he aint trying to out do the classic ….u niggas is stupid young ass kid but he knows how to choose a beat ….instead of jumping on black and yellow type beats he rather jump on classic type beats and that alone already separates him from the old and young rappers .
Man I bet the older brother is jealous as fuck about all this attention Diggy is getting when he was the one that originally wanted the rap career. His little brother Diggy is way doper than him. Diggy got Premier hosting his mixtaope and shit.
Ok I just gotta keep it real for a minute. 1st off mobb deep is classic , I bought the infamous album when it came out and mobb deep was around the same age as Diggy is now. Ill say that Diggy does have skill , but whats missing today in these new kids music is heart and soul. If you listen to that mobb deep album from 95 you can tell they had some life experience and you can tell that what their rappin about is real to them. Im just sayin that sometimes these child celebrity rappers need to get on the mic and tell us something real or about their perspective , that makes it special. It dont have to be all deep or sad it just has to be heart felt and said with passion behind it. If your gonna use a classic beat , then really study what made it classic in the first place. But shout out the Diggy though , I just think he needs to live a little longer then put down his thoughts with substance behind it as well as skill…
Out of all this ‘new school’ skinny jean shit i can fuck with Diggy. Rev definatly raised him on the right music, and him rappin’ over their beats shows his respect to them, so props man.
this isn’t bad…i’d rather listen to this then anything by drake, lil wayne, etc. no disrespect if your a fan of them but this just sounds hotter to me. this kid can flow. premier is hostin his mixtape and he’s going over nothing but old school hip hop bangers. should be interesting.
good lord…Pee gonna have an attack after listening to this bullshit…that beat way too hardcore for his chimpmunk flow…stop it young buck…stick to the Drake lane…
Wow if we judging young rappers based on Soulja Boy this new generation is gonna be hot flaming garbage…there is a million niggas that can spit, this lil one happens to be Run’s kid so he gets his shit put on websites unlike the ones with no connections
Mannn…the original is straight gangsta shit. Diggy is a fuckin rich kid who exemplifies the modern phenomenon of new-age rappers deciding they’re going to rap and using their confidence to attract attention and respect for their hustle. Notice that none of the comments mention how original he is or how this track is going to be on repeat in anyone’s iPod.
This was nothing special at all. If you’re going to rap over a top 20 classic hip-hop beat…you better come with more than just I’m your mother’s, father’s and girlfriends favorite rapper.
I think this style phenomenon should be called Swag, Not Substance.
^^^ i agree somewhat. i have never downloaded a diggy track or listened to one more than one time (probably listened to that “Made You Look” freestyle 2 or 3 times on the web) and i’m sure most people don’t really listen to him, just have respect for what he’s doing…this will probably change in a few years when he develops some unique characteristics and a “better sounding voice” since that seems to be such a big issue amongst the crowd.
i like diggy.but i being from queens can salute him.i mean come on young one you live somewhere in NJ or CT your not from queens its not even a question o.O
…all those body movements in the video are making me not feel this. Like seriously homie you don’t have to exaggerate it that much.
and the rhymes aren’t that good.
And what is he talking about Queens!? Don’t his family stay in a plush ass house in NJ?!
Next.
KnowledgeSon < i agree. though i think if u were probly younger u wud love this. he is only 16 (yh i kno nas etc were too when they started)
but question is …is ur comment becasue hes rich/been on t.v becasue i dont see ppl lodging the style over substance allegations at people like wiz…or the load of other rappers who dont rap about anything in particular but just endlessly string punchlines together. i welcome these comments but hey…where are they on all the other "swag" not "substance" videos.
Some of yall are acting as if Soldier Boy or Gucci Mane was on the beat. Yes Diggy may be young, but he’s cut from a different cloth than majority of these niggaz you hear on the radio. You pseudo-purist kill me sometimes. I appreciate when young kids can identify what good music is, and not be suckered to fit into the mold that the industry wants them to fit into.
Would you rather him flow on Shook Ones Part II instrumental or would you rather him flow on the Crank Dat instrumental?
lol why would someone go over this beat? i dont get it, i guarantee you every single real hip hop fan out there would rather bump the original so whats the point of doing this if you know nobody will bump your shit?
I don’t get why certain rappers that rap about how they are better than rappers are automatically on a higher level than rappers that rap about dumb shit. This kid has barely done anything and is already rapping about how he is better than other rappers. Obviously he lacks creativity. I’m not asking him to rap about hoes and bitches, but we don’t need another “I’m better than all these rappers out here songs.” Plus how is he going to talk about queens when he lives in some big ass house in New Jersey or some shit. Get real.
i dont like when artists go over classics that are obviously untouchable

I think Dig was born in 95, so yeah the same year when Infamous came out.
I don’t like when artists cannot-be-touched-classics but he did it great. I was also impressed by J Cole’s version.

probably my favorite beat of all-time and i don’t really like diggy that much, but he does it justice.
j. cole ripped this beat though and besides mobb deep, nobody else will rip it like cole.
