Is Hyphy helping the Bay?

[TRAJIK1]

With the hyphy movement comes a style like no other in the country, but is this a good thing or bad thing? The whole yellow bus thing? goin dumb? ghost riding? whats you take on it all, is it helping the Bay get back on the map? Or is it making us look stupid and making it harder for us to be accepted on a national level?

 

[fillyacup]

what it is now no. what it was at 2000ish up until a lil after mac dre passed, yes....now everyone cashin in on the shit an aint tryna be original

 

[BASEDVATO]

yellow bus is hurting us, making us look bubble gum and kiddy.

Theres an old saying, how does it go?..."If It Don't Make Dollars It Don't Make Sense"...hummm

 

[localstar907]

hyphy and mac dre passing put the bay back in the industry bowl. Its up to the bay and its artist to do the rest.

 

[ni6apinoflavord]

the yellow bus thing is stupid that shit is getting out of hand. but everything else is coo.

 

[Imonone]

Nah, too many people think of the bay as ONLY hyphy.

 

[bimmerlohver]

[Defy]

[Meta4iCAL]

who gives a fuck

for real, how many times is this question or a similar one going to be brought up? This discussion has taken place hellla times on BART, think of something original to start a thread about

 

[mouth_my_nuts]

i swear yall act like people LIVE on this forum board..damn, the man just wants to hear peoples opinions...

 

[Bullit_Tooth]

i'm suprised this commercialized hyphy "movement" has been around as long as it has....hyphy was coo back when it was an extension of mob music...you had all types of dope releases droppin like Keak the sneak(Copium) Messy Marv (Disobayish) San Quinn (I Give You My Word) and gang of other albums...

most of this commercialized "crunk" sounding shit is kinda wack, it's slowly dying out though and you're starting to see more modern day mob music from people like the mob figaz, killa kiese, ya boy, j stalin, clyde carson, turf talk, etc....

It's already been set in motion. It's not like we can call it back now.

As far as it being good it has it's moments. There are dozens of youtube vids with people GHOST RIDING like tards. So we have been recognized in that sense.

 

[SteadyMobbin]

Yes... Hyphy helped a lot. Bay is recognized.. whether its negative or positive feedback.

[The Visualizer]

I think there's a lot of confusion between HYPHY & THIZZ.

I don't even know where to begin there's too much to simplify in one post.
