It’s wild to think back around 2012 or so when it seemed like a legit Dipset reunion was going to come back and cement themselves and go on a little run. It actually would have been the perfect time for them, ASAP Rocky brought a lot of shine and new, younger, weirdo swag rap fans who were already eating up old Dips music. Then Cam released Ghetto Heaven and man I thought they were gonna go on a run and get back together make some good music for a few years or just be back in the public eye. Because there were a lot of people who really wanted that, it was theirs for the taking, they had that song with A Trak too I think and then all that buzz just went no where! Crazy to think damn near 10 years later..

Yup, when I heard this song, I thought they were gonna be back with a vengeance. But I was dead wrong

Dipset was a moment in time, it just didn’t age well. But when they were hot, it was very few crews touching them. I’m saying that and I was never a fan of them but I saw the movement. The Lox has longevity and hella hits and features. Most of their staying power came from straight BARS. No gimmicks just bars. Dipset was more popular for their swag than bars. Bars always win in the long run

So basically besides cam, they aint shyt without rocafella kanye the heatmakers and max b

Problem is hits don’t matter when it comes to black audiences. They want lyrics. Who cares what the radio pushes. Lox had a lot of songs blacks folks play.


:mjtf:

Ain’t no black parties or clubs bumpin immortal technique or chino XL

:deadmanny:

You talking smooth out yo azz. Black folks love to hear hit songs just like everybody else.

For the record. Dipset got a better catalog.

The Lox are just better performers. If they didn’t have to perform, they would’ve washed the lox :manny:

Nah, the Dips got washed while the L.O.X. left mad work at the table. :mjlol:
