JT Money, the rapper from Poison Clan, right? He makes straight Miami dance music. I guess it depends on where you are from whether you can dance to it or not. As far as Juvenile, yeah, you can dance to his stuff too, but for the most part, New Orleans is known for their bounce.

You can dance to pretty much anything. But JT Money and Poison Clan made lots of booty music. Later JT Money stuff is more like Trick Daddy (which is still Miami-ish, but not booty music).

that florida booty ish....man, that's all they play down there. but them girls at the club....whooo!!! folks act a fool on the dance floor.

holy shit - i was so confused last night, trying to figure out what Librasoul meant - turns out, the whole time I was confusing the title (as she pointed out) with "Oochy Wally" because I'm a moron.

I had to re-read the thread to figure out what the hell was going on - The lesson?

Don't drink and post, kids.

PS - Billy, if you want an Atmosphere CD, PM me

since when did jennifer lopez count as hip hop music :confused: :confused: :confused: ?

she really shouldnt be in the hip hop category. she only is hip hop when she collaborates with rap artists. that gets on my nerves. it seems like she has to remix all of her songs for it to be a BIG hit. she thinks that she is such a bad ass. call me jealous but i am not. just really annoyed. personally, my fav song by her was 'if you had my love'. then it just went downhill from there.

what is up with mariah carey? i do love her music, but i dont like that she has to have rap artists on her albums. she was so awesome when she was straight pop. now i have to hear cam'ron, nas, mystical, p diddy, jay z, da brat, missy, i know there is more. cant the girl be successful on her own anymore.

mariah reminds me of christina. strip half your clothing and get some rap artists on your albums so you can finally be somebody. they say, 'oh i am jus being me':rolleyes:

about 50 cent, that is about all his music is worth.
ashanti needs to get back behind ja rule singing vocals, she cant do it on her own.
something about eminem is so phony!

i think hip hop has become so corny lately. is there a good rap video where you dont see jello like asses and brests in all their glory?

i do agree with the statement that rap died with tupac.

although i will give snoop some credit cause i just love his voice:D ;)

its what hip hop isnt. but its still labeled as hip hop today.

librasoul, i was talking about later JT Money stuff
because he had since gone solo

I am such a believer that genuine rap died with Tupac. Anyone else think he's coming back this year??

But you guys have TOTALLY lost me on Juvenile's Back that Ass Up having a techno beat. I don't see that at all.

died with pac??!!?!?! :confused: :confused: :confused:

Yes. Agreeing with White Chocolate, smiley, etc.......

You can listen to his entire cd (All Eyez on Me, greatest hits) and never get bored. They were all hits. Had a rhythm, beats got stuck in your head, words made sense.

there are a lot of hip hop artist who fit that bill...

hot (hip hop and dancehall)albums out right now

electric circius-common
quality-talib
phrenology-the roots
rock city-royce the 5'9
dutty rock-sean paul

you can listen to all of those cd's and enjoy yourself.

Wouldn't consider Tupac and Sean Paul or the Roots in the same category. Jay-Z, Nas, Tupac, Biggie I would see together.

So....Tupac's type/category/style died when he *did* (supposedly). IMHO
