Is 0-100 this generation's "Who Shot Ya"??

[CrimsonTider]

"Who Shot Ya" was more organic cause of the Pac Situation cause he was actually SHOT in real life. That's the hardest part of this comparison to me. "Who Shot Ya" has an actual real life story behind it. "0-100" is just a hot song. The funny part of "Who Shot Ya" is techincally it's not even a Pac diss but cause of his reaction to the song and all the other "Who Shot Ya" references from other songs it has become a Tupac diss in History. Also I wouldn't call "0-100" an "Underground" song just yet. I have a feeling it will be on his next album. Techinically speaking, "Who Shot Ya" began as an interlude and became a "B-side" cut. But because of it's Legendary status, it became Album status by being on "Born Again", "Ready To Die 10th Anniversary and Biggie's Greatest Hits".

Was who shot ya a hit record though?

It was a dope song that got artificially elevated in retrospect cause people reference it in the west/east beef

"Artificially Elevated"? I mean it was Hot at the time it was released. It was so hot Pac got word of it in Prision burning up the streets. Yes it's elevated cause of the East/West beef cause it was the song Pac reference on "Hit Em Up" but it's not like the song grew in popularity after the fact. It was hot the minute it was released. I don't believe it charted so it wasn't a hit song but it was the B-side of the Platinum-Selling "Big Poppa Single" so a lot of people heard the song even though it's basically an underground record.

I mean as far as the aura around it.

The controversy is the reason the song stayed being mentioned "10 years" later

I think "warning" is a better song that was released to the public but it didn't have the controversy surrounding it to keep it floating

Well this is exactly another reason "0-100" can't really be compared. It just doesn't have the controversy surrounding it. A lot of rap fans consider "Who Shot Ya" A Classic Diss song. But I agree that the Pac beef has given the song a unique aura.

Let's just ignore there is more music out now and the way you access you music is much different


You sound stupid.

Biggie is talking that fake thug talk that appeals to you 90s hiphop heads

Drake was spitting real life and shyt that can apply to everyone out here getting it in whatever walk of life

Biggie was spitting fairytales

I dont give a fukk what a nikka is talking about on a song. Just make it interesting. Make it compelling. Be fly about it.Drake talking about Drake gets old real quick, reality or not.

yall base statements like this off of a bunch of joe schmoe's uploading home-made music onto the internet that yall know yall dont click on. and lets be reality. theres barely anything going on nowadays.

there was way more music out back then.

music is treated as disposable now because most of it IS disposable & forgettable. plus the culture been dead.

Breh it's not about there being more music and how you consume it. It's about staying power and in order for something to have staying power you gotta cultivate it and not dispose of it in a couple weeks when the next thing comes along. That's how classics are made; through timelessness but if you're forgetting something because of the next thing then by definition it ain't timeless

i see what your saying. I don't think you're comparing the songs..........

but naw cuz

young people.......aren't actually feeling shyt like that these days. Hip hop and rap isn't combined with the youths identity like it was with us. I remember madd songs. I don't remember songs these days from one season to the next.

Pretty much. One of my favorite albums in the last 3 or 4 years is GKMC. I really enjoyed that album but I'd be lying of I told I remembered much from it.

Hip hop just didn't resonate with me like it did when I was a youth.
