If Fabo came out like 5 years later he would've been huge. Dude was singing about being a drug user in '05 when that type of thing was a no no in hip hop. Fast forward a couple years after Wayne started doing it then it became a trend.

I don’t even think it was a timing thing. I just don’t think he consistently followed up with the success of D4L like Shawty Lo. Especially with “Scotty”, he should have been out of here (no pun intended). I think he said in an interview he was in and out of jail. To make such fun music dude always looked unhinged like he’d snap at a moments notice (no pun intended again).

It's a goofy song yes...its just a dumb party song that hoes liked but it's honestly closer to the spirit of OG hiphop than most backpack "real hiphop"

Hiphop started as slightly goofy party music......not much difference between shake that laffy taffy and a hip hop hippa to the

The idea of barrrzzzz didn't really come about until the mid 80s

Ppl need to loosen up....theres room for all types of sounds in rap....

ATL paid.. Cali blazed
Knew what song it was going to be the moment I read the title. I worked for a marketing company at this time and we promoted this song and album for Asylum. I always took the song for what it was. My only thing was having to hear it CONSTANTLY. It stayed on the radio. I don’t remember djs (radio) per se feeling a way about but in general Hip Hop heads were livid. Asylum went crazy with the promotions for them. Tons of cds passed out, posters, flyers and even a promotional dvd with Fabo geeked out his mind. I still had a copy of it up until a few years ago but don’t know what happened to it now. No matter what you personally feel about the song, it defined an era.
Is that tha DVD he was freestylin in a hotel room wit a dyke girl?

Blassic song
U in the next thread crying about Swizz’s production and u in here bigging up THIS shyt? This is the type of shyt that got FL Studio disrespected and not taken serious as an official DAW. When I knew nikkas personally who was making crazy shyt with FL in that same time frame.

Why does it have to be one extreme to the next wit u nikkas. THAT particular song is hot garbage no matter if it’s a simple party song or not. There are simple party songs FAR better than that shyt. Even from D4L themselves. Like I said. “I Betcha Can’t Do It Like Me” >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

nikka I don’t give a fukk what u think about them beats. They are ALLLLLL better than Laffy Taffy. If I popped that beat on without the song nikkas would laugh me out the building if I’m a producer in ANY time frame. Soulja Boy Crank Dat >>>>>>>>>> Laffy Taffy.
