Title: i still think 'in da club'.....
Post by: NobodyButMe on January 30, 2004, 12:47:41 PM
was the best song of the new millenium. ya'll can talk about how stupid i am and how retarded i am, but that is one of the hardest beats i've ever heard. and 50 rode it perfectly (even though i believe that em wrote the hook). i'd have to say it's one of the most solid tracks i've heard since pac passed away....anyone else agree?

don't try to say that you haven't heard 99 other rappers tryin to rock over that beat. i've heard so many people tryin to rap over this beat it's ridiculous. and still, no matter how much i hate him, 50 rocked it the best....

best song of the new millenium as in anything after 2000(or was it 2001 or 1999, i forgot how they do the start of the century thing), then you're probably right. i dont recall a single song making as big of an impact as it did it recent years.

Just becouse it makes a huge impact doesnt mean its good music . Mc Hammer also made a huge hit , but does it mean its good ? Hell no ! I think you proved yourself to not be checking out enough good hip hop music . In da club is a good song...when youre partying , but I can name a million songs that came after the year 2000 that is much better

just because it makes a huge impact doesn't mean it's NOT good music. look at any dre album. any pac album. any album that made a huge impact probably made a huge impact because it was good at one time. i'm from the old school, and i remember when hammer came out, hammer was THA SHIZNIT. don't front, anyone in here born before 82' probably listened to hammer and thought it was dope for the time. that's why DEATH ROW signed hammer when DEATH ROW was on top of the world. yeah, lookin back on it now, we see it as whack. but don't deny that it wasn't dope for it's time.

like i said, i'm from the old school, and i can't recall anything as good as when pac was alive. i'm sure that there ARE a million songs that are dope in your eyes, but being a fan of the earlier days of rap, 'in da club' ranks up there FOR ME with many of the west coast classics.

tell me, what kind of lyrical content did the chronic have? it made a huge impact for it's time. yet the lyrics on a classic like 'the chronic' pale in comparison to a release by even an average rapper nowadays. you can't take albums out of context and compare them to albums from other time periods.

i'm sayin, to me, 'in da club' reminds me of some classic westcoast bangers, and it's probably the latest one to remind me of a westcoast banger since anything pac has done (or maybe bad azz's personal business album). i think 'in da club' brings back exactly what west coast rap was lacking - hard basslines and dope hooks.

by the way, do we consider 'in da club' a westcoast song? i do. i don't know why but i do.

are you guys kidding...it's obviously that the biggest hit of the new millenium is "The Real Slim Shady"...because of that single the MMLP went on to sell 1.7 mil in it's first week and about 9.4 to date..."In Da Club" was probably in the top 5 biggests hits of the new millenium thus far, peace.

ahh c'mon. Daz murdered the "in da club" beat with his amazing flow on "we don't give a fuck". Royce da 5'9'' also murdered the beat. 50 ain't got shit on either daz or royce. Fuck 50

Post by: Ras Kass' Toothpick on January 30, 2004, 03:19:46 PM
"In The Club" is probably the biggest hip-hop single ever.  It was more popular than "The Real Slim Shady".

Post by: Kill on January 30, 2004, 04:48:21 PM
I dunno, I never really liked the song that much, I don't hate 50, but I never considered the beat one of Dre's best and 50's verses & flow are ok, but not even his best either. It's a club banger, definitely, but since 2000 (or 2001 actually) there's been many club bangers I feel alot more

I'm not gonna say your a homo or anything jus that I disagree, it was 1 of the most popular 1 of the best club bangersbut to me that was the only time it was good.  I don't really like 50 and I don't hate himI'll be happy if he does something else like thatbut I won't say its the best song of the millenium or anything along those lines.

lmao at some of the people on here...i hate 50 cent and even i was and still do rock this shit...it had one of the best beats i've ever heard...i dont agree that none of the other rappers matched up to 50 on that beat. but 50's was still the best since it was the original version...

50 actually made a great song

*wakes up*
Where Am I? what did i just say?

It's a tuff club banger...But has anyone heard the Immortal Technique freestyle over that beat?  That shyt was fire, he ripped it for like 6 minutes..

i have that freestyle...its really not that special, its a good song but his flow was not even close to as on point as it is on his albums and his lyrics...well it was a freestyle so enough said.

Post by: Sikotic™ on January 30, 2004, 11:30:36 PM
Immortal Technique rapped over that beat? Damn, I gotta hear that.

It was prolly the tightest song beat-wise. I got so sick of it though like alot of other people. I guess we'll see in a couple of years when people aren't sick of it anymore.

well, if that's what u think,....to me a "best" song, or even a good one, is a track that in some way catches my atention lyriclly and rapwise with an apropriate production of course, if that's what it does for u, than good, Ima just say that imo it's best quallity was it's production, lyriclly it was nothing special, imo just an averrage overall song(yea with a dope beat),  nothing mo' , nothing less, and it's in the nature of averrage songs to loose replay value from being constantly played, shit....some people even start dismissing classic tracks (like Stan for example) after being played too fuckin much on MTV.

Post by: On The Edge of Insanity on January 31, 2004, 06:52:05 AM
Dope beat for the clubs, but the track got played out real quick cause 50 Cent was useless on this track. I hate his voice anyway, but on this track his whole flow, lyrics everything were awful, and to me completly ruined what could have been a dope track. Obviously I still dance to that shit when it comes on in the club but for anything outside of that it has no use.

Daz ripped that beat from the snippit of his version, and if only even a decent emcee had been on the track instead of 50 then I think it would have been a so much better track.

I can think of at least 100 songs I think are way better than in da club that have dropped since 2000.  I mean the beat is pretty dope, and I am biased by not liking 50, but goddamn that shit got played out so quik.  Speaking of Quik, Trouble is 100x as good as this song would luv to be.  Quik's Trouble beat rips Dre's in da club beat to shreds!

I've heard it all now.

Trouble beat, is far better than in da club.  Lots of quik beats are better than dre beats, and it doesn't take quik 2 years to make 4 beats.

honestly i haven't heard that many, but the fact that so many people have rapped over it must mean that it is a damn good beat...i mean, i've only heard 1 person rap over most critically acclaimend beats. the fact that most of us have heard more than TEN different versions of high profile artists rappin over the same beat should mean something. i've only heard quik and suga free rappin over 'trouble'

Trouble beat, is far better than in da club.  Lots of quik beats are better than dre beats, and it doesn't take quik 2 years to make 4 beats.

i don't think the trouble beat is even close to in da club. trouble is a dope beat, no doubt, but the only people who ever cared to rock it were quik and suga free - EVERYBODY loved that dre beat so much that EVERYBODY felt the need to rap over it. even mary j. blige rocked it. beyonce. bubba sparxxx. young buc. daz. rahzel. i heard arrested development rock over it at a concert this summer. royce. biggie on that rap phenomenon mixtape. even andre nickatina rocked it. even HARRISON FORD had that song poppin in his movie trailer for hollywood homicide.

regardless of how you feel about it, it's had a FAR bigger effect than 'trouble'......

and as for dre releasing 4 beats in 2 years, that's besides the point of this post. honestly, i could care less about at least half of dre beats. i just happen to think that 'in da club' is one of his better beats and probably his best beat of the millenium...

'hardest' is a figure of speech to me. i mean it's BANGIN

name a couple songs that bang harder - and nothin off the 'rip the jacker' album either because i don't think any of those are straight bangers - they make you think and are more lyrics based than any song dre produces.

It is way bigger than "Trouble". "Ice Ice Baby" is bigger than "Trouble", does that mean it's a better song? I'm not dissing your opinion, I'm just stating mine.
Title: Re:i still think 'in da club'.....
Post by: NobodyButMe on February 02, 2004, 01:33:08 PM
^^ we both know that 'in da club' is not going to go the same direction as 'ice ice baby'.

we have a consistently proven hitmaker (dre - makin hits for TWENTY YEARS) making another HUGE hit.

whereas 'ice ice baby' came from a gimmicky one-hit wonder - a nobody in terms of music. they're incomparable.

'trouble' is also by a consistently proven hitmaker, (quik) but sadly his hits have never and will never appeal to the masses like dres hits. quiks beats reach hip hop heads though, and i bet that every person that rocked the dre beat at least HEARD the quik beat, but didn't feel it was dope enough to rap over it.

i'm just sayin, the fact that so many people felt the need to do their own version of the song means it was a huge hit. it means they liked the song. it means that they liked it so much they had to spit over it. to me: trouble was/is dope, but not as dope as 'in da club'. to the rappers that spit over it: trouble was/is dope, but not as dope as 'in da club'.

I agree that "In Da Club" is the biggest hit, I just don't think it's the best song of the millennium. It appeals to the majority, but a lot of people still don't like it. I think it's all a matter of opinion when it comes to the best, though, there's no denying it's a huge song.

aight, here is something you and everyone else on this forum needs to understand.  When I make a post, I speak soley for myself, and my opinion.  I don't care if 98% of the world likes in da club better than trouble.  A forum is about dropping your opinon.  My opinion, is that trouble is a better song than in da club, and a better beat.  I brought up the length of time it takes to make beats because I feel that overall Quik is more talented than Dre, but that is a whole other argument.  Dre is great, I luv his beats no doubt, but I think quik overall is more talented.
