Thank you alot of people like to say 50 fell off after Curtis but nah the whole hip-hop game was changing and honestly 50 already knew this was going to happen 50 has a old interview on smack DVD talking about how the rap game is changing and how it will be in the future 50 basically predicted the future of Hip Hop.
@@hstone39 Facts these kids growing up have no idea how good the rap music was back in the day I'm only 25 so I'm kind of young my self but I was blessed to have parents that's listened to groups and rappers like Public Enemy, A Tribe Called Quest, Wu-Tang Clan, krs-1, Rakim,2 Pac, Ice Cube and many more this new rap shit is straight up 🗑
Kanye really has never changed. And he’s right when he says that his albums are like time capsules of each year and showing the change in culture and having one of the if not often the best albums of the year
There were so many good times. Wayne was still running the rap game and mixtape game, 50 was still entertaining and still is, Gangsta Grillz mixtapes were getting heavy rotation, Texas and Atlanta were repping hard for the south. Everyone was even still buying CDs. I even remember my Mom buying me Curtis for my birthday that year. Curtis was a Ok album but it had some bangers like Man Down, Moving On Up, and Curtis 187.

How do u not get that?? The crowd was ratchet. Better term? And all that does into actin ghetto/loud/fun etc same way they act at graduations. All the same thing. What’s the definition of ghetto do u use?
i am sorry but between jay eminem kanye and 50 i think we all know who was the odd man out and thus would not have lasting appeal...50 is very chill but his music does not compare to those legends..
I remember this like it was yesterday. 50 was saying he would stop recording music if Kanye outsold him and Kanye crushed him opening week lol. Good times.
@gil reynolds Jesus walks, all falls down, spaceship, family business, roses, addiction, vs. life of Pablo and ye stuff. They're completely different lyrically that's what people mean
Kanye started the end of gansta rap w/ The College Dropout but Graduation was the nail in the coffin. Kanye is one of the most influential artists in hip-hop (and music in general) like it or not.
That low key kinda messed up a lot of the rap game especially now, how most rappers are not held accountable for what they say or do, and the media gives them the “oh their young or that how they express themselves.” I miss the days when a rapper doesn’t like a another one they go and confront them or send clear shots at them on a track. Now they do subliminal disses too scared to say the rappers name or when they see them they play it ‘cool’
Biggest marketing campaign in hip hop history. Remember album sales were down in the music industry during this time with sites like lime wire pirating music for free. These 2 nearly broke a million first week. Crazy stuff!
facts, i remember this was around the time limewire was at its peak & it would give so many virus to a computer. YT was just got big around this time too
Big Island nahhh you trippin! 2000’s was the g-unit and dipset era. Arguably the 2 most influential movements in hip hop. Those weren’t just rap crews they were movements.
Exactly! People have layers, especially creatives. Society, and the people that follow societal rules cloesely, dont have the patience that; or they judge you for it. I think it comes off to them as unstable or erratic.
50 actually changed the album he was going to release. His original album was called I Can't Stay Away. Curtis only happened because Cam'ron dissed him calling him Curtis on a phone call and on a diss song. I Can't Stay Away might have been a classic album. Who knows.
Mr. Sir It's also a 50 cent line off of In DA Club. "And Banks told me go head switch the style up, and if they hate then let em hate & watch the money pile up...."
I don't even remember best buy being around back in 99-2000. It was for sure the new place whenever I found out about it but now they trash. They pulled all cd's for the most part.
I actually saw this when it aired on BET back in 2007. The title of Kanye's album graduation was a very fitting title for me personally because I just graduated highschool earlier in the summer of 2007.
Yeah. This was a very key moment in hip hop. If Curtis sold more in the first week. Then Rap, in my opinion would be in a better state. But fortunately. The 2020s are seeing mumble rappers fall off slowly
Y'all saw the video where the Ying Yang Twins recently revealed that Free was fired from the show because she recorded a verse for their remix to the whisper song?
Same arrogance but more self centered now the old Kanye wouldn’t have backed something that would hurt his ppl but be helpful to him. He was a little more of a man of the ppl and spoke more principled about right and wrong
This was huge. Still remember watching this live. People were checking numbers. 50 had an early lead, Kanye won at the end of the week. 50 blamed Interscope for not prioritising his project and marketing it correctly. It was also insinuated that Def Jam bought CDs. Plus Kanye had Jay Z campaigning for him. No one can doubt that from ‘03-‘05, 50 was a beast, much like L’il Wayne’s run a couple of years later.

playaflyJOE27 thats how i remember it too. i was in gr.7 in 04/05 & the yr after, hip hop started to get less gangsta & the fashion slowly started to get more clean cut.
It wasnt beef it was just a marketing strategy 50 implement because he felt interscope records weren't doing much to promote his album.He says it himself in his book on a chapter about competition.
I remember sitting in my cell 1997-2007 serving a 15 year bid and Rap City the basement w/Big Tigger & 106 Park w/Free & AJ was shows that we didn’t miss! I was young and these show helped me mentally leave leave bing for a few hours💯🔐🏚⭐️✌🏾💪🏾
Darrell Bell 3rd grade 07 for me, used to come home from school everyday waiting til 6pm for this to come on. The good days, miss this shit. Really used to keep fans engaged in the artists & their music.💯
I remember this like yesterday. Everyone expected Kanye to perform a upbeat song and he did “My big brother was Big’s brother. Used to be Dame’s and Big’s brother” 🎶 We were speechless. He demolished 50
I remember when this first aired like it was yesterday. Also Kanye was right. When I think of 2007, I remember Lil Wayne and T Pain and Graduation was Kanye’s best album.

My sophomore year in high school.. I watched this episode & was hooked.. This was a great moment for hip hop.. Both albums move units
Dear BET, please make a page dedicated entirely to 106 n Park. I think every episode should be available to stream. One of the best shows ever.
This show introduced me to
Nipsey Hussle
THE YEAR HIP HOP CHANGED .
Elijah Ashman hip hop changed two years before this.
playaflyJOE27 thats how i remember it too. i was in gr.7 in 04/05 & the yr after, hip hop started to get less gangsta & the fashion slowly started to get more clean cut.
Fif was the last real one left.
Coughs soulja boy
Then the following year 808s dropped and auto tune rap took over the game .Ye, Wayne etc
“50 told me go ahead and switch the style up and if they hate? Let me hate now watch the money pile up” - Kanye West
He remixed 50 saying lloyd banks saying that
Now throw your hands ✋ in the skyyyyyyy.
Man I miss 106 & Park!!! Good Times!!!
I never felt so old until i saw this again 😫😫😫 This moment was insane, damn how hiphop has changed
12:20 kanye is smart for sitting higher up..in body language he's tryna show dominance
He wasn't trying to sit up high, it's just that 50 was sitting too close to him. He even mentions to 50 how much more space there is on the couch.
@@kevinlayne8129 I see no one else got that LOL .
50 was trying his best to make him feel uncomfortable
yup, but Graduation was the better album
@@1980venom definitely. No doubt.
L graduation is a classic. 50 won the battle. Not the war. His album is not all that at all. Like who’s actually streaming his album 💀
Cartier Boi lmaoooo it wasn’t that bad it had a couple bangers
Cartier Boi everyone got tired of the gangster rap shit it got old, ye came with something fresh
Damn, back when CDs were a thing....
Ik right lol
I mean, they still are
50 cent always capitalized off of rap beef
It wasnt beef it was just a marketing strategy 50 implement because he felt interscope records weren't doing much to promote his album.He says it himself in his book on a chapter about competition.
Revisionist history. His whole strategy was always beef to sell records
Kanye defeating 50 cent here changed the course of hip-hop going forward.
Completely
For the worse
Nah it didn't.Kanye already had two platinum albums and 50 was on his way down.Lil Wayne and T.I were also popping and didn't do gansta rap.
@@cokelife5831 facts
@@triplebeans4159 Wayne didn't do gangsta music??? 😭😭😭😭☠️☠️☠️🙏🙏🙏 listen again bro
The fact that Terrence in referring to something "inside" of the album cover makes me feel OLD AS HELL 😩... and I'm 25 😂
Koala_Penguin Same and I’m 23
25
3:56 homeboy took a hard look....got caught too hahaha
50 Goated for this
HHAHA! Legit yeeeaahh! 😂
Never missed an episode of 106 back then.. countdown was always 🔥
I needed this throw back hip hop is so wack now these were the good days I feel like hip hop ain’t been the same since 2011
At this moment when Kanye won this battle.... it made it cool for drake to become the machine he did no cap
Drake don't produce, shut yo preachin ass up!
@@BackseatJuice that's not what he meant 😂 he's saying kanye made it cool to be sensitive in the art of rapping
Kanye made emo rap cool
Was this before his accident where he had to get mouth wireshut? His face don't look like he frowning all the time in this video.
@@vickiewarren2119 nah kanye's car crash was in 2003, this interview is from 2007
kanye sweater 🔥🔥🔥🔥
What type of sweater is that ?
I remember sitting in my cell 1997-2007 serving a 15 year bid and Rap City the basement w/Big Tigger & 106 Park w/Free & AJ was shows that we didn’t miss! I was young and these show helped me mentally leave leave bing for a few hours💯🔐🏚⭐️✌🏾💪🏾

Man late 2000s were so chill :(
Been looking for this footage for years
5th grade 07 memories !! I swear these was the days..but BET I still can’t get over the fact y’all canceled the show man..that shit made me cry lol
Darrell Bell 3rd grade 07 for me, used to come home from school everyday waiting til 6pm for this to come on. The good days, miss this shit. Really used to keep fans engaged in the artists & their music.💯
Simba Hell yeahh !! I swear this was life bro! Fuck social media lol I miss this right hereeee
11th grade LOL
Naseem Scott Hell yeahhhh
i was going into kindergarten that year
I remember this like yesterday. Everyone expected Kanye to perform a upbeat song and he did “My big brother was Big’s brother. Used to be Dame’s and Big’s brother” 🎶 We were speechless. He demolished 50
I remember back then it was a ritual for a album to come out on tuesdays
Who agrees 50cent is a legend? ?
My GOAT beside Thee GOAT Makaveli
Ehjjm no
I agrer
50 And Kanye are both legends
I witnessed this...both were iconic albums...it was great for hip-hop...
When kanye wears the iconic Gucci colors 15years before
Anyone else notice where Kanye looked when he sat on the back of the couch😂😂 12:17
I don’t blame em
😂😂😂👌
Lmaoo
I remember when this first aired like it was yesterday. Also Kanye was right. When I think of 2007, I remember Lil Wayne and T Pain and Graduation was Kanye’s best album.
Graduation Is The Best Hip-Hop Albums Of 2007
Period
Lies
Golden Facts... And ended up winning the grammy for best hiphop album but that's just an extra... It would've been the best hiphop period just listening by the ear test compared to other hiphop albums
Naw bro the cool
ton4 real who??
@@christianlaferrari i think the person is saying lupe fiasco album called " the cool "... It dropped that year as well
Kanye West and 50 Cent is one of my favorite rappers!!! ❤😊❤❤😊😊❤😊🎉🎉🎉
We gonna ignore Kanye tryna tell 50 to scoot over @11:45. 😂😂
Worrrrrrrrd...das exactly why he rose on the occasion
He said it on a sly too 😂
Lmao way 2 close bruh
Yeah ik right 50 always trying to sit close to somebody for some reason lol
lol intimidation tactics from the jump. 12:05 it gets too weird and uncomfortable by 12:20 he uses the question as the perfect segway & sits on the rail of the couch 😂😂😂 invading kanye space much Fofty? " what ye was really thinking at that moment "get tf out my face bruh"
When hip hop dress code was on point
Robbz Cordova i can't stress this enough😂
Y’all blind
@@ethereal6279 what's better than your favorite rapper wearing dresses and purses you are a bunch of clowns probably gay to
Jaded. True i hope that never comes back
@@ki11atj49 nothing was cool about being 5,9 150 wearing 5xl T's and jeans that look like parachute pants & name one popular rapper today that wears dresses or a purse that's all y'all dumbass old head say when it ain't even true
