Title: Jerkin: The biggest "movement" L.A. has seen this decade, hands down....
Post by: R-Tistic on April 27, 2009, 04:49:34 PM
Thanks to Youtube and even Myspace...the Jerkin movement here is easily the biggest local sound and culture that L.A. has seen since Gangsta Rap, and that's without question. Even though it's only in L.A. right now, and may not even blow up nationwide, we've always lacked a regional style of party/club music linked with a dance and fashion style/culture.

The main song that's leadin the movement is "You're a jerk," which is the only song most people outside of L.A. have heard. There are about 20-30 songs that the young crowd here loves, and this is all they listen to and care for right now. While most West Coast rap fans are into the new artists and the ones we've been discussin for 4-5 years, along with the legends, the kids here don't care about any of that...they love these songs that are comin from people that go to their high school, that sound VERY amateurish and unpolished. Although all of the songs they love obviously lack the musicianship and creativity that much of our earlier music had, it has the energy and bounce needed to work for the dances and everything that goes along with it.

At this point, I have very mixed feelings about it....the sound is nothing but an obvious offspring of Hyphy, and it has a slight Tampa Bay, Florida influence to it as well. None of the songs I've heard sound like anything I haven't heard before, and most of the rappers are average and below...but they have that L.A. local flow that I thought had been forgotten about. The fact that these kids have made it big without any radio or TV is amazing to me...and it's funny that these HS kids with NO deal, no mentor, and no major connections or relatives are getting WAY MORE requests and love than the numerous signed/unsigned acts we've spent the last few years talking about. They definitely need to evolve it, because all of the songs sound the exact same, and none of them are as strong as the strongest Hyphy tracks were.

Here are the main songs the 21 and under crowd out here are goin hardest on.......
New Boyz - You're a jerk

Pink Dollaz - Never hungry

I wonder if Snoop will do a jerkin song...if so, this will probably make some noise, just as Hyphy did when 40 and Short used hyphy tracks for their main singles. I can even predict that Snoop's first single for his next album will be a jerkin type of song...even "Drop it like it's hot" had the same feel/vibe as a lot of these songs do.

Well those songs haven't made any kinda noise here as of yet. I think Ya Boy's COULD, it has much more of a Jerkin feel than K-Boy's...it's similar to Hyphy, where a lot of Bay artists made songs where they'd say "hyphy" on it, but the beat wouldn't move the crowd or work for the dances.

yea honestly this is what is goin bring back LA to the spotlight once again..This new song by New Boyz - Your A Jerk is blowin up outside of LA and has reached other regions like mine for example..Im not much a big fan of the jerkin cuz like R-Tistic said it sounds unpolished and a bit ameture ish but it has what LA has been missin for the longest time and thats some danceable music

ya boy's jerkin is not a representation of what the bay sounds like.

d-lo's no hoe is a slapper except for the fact dude can't rhyme worth shit. the remix is tolerable

oh well, 90% of dubcc doesn't give a shit about music after 1996

Yeah, I mean jerkin is really like 80% Bay to me...nothin about it is L.A., and none of it has really outgrown or evolved from the Bay song. Two of the songs they like are the exact same beat as Candy, they just looped it and rapped about jerkin to it.

This is ALLLL the L.A. heads do now, especially the younger ones...no more clown dancin, no more crip/clown walk, unless you with an older crowd. If you do a HS event, these are the only songs they ask for...barely any Wayne, Snoop, old school, or anything else, just Jerkin songs. The older heads are on it a bit too, and you are hearin "You're a jerk" in the 21+ clubs all the time now, but none of the other songs crossed over yet. Even the 30, 40+ are doin the dances with their kids, it's kinda funny, LOL.

Aside from those songs, the biggest songs for these crowds/dances are....
E-40 ft. Too Short - Sliding down the pole
D4L - Scotty (Geeked up)
Khia - Look back at it; K-Wang
3 Deep - Watch my shoes
The Pack - Light that shit

Basically so...because everybody from around the country who's seen it has been on it too, especially the club heads and anybody who likes to party.

I know many "true" L.A. heads aren't gonna like it much, but I just feel this needs to evolve and become stronger and more solid to where it isn't just a fad that sounds wack in a few years. A lot of the hyphy tracks that came out STILL sound amazing and as dope as they did when they dropped, such as the ones from Short, Federation, Keak...but some of the smaller hits sound wack now.

Hyphy had great moments to me.

This isn't the sound most of us are lookin for, but it's more than just the music...the dancing involved is really the most important thing here. With the clown/krump movement, that was VERY strong, but it had NO music to go along with it, which was a major mistake. With this here, the dances are accessible and somethin that people nationwide could get into, and that is good and bad...it could be seen as just a fad, but it's time that we had something completely different and just fun.

I really just want some of our main producers to take the backbone of this and re-package it...they don't have to make it funky or anything like that, but just somethin similar to how Rick Rock and Lil Jon made some amazing beats durin the Hyphy movement.

Co-fucking sign! Ol' heads are boring me with that bullshit

I was skeptical at first but if Jerkin is what the ppl want then Jerkin is what they get

I hope Ya Boy's joint pops off cos dude is a good rapper at the end of the day!

Post by: you gon always be my latin queen bitch on April 27, 2009, 05:26:17 PM
thats waz up
again from a few spins of listenin to this "new movement of muzik-its new to me) im not feelin it
but if it sells, i guess whoevers behind it, go head and push it
but at the end of the day, what will bring this coast back is str8 bangers from wc, ice cube, xzibit
for example
back in 2000 when xzibit did the whole x marked the spot movement (haha jus named it that)
aite he had 3 singles
1.x
2.front 2 back
3.get your walk on

aite right there you got 3 bangers, to me they were 3 anthems by 1 rapper from this coast.  they werent 100% gangsta but they were bangin
get your walk on, i mean i seen and watched cats all over the world do the c-walk to that shit.
so we had muffuccaz from different regions doin what he had initially put out there as song.  of course nwa, king t, wc, cubes, mack 10's etc.. did it years before, but that era was crazy for us and fresh
and that sound is still fresh
so bottomline i think that sound/movement needs to be brought back wit todays sound, and it can be done.
wc's last album is a example of what im talkin about.

I first heard about this jerkin late last year when I seen kids from Gardena high after school dancing/jerkin with their ipods on in the mcdonald parking lot on artesia/normandie and in the streets on the sidewalk. @ first I was like WTF. But I later found out more about it from a kid at work jerkin, and still I was like WTF. I think its cool. It has that The Pack sound. In general the beats sound simple like somethin I can whip up using my psp traxxpad..lol.

I think that L.A.'s "Jerk" movement can kinda restart the "Hyphy" movement and if artists can keep their shit together,  Cali can come back on top.

But that's just me! haha

LOL...doesn't matter, I'm here in L.A. and I didn't know who any of these rappers were, or any of the other ones who've been makin noise with these songs.

As I said, it is a "local" sound...and most cities have a local song that may or may never break out commercially, but in most cases, you'll hear a few major songs from that sound, while locally, the biggest songs remain 100% local.

It's brand new, and it's really being held down by the youngsters...so if you aren't around them, and don't have kids or brothers/sisters/cousins, you may be here in L.A. and still not know about it. But for those that know about it, believe me, it's all they care about.

I definitely believe you, it hasn't made it to the 21+ mixed scene too much, but I did hear it in Hollywood at the Cabana last week, so I can tell it's slowly gettin there.

It is probably still a black thing that's mainly being held down by the L.A. black areas....Long Beach, Watts, Compton, Gardena, Mid City, South Central, Lakewood, Lynwood, Hawthorne, Inglewood, and slowly to the suburbs...so it hasn't completely broke out...but if you see the videos, there are some white dudes at UCLA doin it.

Well the thing is, every city has a local/regional sound that ONLY they know about...and they usually get the main artist to do a few songs that bring it to the forefront, but even if it's not on TV or being done nationwide, it'll still be big in that area.

Chicken noodle soup is a perfect example....if you were in Harlem, you'd see that "Gettin lite" is MAJOR, just as Jerkin is here...and that is basically an offspring of the whole Chicken Noodle Soup style...the main song is from DJ Webstar, Ron Browz, and the Swag Kids called "5000"...cute little song. For New Orleans, we heard "Back dat azz up" and "I need a hot girl" but most people outside of Louisiana don't realize that it's all part of the New Orleans bounce style, which has a million songs that have that same exact bounce and Triggerman sample...and that's been major there for ten years, but nobody really knows about it. "Drop and give me 50" is the last big song that emulated that sound.

DC, Chicago, Tampa Bay, Miami, and most cities have a local club/dance sound that is major there, but rarely breaks through. You'd assume that Pitbull and Rick Ross are the biggest artists to locals in Miami, but nah...Bizzle, Chipman, Grind Mode, Piccalo, and others have the main songs that they love out there, especially for the black crowd.

So yeah....that's partially why I'm "excited" because I have been to a lot of diff. cities and seen how their local sound ran things....and we've never really had that here in L.A. We've been geared to just love whatever is on Radio and TV...so to see somethin jump off with NO radio or TV help, and without any Snoop/DPG/Dre co-sign is amazing.

Personally, it's not about the sound really starting a movement that's gonna have a major impact...as I said, it's the biggest "LOCAL" sound that we've had...I don't think people get that, but I'm not surprised...why? Because we've NEVER had a f'kin local sound!

This is definitely straight Hyphy rip off music wise, and only a few songs really sound different from Hyphy or even Wayne...but it's more about the entire culture behind it, and especially the dancing itself. I think it shows many signs of a fad, and if it doesn't evolve quickly, it'll definitely burn out before it even has a chance to be major...but right now, I think it's wild that the kids don't give a f'k about ANY of the artists or songs that we have talked about here for years, aside from Nipsey Hussle. Lookin at G. Malone, Bishop, Crooked I, and even to Cube, Quik, Kurupt, and the rest of our legends...it's horrible that the kids don't care about them, but it really shows how out of touch the youth is here with the older artists and stereotypical West Coast sound...and it goes vice versa as well.

This isn't what I mean by "local" sound...G-Funk ended up becoming nationwide, and everybody from the other coasts were on it as well. With a "local" sound...I'm really speaking more about the kind of sound that is major in one city or state, but will usually only have a few major songs to come out, if any, that have that same sound. G-Funk was too major to be seen as "local"...and this definitely isn't gonna be anything near what G-Funk was.

aite right there you got 3 bangers, to me they were 3 anthems by 1 rapper from this coast.  they werent 100% gangsta but they were bangin
get your walk on, i mean i seen and watched cats all over the world do the c-walk to that shit.
so we had muffuccaz from different regions doin what he had initially put out there as song.  of course nwa, king t, wc, cubes, mack 10's etc.. did it years before, but that era was crazy for us and fresh
and that sound is still fresh
so bottomline i think that sound/movement needs to be brought back wit todays sound, and it can be done.
wc's last album is a example of what im talkin about.


Well here's the thing that I think is crazy...these kids who are doin this Jerkin are not even thinkin about "bringin the West back" or thinkin about the "West Coast" in general. From all the songs I've heard, I haven't heard a single one mention the "West Coast"...and when I think about it, it's even crazier that these kids are 14-18...meaning that they weren't even here when we were on top...most of em were born AFTER "Nothin but a G Thang" LOL! So to them, they don't have any sort of West Coast pride, and didn't grow up on that sound...and ironically, that may be the reason that their sound will end up getting more attention nationwide than anything reminiscent of what most of us older fans love.

I think it's all a gift and a curse, and I'm looking more at the long run than what's going on at this moment. Most of these songs and artists sound VERY unpolished, and most of the songs don't have much of a lasting appeal at all...and it all sounds like Hyphy and other music we've heard before...but this time, the dance is more important than the music, which is the reason ATL got major...and the thing about dancing is that it is universal and will attract more people of all ages, races, and from all regions, than music alone seems to do. What I hope is that they evolve the music to where it is legit and where the youngsters feel as if they have to still be able to rap good as hell, along with having great production, versus just putting out the cookie cutter songs they are puttin out now.

I just listened to this song on youtube. This shit ain't gonna start no west coast movement. Its just another extension of the hyphy movement. Just another song to put a dance to.

the hyphy movement has nothing to do with jerkin. two totally different areas of cali with their own style.

I'm from the bay. Its the exact same sound. Only diff is they say jerkin in the hook.

The sound is the same...but the culture outside of it is a lot different.

Yeah, the songs didn't get big til the end of last year. Problem's track is major, it's a liiil old now but it still works and I still play it a whole lot.

I honestly think it's somethin that you have to be in L.A. to understand...and you have to be around certain crowds to get it. I wouldn't expect a lot of the online fans to see the potential in it. I think the dancin culture has more potential than most of the music that's goin with it right now.

Thanks to Youtube and even Myspace...the Jerkin movement here is easily the biggest local sound and culture that L.A. has seen since Gangsta Rap, and that's without question. Even though it's only in L.A. right now, and may not even blow up nationwide, we've always lacked a regional style of party/club music linked with a dance and fashion style/culture.

The main song that's leadin the movement is "You're a jerk," which is the only song most people outside of L.A. have heard. There are about 20-30 songs that the young crowd here loves, and this is all they listen to and care for right now. While most West Coast rap fans are into the new artists and the ones we've been discussin for 4-5 years, along with the legends, the kids here don't care about any of that...they love these songs that are comin from people that go to their high school, that sound VERY amateurish and unpolished. Although all of the songs they love obviously lack the musicianship and creativity that much of our earlier music had, it has the energy and bounce needed to work for the dances and everything that goes along with it.

At this point, I have very mixed feelings about it....the sound is nothing but an obvious offspring of Hyphy, and it has a slight Tampa Bay, Florida influence to it as well. None of the songs I've heard sound like anything I haven't heard before, and most of the rappers are average and below...but they have that L.A. local flow that I thought had been forgotten about. The fact that these kids have made it big without any radio or TV is amazing to me...and it's funny that these HS kids with NO deal, no mentor, and no major connections or relatives are getting WAY MORE requests and love than the numerous signed/unsigned acts we've spent the last few years talking about. They definitely need to evolve it, because all of the songs sound the exact same, and none of them are as strong as the strongest Hyphy tracks were.

Here are the main songs the 21 and under crowd out here are goin hardest on.......
New Boyz - You're a jerk

I wonder if Snoop will do a jerkin song...if so, this will probably make some noise, just as Hyphy did when 40 and Short used hyphy tracks for their main singles. I can even predict that Snoop's first single for his next album will be a jerkin type of song...even "Drop it like it's hot" had the same feel/vibe as a lot of these songs do.




Awesome, I love hearing new fads where all the songs sound the same.... ::)

That jerking style of dancing looks like a mixture of skipping, running in place, that Russian dance where they cross their arms and squat down kicking their feet out repeatedly, and Riverdance

The music is no different than if hyphy and snap music had a one night stand and drank all through pregnancy...and out of it came jerkin dance

Don't trip, as I said, they NEED to evolve it if they want it to go far. That's no question, but seein how strong the support base is, somebody can easily capitalize off of it.

^^I have no problem with the kids doing something that's theirs, I mean when people think of the West Coast/LA they think of Snoop & Dre, but there's a lot of different sounds out here. There's nothing wrong with gangsta rap, but it's also good for kids to be exposed to something else besides that all the time. As far as the dances go, it looks like a knockoff of going dumb, and the sound reminds me of a lower quality mix of The Pack and The Cool Kids.

ay real talk r-tistic we may not agree or maybe we do, regardless good lookin on havin this debate and and bein able to take both sides good or bad
you got alotta valid points, im jus not feelin this jerk thing, but if others are thats what it is

No doubt, yeah I mean it's def not for everybody but what is? I'm more of a supporter of the youth doin somethin without our direction or "approval."

it's the same shit that NWA did 20 years ago. i bet there were critics back then that thought NWA was horrible just like we have people thinking jerkin is wack

LMAO, the word "Jerkin" does sound funny as hell. Some of it does look questionable, but most dances never look "masculine" or gangsta aside from the old school Crip Walk.

The thing about gettin G. Malone/Jay Rock/Nipsey/Cube/etc. etc. is that there's no need for them to...but ALL of these artist's nephews, cousins, and kids are into the whole shit, even if they hate it. I have never said I loved or hated it, I just had to let everybody here know about it because it's really what's big here in the city...but the kids have made this blow up without needing ANYONE'S approval, and the companies and kids across the nation are more interested in this than anything else we have goin here, which is good and bad to me. It's DEFINITELY NOT for gangstas...and to say "L.A. is known for gangsta rap" shows that we NEED somethin else, because that is NOT gonna work 15-20 years after "Gangsta rap" lost it's flame.

(Crank dat) Soulja Boy was just one song, and it created a few spin off songs, but of course that's gone. Chicken noodle soup was just a song/dance, but "Get lite" is the whole movement in NY and it's definitely not dead...it's just very regional. With "Crunk", we saw different phases of it and different sounds came from it that you still hear in the South...none of it is labeled as "Crunk" but you can tell what came from where.

I have never said this WILL bring the West back, or that it is supposed to be anything more than a typical phase...but fact is, it's big enough to where something could happen from it, and it's at least worth looking at in my opinion. There hasn't been anything that the youngsters here have loved, even for a 5 minute phase, that came from L.A. since I was in High School in 2001 when we had Eastsidaz/DPG/Bad Azz/E-40/Snoop/Xzibit out....everybody was clown dancin, but there was no music with it.

With this, everybody in other states who sees it says they can tell it came straight from Hyphy, and none of the youngsters here are claimin it like L.A. created it all...and the youngsters here really grew up more on Hyphy than Gangsta Rap, so of course they are gonna be influenced more by that than anything else.

I think some people from the Bay are ready to start intra-state wars that aren't even necessary, because most people in L.A. are beefin too hard with each other to beef with another part of the state, LOL. But overall, no one here has EVER denied the Bay's influence here, so don't trip. No need for the cockiness or bitterness.

When kids do it, it's a look good, I love to watch them get lite and do they lil dancin', especially the elementary school kids, but the middle school niggas be gettin' it in. I'm from CT, so whatever's goin' on in New York, comes here, and every coast, region, whatever got they thang, of course, but it's definitely a positive thang, it's keeps 'em preoccupied and when they do, do the chicken noodle soup, shit is live. They kids, men! Shit is ghetto as fuck and I love it. This being said even wit this case of 'jerkin'. Like 'krumpin', and so forth..


When a grown ass kidd starts doin' the shit, it's gay ass hell, and korny as fuck. And that needa's to be stopped. The fashion must go, you a boy, get the fuck out of them tight ass pants and out the queer state of mind.

When a mainstream artist takes it and puts it on there, as an acknowledgment, it's aight wit me. I don't see a problem wit that really. They respecting the kids.


So when the lil niggas get on a movement like this, more power to them. But nigga's needa let it be for them, that's my opinion. As for the tunes, the music is dance music, for them to dance too, so people needa to chill out wit callin' it wack. They dancin' to it people. They ain't goin' home in their bed wit it in their earphones tryin' to compare it to Tupac. Do these artists deserve to blow up from it? Nahhh, not in my opinion cuz than we have Soulja Boy. But it is what it is. Like the 69 Boyz, that whole Miami bass era, shit, you just gettin' down to it. Why you callin' music wack that ain't meant to be lyrical or tryin' to be.....now that's Plies, Rick Ross, T.I., Flo-rida, etc. Not these Young B's and Webstar's or whatever, or these West Coast cat's too..

GREAT post...I can definitely get with that.

I think it's corny if the 25+ were heavy into it like the kids. Most of the 21-30 crowd are dancin a lil like the kids are, but not to where it's corny...it's really just the main "Jerk" dance with the elbows out, and you can tell that really just came from the 90's "Gangsta boogie" that Snoop and everybody else did. I think the High Schoolers look hella silly doin it, and they'll definitely clown each other in 10 years, but it's all in fun.

I agree, it really is just a dance for the streets...I never said it's the "biggest thing L.A.'s had that's gonna bring us back to the spotlight and run the decade" because I doubt it is...but it's easily the largest thing I've seen since HS that came from here. It is definitely just dancin music, and it's nothin wrong with that...most of these fans here aren't from L.A., so they might prefer hearin the Gangbangers rap about murder and drugs...but for me bein around these kids around here, I'd MUCH RATHER them rappin and bumpin Jerkin songs than the gangbang content we used to listen to, because that wasn't just rap on paper...that was really what was goin on in the 90's and has slowed down now. The music itself isn't nearly as good, but I do prefer the content of it.

the bay is like the unmentioned trend setter for everything. they started all that bape hoody shit like that whole style. by the time new york and shit was on that shit, it was already old and washed up in the bay. but in the bay we are hella more laid back so we take all the worlds poserisms as compliments.

But overall, no one here has EVER denied the Bay's influence here, so don't trip. No need for the cockiness or bitterness.

I can dig that, I think a lot of folks from the Bay feel the disrespect in that their artists don't get major attention from the majors, but some of that is choice. Most people from LA have respect for the Bay, there's a few haters but that's going to be everywhere. Music has gotten somewhat repetitive and it's a copycat type industry, you build on what others have done. So this sounds a lot like hyphy tracks recorded in some kid's bedroom, I respect that they are doing something and getting airplay off it. I think the phrase of "the biggest movement LA has seen" made it seem like everyone though it was original, but even the hyphy thing wasn't that original, it slowly evolved and by the time people actually took notice, it was different than what anyone had heard before.

Thanks to Youtube and even Myspace...the Jerkin movement here is easily the biggest local sound and culture that L.A. has seen since Gangsta Rap, and that's without question. Even though it's only in L.A. right now, and may not even blow up nationwide, we've always lacked a regional style of party/club music linked with a dance and fashion style/culture.

The main song that's leadin the movement is "You're a jerk," which is the only song most people outside of L.A. have heard. There are about 20-30 songs that the young crowd here loves, and this is all they listen to and care for right now. While most West Coast rap fans are into the new artists and the ones we've been discussin for 4-5 years, along with the legends, the kids here don't care about any of that...they love these songs that are comin from people that go to their high school, that sound VERY amateurish and unpolished. Although all of the songs they love obviously lack the musicianship and creativity that much of our earlier music had, it has the energy and bounce needed to work for the dances and everything that goes along with it.

At this point, I have very mixed feelings about it....the sound is nothing but an obvious offspring of Hyphy, and it has a slight Tampa Bay, Florida influence to it as well. None of the songs I've heard sound like anything I haven't heard before, and most of the rappers are average and below...but they have that L.A. local flow that I thought had been forgotten about. The fact that these kids have made it big without any radio or TV is amazing to me...and it's funny that these HS kids with NO deal, no mentor, and no major connections or relatives are getting WAY MORE requests and love than the numerous signed/unsigned acts we've spent the last few years talking about. They definitely need to evolve it, because all of the songs sound the exact same, and none of them are as strong as the strongest Hyphy tracks were.

Here are the main songs the 21 and under crowd out here are goin hardest on.......

I wonder if Snoop will do a jerkin song...if so, this will probably make some noise, just as Hyphy did when 40 and Short used hyphy tracks for their main singles. I can even predict that Snoop's first single for his next album will be a jerkin type of song...even "Drop it like it's hot" had the same feel/vibe as a lot of these songs do.

exactly. If this were 1992, some of you guys would be the ones bitching and moaning about how these young idiots were stealing leon haywood and such. You're setting yourselves up for alzheimers with this shit.
