"who would have thought b&y would ever have been a crossover hit? "
tbh was not very surprised by this at all

surprised by how big it got, sure -- wasnt expecting top 5 in this climate for rap -- but its further proof that there are more marketing/access issues w/ rap not charting than aesthetic ones imo

the steelers winning the superbowl is gonna take that song to a new level too

i guess the Stargate thing could have been a tipoff, but other than that anything else pointing to that song successfully crossing over is complete 20/20 hindsight etc

Thread in trib_Ote of wiz khalifa's alice deejay-sampling 'say yeah'
wish this was more of a smoking guni also said i thought it was gonna be a hit when i UL'd it **elsewhere** but cant rlly prove that

like do Wiz fans like "Black And Yellow" or just kind of tolerate it? that shit is garbage.

circumstantial ill agree. i need to start declaring future hits out the gate
black & yellow is catchy as shit -- its exactly why its getting covered by rappers all over right now

maybe this is too late to be considered prescient. but i did think it was catchy & great pretty early on
― tuomascratch beat (deej), Wednesday, 26 January 2011 22:42 (fifteen years ago)
it's not just a "hit"
it's very possibly going to be the NUMBER ONE SONG in the country or at least 2nd-4th
that's a big surprise
― surfboard dudes get wiped out, totally, Wednesday, 26 January 2011 22:44 (fifteen years ago)
but yeah i see you believed in its potential
Is there anything else in this seeming mini-genre of rap vets going over kind of low-key beats?
I'm getting this vibe from the Fiend tape, and definitely from "Marcberg" and "Everything's Berri." Maybe the Pilot Talk albums--but not quite. Precursors might be the GZA/Muggs Grandmasters project and Prodigy's "Return of the Mac."
― President Keyes, Wednesday, 26 January 2011 23:03 (fifteen years ago)
prodigy's feels diff to me cuz alchemist is a lil too showy to be consider 'low key', and stuff like 'mac 10 handle' is a classic break, 'new york shit' was out & out extroverted, but yeah otherwise im w/ you that this is an interesting direction / grouping for these artists ...

hey just fyi i posted a new mystikal single that was produced by mannie fresh and you guys are talking about wiz khalifa

― tuomascratch beat (deej), Thursday, 27 January 2011 03:24 (fifteen years ago)
yeah it's a weird song that i'm not sure i like
― wee-based god (J0rdan S.), Thursday, 27 January 2011 03:27 (fifteen years ago)
"touch ya own self nasty"mystikal sounds old and... well just really old.I like it.
― i turned my head n boom I saw that tweet #wow (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 27 January 2011 03:32 (fifteen years ago)
keyes maybe check out shabazz palaces if u haven't, it's kinda more maximal beatwise i suspect but i feel like it cld be bracketed with the ones u mention in the sense of old guys quietly making personal albums
― zvookster, Thursday, 27 January 2011 03:38 (fifteen years ago)
the mystikal song is incredible
I'll jave to tjink abt the tricky influence later

― The Reverend, Thursday, 27 January 2011 04:15 (fifteen years ago)
this is a joint out of tampa that's four or five months but i'm starting to hear it on the radio pretty often down here
it's pretty much a straight trill ent song which is a good thing
