Yeah the IQ of the video dropped 100 pointswhen they came on..

Asking Hurricane Chris and Souljah Boy about longevity is like asking Cap'n Crunch and Frankenberry how to fight diabetes.

If there weren't pop-ups with their names, no one would know who those clowns were.

lol for real some of those pop-ups with the names were needed for some of these guys.

the one i found comical was Cassidy seriously this guy is so full of himself that it's funny. "I'm on my 3rd album so i have longetivity" lol I like his battle rhymes but dude isn't that 'hot' but he seems to think he is in his head seriously.

Soulja Boy sure he got a lot of crappy songs I heard his album, but that's only by us (older) people. Kid's bump his shit all the time and give him a break for real he got lucky and his song caught attention, how can you hate on that? If you made a song just for the hell of it and it just so happened that it caught on even if you didn't make it with that intention and you got rich over it, does that mean you lack talent? That don't mean that you can't do some other type of songs so like LL Cool J said, I think Soulja Boy will eventually drop some other shit that gonna surprise people. He sure isn't a dumb kid from what i've read.

I wonder what 50 Cent or Eminem would've had to say about this. Or for that fact, what about Dr.Dre.

What allhiphop has just exposed was the difference in  inttelengence and it's clearly ovious that Bow Wow, Souljah Boy, & Hurricane chris don't know what the hell they're talking about, to remain relavent in this game i think its all about consistency and  just being yourself because at the end of the day when you're in your 40's  what part of your carrer do you have to look back on at your highpoints? so thats something you must look for

I agree with what heads before me said about the rise and dip between the different artists. I be feeling sometimes as if I need a translater for people from the south cause the words just don't come out clear enough to understand.

They shoulda asked more real ol schoolers about this. How you gon ask artists who just blew up this year what they know bout longevity? Only upside is that five years from now half those artists prolly gonna be watching that video and eating their own words while we laugh at them.
Who shoulda been on this:
Jay Z
Dr. Dre
Scarface
Bun B (R.I.P. Pimp C)
Talib Kweli
Eminem
Ice Cube
David Banner (just cause he's a smart muthafucka, and I know he'd say something good)
Nas
KRS One
Lil Wayne
RZA
Ludacris
Fat Joe
DMX

Oh, and 50 shoulda run in and punched Bow Wow in the jaw. "Don't throw stones if you live in a glass house, and if you got a glass jaw you should watch yo mouth/cause I'll break yo face"

Im out

Some of these guys will not be around for next summer so forget the Longevity,and how the hell you going to ask a butch of new artist about longevity.I'm not saying some of them are finished but come on Soulja boy,Hurricane Chris only one of them will be here next year while the other will be talking that come back but to never make the come back.Now on to Cassidy,He  had to be joking when he said he's longevity with three albums,come on how can people respect a artist that thinks he's so far ahead that he can't look back. Cassidy money roll isn't even that long so how does he feel he's been in the game that long... I do like the little happy meal but don't get to ahead of your own shit that you can't smell it coming back at you. when a artist that came out after you is making more cash then you thats when you need to take a longevity look into your whole style and see why is these niggas gettin in the door while your still on the walkway. This nigga soulja boy is chippin down on Cassidy fast and he don't even no it and the funny shit is Cassidy spits fire but people just don't catch it while soulja boy is spittin water ballons. There's only room for one to go on to the next level every year shit changes and next summer you will see a big drop in artist that was out this summer...
