"Baby Got Back" wouldn't be a consideration for me if voting in the 90s, but lord, in 2019, this song grates like a motherfucker.
Some of it is what "wite people at karaoke night" did to it, which is obv unfair, but it doesn't feel like a song that was meant to be banged (bung?) forever, whereas most of my favs on this list still sound good to me

Seriously. Crossroads is one of those rare hip hop songs that everyone i know likes.
I blasted it in a hotel room during a party and my friends and i sang it so loud that a bachelorette party called the Front Desk on us three times

No one ever believes me when I say this but when Snow's pre-"Informer" single "Lonely Monday Morning" premiered on hip-hop radio (before anyone knew what he looked like) every hip hop head I knew who heard it (OK, four people) agreed it was an instant classic

informer was popular in jamaica and an all-star remix of a single from his second album was the best selling song in jamaica in 1995

I mean, I don't like 50 that much either but dude never actively ruined children
If you are not the board's resident Bill Cosby sympathizer and you haven't been at largely black events where a DJ will put this on and all of the kids 10 and under get up and do the dance to the song, combined with dude doing shit like "Throw Some D's On It" and (the admittedly funny and only song of his I can stand) "Yah Trick Yah", you will probably not get the level of fundamental antipathy I have for pretty much everything Soulja Boy represents or how that's been embraced as something awesome and fun by black America.

like, there are people who say stupid shit who are obviously making entertainment for adults/young adults who have developed some level of critical thinking combined with life experience, whereas Soulja Boy is just flat-out telling little kids to be annoying ignorant little shits

it really is disgusting and stomach turning how in the late-90s/early-00s we had all these "going straight to THE WILD WILD WEST" or "Here come the MEN IN BLACK" or poor Destiny Child "CHARLIE how your ANGELS get down like that?" hit singles that are basically ads that hold up like shit two years later.
it's like if Survivor was all "ROCKY! ROCK ROCK ROCK! ROCK ROCK ROCKYYYYYYY!" or "Theme From A Summer Place" was like how Jasper sang it on the Simpsons

whiney gets so much shit for this post later on in this thread, but I think he’s right! that goddamn “CHARLIE how your ANGELS get down like that” line is so gratuitous that it totally ruins the song for me.

master p/no limit's strength was always on the album charts! tho some singles sold really well they usually didn't have enough radio play to reach the top 10 even

(whether it's an accurate take or not) it seemed extremely gauche for the guy who inserted himself into Biggie songs to then monetize Biggie's death. and then to do that while ripping off (there's sampling, and then there's ripping off) a very well-known hit, his seemingly only contribution being his limp, emotionless vocals...was a bridge to far for most.

― Muswell Hillbilly Elegy (President Keyes), Monday, 23 December 2019 22:15 (four years ago) link
it was a charity single whose substantial revenues (it was turning a profit after about 500k sold, and it went on to do >3 million) were funneled into a trust fund for biggie's children... and literally the majority of sean combs's hits during that era sampled-and/or-ripped-off other songs that had already been well known hits in their own right. i guess including the song on his own album was questionable
― dyl, Monday, 23 December 2019 22:35 (four years ago) link
"all his other hit songs were shameless ripoffs too" doesn't help him here lol

Maybe instead he coulda sampled Player and done "BIGGIE COME BACK"
