this one is early ngl.... i really only made this video to talk about Mase. This is lowkey clickbait tbh wouldn't it be funny if I started doing this again
The Bad Boy era was CRAZY it was all about who could have the flashiest things the most women etc I’d say it was more evident then than now believe it or not.
@@KingBenny the audience is there tbh, can see how much your viewers love and appreciate your content. Only thing holding you back is time bro, breakthrough is coming I can feel it
Cause I just wanted to focus more so on the beginning of it... I do know a lot of southern artists were influential but I wanted to focus on the genesis or what I consider the genesis... its not a diss to them
@@KingBenny but it started in the south not NYC. They had bigger and better budgets for videos. Dudes had solid gold teeth not grills like the 2000s. Look at No Limit or Cash Money Take4 and many other album cover from back then. The writing was in bling gold and diamonds. The No Limit Tank was all gold and diamonds. Not to mention the cars in the videos the customized slabs aka low riders, rims sound systems the paint jobs. The south started it.
Honedtly i just think that Ma$e discography doesn't have a lot of ionic stuff for ppl to look back on outside of like 3 songs. Like for casual fans you need more than what Mase has to be iconic or considered an icon I guess
Ooh ayt it's cool fam👌🏾 if you done with ur upcoming projects jst do a lil research about him, his fans are the most loyal mf i know me being one of them, even Chris brown had him on his insta story twice you def go get a huge audience in South Africa with jst one video, also shout to you man your videos are top tier👑👑 and shout to me especially for "probably" put you on😅✌🏾
I lived through 1997-98 Bad Boy everywhere Era. And MA$E was WHACK AF. High school girls liked him, but any guy at my high school who listened to or rapped themselves had no respect for him and didn't want to emulate him. Me being a music fan found Bad Boy's "sampling" to be extremely lazy. They just played the record and sang the chorus to of 70's and 80s big hit pop songs. I'm so glad when Mase went away 2 years later when he "found God" or whatever. Best thing he ever did. I grew up during MC Hammer and Vanilla Ice's 1991 fame, and it felt the same. Pop-Rap. Sean "Puff Daddy" Combs was at least shrewd enough to invest and produce to not end up like Hammer.
I can definitley feel you on that front when you compared him to Vanilla Ice and MC hammer. I can get how you’d feel that way. Maybe it’s just that I was rooting for bad boy because of Biggie, whereas with MC hammer you wouldn’t catch me dead supporting him. Mainly because of how he deep fried rap into pop.
