It's been like that since "come home with me"... here's why:
Cam'ron moved to Columbus, Ohio.
Chubby Baby, too.
A lot of hipsters from Columbus went to his nightclub and shows.
They were fashionable, humorous, and flashy. Very catchy music. A HUGE AMOUNT of Ohio hipsters from a particular set of partying friends moved to Williamsburg, Brooklyn and started throwing "Ohio parties" in lifts and warehouses. They played Guwop, Dipset, and various Hollertronix, mad decent, Kid Sister type shyt.
The aesthetic became part of mainstream hipster culture.
This was from like 02-10.

hipsters didn’t start fukking with the dips until like 2011 ..they were into backpack rap and thought of cam as a non lyrical rapper when Cam and the dips were hot. this hipster “cacs” dikkriding “ignorant rappers” like many have referred to Cam as wasn’t until like 2011 and then they started riding Dipset, drill, Gucci, Boosie etc

Cam was also going at Nas which didn’t settle right with hipsters. Hipsters were still fukking with backpack rap until the late 00s or until after Dipsets popularity and wave died.

and majority of the whites who were listening to ignorant or w/e street rap were more into G-Unit and wearing those ugly ass G Unit tank tops :mjlol:

Not true at all

you clearly missed the movement hype train they had way before this. Matter fact the dipset logo new era hats were a hot commodity in the hypebeast streetwear scene years before this.

I was right there and I could show you the pictures of the parties.
I could even make a Social Media post about it and get a member of The Black Keys to confirm all of this, and his younger brother who worked for dame.
:mjgrin:
They were bumping diplomatic immunuity when it was hot, and vice was just a magazine, along with juxtapoz.
Oh, yeah they were listening to backpack shyt. I was in one of those backpack groups.
:mjgrin:

not where i’m from :yeshrug:


the hype beast sub culture is such a small sect of hip hop fans and most of the white fans here back then were oddly G Unit stan’s yet wrote off other 00s street rap and were still dikk riding 80s and 90s hip hop and back pack rap

Cacs love to ironically love hip hop music that isn't good, Dips are trash and for the most part make a parody of black folk so obviously cacs were going jump on it

I know the type of hipster crowds that transitioned from listening to def jux artists underground type to street rap... that wasn't their base... Neither was it the G-unit fanboys. Or the dilla madlib crowd that loves him but hates bling rap despite the irony (dilla raps about hoes and ice all day).

They had a type of fanbase that was active and fuelled by their colourful lingo and personalities. The same type of kids that became the Asap Yams years later or the Eddie Huang's... These folks were dipped into the streetwear, sneakerhead scenes and all that. Cam and the dips touched on many of those cultural aspects and there was more of a fandom of their imagery as much as music.

They started doing this in the early 2000s when Cam switched his style up to the “computers putin” flow when Purple Haze dropped. It was moreso the Pitfchfork crowd. First noticed it when I worked with this white dude at a summer camp who freelanced for Pitchfork. Dude swore Cam was a lyrical genius lol. What was weird is Cam and Dipset were pretty much the only rappers he listened to. Everything else was indie rock on his playlist.

Also there was a white dude from either Harvard or Yale who made a Facebook group devoted to breaking down Cam’ron lyrics that I’m pretty sure laid the groundwork for Rap Genius

Nah, early 2000s there was a particular set of white hipsters, mostly the pitchfork crowd, who were obsessed with Cam and the Dips. Dig up some of their pitchfork reviews if you don’t believe me
