Been waiting 20 years for her name and found out when she passes away 😔

It was so many bad videos girls back then. NATURALLY bad.
 
I think we can all agree that the snap era was a black eye for the south in general. My question is are we gonna hold NY drill aka hookah mursick in the same regard? :emoji_thinking:
The Snap Era was an amazing time for the south. The only black eye I can think of is when them West Coast cats was jerking in skinny jeans. Glad that movement crashed and burned with a quickness.
 
You dudes get defensive about rap, but a lot of it is problematic and it's beyond just a representation of the communities.

Top Gun was a recruiting tool for the Navy.

Rap has been a recruiting tool for gangs and negative ****, because too much of it glamorizes and normalizes the ills in our community.

Juelz mentioned how dudes have opps and they don't even know why they're opps. They're somebody else's opps.
I was speaking more so from the perspective that cats are getting killed just because they are rappers. Shoot em up and stab em up tunes are the equivalent to war cries. Historically they were specifically only used before a battle or during war time. to mentally and spiritually prepare warriors, soldiers and troops. They were pumped with that energy which they would later dispel while fighting. In present case, some cats listen to that type of music before going to do some kind of sport and it gets them pump and ready to exert that energy, but on your day to day just moving about doing normal activities, it's not good for your mental to ingest that constantly.
 
Polo G has to be one of the most disappointing rappers in a minute (and people are slowly starting to notice).

Started off with hella potential and a dope debut album. Been phony, and non creative ever since.
 
Buggin calling Snap Era a black eye to the South, most of us from the South truly appreciated it. That was a fun period for us.

Shawty Lo came out of that era.

The snap era gets the worst rep. I swear. The mid 00s just saw hip hop return to fun and dance ALL OVER in every region. Club music in Bmore/Jersey & Mid Atlantic. Gogo DC. Get Light in NYC. Hyphy in da bay. Jerkin in Cali. Whatever dance Derrick Rose and them were doing in Chicago. Florida with their own ****. Texas with the Jiggin/Dougie. Atl with Snap

All of hip hop being creative and regionally diverse to have fun. Especially for kids and ****.
 
Snap music was always wack and goofy to me. Yeah people partied to it. People party to anything that's catchy.
Alotta party/catchy music can be “goofy” in any time tho, but they serve a purpose….You go out now and hear whole songs created from or about memes :lol: :smh: …I just enjoy it when I’m out in the mix n listen to all types of other **** when I’m not turning up
