I the only one who sees right through Hopsins gimmick?? His gimmick is extremely corny, and I honestly don't see how any grown man could enjoy his music. He markets himself towards kids. The same kids I.C.P. marketed themselves to. His fans are like this generations Juggalos really, and just as many of I.C.P.s fans do, once they grow up a little, they're going to grow right out of his music. He goes after the "shock factor" more than 90% of rappers. His senseless dissing is rather annoying honestly, and is just another part of his gimmick. It's the good 'ol 50 Cent way into the game. He goes after rappers he know won't respond to him and ones that are easy targets. They honestly don't even count as a diss in my opinion. For a diss, click here. You can just tell that he is striving for fame by listening to his music. It lacks passion, and his gimmick just backs up that he's striving for fame. Did anyone actually listen to "Gazing At The Moonlight??" That is a perfect example of Hopsin being gimmicky as fuck, and not even doing his gimmick well. lol at that terrible album. He also has some of the corniest fucking lines I have ever heard. Really, some are just absolutely horrible. People say he is lyrical, but if you actually dissect his lyrics you'll quickly realize they are rather simple. For example, here, here, and here. If you haven't noticed, his music is extremely repetitive. His lyrical content, beats, hooks, everything is full of repetitiousness. His production, mediocre at best. His hooks, absolutely horrible. He basically jacked early 2000 Em, except with no passion at all.
P.S. I find it funny how he will openly diss a rapper by name dropping if he knows they wont respond, or he knows they wont fire back. But he had to subliminally diss the Game, here, because he knows Game would have fired back, and probably murked him with a diss. And I'm not a Game fan at all.
I understand, dudes got a nice flow, decent wordplay from time to time, and has a few catchy songs, but what in the fuck is it that makes people ride this dudes junk the way they do??

HipHopFan said:I like how you used Hot 16's, Ill Mind of Hopsin 4 and Sag My Pants to discredit his ability of lyrics. Those aren't lyrical songs, there not supposed to be. There just funny songs, life isn't serious 100% of the time. That's what's appealing about him. He can be funny and identify with a select group of people. And like Hopsin has said before, if dissing rappers gets you somewhere, let's see you do it. Also, Hopsin has said Michael Jackson inspires most of his hooks. You'd have been better off saying Hopsin copied Eminem's style of rapping. All in all, this is an unnecessary rant and our comments are probably just as unnecessary because no amount of convincing will make you like Hopsin's music. Move on.

because of this single reply from you Alex i will discard anything i read from you in the future and consider you a close minded, ill-informed, 15 year old.
to think down on someone/rapper is completely fine, everyone has their own opinion, yours just happens to be the wrong one lol. no but seriously... to openly admit that you didnt read the OP and think that you can actually add something to the conversations is a blatantly obvious example of your stupidity. :)

You are incorrect faggot. I don't just like artists because they are on Strange. I don't like Ces Cru, Prozak, Big Scoob, and I could care less about Lynch.
Brian Sliggs said:Yeah. I bet you would fucking love hopsin if you never heard of him before and he was a new signee onto strange..
Alucard said:He makes good music.
Alex M said:Yep. The way he presents and carries himself is a joke.

Good post. Valid point.
Blizzum said:I like hop i listend a little more to him now and he is decent and all but i just want to point out a few things in your rant.
you state how corny his gimmick is. Well this is just from my point of view but damn near everyone in the game has a corny gimmick, so he is not the only one. As for the shock factor thing. Your right he his useing it a bit. But so have other rappers. Tyler The Creator and the rest of OF. NWA when they first came out. i mean its all a marketing schime at the end of the day. he does it to sell his music and he will keep doing as long as people keep buying his music. But ur right. i think if i focused more on just putting all of his heart into every single track he puts out then he can be a great artist.
