RAPPERS/PRODUCERS BLACKLISTED IN THE INDUSTRY...

[wizworld]

Not a rapper but Keri Hilson
I'm not qualified to speak on 50 but

50 isn't blackballed. If anything NYC radio kept giving him shots when the fans didn't want to hear him. Remember the "Curtis" era when everyone thought he had 300 mill? His music was starting to fall off but the DJs here kept playing him. By the time BISD came out, he was undeniably washed and the DJs didn't need to pretend anymore.

Curtis got money out the ass... That nikka don't give a fukk about being blackballed. It's just that the people don't fukk with him... He's Jim Jones status.

Why? The wackest shyt about the get lite movement getting shut down was how old heads refused to let new sounds come in. I mean I'm an "old head" myself. I started listening to hip-hop in the late '80s and there never was just one sound coming out of NYC. But a lot of people who didn't get on board until '92 or later are on some Peter Rosenberg "real hip-hop is supposed to sound THIS way" nonsense.
Without dancing & partying, there would be no rap music.

Breh, I feel all that.

Began listening to hip hop in the mid 80's and I miss all the fun party music that we had back then.

That shyt was just garbage.

I get that you don't like it, but it shouldn't matter what older heads think about that type of music. You're not a teenager anymore, nor are you partying with teenagers... that music was for THEM. If these kids came out sounding like Kid & Play or Salt & Pepa, would you approve of it then? Think about it.

Yeah breh I hear you.

You're giving all the same excuses that I heard when I talked about him back then.

There's a reason none of that shyt caught on outside of NY.

That was just another case of NY trying to find some identity in the new millennium by latching onto anything with a buzz.

I have discussions about music with people and I always bring him as being one of the most talented youngins back then. Dudes thought I was crazy. I had one of his mixtapes from like 2011. Not sure of the name of it but the kid was snappin' on that joint. I used to listen to it in the gym all the time. I even got to meet dude back in 2009. He did a lil club appearance in North Carolina. Dude was cool as fukk. I told him I was serious fan and he looked at me like . I had to let him know that it wasn't becuz of All The Way Turnt Up. I told him that I listened to some of shyt and he be out there spittin' some real shyt. Not just the club shyt all the time. nikka gave me a pound and told me "You don't know how much that means to a nikka like me".

My man got done wrong as fukk. I remember those tweets.

"Trying to find some identity"

You're looking at it all wrong. The music reflected what the kids in the streets uptown were actually DOING. You are trying to make it into something else, but it's not that complicated. If you see now, there's no radio filter that can hold these movements back. If you think these kids had less merit than the younger artists that are popping in NYC nowadays, you're bugging.
There is no need to worry about any of that stuff popping outside of NY. But there is a reason to let our radio reflect what the young people of our city are into.

This is another "get lite" inspired record that would have taken off if the radio didn't front.........

Ryan Leslie

Diddy took his bytch so he he sent goons at Diddy and roughed him up

 

[mortuus est]

I want to know what happened with Lex Luger

was touring heavy doing the EDM shyt last year and then had baby momma drama

this was doing alot in the clubs when it came out

yeah, he actually had talent. i peeped one of his mixtapes, too. some long ass one but it had some hard ass songs on there. shame he hasn't reached that level of success.

 

[Knicksman20]

To me by far is Easy Mo Bee. He produced half of Ready 2 Die & had hits all through the 90's with different artists. He gets to produce 2 songs on Life After Death because he had issues with Puff taking credit on songs that he did & he's only done some projects here & there since the 2000's. The man can produce his ass off still

 

[OnlyInCalifornia]

J.R Rotem

Yeah he dropped off the map REALLY fast. He was that it producer for a short stretch then nothing again. No mention of drugs like Scott Storch or anything like that but wasn't black balled. He just doesn't work with Hip Hop artists anymore.

 

[fukkyalifestyle]

pretty much anyone that worked with puff. Some people black ball themselves by trying to out the industry like tiffany evans Singer Tiffany Evans, Who Accused Singers of Worshipping Satan in 2009 Says She Sees Things Differently Now; Talks Being a Light and Putting Family Before Fame (Exclusive) or by being dumb like azaleia banks.

that get lite beat is crazy. I love non-pretentious lyricism. The skill woulda caught up eventually, but you can't get mad at youngstas for being youngstas. Imagine if those beats woulda been the norm, shyt woulda been lit. I liked soulja boy and cali swag district for the same reasons
