If you cant "call" them as a movement or not you kinda lose credibility on the topic bro.
Cam'ron Explains where things went wrong with Jim Jones on Instagram Live + Max B, Chrissy, Jay Z
- Thread starter keone
- Start date
Ask Black folks what they know Cam'ron for and see what they all answer with. We all know he is a rapper but folks gone say he played Rico. Cam is a meme that is viral from that movie.
I'll do you and mainman a favor and not even include anything before 1985...
Native tongue
Hitsquad
Wu
Bad Boy
Roc
NWA
Luke Records
Rap ALot
So So Def
Organized Noise
Death Row
Dre (post NWA Aftermath etc)
Cash Money
No Limit
This is what i call doubling down on stupid.
Yeah i used to fuck with hell Rell and JR writer
damn niggas really like so so def
great list otherwise...except dre on aftermath tho I don't see how that's a movement
How you get that picture of me nigga!! That was taken after i read your post in 2011 about Jay Electronica about to drop his debut album.
Funny.
BTW, how many people, particularly Latino rappers, spawned from Terror Squad? And even though the music was decent, what exactly was the goal of the Dipset movement beside promoting ignorant nigga shit?
And Gay Unit? Really?
ehh I think this is where the definition of movement gets muddled...I totally see where you're coming from tho
JD is Atlanta music bro.. HIGHLY underrated in that regard.
Aftermath brought you these guys......
What you mean you wasn't in those streets? No Limit and Cash Money? Their shit was worldwide.
I ain't gonna lie I must've missed that So So Def run. I got respect for JD career but his label wasn't really that good. He had like 4 good artist in a span of 20 years lol.damn niggas really like so so def
G Unit is under Aftermmath.. I consolidated as a favor to you nigga. Show some appreciation.. And So So Def essentially but an entire region (region which now OWNS hip hop) on the map bro... Please stop..the addition of soso def and the omission of g unit is a problem here... outside of the dipset issue.
somebody explain how soso def was a movement.
niggas in atlanta didn even like soso def. it was like "ah this spoiled ass nigga jermaine is getting a few checks"
GUnit wasnt a movement? Surely you jest.
Yea.. you were shittin pampers.
Damn I forgot about SAS and when Dipset took the U.K.
I never said that...I don't agree that aftermath is a movement tho just bcuz 50 signed to dre under that imprint...I understand your premise...just don't agree w/ it...you're doing some "by proxy" type shit
I disagree. I never said I don't see your point or why you'd say that, I just disagree.... especially since I know people who just told they'd only recently even SEEN Paid In Full
Come on man you know they movement wasn't shit man. Jd had a good run but I don't know about the whole brand.
ya dude is using the word 'movement' very liberally in a few instances
Top 10 in what way?
This whole thread got me trying to figure angles out now, because everyone has an angle it's just who's is closer to the truth
yeah- and maybe my pov on it is stuck in 1983-82
some do organize and get the community behind them - both should happen without commercial assistance
others organically grow out of the community - I'm biased to the underground and the street
maybe - but imo based on your quote below - you are confusing commercial campaigns, push and hype or getting hot with what a movement is...Bad Boy? Death Row? Dre? SoSo? NWA? HitSquad? Roc? these are labelmates groups and clicks - thats like claiming Violator is same as Wu
its still a label nothing more.JD is Atlanta music bro.. HIGHLY underrated in that regard.
Aftermath brought you these guys......
GUnit could have grown into a movement - it existed underground and in the streets prior to Aftermath signing 50
can you say the same for any SoSo def artist? Now if you had used Goodie Mob? - HUGE difference
popularity or commercial success of a label or management by its self doesn't equal a movement... but I'm not saying they aren't a movement - I'm saying I couldn't see their roots - cause I know NOTHING about NOLA
hmm; thats kinda pushing it fam; I dont know about that one; what would you say the impact from dipset was?? and if thats the qualifications, I would think there would be more than 10 hiphop artist and/or groups that had bigger impacts; and does this include all things hip hop, in terms of record labels, clothing lines, etc??? I think you need to be a little more specific...
having the streets love you so much that ur popularity forced the industry to take notice and push u.. they(well duke the god) made a shitload of bread off them og dipset mixtapes, they made a shitload of bread off them stop snitching shirts and other clothing items, they got heavy rotation in a lot of clubs in ny, had a huge street fanbase in ny and other places...they eventually all had hits.. even lil wayne took notice and formed a friendship with juelz which many believe that elevated lil wayne skills..than they had hood movies that moved a lil something/something... it's pretty much an underground situation that elevated into a bigger project.. crazy thing is it could've gotten bigger but ego's, juelz bad habits and laziness, and a few other things got in the way of it
I can feel that; but I think we need to qualify top 10; because do we throw in clothing designers or record labels; or are we talking about groups only?? I mean there are alot of different aspects to it; but I do think they had a substantial mark; im not sure top 10 though...
And yes Gucci has influenced atl hip hop more; but Outcast had way of a bigger impact on ATL then anyone or anything in the south; to me...
i was trying to be nice cause i kno how sensitive nigs get on the situation/subject..i was gonna say wayne was def influenced by juelz
I hope you choke on yours...you mentioned some great ones but your outliers are fucking up the discussion
ya the conversation is about to be all over the place now...dungeon family is a "movement"...other dude said eminem is a one man "movement"
