All this "unlocking flows" is largely lord infamous fathering styles from beyond

They def. fathered a lot of trap/southern music but I think the pervasiveness of that music today is the result of timing and the Internet which led to the loss of regionalism. If you think of what was hot when the Internet came into almost every American home it remains influential to this day. Back in the day every city had its own style. If you were doing the in thing you were doing what your city was doing and shunning what other cities were doing. When the net came out regionalism died. So I don't even consider the chicago dudes trying to be like down south and the shmurdas trying to be like chicago dudes they're just post-Internet babies. I'm just wondering if we're stuck in this moment forever or if it's ever going back i.e. Joey Badass sound.

Joey B is anamoly...most of the dudes his age didnt grow uplistening to 92-95 NY rap..their probably more influenced by Jeezy than Jay-Z so I doubt a boom bap comeback will happen anytime soon.

The guys that are on top now (Drake..Kendrick..Cole etc) was the last generation that grew up on 90s classics.

lol i don't even know if dude was hating. they've always had a "comical" element to their music, in varying degrees. but i think that also explains how they somehow became so influential: they had a sense of charisma and personality a lot of other music lacks.

damn man this thread making me miss the original 6 like a motherfukker :sadcam:

I think those dudes mostly fall from the Nas/Hov family tree which is producing the cream of the crop right now but def. not the volume.

Twista & Skinny Pimp are the closest that i know of...but Twista was on some gimicky riggity riggity rap shyt when he 1st started doing it...then he dropped the gimick and stopped twistin on his 2nd album and picked up back up on his 3rd...while Lord & Skinny were consistently using that style of flow from '92 on up.

I am curious to know myself if there are rappers that were doubling & tripling up like Lord & Skinny that predate them...i always hear some dudes named freestyle fellows or some shyt that were supposedly tungtwistin early on...i hear Jaz-o's name alot too...but the way Lord & Skinny were doing it is the more "modern" style of tongue twistin'.



shout out for talking about kingpin skinny pimp
and yeah twista was probabbly one of the first, obviously Jaz-O but he had a way different style

Lord Infamous and the memphis cats were doing it on a rhythm that others weren't really doing it - on these really hood beats. It was just a different melodic way of going about it.

oh and I would give some points 2 the Dayton Family (who i wasn't into ) they also came with a fast style a little bit before 3'6 came out.

then there was also the cat from Fu Shnickas

Example? The only Dayton Family i ever heard was their features on 3-6's shyt...and they wasn't double timing.
