I was 11 in 93 had just moved from south central Los Angeles after the riots to my dad in baton rouge my sister put me on to 8BALL N MJG I knew the music word for word. We use to beat on the desk to lay it down. I recently reintroduced the L.A. youths to space age pimpin during the pandemic.
@@demetriusmaston7754 fam they took it and ran with it. I hear it up and down Crenshaw blvd. Those was some good times for me only time as a kid I experience peace. Im moving back in a few months finally 30 years later.
Im still slapping Tela's "Piece of Mind" album! Shooooonuff!!! 😎🔈🔉🔊 During the mid and late 90's....Suave House records made my high school years some of the best times!
Me in my brother's fell out because I didn't want to be a rapper I vision rap becoming this way. I want to be Draper or J Prince of Chicago Bosspimp inc
Eightball & MJG will always be known as Legends of southern Hip Hop who put it down for the south Especially coming in the game right behind Rap-A-Lot!!! Great Documentary!🎶🔥😎
@@dredocs your welcome And yes Im a long time 8 Ball And MJG fan I been rockin their music since 1993'' And I enjoyed the Documentary I don't know If you've done anything on Project Pat And 3-6 Mafia If not I think that would be a good Doc as well since your on Memphis. Thanks😎
8ball & MJG “In Our Lifetime”…played it so much had to buy it twice. Press play, spark ya blunt and ride….every song fih…song rotation is perfect. One of the best albums ever made, regardless of genre. Legendary label and staple of country rap tunes. Much respect to all the Suave House greats💪🏾🔥
In our lifetime had a special place that was the only CD we had on a trip to Savannah for orange crush and was the only CD we had for a week it was a great soundtrack for that week though.
Coming out hard - top 10rap albums of all times from front to back In 91 when they first hooked up it was NEARLY impossible to get a song by a southern artist to be played outside the south; by the time they parted ways the south was on top of the rap game - that last statement was powerful for those of us from the first generation of rap going global
Im Born & Breed from Mississippi. Raised off Ball & MJG. I went to France 🇫🇷 for work and all the guys we were working with from there was talking about Eightball & MJG. Legendary shit...
Man them days completely warped my expectations of Southern Music. Like we had ALL THAT going on, and you could still cross the other sides of the city and get Swishahouse in its infancy, Dope House in its beginning, Dj Screw and all them cats in their absolute prime, and even Pasadena had folks like Aggravated dropping work. We won’t even talk about Louisiana, Florida, Tennessee/Memphis. We were absolutely spoiled. It all sounded different, unique and anything you picked up was destined to be fire. God man, what days them were
Thanks for the ride down memory lane. The South definitely had some playas back then. Geto Boys-UGK-Outkast-Dungeon Family-8ballMjg-MasterP and NoLimit. That 90's era of rap cannot ever be duplicated.
My only beef with Suave House is they didn't drop Psychodrama album and me coming from Chicago that's my all time favorite group and he held onto them without dropping any albums that's my only issue with Suave House they fumbled on that one
I agree psycho drama was dope when I 1st heard them on twista album I was like these dudes are beast and they killed every feature no matter who they were with. They probably could have saved suave if they would have got put out they had a good buzz going.
@@dredocs exactly and here in Chicago they was dropping alot of music on features Newsense from the group dropped a solo album but the problem was it was all local this before internet and RUclips so unless you was here in the Chi you couldn't get there stuff and it hurt them nationally they never got a fair shot. The game missed out on many great Chicago artists Triple Darkness, Drama Ward, Qualo, etc.
They were used to write songs for suave house artists and you can tell which songs. I was hanging with Psyde in Sugarland when I was living in Houston. Plus a visit and intro to Tony before Psyde put hands on him.
Eightball & MJG "Outside Looking In" was the first album of theirs I had and been a fan of Suave House ever since. "Wicked Wayz" by Mr. Mike is a classic
Shout out to the Suave House, 8ball & MJG, Tela, Crime Boss, Mr. Mike , NOLA, Psycho Drama, Through (him and Mr. Mike were in the group South Circle). Back in the 90s the South stuck together on this Rap music. This is why I believe the south has run the game for so long. I'm from New Orleans and Comin Out Hard was playing crazy here . Don't get me started on the On The Outside Lookin In album. This was a dope documentary as well. Keep up the great work. 👍
@@dredocs No doubt. You keep doin ya thing . Being born in the early 80s and from the N.O. , 8ball & MJG was major part of my adolescent years. I remember May 1998 going to Sam Goodie and purchasing 8ball's Lost, Soulja Slim's Give It To Em Raw, and DMX's It's Dark AndHell Is Hot, all 3 had the same release date I believe. Again, keep up the excellent work.
@kennyrock7153 alot of people don't know that draper is from Memphis tho alot people think he from h town that's why he's able to get ball & g down to the Houston in the first place
I always wish Crime Boss’ Classic FRY HAD 3 VERSESSSSSS….!!! One Of The Hardest Tracks Ever, The Beat, Mood,Energy in That Short Short Joint….He Simply Said “COME 1 COME ALL….!!!” I had the cassette tape and I dubbed it 3 Times on a blank cassette to make the track longer, Then CB HIT US WITH “BIG CHIEFING” The Timeless Summer Jam, We Grew Up On SUAVE HOUSE,TELA’s “STRANGE”….They Had That Futuristic Production that still can’t be mimicked to this very Day…!!! 8BALL & MJG’s “On The Outside Lookin’ In” will FOREVER BE ONE OF MY FAVORITE ALBUMS IN HIPHOP”CRUMBS TO BRIXX” was the theme song for Southern Beautiful Struggle(Most Amazing Beat Ever)…!!! L.I.D, WHAT DO YOU SEE, In The Line Of Duty, All In My Mind,PIMP HARD,The 1st Episode,C.O.H. aka Come Out Hard, 4 REAL,…THATS SOME OF THE MOST AMAZING PRODUCTION & LYRICS OF HIPHOP EVER…..Sheesh…!!! SUAVE HOUSE RECORDS TONY DRAPER, T-MIX & Mr. DJ, , MO SUAVE A…THANK YOU FOR YOUR TOP TIER AND FUTURISTIC PRODUCTION “UNSOLVED MYSTERIES” ,”Gotta Maintain” TELA’s “TIME”, PIECE OF MIND(Perfect Summer Jam), Ghetto Madness , NO SELLOUT, LICK’em Up Shot & “Everyday Allday”Crime Boss’ “CHEMICAL IMBALANCE” Tracks are NUTZ…Perfect Beats, Vibes and Songs…!!! I always wanted to hear MR MIKE AND 2CHAINS ON A TRACK TOGETHER..”Gotta Maintain”….THANK YOU FOR THIS AMAZING AND MUCH NEEDED SUAVE HOUSE MINI DOC….GO BACK AND LISTEN TO THAT SUAVE HOUSE FAMILY….SUPREME HIPHOP THAT I LOVE
I loved the organic beats on Suave House records, they were beautiful. The first time I heard "Shine and Recline" I just melted. So different and so much more groovy than the New York sampling and looping - those Suave House beats would swing.
🔥🔥🔥🔥 I'm so tired of Ballin by Tela. It is one of my all-time favorite records. I enjoyed the entire album. From my hometown, Chicago psycho Drama is legendary. Would love to see something on Florida pioneers and their impact on the origins of hiphop.
Thank you my brother for posting this video took me back to my freshman year in high school I have all my 8Ball and MJG Cds to this day any thing they are on I have purchased still supporting them to this day
The algorithm truly blessed us this time! Shout out to Bethel Grove! The Medusa line came from 8Ball, not MJG though. “…she’s not with it, put a spell on the fat Mac. I hate snake-head hos, but I can’t help but to go back.”
Bro! As a fan who lived throughout all this. You did a good breakdown of all the history. You you broke everything down Chronologically also. Man I miss these days. I wish Drape would have keep Ball, G, South Circle and Crime Boss together.
Yeah, had they stayed it could have been potential conflict. Because of what I heard three six with go out of that way to be the top dog on the Memphis rap scene. So a lot of blocking other people's light would be the situation.
My area was so anti-Bad-Boy in those mid-90’s that *til this day* I’ain’t e-n-o Ball & G were on Mase’s joint…s/o for mentioning Psychodrama, too. I’m from K-town, out west in the Chi🎯💪🏾💯
I absolutely loved this documentary. Suave house helped musically usher me from a preteen into adulthood. So many great and terrible memories associated with this catalogue.
Man I was 17-18 yrs old in Louisiana we bumped everything from Suave House. By last name is Drakes, and in the streets heavy Ppl used to call me T Drapper back then. Rap Alot and Suave House really put the South on the Map in the Rap Industry back then.#HTwn2AlexandriaLa💪🏽💪🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽
I was a jit when all this came out but I was buying cds like a mf and Suave House is one of my all time favorite Record lables. Still to this day I keep this music in my top ten playlist especially 8Ball&G, SouthCircle, and Mr.Mike... I always keep CrimeBo$$ and Tela somewhere in my collection.
Mr Mike is one of the greatest lyricists ever hella underrated
I agree he dope
Mr Mike was a Beast back in 1995'' 96'' He was like the wilde card of Suavehouse. He got alot of new music out on spotify And on youtube🎶😎
I was 11 in 93 had just moved from south central Los Angeles after the riots to my dad in baton rouge my sister put me on to 8BALL N MJG I knew the music word for word. We use to beat on the desk to lay it down. I recently reintroduced the L.A. youths to space age pimpin during the pandemic.

That Mr. Mike Album was Hard. Total Shock was one of my favorites . Tela's Piece of Mind was smooth too. Suave House forever..
Mike is so underrated lyrically

On Top Of The World was by far the biggest album of 1995!!! It could drop now and go platinum!
I luv ball n G but WRONG!!!! Great album but not better than "Cuban links", "the infamous", or "Dogg food" if we being honest
In Our Lifetime was one of my favorite albums they was dropping jewels 💎
"Relax and Take Notes" goes hard AF.
My dad is Big Duke! S/o Tony Draper my pops always speak highly of him.
