I MEAN

This shit still gives me goosebumps, and I was probably a good 5 years late to the party back then. That video, the production, the feeling of the whole thing is just.... WAP is cool I guess, but damn? These shits were movies. Bout to go put my Timbs on even tho its 78'F

Edit: I know they do got their own music & everybody always outgrows current culture and start making posts like these, but you can't tell me flossin on tiktok got shit on this, nostalgia aside

The kids have their own "Shook Ones". And we'll likely never understand the appeal either.
13403675, True. But still ;)

13403737, No. The mystique is gone and the lyrics are too disposable nowadays

The young street artists coming out of NYC are too doped up and don't read anything.

13403759, Kids discover this song and that era everyday..

...something we didn't have as kids ..yeah we could go back to early 70s funk and soul, but kids today have SO MUCH hip hop to discover and access to it all.. ..some of them just need to be pointed in the right direction

..same with video games!! ..kids are playing the shit out of 80s and 90s games today ...kind of like how we loved comic books from the 60s&70s, and 70s Kung Fu flicks ...dope shit will always have a place






13403762, They'll have something else thats like Shook Ones for them
Posted by sectachrome86, Wed Sep-16-20 12:45 PM
I don't have any nostalgia towards this song and I agree with you. But music changes and our taste is grounded in an older sound.
13403775, Used to love Mobb Deep, but grew out of thug rap HARD
Posted by flipnile, Wed Sep-16-20 01:48 PM
Still like the beat and the flow, but them lyrics ain't working for me anymore.

Probably a few of these mumble raps out now are gonna be "classics" to now young folk.
13403791, These kids got rappers that actually murdered people
Posted by Mafamaticks, Wed Sep-16-20 02:21 PM
they'll be fine
13403807, kids? we have about 3 or 4 generations since then
Posted by double negative, Wed Sep-16-20 03:27 PM
and those generations would be all considered "kids"
13404709, These kids are too soft...
