What was the worst follow up single in hip hop?

[Deltron]

Corny generic west coast Dre imitation. One Blood was such a hard track even haters (like me) couldn't hate on it. Then he missed with this shyt. And that was a wrap from there.

damn i thought wouldn't get far was the second single

didn't even know he dropped a vid for this song

 

[Won Won]

Jigga That N*gga from the Blueprint was somehow a single

Whatever the follow up to “Whoa” was. I swear I never heard it but there had to be one right?

Espacio

Absolutely no one remembers Budden next single after pump it up and never will

 

[Heavy_Handz]

Nah that shyt was hard back in 2006

I gotta go with Lil Wayne Lollipop, Amilli was a strong single but Lollipop was cringey


But the real question should be, which follow up single was better than the debut. I gotta go with J Kwon. Tipsy was cool but Hood Hop was classic

Lollipop was a huge song. You can’t name that as a bad follow up single

Busta Rhymes usually was SPOT ON when choosing his singles for any album he dropped up until Anarchy. I don’t know what the hell he was doing dropping Get Out & Fire as his two singles. I guess Get Out was trying to ride the wave of Jay dropping the Annie sample on Hard Knock Life but such a weak single. Fire was an even weaker single. He could have dropped that as a street single and been good. Anarchy definitely his worst selection of singles because it’s a great album with many dope records. Really missed an opportunity to drop Enjoy Da Ride as a single. Such a feel good record

 

[NormanConnors]

I don't care that this song went #1, I hated this



wack follow up to No Matter What

but he redeemed himself with What Up, What's Haapnin

Fukkin Problems was terrible breh

Glad I'm not the only one

 

[DANJ!]

Man, Be Easy was FIRE. Tf?!

You tripping.

You got it mixed up. it was Ha, Back That Azz Up, then Follow Me Now. I don't remember hearing Follow Me Now till 1999. There was a second version of the album that got released with it on there. It also had both Ha remixes. I had both versions of the CD and I had the tape. And Follow Me Now was DEFINITELY the 3rd video released.

Naw, Follow Me Now video was out in March '99. Back That Azz Up was out in June/July.

I used to record videos from '86 to about '02 and I had all the tapes dated. Follow Me Now was on a tape with stuff like What's It Gonna Be by Busta/Janet, Nas Is Like, etc. Back That Azz Up was on the one from summer '99, along with stuff like Vivrant Thing, What Yall Want, Cash Money Is An Army, Quiet Storm, etc. Also, because I used to watch videos addictively, I distinctly remember that summer being bombarded every half hour with Back That on BET, MTV, and The Box. It's probably the vid that got the most play that summer.

Drake - Find Your Love

nikkas saw it was produced by kanye and thought

heard the first 30 seconds and was like "you sure KANYE made this?"

Kanye was playing full saboteur with that shyt

only winner of that song was Maliah

 

[Alvin]

first thing to come to mind:



many people hated it but I didn't mind Get Up - it followed the usual commercial 50 Cent single formula and didn't sound too bad for a mainstream song
then he dropped the ball and followed it up with this turd


shyt did so bad 50 scrapped the whole album and did it over (still came out terrible)

I liked both honestly

 

[letti cook]

Just thought of this

Lil Wayne tried to follow up Block Is Hot with Respect Us and do what Juve did with Follow Me Now


Loud Pipes or Drop Like Its Hot were clearly better choices

i like this song in the context of the album but as a single, nah

 

[Alvin]

“Curious” by Tony Yayo. Not that So Seductive was setting the world on fire or anything (it was an alright club song and minor hit), but to follow that up with a song strictly for the ladies when women are not attracted to Tony Yayo at all was a mistake

that beat still crazy to me.

 

[Alvin]

Worst follow up single, meaning wackest song, not least successful one.


Speaking of T.I.,


he followed up About the Money with this crap

he killed his verse, just the iggy feature....

 

[Alvin]

I liked this song, but no Kim in the video and he had better songs to pick from.

low key top 5 Jay Dilla beat, if Nas would've gotten that beat, would've been a classic

 

[CrimsonTider]

You could do this for most 1 hit wonders

This was Dej loaf follow up to Try me
