dont get me wrong, they're talented up-coming MCs but since when were they top 5 selected? man on here are going on as if they've already taken over the scene when in reality they aint done shit except show some potential..
i think it was Taz or someone who was big on them from day then all of a sudden 50% of the forum thinks they're up there with ghetto and doogz??
wait till they prove themselves consistently for at least a half a year before making these wild statements

There's a big difference between bandwagons and people learning about people that aren't usualy talked about, a lot of the time this is the case but I do agree that when their work is released then these ratings will be more understood. Also I have rated guys like impulse for a veryyyyyy long bloody time. I think I even interviewed him for my blog a couple of years back.

I don't understand how you can bread someone on a forum where they don't even post. Like say Rinse came to the grimeforum thing and people are saying 'yeah bruv ur heavy, ur sick, ur amazing, ur top 1 selected' I could understand, them breading him, but right now and here, people are just saying they rate him as an MC.
Personally, I agree that they need to prove the levels by dropping some fire mix cd's to back up the hype they've had recently, but still, its peoples opinions, just because you don't agree with it, don't make them breaders, not everyone has to have your opinion init.

I have to support the other mods. I would have let your thread run having just gone back to it and read the first post, but someone else locked it and I don't want to undermine them by brining it back, Ill ask in the staff room.
Maybe you could have worded it differently though rather than band wagonning, I don't really see much of that- they are definately top 20, so they would be expected to have some sort of a fan base who like and talk up their music.
As for people like Buckfaster who work with them, just take their comments with a pinch of salt.

cmon you can get all technical on me, but he hasnt proved himself enough yet to be a top boy MC.. he had a buzz for like a week or so when his last mixCD dropped (which was disappointing), he had a buzz when he was rolling with dexplicit, ms dynamite and that for a little while, but when you think about it he was pretty much a nobody to most grime fans until his gyal started getting jiggy with a boxer on national TV.. when his mixtape drops (which i do expect to be good) and he continues to hold it down for a little while then maybe he'll have the credentials to come into consideration when man are chattin about the top boys in grime

if you're compiling a list objectively of MCs who deserve to be taken into consideration when naming the top, top MCs then he shouldnt be there. and that's what the other thread is for (i'm guessing from the way it's worded), not peoples personal favourites - that's a completely different thing. for example Ears is one of my personal favourites but i know he aint fucking with Skepta, who i personally dont like that much

I agree.
These new mc's that come out do a couple of raves/radio sets and spit on some tunes, are just ones to watch, because they haven't proven themseleves yet.
I thinks it's a piss take to artists like Frisco and Goodz who have proven themselves at a high level. If you think someone is a better spitter then someone else then fair enough, but the person your rating have they released anything yet? If they haven't carm down and keep an eye for there first mixtape.
It just feels like it's a race to rate the next up and coming MC/producer and when they DO start to blow you get the classic line "yeah I knew about him from day."

well he hasnt released 3 CD's of shit. he's released 1 inconsistent but overall moderately good CD in 2000 & Life, one shit CD with Ghetto Gospel(but still had a couple big tunes on it) and one of the better mixCDs that's been released in grime with Freedom Of Speech, not to mention merked countless radio sets over quite a long period of time.

why am i going to base my top 5 on who are the best? im going to base my top 5 on who i enjoy and listen to. music is down to opinion and preference, there is now way to measure who is better. if a boxer knocks another boxer out then he is the better fighter on the day... if a striker scores more goals than another then he is the better striker... music is purely preference and opinion so you cant call someone wrong.
nobody has said they are the best - someone said impulse COULD be the NEXT doogz. meaning he is showing potential with his conceptual and thought provoking music. nobody said impulse is the best or rinse is the best. people just like them.
I diagnose this as a class A example of hating for the sake of hating. maybe you dont get the big thing, but others do. You have no right to call an opinion incorrect. no right.

Opinions are subjective. You seem to have a hard time grasping that other people's opinions can be different to yours, and valid nonetheless. If you can't deal with the fact that people have differing opinions, and only want one view to be shared on everything, then forums are not for you.

nobody has said they are the best - someone said impulse COULD be the NEXT doogz. meaning he is showing potential with his conceptual and thought provoking music. nobody said impulse is the best or rinse is the best. people just like them.
I diagnose this as a class A example of hating for the sake of hating. maybe you dont get the big thing, but others do. You have no right to call an opinion incorrect. no right.
"someone said impulse COULD be the NEXT doogz"
i never said he didn't have the potential to be one of the best in scene
"nobody said impulse is the best or rinse is the best"
yes they did, which is what set me off
"music is purely preference and opinion so you cant call someone wrong."
sure, but at the same time there are clearly people who are better than others. Bob Marley is undeniably a better musician than Wiley, but i personally would rather listen to Wiley.
you just don't understand what i'm saying. i took the point of the "who's the best MC" thread, correctly or incorrectly, as "who has earned the right to be considered the #1 in the scene right now": which you have to look at objectively (that means without bias, without taking favouritism into consideration, FYI) just look at their technical ability combined with their achievements and past record
you think i would go into a thread titled "who's your personal favourite MC" and go around slewing everyone who says JME ?? that's what you seem to be taking this for, when it's not

Opinions are subjective. You seem to have a hard time grasping that other people's opinions can be different to yours, and valid nonetheless. If you can't deal with the fact that people have differing opinions, and only want one view to be shared on everything, then forums are not for you. After the car crash that was your wretch 32 thread, I would have thought you'd come to this realisation yourself.
t.
the wretch32 thread was flame-bait designed to piss his fans off. i said inside that i only made it cos i thought i could change the title of the thread later on.
and just forget the other point, this is going nowehere. people are too idiotic and obsessed with their opinions being taken seriously to understand what i'm attempting to say.

here's the definition for 'objectively'
"5. not influenced by personal feelings, interpretations, or prejudice; based on facts; unbiased: an objective opinion."
understand that i'm not dismissing any of you wankers' opinions i could care less whether you personally would rather listen to his music than Ghetto's

true, but you can still look at things objectively to an adequate enough extent that you can roughly rank musicians.

Why is objectivity something you crave so much? Why can't you cope with others subjective opinions?
If you care so much about ratings, do a survey or something.

Basically the moral of the story is that people like who they like and will always have their favourites. Some might of only heard of Impulse and Rinse 2 weeks ago, some may of followed them from way back when. This kind of thing happens a lot though, people throw things up like Rinse >>>>> strawberry doughnut and Impulse >>>>> Jacket Potato and a lot of people just copy it. The best will always be debated but no one can really help who they genuinely like and prefer. Even if they haven't got 50 mixtapes out etc. Hype always pops out and when the release drops then we will know if they deserved it or not.

and also: (this will probably make someone cry and attempt to call me an invalid again)
opinions aren't all equally credible. like the committee of boxing experts that gather to decide an official pound4pound ranking's opinions on boxing hold more weight and are more informed than most other boxing fans, so they are eligible to make these decisions.
and i'm not even saying that mine is particularly credible in the grand scheme of things. just an example against Scribbler's argument of it being impossible to decide if someone's better than someone else in an opinion based subject
and general consensus also comes into play

Yes ive listened to him. I'm not denying he may have "talent" as you like to call it. But he is not even touching the top 20 mark of this scene. From no where his name has been mentioned and now people are putting him top 3 with ghetto & doogz. I mean wtf is that all about show me his best tune right now and I'll give you an honest opinion of that tune.

This is what I always base my top mcs on, i can't say who's the best technically because people enjoy different things. My top lists are always based on who I enjoy listening to, I've never rated BTR as one of my tops becuse i haven't heard that one tune that i really like from him once i've heard one of them from an mc i follow them and my interest either dies out or grows.

favourite Rinse track is 'Real Talk' (its not over the real talk beat).
i dont think its going on any mixtapes, id upload it but they dont want any material about just yet.
if you want to hear more of him now, look for the Gallas One Vocals download... Dimples mixtapes, there some tracks on Impulses last CD... err.... theres a track on Chipmunks 'Whatever the Weather vol2'... The Axe fm downloads... he is about, trust.
