"I'm a bit hungry you know cuz/ look, and i don't mean no rice and peas/ better know i'm on the grind i want p's/ dont bring beef to me coz i'll squeeze"

Zoop zoop zoop...

Lightening doesn't really get the recognition round here but i think he's decent. He's bars can be as entertaining as jendors, he's a hard worker plus he's been doing this ting for a while now.

He more than holds it up against griminal in this clip

What do you lot think?

[Nine Bar]

Ive never rated him to highly because i dont think he can be a proper artist (if that makes sense) On sets sometimes i throw up a gunfinger or two like him, ghetts and devs on westwood was alot, i didnt cop his new cd purely because i see him as a set emcee and thats it, if anyone tells me diff i may d/l just to see...

also what beat is that on the clip its f'd!!

[Danny Trejo]

i have no problem at all with him. A 'set emcee' is for the most part my favourite type of MC, as much as i'll buy a mixtape or ten.

[Peppergrizzle]

its true he hasn't got the dynamics of a proper artist yet but who knows he may progress. I could be wrong but I just got the feeling that a lot on people on here don't even rate him as a set emcee.

As for the beat I've no idea what it's called but i concur, f'd indeed!

[Leng Man Louie]

nah man u can't compare lights 2 jendor

jendor on a bad day >>>> lights on a good day

[Peppergrizzle]

...also I can't remember who but i'm sure when I heard a set recently he was sending for either tintchy or someone in the bbk camp?

[Peppergrizzle]

nah man u can't compare lights 2 jendor

jendor on a bad day >>>> lights on a good day

Thats true but I still think they're in the same vein in terms of the the joke they bring to the mic and the images they portray. Both of them are literal light weights but go on say like they run the roads

[adidasgrandad]

lightnins swag. been around since lord of the mics and aint improved one bit

[Nine Bar]

lightnins swag. been around since lord of the mics and aint improved one bit

dont agree with that, when he first came in the scene he was very very shit now hes just average, he has improved a lot though, mainly down to barrin with ghetto so much

[Peppergrizzle]

lol i wasn't a fan at first but he's style has grown on me. In a scene where so many have prematurely put the mic down, you have to at least respect someone who has managed to hang around like a bad smell

[Peppergrizzle]

dont agree with that, when he first came in the scene he was very very shit now hes just average, he has improved a lot though, mainly down to barrin with ghetto so much

"i'm the reason the youngaz are good"

real talk, there are times when lights is spitting and ghetto's influence is blatent

[adidasgrandad]

dont agree with that, when he first came in the scene he was very very shit now hes just average, he has improved a lot though, mainly down to barrin with ghetto so much

still sounds shit so makes no difference

[phen]

he's got slightly better in the last few years but he's still rubbish

[Danny Trejo]

nah, he isn't that bad.

[Leng Man Louie]

c dat dnt entertain me or make me larf i jus fink "FAKE" but jendor is apprntly road altho he cudnt swing wiv ne1 lol, short man syndrome im guessin

[fuk off]

nah man u can't compare lights 2 jendor

jendor on a bad day >>>> lights on a good day

Real talk Jendor is levels above lightin. Lightin is any guy

[EllaDecember]

he is good on this but still griminal is better than him any day.

lol jollof rice and fufu bars are alot though but...
i've got bars upon bars >> jollof rice & fufu

[Leng Man Louie]

lol ppl love barz about food its lyk eatin is gully lmao

[Laid Back]

safe for dat

[Y W]

Lightnin' is a 'not bad' mc, i agree he is a 'set emcee' I've got his mixtape, i'm not gonna lie iwas kinda shiit. Only got like 2/3 good tracks i think! I think everyone in greengate whose on mi has surpassed him; Griminal, Lil Nasty, Brutal

[Retrofreak]

Lightnin is Ghetto's Spliff Star.

[Skeptical]

what's this beat called

[Skeptical]

anyone know?

[Cooks]

I'd agree hes a set MC, i cant see how u can compare him with the likes of Jendor & Griminal though.

The beat is alot.

[D*evil*s]

hes improved since dat bionics vs y.narsty set....

dat mixtape was iight...

[Shower_Face]

"Asalam-aleikum, thats how I greet ya..."

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

P.S. I'm not a fan. The only set I think he showed levels on was on Westwoods with Ghetto & Devlin.

[Peppergrizzle]

lol ppl love barz about food its lyk eatin is gully lmao



eating that good food, cooked food is very gully trust me. When I play football i'm notorious (no hype) for my boundless energy. I attribute it to my no nonsense, no junk food approach to healthy eating, healthy living. I eat good, shit good and sleep good. Consequently I always have a competitive edge over the man thats smoking a cigarette and eating a pork pie before kick off.

....i'd say that lights is to ghetto what memphis bleek is to jay Z. They're both adequate emcees that are unfairly labeled as swag because they both operate in the shadow/ vicinity of much better spitters

[BananaMan]

and what mc runs the roads mate? abit of an unfair point against them realli.

[Green City]

dont ever compare lightning to jendor lol

thats like comparing fabregas and keith gillespie

[JACK YOU]

Lightning was good on Ghetts Birthday set, but you still can't compare him to Jendor.

['nuum general]

there's worse MCs, he's nothing special but he's listenable most of the time. He has a couple of hype bars for the raves as well

[slu-wasteguy]
