The Massacre Or TM:101

[jilla82]

101 got hella spins when it came out...but I havent listened to it in a long time.
That early 50 still gets me through my workouts

101 probably had more influence, but Massacre was my shyt when it dropped, a personal classic for sure.

I gotta go with the Massacre, but I could see why you would choose 101.

TM101 Was ok, its jus hyped up by south nggaz

 

[killa the goat]

101 easily.

 

[MiC]

You comparing a classic album to a good album with wack shyt like candy shop on it

 

[Heretic]

I really didn't appreciate massacre when it first dropped but I really like the album now. Tm101 hit like a hurricane here right off the heels of trap or die and streetz iz watching. I played tm101 way more but now I'd probably listen to massacre over that now, unfairly hated on album.

Are people really saying that The Massacre had no impact on the streets? There's several songs on that album that weren't singles that were big. "A Baltimore Love Thing", "Piggybank", "Get in My Car", "Ski Mask Way", "Ryder Music" and a couple of others were huge.

101...no question.

It's impact following Trap or Die made Trap Rap mainstream even though Jeezy wasn't the first "mainstream" trap rapper.

Trap Muzik made trap rap mainstream a year before Trap or Die even existed.

TM101

Massarce is great but tm101 nearly every song on that album is a banger. Its aged wonderfully too, its nearly 10 years old but it sounds 3 years old. I don't even consider tm101 trap, too great to be categorized with chief keef

 

[ThatsRite2]

101 and it's not even close for me

Trap Muzik made trap rap mainstream a year before Trap or Die even existed.

Eh, yes and no.

Trap Muzik introduced the word/concept of the trap but songs like 24's, Be Easy, Rubberband Man, etc. were made for radio essentially. TM101 wasn't at all made for radio and it's sound is the model for present day trap music.

And Then What...
Soul Survivor
My Hood (this song is even interpolates "Rubberband Man" which you claim was essentially made for radio)

^^^ All of those were made for radio. With that said, what does being made for radio have to do with popularizing trap rap?

With Trap Muzik, it was the mainstream's introduction to the word/concept thus popularizing it. It wasn't just the word/concept, it was a sound. According to Toomp, it was a sound (specifically "Be Easy") that inspired Shawty Redd to create "Trap or Die". It was that record that was the blueprint for the sound of TM101.

Massacre was a classic. But 101 was a classic that changed the game
