When Do You Think Being "Thick" Went Mainstream?

[Kyle C. Barker]

Sir Mix A Lot jumped it off. He was a visionary.

That was my first thought too


Looking back though the dancers in that video were slim phattys (which is still my thing btw )


But I guess it had to start somewhere

 

[Shadow King]

J-Lo was the starter
Beyonce was the relief
Kim K was the closer

Around '03-'05

Right when southern rap blew up. That was when the southern rappers got actual strippers in mainstream videos, and the east coast couldn't compete with their racially ambiguous, stick figured women. Then Kim Kardashian blew up. And then the monster known as IG came in and made women with ass and titty implants the norm, damn near wiping out natural beauty in the mainstream.

You youngbloods dating the fukk out of yourselves

Skinny took over in the 90s when all these openly gay fashionistas started pushing models built like teenage boys. Before that even the swimsuit models has titties and ass. I'd say J-Lo made it OK for white dudes to admit they liked big asses again, so mainstream culture followed. Rest of us never left

Porn mainstreaming helped a lot too.

 

[KinksandCoils]

When white men realized that their women were fat too.

 

[King Poetic]

J LO started it with that green dress for white people and others

however nikkas in the hood was all about booty since the beginning of time, but uncle luke brought it world wide on a rap level with the box , bet late night

The only answer here is "thick" became mainstream once everybody started getting fat here in America... basically just an excuse for hoes to eat like shyt because they'll be thick in their opinion

Thick has always been on the fringe of the mainstream since at least the late 1990s. What really ushered it in was the advent of the modern video vixen and the renaissance of ebony porn. There was a brief period when thickness fell out of favor for more "athletic" builds but the IG thot era resuscitated the dead corpse and here we are today with a bunch of empty, mass produced shells.

great explanation
