New Orleans Rap/Hip Hop/Bounce/90s Appreciation Thread

Then it was B.G. It's All On U, Vol. 1

B.G. was my favorite Hot Boy back then even though I fucked wit all 4 of em. Only 16 years old going on 28 lol:

"Me and Baby virgin tight/he beefin we creeping

Swerving yo Bend every night no rest and no sleeping

We hustle serious with this rap like we playing in the playoffs

Bitch nigga'z lagging? Catch the side line and lay-off!" - Silent B.G.


Fuck These Hoez - My fuck a bitch anthem. You really wanna be on some fuck a bitch shit? lol blast this:


Gangsta Shit - Nigga let off again on this man smh

 

[thagreat45]

Then it was B.G. Chopper City. Nigga was 15 gettin' off like he 25. Nigga was ahead of his time:

Niggaz Don't Understand - That bassline nasty. Beat was ahead of it's time


Bat a Bitch - Another dope fuck a bitch anthem


Represent - Another dope beat. I be bumpin' the hell out of this:

 

[thagreat45]

Then of course I copped Chopper City in the Ghetto, the first Cash Money album I ever heard. My cousins loved B.G., then one of em brought this tape to my house we was bangin' out to Goldeneye 007 on N64 lol. Stack was our favorite place with either Power Weapons or Automatics, one shot kills - License to Kill. Man we got it in listening to this right here:

Niggaz In Trouble


Thug'n - Probably my favorite song at first man Fresh just laced these niggaz wit incredible beats


Real Niggaz - A very underrated B.G. song and beat to me. Man this probably the most played song on my iPod all time right now lol. Something about this beat man..


Would post more from this album, but the whole album slap. One of my favorite albums PERIOD.

 

[thagreat45]

So then, by May 16th, 2000 when Big Tymer$ I Got That Work dropped, I officially copped that, 400 Degreez and Tha Block Is Hot that same day. I remember that episode of Rap City tha basement when they first premiered Get Your Roll On:


Big Tymers - This was my shyt

 

[thagreat45]

Hot Boy$ Guerrilla Warfare, shiid I must've copped like 3 of them shits lol. To this day I know that whole album word for word verse for verse. I know 400 Degreez & Tha Block Is Hot albums like that too. But anyway, incredible album. Some of my top favorite tracks:

Help (B.G. solo) - Stay bumpin' this in the whip. One of the greatest beats ever by one of rawest niggaz rap


Bout Whatever (Turk solo) - Turk ripped this shit to shreds at 17


Too Hot - Song is timeless man. My favorite song wit all 4 of them on it


Boys At War - This beat nasty man, Weezy set it off on that second verse


Love this fuckin' album man

 

[thagreat45]

I heard this album right after Chopper City in the Ghetto. It was then that I realized the whole sound was just new and different. I just didn't hear no shit like this outta the East Coast which was where most of our music came from. Fresh was a just a mad scientist back then.

Rich Niggaz - Probably my favorite Mannie Fresh beat ever. I'll put this shit against any heavyweight producer past or present, don't care. Niggaz not seeing Mannie man I'm sorry


Ha Remix feat. the Hot Boy$ - this remix shits all over the one feat Jay-Z. Nigga almost ruined the song lol.


400 Degreez


U.P.T.


Niggaz had me wantin' visit all the sets of New Orleans they repped. Had people thinkin' I was from there lol

@thagreat45 appreciate those drops man. I think its dope as hell that you're from N.Y. and have an appreciation for old Cash Money albums. You pretty much have a lock on BG, Wayne, Juve, Hot Boys and Big Tymers. That's what we grew up on.

Since you're a fan of Mannie, there is one album that I'd recommend. Check out UNLV album Uptown 4 Life. This was a group that put Cash Money on the map regionally.

BG was the bridge from coming up under that group to when UNLV left. That's when Juve and Turk came on.

Give it a listen though. Mannie was masterful on that album. That album also introduced us to Ziggly Wiggly with his skits.

[tharealest561]

Lil Real One feat. Soulja Slim


He was supposed to be the first that popped on Slim's label; dude had crazy talent for a 17 year old. Now he in jail doing life.

 

[jee504]

You mentioning him makes me think of all the rappers dead or in jail from the city.

Dead - Yella Boy, Pimp Daddy, Tim Smooth, Big Ed, Soulja Slim, Tre 8, Sporty T, MC Thick, Kilo G, G-Slimm, Everlasting Hitman, Twelve O'Klok, Warren Mayes, Magnolia Shorty, VL Mike, BTY YoungN

Jail - Mac, BG, C-Murder, Mystikal, Real One. I know I'm probably missing more.

 

[grumpy_new_yorker]

both these tracks have me driving wreckless

No doubt bro. Hey thanks man, yeah my older cousin used to ride in a hooptie on chrome bumping nothin but the south lol. He had mad no limit n cash money releases. Fresh really put me on cuz u just didnt hear that type of sound way up here. Thought it was different yet dope as fuck.

I'm a catch up on this album, and so many of the other ones y'all posted that help Cash Money along the way and showcased the classic sound of Mannie Fresh.

I'm not the only one that feels like this but once Mannie left that was the end of their sound. Mannie was Cash Money. Just being young listening to his sound gradually get better with each album as I got older.

I got more albums to put you on if you're interested.

Even after he left Cash Money I always wondered why he wasn't sought after a lot. Yeah you mentioned TI and Jeezy and he did a little with Ross, Slim Thug, Pimp C, and Bun B. Mystikal had them Mannie tracks just there for him when he got out and didn't capitalize off it. I feel like he deserved better.

 

[Knock_Twice]

Slim, was rapping that heroin and telling you bout it

 

[Knock_Twice]

Mannie said he did this track, I never knew this shit

 

[Knock_Twice]

Man it's a lot of tracks that Mannie did that I didn't know, that one being one and others.

 

[Knock_Twice]

Man Look

Play this shit at a BBQ, heard this shit in the daiquiri shop and them hoes went crazy, lawwwsss

 

[Knock_Twice]

Daiquiri shop shit.

Hoes love this shit.
