@Wacky D
Said three 6 wasn't that popular IL
Only on tbe coli
Bruh..three 6 and even some songs from Lil Wyte like Oxycotton was getting MAJOR play up here on the east coast when the tri state was still warming up to southern music
youre exposing yourself.
I'm not saying they weren't popular. I was responding to dude claiming that 3-6 mafia/Memphis should've had a run. I simply said that they weren't THAT popular.
do you know how many rappers were bigger & more popular than prime 3-6 mafia? just in terms of the south alone, they were b-list. let alone the rest of the rap world.
and lol. you must be from hipsterville or something cuz it wasn't no streets up top listening to no f*ckin LIL WYTE. lol. this board is bizarro world.
Top three?
And then someone saying "Thee"most influential
Would love to see where they put groups like NWA
Wutang
Tribe/ghetto boys
And in regards all the professed biting
Can be filed under "you made it a hot line I made it a hot song"
Some credit maybe even the majority has to go to artist and producers taking something underground and bringing it and making it palatable to the masses
basically that.
especially the bolded, even tho it may come off as disrespect. but its not a bad thing. cuz its a lot of other groups with that indirect influence. 3-6 falls under that category with groups like above the law, phillys most wanted, freestyle fellowship, etc.
thing is, this 3-6 mafia love seems to be a trendy message board movement right now.
and usually, most of the people that take part in these types of things, don't know much.no its not.
that migos flow sounds similar to a lot of different people.
the northeast? LOL.
and naw, I'm not down with overhyping east coast albums. I see where youre coming from but that war report is classic.
3-6 never gets the credit they deserve. Them nikkas got Oscars, put some respeck on they name
yea because getting an Oscar for shuckin n jiving..........
........is the epitome of hip-hop achievements.

how did you just jump from run dmc to mobb deep?
you didn't understand my analogy at all. that's one thing. but man, you didn't even attempt to comprehend it.
They had a cult following in the 90s, but they were known back then. Maybe not on the east coast but in the south & midwest area Three 6 were known breh. I knew about them before they blew up because my uncle that lives in KY was always listening to them every time I visited. You have to understand that there is a world outside of NYC dude lol. Tear Da Club Up & Late Night Tip were hits which helped them go gold. It wasn't until 99-2000 they became big nationwide when Sippin On Sum Sizzurp was being shown on BET & MTV regularly. Project Pat was already buzzing off Ghetty Green then dropped Mista Don't Play which made him a a house hold name.
I also saw where you said that Mista Don't Play is a regional classic? How? Its Pat's best work and it went platinum.
So, since The Infamous & Hell On Earth didn't go plat....Its a regional classic right?
the guy youre arguing with, isn't even from the east coast
lol @ project pat being a household name.
so youre saying that "mista don't play" is a classic because its the best work by a rapper who was c-list at best, and because it had chickenhead on it.
new Orleans rap. cash money &
no limit were still dominating.post 2000, outkast was basically a pop group.
and 3-6 mafia was pretty much done by 2001. half the group was gone, including the only 2 members that could actually rap. 3-6 dropped most of their hits after that, but that's basically what they were by that point - a singles group. all the way thru to today, where juicy j can drop bands but nobody bothered with his album.
da headbussaz album with fiend was dope but it was underground.
3-6 never had a run. it doesn't matter how many coli posters get into their music 20 years after the fact. they just simply weren't THAT group.
