This was the beginning of the end. I seen what NAS was saying. Everything was dumbed down after this. I was rockin wit Jadakiss,50,nas,em,busta,DMX, and outkast.
Hip Hop died once capitalism was allowed in the room, and talented black artist started working for corporations; while giving up their publishing and master copyrights.That started in the 1980s not the early 2000s.

It was a culture shock for me because I’m used to listening to New Yorkers and Philly, but moving down there where they played UGK, Jeezy, D4L, T.I. Was the king down there, Trick Daddy.

The ATL rap scene dumbed down hip hop. Not all rappers from the south did this, but a good amount of them did. And D4L wasn’t the only ones in the mid late 2000s.
Being from the South, it used to hurt to hear East coast guys hating on southern rappers. In hindsight, I can truly say that alot of the music coming out then was made with no effort. These guys were even bragging about how fast they could make a song or album.
@@Jralls3 yeah I’m not saying the music is bad by any means, shit in high school we was all leaning and rocking, cranking the Soulja boy, doing the stanky leg, etc. The problem is that the music aged like milk, and the simple made dances and catchy songs rubbed hip hop heads, especially the other ones the wrong way. Looking at the music that’s out now, I would love to go back to 2006.
The south hip hop wise was creating a lot of mediocre and talentless music. They were releasing any type of trash and calling it talent, when it wasn't even good. Most of Southern hip hop music has not aged well at all, especially when you go back and listen to it. The West Coast, Midwest, and East Coast aged well musically. 😂
I will never forget this record. When this came out the Nextel chirp phones were the ish. My boy played that ish over the PA system in the supermarket we worked in for like 10 seconds. They caught him on camera and he got suspended for a few days 😅😅😅
To just summed it up , D4L stunted growth was they were one album one group wonder. They were on the scene for a pack of peanuts but left a time bookmark in that time of hip hop
1) Viacom ownership was split in 2005 , starting with BET having a meeting in 2003-04 about changing the direction of black music and no longer decided to play Neo Soul , and any outdated acts in hip-hop . This was to ensure ROI by making catchier music . There is NO LONGER evidence of this meeting taking place, as it's ERASED from google history, but you can find about the Viacom’s sale in 2005 and there is an unaired episode of Boondocks depicting Debra Lee as Dr. Evil and their plan to eradicate black music 2) Dem Franchise Boyz “White Tee” was the start and Soulja Boy was the catalyst into transition
Exactly 👏🏽 💯. They were definitely happy to let d4l & the rest of the mindless music take over, they're was even a kid group out called " mindless behavior " at that time & that was no accident. Music that promoted intelligence or self love was deemed " boring ". So called fun " Music " like Laffy taffy which paved the way for w.a.p & the off beat kiddie sounding "rap" garbage we hear today. I'm glad folks pushed bk on that b.s I wish people had enough guts to do that with the mess that's out now.
Yup! Early 90s it seems like they had a conversation also and shifted the change same like what you’re saying in 2003. When you look back you can clearly tell something happened. A shift change.
At least old school from the 80s, 90s, and 2000s will. This newer stuff will be forgotten by next month when it releases, sometimes next week after it's first release. 😂
Nah, 'Snap Music' had a right to exist, and did not kill anything. It's not about the music, it's about the people who support it or don't. Perhaps we need to be realistic and examine if "Gangster Rap" killed/damaged rap music. It lives on today as "Drill", which has these dudes out here acting like DEMONS. How Black men are out here at each other throats mystifies me. You didn't see The Beatles beefing with The Rolling Stones, but with us we make music stating how we want to kill. To make matters worse, all our musical violence has done nothing but enrich a race who HATES US.
2005 was the most complicated year for Hip-hop because Atlanta dominated the music scene with Jeezy and Gucci Mane, and then Houston was planting their flag with the release of Paul wall and Mike Jones album. And then Lil Wayne came with tha Carter and then kept hitting us with mixtape after mixtape after mixtape with Gucci mane hitting us with a gang of mixtapes. Meanwhile, Little Brother, Nas and traditionalists MC were trying to stay relevant but saw their audiences shift to more ringtone-type music and dance. The shit was horrible and very complex. and let's not forget This was the era of Hip hop producers making money off blingtones.
@@ZYaKnoe249 True BUT! You gotta know after 03" NYC lost it's steam Atlanta, Memphis, New Orleans, and Houston was runnin shit by that time.

After 03' wasn't nobody messing with the East like that, maybe a handful of Artists like Jay-z, Nas and 50, and Dipset and Some times Fabolous) But 2004 and on.... Nothin BUT A-Town shit, remember when Oukast dropped their last album that solidified the South and soon after 2005 Tip, Gucci and Jeezy came up out da south killing everyone. The Game was the last saving grace of West coast music by that time The West had already lost steam too! the only thing saving the west after 2005 was... Snoop! All the hype on MTV2, AND BET went directly to Atlanta-based artists after 04" They were playing nothing but Jeezy and Tip music videos.
I personally never liked snap southern rap. Im not suprised that this didn't last. When something doesn't have substance it typically doesn't survive. But for better or worse I belived it payed the way for mumble rap artist of today.

No because even though they weren’t good musically, they weren’t relevant long enough to leave a lasting effect(bad or good). Hip hop always had silly trends just wait a year and it’s usually over, no reason to hate just wait. 🤷🏽♂️
I used to be pissed off at this shit. Now when I hear “It’s Goin Down”, I still don’t like it, but it puts things into perspective. Shit can always get worse. I haven’t listened to the radio since 2009 and I don’t hear any new music unless it’s something I deliberately look for. I’ve accepted that idiots have taken over hip-hop, it’s better for my mental health to just block it out and only check for what I like.
@@JM1993951yup the game has been dumbed down and a lot of dudes nowadays have no real love or respect for the art form it's all about clout and tryin to get a check it is what it is
Nas and Jay-Z was right. Hip Hop was dead. It didn't even have to do with ATL entirely since they were a part of the fabric of Hip Hop in the 90s. But they also contributed in killing it. I hated Laffy Taffy. With a passion back then. And still do. A terrible time in rap that led to the genre being dummed down immensely
Also, talk about New York’s get lite era. Snap music had a powerful but short run. But it’s interesting how New York was against the ATL snap era at the time, but in 06 in NY there was the rise of Chicken Noodle Soup, 5,000 and all the get lite songs. I guess it’s fair to say that was more accepted
New York was against it because ATL was becoming the Hip Hop Mecca at that time & they were threatened. Omg & the first song was "Bet ya can't do it like me"!😭
Can you do a video on Jerreau from Fly Union. He’s the nigga that’s known for making anthems for Lebron. He had a song on 2k11 or 12 called Long Run. Idek if he ever got kinda big, but I felt like he should have

Shorty-Lo his solo Album was fire 🔥
It was club music party music!! Didn’t nobody won’t to hear no damn lyrical music in the club! I’m the south we went to the club to have fun and party and dance
Naw, it's not fair to blame "The Crunk Movement" for the slowly demise of real hip hop. Hip Hop is dying due to white old rich farts found a way to profit off our culture by inverting the laws we.set for the culture. Turning great creative, fun, & conscious songs & making the wackiest records successful. Almost like "Get Down or Lay Down" type of vibe. Either you do it like this or you won't last.....we won't endorse you as an artist. You will not get heavy rotation on the radio, no concert dates, ultimately deactivate you .....good luck on your own....that's was the knife stuck hip hop in the heart ..... 🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤🎤
D4L went crazy for about 2 years. But when they had it, the game was fun. The gatekeepers can't have that right. So guess what they did...
Living in ATL. since 2005, I concur.
Will you do a video on Big Mike from both the groups, The Convicts and later the Geto Boys?

just collect the money and fuck as many women as we can before this gets played out
Drill music is the death of hip hop
yes but they made up for it with geeked up
Snap/ cranking was a thing in the uk 🇬🇧 also oooooookkkkkkkkkk
Even though I did like D4L and I love Laffy taffy and my favorite track bet you can't do it like me.......Snap Music 🎶 was popping in the clubs, But coming from a true Hip Hop era.......I can't say snap music is real hip hop it was more like Pop Music.......But I was bumping it and I'll take Snap over that drill crap any day..........R.I.P. Shorty-Lo his solo Album was fire 🔥
IT Was Life support when song came out They Took Too The Grave tho.
It was club music party music!! Didn’t nobody won’t to hear no damn lyrical music in the club! I’m the south we went to the club to have fun and party and dance
Naw, it's not fair to blame "The Crunk Movement" for the slowly demise of real hip hop. Hip Hop is dying due to white old rich farts found a way to profit off our culture by inverting the laws we.set for the culture. Turning great creative, fun, & conscious songs & making the wackiest records successful. Almost like "Get Down or Lay Down" type of vibe. Either you do it like this or you won't last.....we won't endorse you as an artist. You will not get heavy rotation on the radio, no concert dates, ultimately deactivate you .....good luck on your own....that's was the knife stuck hip hop in the heart .....

You can say that about any type of change in hip hop after the year 2005. 😂
@@CB12345okay now u have a point

@@CB12345 I would say 2005 When it fell off a cliff to the point of no return. It has not recovered since.
I don't think Laffy Taffy killed Rap, the genre is more popular now than it ever was.
D4l was snap music
