Swizz Beatz is responsible for Memphis Bleek flopping

[Ed MOTHERFUCKING G]

This was in HEAVY...HEAVY rotation on BET. The anticipation for bleek was honestly real...this wasn't SUPER TRASH but got damn we knew this dude and this song were weak as hell...we used to make fun of 'MEMPH BLEEK IS!!!! " we knew he was wack as fukk off gp from this single.

Swizz owes Memph a career fr. If this wasn't trash he would've had fans from the jump. He underperformed from them on.

Not even sour milk from the bummiest Bodega in New York City has aged worse than late 90s Swizz production

Trust, I never miss a chance to criticize Swizz's abysmal talents on the boards, but the truth is...


..Bleek just never had "it".

Dude had ALL the chances in the world. And props to him for going for it (after getting reprimanded by Jigga for being lazy). Dude just was bleh.

That single was dope. The shytty one was “Like That” from the 534 album in 2005. That was awful.

This thread made me go back and re-listen to Meph catalog.

This man had no shot. Too many terrible songs. Just go back and listen.

Even lay-ups like "Is That Your Chick" had Bleek rhyming WAY TOO LOUD on the track and adding nothing.

Just Blaze did his best to salvage that 2nd album, but Bleek just AIN'T It.

He a slouch

Jesus, this is hot garbage even by Swizz standards

He's a hack who had connections.

Hip-Hop's version of nepotism.

Now, don't get me wrong: Bleek had some dope records, but even a broken clock...

Not sure to what you're referring to with the MJ meme, but name me someone else with FOUR attempts at an album who never reached their potential? Main stream artists don't even get that many shots. Tell me where I'm being the MJ meme

Unless, of course, if you're just trolling.

Wild funny to see this thread.

I was just in the barbershop a couple weeks ago, and this joint came on shuffle on the speakers in there, and all of us sitting got into how weak this beat was, but how this type of sh*t was all over radio and in videos at the time. When you hear this kinda sh*t everyday all day, it almost becomes normalized. But mad years later, we were all listening and just speaking on how wack this beat is, once you're removed from that cycle of the late 90's. Swizz is my guy, but he was getting over on artists back in the day.

This beat is seriously horrible. LOL!! It's almost like a joke.

No lie one of my good homies I grew up with has Bleek in his personal top 10. Never met a bigger Bleek fan in my life. It’s hilarious and it’s made me like Bleek more over the years just to see how happy my friend gets bumping his music and rapping his verses.

Bleek first 3 albums dope fukk what nikkas talkin bout. His 3rd album had nikkas freestyling over half the beats on that shyt and them beats was all over sports games and basketball mixtapes.
