It was pretty bad...

Nothing you posted in this thread has convinced me otherwise..

Same reason why not one single artist in your original post is still putting out music

A lot musicians come and go, that's the way the biz is.

No a good point you made there

Yeah it was. Close the thread.

Some people listen to music just to hear the beats/flows, that's who this music caters to.
Some people listen to music just to listen to the lyrics, they tend to hate anyone who makes the first type of music.

Other than Dro who was flowing on any of those songs he posted? And lol at beats too...he posted Laffy Taffy

As usual the thread starter has no point

 

[Taadow]

My problem was that most of 'em were wack.

I liked a few of 'em, but it seemed like at that moment everyone was trying to do a dance cut, and as a result most 'em didn't sound so good.

Exactly. Dro was the only one of those snap dance cats to actually have any talent on the mic. Just wasn't marketed/managed right. And T.I.'s legal troubles didn't help either.

They were contrived and formulaic. That's why they all came out at the same time, and also why it was garbage.

 

[SuburbanPimp]

My problem was that most of them all came out around the same time and was flooding the airwaves. Even though I wasn't participating with any of them, Nothing wrong with a dance song at all. but I think the fact that the rappers doing the songs were horrible outside of Young Dro didn't help.

and todays "hits" aernt contrived or formulamatic

 

[Dettol]

This "snap era" was pretty forgettable. Glad its over. The current "trap era" aint that great either.

 

[jadillac]

Bruh, that sh*t was AWFUL.

It pretty much ruined radio as I think that's about the time I stopped listening to the radio.

All those songs you listed, along with "Party Like a Rockstar", and others.

The only song of that type I like was "White Tee" by Dem Frachise Boyz, but that song actually came out a year or two before that wave took over.

the late 80s/early 90s dance songs were hot though



"Do the Stanky Leg" & all those songs like that were corny as shyt
