6. "What started this new trend anyway?" In response to In response to 0
I think it was with the advent of Puffy and Biggy. I could be wrong but that was the first time i can remember when people started rapping about money and jewelry. I don't know, I think that one song was made...sold millions and the next man came along was like "Hey this shit works" and he did the same thing. From then on it just spread like wildfire. Same thing with R&B. You wouldn't dare catch Luther singing a song about getting an erection while on the dance floor. Hopefully somebody will follow the Roots and Common's lead and we'll get back to where we started.
