@thejrbrand All them other sounds don’t really get national attention until the late 90s and on though which coincides with the internet. Also G-Funk was pretty much THE sound of the 90s which is a hard hurdle to overcome as far as keeping the top spot. It’s a reason people don’t make disco
The thing with G-Funk is that it was very LA-centric. California is a big ass state and NorCal was extremely different from SoCal. It was also developed pre-Internet era so music was a lot more localized/regional back then. Hyphy popped up around the same time as widespread
G-Funk should have been treated like Bounce music, Go-Go music, NJ Club mixes, etc. Black American producers from California, what the fuck yall on????? 🤔
Also doesn’t help that G-Funk was like THE sound of the 90s. When people think of 90s hip-hop they think of East Coast Boom Bap and West Coast G-Funk, so any time people do either of those sounds in their purest forms they just sound like they’re tryna make 90s hip-hop.
That being said, G-Funk influence is still very present. There’s a specific style of R&B/hip-hop out here where the influence is very prominent with people like Kalan.FrFr, Bino Rideaux, Haiti Babii and Nueve Lio. And every once in a while YG drops another track and LA goes up
seeing so many people who have always talked shit about karl, using coded language, generally being nasty towards him, act like they’ve always supported him
@Wooflexis It’s a lot but it is a massive QOL improvement and can genuinely be life-saving depending on climate, compared to industries like fashion or beef which make up a much larger percentage of global emissions and also don’t generally provide nearly as much value
everyone (allegedly) wants gays to just be themselves and not lie to and deceive ppl but nobody wants to actually make the world safe for them to do that lmao
