They cleared the Vanessa Carlton sample before they released Who I Smoke. Foolio said he doesn’t care about the Fantasia song not being cleared and she can keep the money. He just wanted people to hear it.Mariah ain't with the foolishness. Good for her
Fantasia and Vanessa Carlton need to sue too
Nothing in rap has ever been original. Rap has always been about remixing shyt and sampling other genres. That’s how it started.lol these 2000s babies don't have a single original bone in their body.
Jacksonville got everyone trying to make drill pop remixes![]()
But how is it hip hop if the hip hop artist is stepping into another lane?Yep it’s hip hop. If Prodigy made a full r&b song I would consider it hip hop since he raps most the time. Simply a hip hop artist stepping into another lane.
So what are the definitional characteristics of hip hop?This white poster trying to define what hip hop means to us and thinks that his definition is the final word. And nobody checks his cac ass. Not only one time that for does this, but twice. Only on the internet will a white boy seem so empowered to try to check black people in a music genre of our own creation.

My logic is not off. By some of y’all logic in this thread this song is not hip hop at all.
Its r&b and shouldn’t be considered hip hop
But to make that statement about the Biggie song would be considered crazy. Well it’s the same shyt with these dudes. They are rappers that flipped a r&b track and sung on it with traditional rap content. That’s what Biggie did and his shyt is hip hop like they shyt is.
So hip hop has zero definitional characteristics? It can be anything? tomorrow a rapper could remake this song and we could all wake up and decide this is hip hop?It’s whatever the fuk he chooses it to be
Dude I don’t answer to or debate with any of you cac members on this board on any issues. I TOLD you what to think- if you don’t, that’s on you.So what are the definitional characteristics of hip hop?
In other words...you know I’m right. Ok.Dude I don’t answer to or debate with any of you cac members on this board on any issues. I TOLD you what to think- if you don’t, that’s on you.
what you’re not going to do is come on the thread and insist on having black posters cater to your mindset for music that you have no direct association or contribution to. Again-fukk off and mind your business
No I just know you’re a passive aggressive little reject white bytch whining behind a keyboard for black acceptance trying to persuade us with your opinion as no one gives your comment any merit; who would get his head knocked off at a 2000s era Mobb Deep concert in New York for thinking that you can run your mouth and not deal with the consequences. But keep crying - you aint about that type of life, getting murked. Scared to death at a venue where you can’t move solo - go back to playing on YouTube, that’s your lane.In other words...you know I’m right. Ok.
But how is it hip hop if the hip hop artist is stepping into another lane?
Nobody is saying that once a rapper makes one pop or R&B or rock song they are no longer hip hop.
