This Woodstock 99 doc on HBO is wild

[Lootpack]

I don’t like the shade that one guy threw towards Jamiroquai.

My soul mane

Complete opposite of what transpired at Woodstock 99

 

[HabitualChiller]

Didn't Woodstock in 69 go crazy as well?

As I type this, I'm watching the doc on HBOMax (,) and they definitely did. They go more in depth on what happened in The Sixties, which is also on HBOMax (, broke ass nikkas)

 

[Edub]

Nah that's not true

Expound or move along

I’m glad the Doc at least shed light on how groundbreaking and amazing that performance was. But they also talked about how awkward it must’ve been for the handful of black folks there to hear tens of thousands of white people scream “my nygga!” repeatedly

How I felt when i went to a logic show….I walked out on his set, I really only went to see cordae and jid anyway

Can any of the gen x or older millennial dudes on here speak on whether there's any truth to the whole "people and musicians in the early 90's were super progressive and accepting because of Cobain and grunge" thing they were trying to push? I was born in 93 so I don't really know, but it's hard to believe that was the case. If you told me that white male entitlement and rage manifested differently in a very small and specific slice of mainstream music I could maybe believe that, but I can't see it being a real and notable cultural difference

Nu Metal was basically what Trap music is to rap now.

You have the few talented acts [Deftones, System of a Down, Korn] that came out of it but then you get a bunch of garbage no talent acts that follow a formula until it becomes a parody of itself.

Ouch

It's exactly why I will never go to a rap concert.

I remember when MTV and Pay Per View (my home had a hot box) played that shyt, I was like 12 or 13 at the time. Fred Durst gotta be a top 5 most untalented person to ever become a popular music star, maybe even number 1 (not a dumb business man though, I heard a story that he was on a flight with an MTV exec and basically talked the guy into giving Limp Bizkit a push). I mean dude was everywhere in 99-00. but then a few years later everybody was finally like "nah, what were we thinking on him?"

That promoter was an a$$hole too, wanted to blame everyone except for himself.

BTW wasn't Moby hitting on Natalie Portman when she was underage? Doesn't exactly seem like the beacon of morality he tries to portray himself as...

This Harlem documentary on Hulu is night and day from Woodstock



those destructive ass white people. It made me feel sad when I saw them tearing down the wall that the community had helped paint for the festival at the beginning of the movie.

 

[Capital Steez]

Definitely giving this a watch later. I was only 8 at the time. What’s crazy is how a lot of this energy did get carried by Gen X in later years.
