Hip Hop Hooray vs In Da Club - which song is more iconic?

[Tasha And]

In The Club is just more known and populated in non hip hop crowds than HHH is

It's the exact opposite. I'm not sure how many people could name the artist or even what the song is called, but I guranteed more people know "hey, ho, hey, ho" with the wave. I'm talking about 70 year old grandmas.

If we're doing the age thing then I'm positive more young people know In Da Club.


I've been to A LOT of sports games, In Da Club has easily been more played than I've heard Hip Hop Hooray. Easily. Not that my experience is the be all end all or anything but still

Down with OPP >>> all that

In Da Club is because it has a much more universal meaning. It's basically a Pop song.

I always felt the Dre beat is what people are drawn to, not 50's slurred vocals.

Nah every knows those "it's ya birthday" lyrics. They may not know the other lyrics, but that's all that matters.

Vocals are'nt wack or bad bad, but that beat is what stands out..way too strong.

NBA Live 2000 soundtrack with Hip Hop Hooray

But This is How We Do It > Hip Hop Hooray > In Da Club

 

[Uchiha God]

In Da Club gets played every day somewhere in the world because it's a/the defacto "it's your birthday" song for posts

People with an inclination for/that grew up around hip-hop will likely look at Hip-Hop Hooray more fondly though

 

[Boywouldyou!]

Is smoking both, grandmas and aunties talking about”yall gon make me lose my mind”

Song came out over 30 years ago. NBA cosigned and promoted a remix of the record at the time, and it has been getting burn in every arena since then.

Breh, you can’t make sweeping statements like this especially when you’ve been to just two games in 8+ years.

I haven’t heard Hip Hop Horay at a Celtics game in years and I go to at least one game a year.

 

[Hey_zeus]

Neither. It's generational

I don’t remember this at all.
Pretty cool.
