REGARDLESS OF WHAT SOME FOLKS HAVE SAID IN THE INDUSTRY, HYPHY IS NOT DEAD. REMEMBER IT IS A LIFESTYLE! SO UNLESS HALF THE BAYS YOUTH AND ELDERS HAVE CHANGED THEY'RE LIFESTYLE, IN WHICH I KNOW THEY HAVE'NT, HYPHY AINT DEAD! MOST OF THE BAY AREA'S AND ALL OF SACRAMENTO'S ARTISTS DON'T WANT TO ASSOCIATE THEMSELVES AS A HYPHY RAPPER, BUT ALL WILL CALL THEMSELVES HYPHY IF MTV OR BET SAID THEY WERE. SO BE PROUD OF OUR CULTURE AND ITS HYPE. YES WE IN THE BAY DO SET TRENDS EVERY OTHER DAY BUT WE MUST PROTECT OUR BIGGEST ASSETS, WHICH THIS HYPHY MOVEMENT IS..SAME WITH OUR MOB ROOTS. I BELIEVE L.A RAP STARTED GANGSTA MUSIC BUT WE (THE BAY AND SAC) PERFECTED IT. BUT A TRUE ARTIST CAN GET DOWN ON ANY BEAT, LOOK AT E-40...WE MIGHT NOT LIKE THE BEATS HE CHOOSES BUT WE SURE DO LOVE WHAT HE SAYS! ONE OF THE MAIN REASONS WHY THIS MOVEMENT IS OVER IN SOME MINDS IS BECAUSE THE FEDERATION HAVE'NT DROPPED, KEAK DA SNEAK AINT DROPPED, NO HYPHY MUSIC IS COMING OUT IN A MAJOR WAY. I SAY EVERYONE EXPLORE OTHER SOUNDS, OTHER PRODUCERS, OTHER ARTISTS..A DIFFERENT SOUND IS WHAT THE INDUSTRY IS ALWAYS LOOKING FOR, THE NEXT BIG THING! WELL I SAID ENOUGH...
hyphy is hella dead homie lol

why do you guys really hate hyphy so much?

i'd love to somehow get to the root of your issues with it

did you feel the same when mac dre was alive?

or when keak dropped white t blue jeans and nikes?

did you play tell me when to go?

i just wanna pinpoint your exact hangup with a style of music

i understand if youre tired of people getting coked up and crashing their cars for retarded reasons, or shooting ak-47 clips out the sunroof at an entire block and yelling 'whaddaddaaaaa' if youre tired of that hyphy, understandable, but the other shit is just music? better than new boyz imo..

^Dre and a few others that invented it, made something new and their own...my GIANT issues were the FLOCKS of rappers who outright copied it. How many artists had the song titles "Go Dumb" or "Ghostride the Whip"...it was embarassing. Even if the song is the same concept...can't you come up with a NEW title??? Aren't you a 'musician'??

so your hate is more or less the lack of creativity by the artists themselves and not necessarily what hyphy was...right? just trying to make sure i got it clear, cuz i agree with that.

i think no one knew what to do with hyphy at the point of dre dying. but when i listen to shit like sleepy d, hbr click, dlo, hus shit liek zestways or 'yo momma aint nothin but a bitch'. even some beeda weeda shit, i feel like hyphy still exists and some do it right, and it always has existed tho, to me it was just music that was more high energy.

i def. see your point if thats what you were getting at though.

Absolutely, the utter lack of creativity ( excluding the inventors ). Then the morons that took it WAAAAAAAAY too far with the loud clothing, giant oversized retard glasses...again, NOT how Dre, Fab, etc did it and made it their own, but how others took it over the top and it just looked fuckin queer as fuck. They all wanted the SAME beat, SAME lyrics, SAME song titles...just a bad look.

i think it was for the kids tho. when it became fullblown music. thats why they prolly wasnt the best. i mean when i look at who was into hyphy...it was the cd buyers and young kids who go to shows. the little filipino girls with theyoversized glasses popping their collars looking goofy. but i saw $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ . i dont know what everyone else saw during that time.

i wish more people could have capitalized on it in a good way without letting it be whatever the kids wanted it to be. cuz them kids down here are jerking....annoying gay kids with tight jeans they are but they have a movement and im sure theyll cash out to someone to have a soundtrack for their culture or whatever the fuck it is
