It was,
all that was played on,
tv and radio,
luckily,
due to the emo/homo-ness,
in rap and r&b,
today,
we have escaped,
pop-tart party music,
fortunate and unfortunately,






















I still hate,
party like a rock star,
with a passion.

I was middle school when this $hit was out so was doing all these dances :pachaha: but this was before I started looking into older hip-hop.

Somebody, mentioned Heavy D and Kid & Play, they had skills on the mic, unlike every video posted outside of Dro.

"whatever happened to the shop boyz? party like a rockstar/
i heard they back to poppin cars" - trouble trouble

i mean, i liked lil will's stuff. he was dope. and i thought the franchize boyz put out some okay stuff. other than them, and a few songs by other cats here-n-there, THAT CHIT WAS WICK-WICK-WACK.

and despite all the wackness, i wouldnt have hated it so much if it wasnt shoved in our face and placed in the forefront of hip-hop. especially at a time when there was still plenty of quality music droppin.

p.s., i never looked at young dro as a snap rapper, so no need to mention him.

I never understood why it got so much hate either. I guess along the way muthafukkas started acting like bytches when it came to dance or party songs.

Even in the "hardcore" 90's muthafukkas never really bytched or complained about dance/party rap songs.

thats because in the '90s, alot of the party raps were of actual quality.

and the ones that werent of quality were ridiculed for being wack.

People on here always say the mid 2000s was the worse time in hiphop

I wanna know why?

actually, mid 2000s was better than the late 2000s, early 2010s and is so far better than the mid-2010s.

but yea, alot of those ringtone dance raps were the lowest form of hip-hop ever. but like i said earlier in my post, this bullchit doesnt define the mid-2000s. there was still alot of dope music coming out. so when people say mid-2000s was the worst era, im not even trying to listen to them because that just means that they had their ears glued to the radio, rather than the streets.

yep...

nikkas always screamin that real hip hop shyt...but when u do a search about real hip hop..

kid n play..heavy d..and others was dancin their asses off...

be4 that nikkas was breakin...ice t had the nerve of shyttin on soulja boy..

when his albino squirrel face ass was breakin too...like nikkas forgot...

heavy d and kid n play had skills.

the gs boyz & shop boyz were beyond wack.

None of those artists were actually good...

*BUT*... you really asked a bunch of dudes who don't go to the club or dance what was wrong with dance songs? :mjpls:

I have Hip Hop Elitist friends... they don't dance... they go to parties where they play Tech N9ne & Little Brother songs all night & dudes just sit there with there drink in their hand nodding their heads to the beat & hollering at the fake hip hop chicks whose only conversation is about how much they hate Lil' Wayne & Chris Brown but come off just as dumb as chicks who think Dem Franchise Boyz are good rappers... :heh:

:pachaha:

realest post in here.

"Get Low" was in the good lane, "Laffy Taffy" was not.

no it wasnt. "get low" was just as bad. and it opened up the gates for the f*ckery.

i wouldnt even call it opening up the gates. lil jon, bone crusher, ying yang twins, trillville, most of that bullchit was forcefed in '03-04. i called it before it fully went down too.

atlanta crunk was almost as bad as snap music.

Did you listen to 'em??

"Get Low" was a vibrant, straight up party song. Ain't nothin' wrong with a party, especially the kind of party "Get Low" would start.

"Laffy Taffy" was stiff and stunted. You couldn't do anything to that but that damn snappin'. Same with most of those other songs like it that were mentioned.

It's cheap, easy to produce, and takes very little talent. The labels can sling it around, get those single sales, cake off the tours and dispose of the group when they're done. Easy business model.

These were club songs by the way. Who's trying to listen to lyrical interpretations of Egyptian hieroglyphics and spiritual mathematics at the club? What stripper is gonna be dancing to your average Talib Kweli joint? The club scene is escapism. No one wants their buzz killed because of pseudo intellectual backpack rap.

And it didn't consume the culture at all else they'd still be here. You all said yourself none of these guys have careers. Shouldn't that make you all happy? Meanwhile you got dudes like Common, Talib, Mos Def, Nas still relevant and making music. Just because someone's music is exploited for six months to a year doesn't mean they are the defining sound of hip hop. Was FUBU the defining brand of turn of the century fashion? :usure:
