we was bombarded with em m8

then fab's hoe azz digs up a corny ass song by grant hill's wife and just raps over it almost a decade later

it was a terrible time for music in retrospect because we didnt have cable internets to help us hide from shyt top 40 as easily as we do now

it had its moments too of course

It's worse now, cause the cable music channels we had back then were better, and if you knew where to look, you easily found alternatives.

Would much rather go back to that era, when Black music actually sounded like Black music,when major actually had artist who weren't just platinum selling, and when we had record stores, not fukking target and the likes. Yes things started to get a bit stupid in that era, but it was actually good. shyt LIKE THIS WAS ACTUALLY GETTING PLAYED

Maybe it's the nostalgia but I loved all that shyt. Good times

I was what 15-17 around them times getting my sweet boy swag on for the girls

i agree that many things were more enjoyable then. record stores used to spend many a night in there just digging as a lonesome teen

but be honest, you see Baby Phat as good because 1) it's De La 2) it's not the weirdo shyt we hear on WPGC today. but when that song came out, lotta cats were at that shyt, it doesn't hold a candle to earlier de la

but to show you that i feel your argument in part, i do marvel at how un-grimey the radio got. Blackout! was released in 1999, and one of the hardest songs out has Ja Rule and LL. LL always had a soft side, so he didn't get crucified for churning out J Lo hits, but Ja went from Jay, X, Meth and Red to J Lo and Ashanti

i guess my problem was not so much the music itself, but just that you were forced to listen to it if you wanted to hear hip hop. like i said, we were bombarded

 

[frush11]

Not a real big fan of the Neptunes, but I fukked with these two

shyt changed when Em became a star, I mean Hip-Hop was big, but after he came, Hip-Hop was just everywhere, and you have to remember, during that period we started to have a lot of young Black kids coming out of High School, and Universities, who didn't go through the struggle or grew up in the hood. And just wanted to have a good time, and they were the ones who became program directors, A&R's, Club owners, and what not. And that time money was good, everyone was eating for most part.

 

[frush11]

^^^To add to that, there were a lot of 70's/80's Black babies like myself, who for most part lived in relative comfort, parents had good jobs, live in the burbs(even tho there were some hoodness in the burbs too). We had generation of young Black people, that never really experienced real strife, who just wanted to have fun, drink good, eat good, dress nice, and that grimey music, wasn't the soundtrack to that.

except this tune, ashanti hit a pocket on this one

Ashanti-Happy - YouTube

I never felt this song


I was one of those that thought Ashanti>>Beyonce, in terms of who I would bonk, back in like 2002-2003. My bruhs were on some, "she got sideburns yung "

me:

honestly, this was the point where I started to tune out mainstream black music unless it was from my goto artists.

I dug the production on fabolous' cut, but I couldnt stand him as a rapper. But all these brehs wanted to look like him, and it astounded me.

I started to lose it with JayZ around this time as well, and everything was produced by the Neptunes. It got annoying fast.

But there were A LOT more good songs back then than now.

Something changed between 99 and 20002 in black music because there were some HARD records on the radio back in that period but then in the early 2000s it became all R&B infused to today where its mostly European pop influenced shyt.

 

[mastermind]

That JayZ/Kelly album was awful, and im not defending it... but tell me this song didnt go at a party back in 2001-2003






this joint wasnt on that album, but it was pretaay pretay good
