@dart_adams

Another Correction, Pun was still around, there was still clue tapes… It didn’t go bad in 97, jiggy started, yeah, but there was still raw music out.Big Pun, Camp-lo was still around, Jay ain’t do volume 2 until 98/99. Shit Cam’ron was still lyrical back then. that jiggy shit came from puff and puff only. nobody followed suit. Shit outkast was still doin they thing (from the south). Bet Still played underground music. ok im done.

@ Chuck N.I.C.E:

The Jiggy Era started in 1997. The triangle timbales sound in “street tracks” started in 1997. Mase started in 1997. I retreated to the underground with my fellow backpacking Morlocks and started frequenting 88HipHop.com and Sandbox Automatic in 1997.

LOL.

One.

Oh yeah…I agree with Dart_Adams except for the year 1997. Cats was still spittin after that, DMX, Canibus, etc. I think it was a little later when shit went south…..pun intended..lol.

@ Chuck Holiday
I can’t co-sign what you taliking my man. ‘91-92 I was 21-22 yrs. old and I get the point your trying to convey but it’s a little off. Here’s why….all the rappers you mentioned, “the new school dudes like Redman, Naughty By Nature, Onyx, and K-Solo” all came in on a co-sign from 80’s rappers, Red & Solo(EPMD), Naughty (Latifah), Onyx (Jam Master Jay)and I could name many more, so I don’t know about this not passing the baton thing you talking about.
And you can’t possibly include female rappers in this because even until this day Hip Hop is unfortunately a man’s world and the females have a hard time getting in, and that struggle forces them into a position where they end up cutting each other’s throat just for a piece of the pie. If you look at it the only females who made it since the S-N-P days have come into the game on a male MC’s coatails.
I think what this arguement all boils down to is the difference in Hip-Hop philosophy between the generations. Marketing is not one of the pillars of Hip-Hop!! The majority of the current generation seems to believe that how many records you sell make you an legit artist….NO! Of course there’s a business side to it once you sign a contract and start making records but the diffeerence between the cats from 91-92 and the dudes now is before they got on they were in thier hood rhyming in ciphers, in the lunchroom, talent shows, community centers, ANYWHERE, wanting to get out there and show how “NICE” they were, that was there marketing scheme…skills!! Now it is just that.. “a scheme”…no skills involved. The first thing this kid starts talking about is his chain, his tour bus…who gives a f&%k, your WACK!! This is the difference. If we as Hip Hop fans accept this, then we losing the culture. This is why I defend Lil’ Wayne, and I’m not a huge fan, and I do believe he needs to be bit more selective (won’t call him a whore like 50 did, lol) but he’s trying to show the last generation that he is “NICE”. Attribute that to him coming up in the game early, but he has something that SB and the rest of his age group doesn’t have…a respect for Hip-Hop. Do you…I don’t care, but label it Hip Hop.
I could go on & on, so any body have any comments….reply. I love this Hip-Hop shit. I can talk it all day.

So is it ok for Hamilton to tell this dude to go eat a dick, or will people still be clutching their pearls???? Cause obviously this dude (souljahboy) needs to eat something, how about “…Shit & Die!” a la Kanye.

Come on people, never forget the history…. “Shout out to the slavematers!”- Souljahboy
