Suge Knight Details Assistance On The Notorious B.I.G.'s "Ready To Die"

[StreetRap]

I don't see it on the funkdafied song

I don't agree with the chronic being bit at this point

I know g-funk influenced

but I think it's a difference between southern g-funk and west coast g-funk

 

[StreetRap]

Funk music is the real origin

I see what he's saying about the artists mentioned. Early 90s West coast influence. At the same time, that was over 20 years ago. There are people born after Kriss kross hit that are in their 20s now and really dont know much about all that. So its like a whats the point thing in a way.

Yeah and that was influenced by what came before, etc. I figure all that type stuff is understood. Like now people can try to deny it but the South is most influential as far as rap music. There was a time when it was NY and that area, then West Coast. But the NY sound when most influential was influenced by James Brown whose from Georgia. and influenced Heavily. And Jamaica,as well as their own influences.

Its just how it works. Now that the South is most influential, no Southern dudes say anything about people using slang, accents, subject matter, beats, etc. That type of thing can throw you off focus of Moving forward.

What Dre did with funk music has been mimicked by others. No one has been that revolutionary with an old sound before

Okay I will be honest with this the whole west coast funk is actually jersey artist. Like kool and the gang and the Pfunk. We just loved the sound out west . But we west coasters made it cool to be hard and talk our shit

Well thanks to the east coast for creating the genre in the first place so y'all have y'all own "style" so instead of bitching

You're welcome

Props to New York. I got a lot of love.

But I'll compare it to this when people complain about the East ... Florida A&M University started the Black College Marching Band Style (playing popular pop songs instead of the boring marching music) and paved the way for other big bands like Jackson State, Grambling, Bethune-Cookman, Tennessee State , Southern, etc., etc.

FAMU has a great band, but they took some halftimes Ls too. And sometimes it's hard for FAMU fans to admit they didn't have the best show on a particular Saturday or give props. OR admit that they got an idea from another band.

BIG POPPA DEFINITELY SOUNDS LIKE G-FUNK

 

[moyo]

It's funny my wife was listening to Brat's first album last night n i was tellin her how much she swagger jacked Snoop that whole album. Lol

 

[D.D.S.]

Lmao I never knew how much Da Brat bit Snoop's style back in the day. But G-funk ran the early 90s, so of course they had a lot of imitators.
