Do people your age understand that 36 was a B to C level Southern rap group up to 2005?
Yea but I don’t think it’s fair to compare their popularity (at that time). Bone got signed to Eazy-E that’s a big ass cosign behind them. Three 6 didn’t even sign an actual deal outside of distribution until like 97. Plus outside of Outkast who else in the south would be able to say they were above B or C level artists popularity wise at that time. Until No Limit/Cash Money I can only think of Geto Boys off bat. UGK are legends but they never sold that much either. Idk what to say seems like the south only really got love in the south until No Limit came thru tbh

I think this is exactly it. For people outside of the South, who actually lived through the entirety of their run, they are gonna have a much lower opinion of 36 compared to someone your age who discovered them through YouTube.
and possible but the same goes for Bone Thugs. Their relevance decreased as time went on while Three 6 increases as time goes on. I mean the man in my avy done remixed like 5 Three 6 songs this year alone :myman:. Like I said in an earlier post, u can find songs from every year from like 2011/2012 up to today sampling three 6/using they style/or even reusing their lyrics

That was easy but I shouldnt have even posted it. You remind me of a Skip bayless. You say something and no matter what anyone says you gonna put it down. Let me guess "nObOdY kNoWs ThOsE sOnGs" lol

Couldn't tell you what the bolded songs sound like without going back on YouTube and listening to them again. I'm sure I've heard them at some point, but :manny:

I’ve never even heard of some of these songs. If this is the 20 they go with they will get destroyed.



Put your 20 Bone songs beside theirs...and then try and place yourself in the place of the majority of America. Not hip hop purists we may have grown up around, who Bone has strangely imo always been dear despite not being lyrical.

So they're a B to C level group up until like 2005...and then they took off? If so that says a whole lot cause it's 2021, and the younger generation are rocking with them now.

Outside of Kast, there was:

Eightball & MJG (group and solo albums)
Goodie Mob

Yea I thought about both them and UGK but all there record sales are basically in the same area as Three 6 so if he considers them B/C level group then they are too. And actually out of all 3 I think Three 6 is the only ones wit a platinum album.

They would've been B level compared to Outkast, TRU, or Hot Boys during that era.

Until they rebranded as Hypnotize Minds Records, they were basically the Dayton Family of the south.

That 3 year run of Enquiring Minds, CrazyNDaLazDayz, Ghetty Green, Hypnotize Camp Posse, When The Smoke Clears, Mista Don't Play, Both Worlds *69, and Choices broke them out of Memphis and the underground.
