Started by Piratedean

What’s your point of view about Nigerian rappers mostly Idris and Ruggedman? Do u really think Idris deserves wat Ruggedman did to him?

Skillful

Yep and Eedris played in London on Naija indepedence bash says a lot about him innit.

Styles

From a musical perspective, EEDRIS preempts RUGGEDMAN anytime any day...

OBOY WETIN DEY DO U? IDRIS NA # 1; RUGGEDMAN TOO FAKE.

Do u really know wat lyrics are at all or u just listening to wateva they sing...Ruggedman is a lyrical rapper and he turned Idris into a high life musician,...and did I hear anyone say Idris performed at the Nigerian independence. where are u when Ruggedman came to hackney this year?...feel wat Rugged say he is da bomb and there is notin idris can do about it..idris aint no lyrical rapper..and the best rap album Nigeria as ever got is thy album come by ruggedman and pirated copy from 2 Shotz. feel me ? Even ppl here in UK feel em.

My brother Ruggedman did not perform at hackney, he was refused a visa along with Sunny (oruka) fame. This is Eedris’s second performance in LONDON, came last year with Maintain.

I don’t think you can compare both artists. They are both great at what they do, Eedris makes great vibe tracks with lyrics that make no sense, where as Rugged man is a lyrical beast but not necessarily a studio artist.


Styles

Haba oga neon, you must have been skimming through most Eedris joints. Granted, he has some party, bragging and fooling around joints, however he is equally political and social with his other joints...

Neon79

Come on I have heard most of Eedris joints and I am yet to hear the guy put lines together. Even songs like "Kowale" and "Jaga jaga" had potential but the lyrics are disappointing.

Piratedean

Well u have a point...but u saying Ruggedman not a studio artist is a total foul. Ruggedman is a total studio and lyrical artist. Let me give u an example of studio song; baraje and french connection those are studio tracks...that’s the difference between 50cent and the Game...50cent is a lyrical and vocal rapper but the game is a lyrical man which I respect both of them. Idris is good which I am not disputing but none of his raps can compare with Ruggedman...rugged is a good mc.

..here's my take: Ruggedman is a far better lyricist than Eedris...though Ruggedman could use some banging tracks....banging tracks are easier to come by than great lyrics because U can easily buy tracks…unless Eedris can get some ghost writers to bring him better stuff his lyrics have the tendency to remain unimpressive...my vote as per who's more gifted? Ruggedman...sorry. Even the so called 'dis song' he made for 50 Cents sounded more like whining than a diss track...

Skillful

Yep but better lyrics don’t guarantee u a better pay day. Eedris’s music will appeal to most Nigerians than Ruggedman whose music might only appeal to a section of the public. Do u get me bro. By the way Edris can rap in Hausa and he’s not bad at that either. for entertainment I go for Eedris, for flow Ruggedman.

PaJ
..if I were a marketer with global appeal I'll pick Ruggedman...it's easier to find tracks for a good lyricist than to find words for .....well...U got me gist..

Eedris got his fame cos of Mr Lecutrer...its not about his lyrics though but the way he entertains.. he is not a musician to say the least but he loves to entertain and that is what naijaz love ... but Ruggedman has the lyrics, the flow and all that.... he is no "jagajaga" ...he just need to be a popular like eedris but I hope he will not fold up sha.. I love his songs anywayz..

No Nigerian emcee can stand when u talk about lyrical content next to Mode9.
