The Top One Hit Wonders Of The 00s

I think what happened in the second half of the 00s is people stopped sampling and they relied heavily on 808 bass.

Most of the songs that were hot from 2000-2004 were samples, which is a New York thing. But then the South took over with the 808 and the idea of paying for samples didn't make sense anymore. Why pay for a sample when you can have the deepest 808 that the human ear can detect that makes your body vibrate and it doesn't cost anything?

At least that's how I saw it from my perspective.

In hindsight, a lot of the songs and albums that came out of New York that are considered classics don't have any sub-bass. But I still liked them at the time.

You can't tell me that you haven't noticed that the hot New York albums (Blueprint, Stillmatic, GRODT, etc.) don't have the sub-bass that the Southern stuff that came out circa 05-09.

No.

WTF are you listening to. Blueprint, Stillmatic, and Get Rich don't sound like no fucking Laffy Taffy or Pop, Lock & Drop It.

You missed my point.

New York Albums don't have the sub-bass that southern albums have. They might now, but when No Limit and Cash Money were poppin in the late 90s and early 00s the major distinction was the Southern music had more sub-bass.
 
2005-2008 get very few complaints from me. Great music and fun times. Only complaint was Cam and Dipset bringing that swag, designer tight clothes shit into the mainstream. Overall, though, the 2000's have been great music wise
