Method Man Says He Won’t Do Hot 97 Summer Jam Again Due to the Crowd

[23Barrettcity]

Well the young "hot" artists not even selling out. TBH I think roots picnic kind of took summerjams lane a while ago

They neee to fire Rosenberg and these dudes and put on some Kai cenat or some young dudes who may get new ears . I dont listen to the radio so I don’t care

 

[T-K-G]

We gonna pretend like rap crowds in general aren't lame as hell now too? Everyone tryna be too cool and/or tough, the energy is dead and the artists feel that and struggle performing too

Going to festivals with multiple genres of music >>>>>>>

damn near all the other genres have more of a party vibe imo, even if I don't rock with the music it's just more fun and the women get loose 20x faster

 

[Raw Lyrics]

Summer Jam been struggling to sell tickets in general.

It's crazy how Ebro and Rosenberg singlehandedly turned Hot 97 to irrelevancy, yet the station still won't fire them.

That to me is the weirdest thing!!! Any Coli heads could provide insight on how Hot97 allows this?

Based off this, I thought that was the case

But I guess it didn't happen like that

Those headliners

Rap music fell off, most of the new talent is ass... (although i fukks with doja)

Still laughing at gif

Meth with the boat cruise outfit

Redman looking like a clean mechanic

Method Man TAPS Redman on the shoulder to let him know when to turn around

Legends but it does look a little tone deaf

Why is Davido (and Burna Boy) always the go-to Afrobeat artists? Why not bring someone else? People who actually fukk with Afrobeat are probably tired of seeing the same shyt.

Why is A Boogie the host? He's old news. They could have picked any NY rapper or two who was buzzing in the streets. So many Drill rappers across Bronx, Brooklyn and Harlem.

Jadakiss has gotten very cliche. He's always everywhere. Bring other legacy acts. There's a hundred rappers to choose from and who deserve that paycheck.

Sexyy Red is not appealing up north. She can't sell tickets and shouldn't be headlining a festival.

Who the hell are 310Babii and Honey Bxby??

A Boogie earned the right to host. Not my favorite but he is a homegrown star that made music that gives people positive memories.

Jada is a cliche choice but he earned that spot too.

 

[Raw Lyrics]

That's what happens when the let an out of towner act as a gatekeeper to a New York hip hop station.

To this day that doesn't sit right with me. His arrogance also makes it worst...he needs to go back to Oaktown.

She was at the Roots Picnic too and had the crowds full attention. Shes huge right now everywhere, like her music or not

 

[Methodical]

Look at that bullshytnwhack ass lineup they with? totally disrespectful Method and Red

It's not about earning the right to be there. Neither of them are hooks for anyone to come attend. You need to put butts on seats.

A Boogie and Jadakiss can be seen everywhere. They're not reason to attend Summer Jam, which for most people is a good amount of travel.
