Is Bleek still signed? This is alright.
i tought that was a freestyle, but you can see that he wrote everything…
this guy is weak…
sorry…
Dope….
Not Afraid isn’t a bad record but that’s because of Em.
The beat sound like some Beyoncé and Rihanna type shit.
I’d never jack this instrumental.
I’m really getting tired of this ”jump on that dude’s beat” trend. Dudes should just make their own original music.
@ Markoni i agree bro….every hot song somebody make dudes gonna hope on it and make their own version ….i guess mutha fukaz cant make no hits ….
sucks dick.
@ Markoni and So Icy Boi!
Cosign both of yall. They don’t even stay away from tracks that the original artist MURDERED.If a nigga killed his song, leave it alone outta respect. Why killed what’s already been murdered? Now if the consensus is somebody wasted a hot track by not rocking it right, that’s a little different.IMO.
Overall I think it should ease up a lot. Trends like this are why I feel hip hop is eating itself alive. Instead of going outward and devouring new ground, we’re feeding off of each other. ANYBODY that comes up gets their whole style devoured by the rest of hip hop. GO BRING SOME FRESH FOOD TO THE TABLE JACKAL NIGGAS!
But what if you hop on someone elses beats, and still bring out new music in the future? I dont have a problem with people hoppin on various artists beats, it shows how versatile they are to be able to rhyme on any type of beat. Wayne did it with No Ceilings and you see how positive the reviews were for that. Its strictly for promotional purposes, to promote their skills to the people (and also to murder the best beats in the game at the moment) Aint like anybodies making money from hoppin on other peoples beats…at least not directly, indirectly it may benefit them in the future. I support it!
Bleek and The-Dream should get together and cover “The Girl Is Mine”. That would be soooooo ot. Seriously though. It’s an insult to the original artist (and their fans) when you hijack their shit and do worse on it. I have no problem with people freestyling to a known beat but claiming a song as your own in the name of tributing the original artist (when it sucks) is just embarrassing for everyone.
Not really a Memphis Bleek fan,but this is good.
LOL!! yeah…a nigga like Bleek jumping on the best rapper’s smash hit. yup good idea
if your name aint Jay-Z or Nas, you should never jump on Em’s beats!
Dope.
This guy has literally been one hit away his whole career.
I can’t call it.
First of all, IF you jack someone beat, use it better than the original. That’s unfathomable for an Em song which is why we rarely see one of his tracks turn into the “freestyle” beat of the month.
Secondly, When you hear this beat without Em, it kinda sux lol.
I always thought this beat sucked, the only thing that made Not Afraid a good song was Eminem with his rhymes and flow. If it wasn’t him originaly on this beat noone would pay any atention to it. I think boi1da should pay Eminem everytime this song is played cuz it only promotes his lame beat.
good job bleek. These rap nerds always got something extra to say.
I’ll be waiting for this to be premiered in the You Played Yourself section
Memphis Bleek is wack
none can rap on this beat Only eminem rules
STR888 FIAAA!! GOD BLESS!!!
f your name aint Jay-Z or Nas, you should never jump on Em’s beats!
^^^^

And Bleek? – He’ll Be 1 hit away his whole career, as long as Jay alive he’s a millionaire….and even if he dies he’s in Jay’s will somewhere….so he can just kick back and CHILL somewhere….oh yeah…..
He dont even have to write rhymes the Dynasty like Jay-Z money………….
It Last 3 Lifetimes.
