Agreed bro. I’ll have to check out your work, you have a link? I’ll checkout your UA-cam. Feel free to lookup mine on all music platforms/instagram too, fam. God bless!
50 mixtapes definitely were Classic and ground breaking and really got the streets but Lil Wayne Took it to another level making freestyles almost better then the people who actually made the songs and some would say they even forgot who made it and say it’s Wayne’s
My guy, that quote was absolutely elegant. "If 50 had captured lightning in a bottle, Wayne had, somehow, captured a tsunami in a sippy cup" lord that was good.
The pioneers before soundcloud rap was huge. Huge respect for what both of them did for mixtapes. If it weren’t for Wayne and 50, I may never have made my own first mixtape! Big love and respect for them and what they did for music in general 🤝
So Far Gone also changed a lot about how we view and judge mixtapes. After Drake dropped So Far Gone every mixtape an artist released basically had to be album quality.
Was Drake the first artist to do that? No doubt the most popular but I wonder if he was the first to use mostly original beats and songs for a mixtape.
man I can agree, but The Diplomats, 50, Fab Dj Drama especially had that going. Then before drake Kanye had original music mixtape that sounded like an album. You can also put the Finally Famous series by Big Sean. There's a lot out there before Drake
Jay-z even acknowledged Lil Wayne mixtape dominance on DOA track saying, "I might just send this to the mixtape weezy." He even gave him the utmost respect when he heard weezy's version of his own song 'show me what you got' jockinly saying that he was thinking of quitting rapping. 50 cent also got similar props from Eminem, jockingly saying that he wants to quit rapping after hearing 50's mixtape which got 50 signed to shady aftermath. Both rappers changed the hip-hop culture with their mixtapes, you cant help but admire that what they loved doing ultimately helped them break through to the mainstream. Thank you for giving them their flowers in this video 🌷🥀💐🌸
@@MarkHallOfFame 50 cent has mixtapes that are timeless and are like albums never hear many go back to lil Wayne’s mixtapes like how they go jack to 50s
I still remember going to datpiff every single day to check if any new tapes had dropped and from gunit and shit, hell that's the way we followed the whole game vs 50 beef and it was so hype
In Houston, in the South Side, DJ Screw & The Screwed Up Click were freestyling on other rapper’s instrumentals since the early & mid 90’s & selling them on tapes (Screw Tapes). It continued & eventually in the late 90’s Michael Watts & Swisha House in the north side followed the same formula. That’s how I remember mixtapes when I was young growing up in Houston.
I never paid for a Wayne mixtape. Back in the day, out on the west coast, we had to cop 50 on Ebay if we really wanted it. And a lot of people out here had the 50 mix tapes. That’s how iconic 50’s mixtapes were.
LITERALLY EVERYWHERE BRUH! My freshman year was 06-07 when I tell you when that Dedication 2 dropped that MF was playing on everyone phone and car that passed by and I'm in Houston smh that's when he started officially taking over in 06 but started coming in 04-05
I remember the first Lil Wayne mixtape I heard was The drought 4 and I could not believe what I was hearing, like wtf is this and why is it so hard...🔥🔥🔥🔥
I remember being in middle school/high school waiting on the droughts and dedications 🔥 🔥 🔥. I was introduced to Weezy mixtapes in 6th grade. Before i knew about mixtapes I just listened to whatever was on the radio. The droughts were the greatest thing I’d ever heard.
Both have the best mixtapes of all time with 50 he has 50 Cent Is The Future, God's Plan, And Guess Who's Back and Lil Wayne has The Drought Series And Dedication Saga so both are legendary mixtape makers yeah
ONCE AGAIN.... u are the culture... best hip hop blog so far. but i feel it would of been good to mention tyler the creators "Call me if you get lost" mixtape and how/wheres its going.... cause it won a grammy... and the significance of that too.
I remember when 50 had released GRODT and went to a place that had physical mixtapes. They had a 50 Cent greatest his mixtape and this not long after 21 Questions was released. I'm not the biggest fan of Wayne but no one can deny his mixtape game either. If Wayne hopped on a beat for his mixtape, people would forget who originally was on that.
@@ALexander-ue3kj Bruh i lived through it. Dipset started that trend when Cam'ron first got on Roc a fella and he tried to put dipset on so they came out with the dipset mixtape hosted by Dj kay slay then went on to come out with more volumes
People don’t like to mention 50 when it comes to mixtapes but literally Wayne followed the same format. However, Wayne changed it because his original music started to leak and next thing you know those songs became a mixtape then everyone wanted to make a mixtape with original music and make it sound like an album.
50 cent basically took the attention & spotlight from the DJs and made his own tapes, creating a new format of doing hit records over with new hooks concepts and content which was a huge departure from the regular ol' 16 or 32 bar freestyles, and used that platform to as promotional tool to create a buzz or later on to sale an album, which was used by cats like T.I. , Jeezy,Wayne,Drake and many more.
Wayne was literally remixing dudes hottest songs and making them his dude was on every station and every song had him featured dude run was crazy had to be there man was running the game
Spencer should narrate all videos. The other guy is the reason I've unsubscribed from this channel in the past; he puts me to sleep. Here I go again, subscribed. Great video!!
The mixtapes Wayne put out between the Carter 2 and the Carter 3 Especially the buzz The year prior to the carter 3 coming up all the mixtapes he came out with. Dedication 2 to Drought 3 And everything in between. Mixtape weezy was a beast And that's why to me hes number one in my book
@@SwagSurf-od3vx not the years I'm thinking of maybe around the carter 4 era. I'm saying strictly from the Dedication 2 to the Carter 3 and everything in between I would say is the best run of tracks that any rapper has put out ever. Dude was a machine
Yo I appreciate what you do and am a big fan of the channel, I just have to correct one think you said about 50s original mixtapes. Guess Whose Back is not a mixtape. That is a whole album with, like you said, new songs and leftovers from Power of the Dollar. Anyway that it's boss, keep serving that quality content 💪
Definitely 50 Cent was the greatest Mixtape quarterback and Wayne ran for the touchdown. Chamillionaire ran with their blueprint and made it his own thing.
It was odd to me that you'd mention Future and even Lil B for his prolific output but gloss over Gucci. Gucci was putting out more mixtapes than anyone knew what to do with, I'm pretty sure he has more than Weezy or Future, and he was dropping most of them from behind bars.
I was watching this and I definitely was like whoa there buddy Gucci might even have more mixtapes than Wayne and if he doesn't he definitely would have if it wasn't for him always getting locked up
I feel really blessed to have been born in '99 because I got to grow up with Eminem being my first favorite rapper, which then transitioned to being 50, watching his music videos all the time on TV and playing his video game, to seeing the rise of Lil Wayne being on every song you heard at the time, and Wayne has been and always will be my favorite since then. To this day, I still discover things that those 3 guys did back then that just amaze me to no end. I feel bad for all the kids that didn't get to see the magic of the 2000s like I did. Forever it will be them on my top 3, don't even need a top 5. May god continue to bless them and keep on this earth.
@@chreed5837 Literally as far back as I started to even develop memory. My brother was always bumpin that shit around me, and their music videos were always playing. The reason I knew they were my favorites was because their flows, the beats and videos would capture me the most. Ofcourse I didn't understand the lyrics, I wasn't like ole S S over here analyzing their whole catalog and impact and breaking down everything at just 3 years old. Naw I just would always watch what they were doing because every other artist didn't interest me as much. And those artists didn't have to be in their prime for them to be my first favs. They dropped some more heat even after their biggest albums.

50cent changed it and solidified it also its why wayne took the opportunity to follow suit without 50cent mixtapes wouldn't be what they was period remember wayne was an artist dropping albums already for years & were not connecting well in the streets!!!!!!! 50cent Is KING TO MIXTAPES that gave all other artists careers including wayne t.i & others also wayne gave his music for free while 50cent was selling his
Just look at it like this 50 Cent = Michael Jordan Lil Wayne = Kobe Bryant Thats just the perfect analogy. Someone who made the game impactful in a different way and someone who followed the blueprint and elevated it to another level leaving people in awe.
MIXTAPE 50" VS MIXTAPE WEEZY 50 Cent Is The Future vs Da Drought No Ceilings vs Kanan Tape No Mercy, No Fear vs Da Drought 3 Forever King vs Dedication 3 Guess Whos Back vs Dedication 2 Sorry For The Wait vs The Lost Tapes War Angel vs Dedication 4 Gods Plan vs Da Drought 2
Its crazy that these two Megastars have never really worked Together! Wayne works with everyone,50 has a damn Sixnine feature on his resume so wtf?? Imagine a 50 x Weezy 14 track Mixtape😭😭😭
Thats cuz 50 notoriously didnt work with alot of artists outside his camp during that time. Woulda been interesting to see those guys in their primes together
Heavy. Ps Ice Cube Jackin For Beats was the first time I heard an artist rhyme over another artists instrumentals. Pps Guess Who's Back is one of the best mixtaptes, ever. Wayne, Kanye, Dead Prez, , Cole, Kendrick, Ab Soul , Lupe and Jay Electronica and Big Krit, Drake also have classic mixtapes as well. Ppps "I might send this to the mix-tape Weezy" - Jay Z Pppps "Rap full of good guys, 50 Cent is the villain"- 50 Cent
What's the difference between mixtapes & albums?
I think the differences changed when Drake dropped So far gone
Mixtapes are basically like the warm up to an album. It's also how a lot of new artists build up their buzz and fan base
Today, nothing
A mixtape is what I'm dropping in 2078! Look out for it 😤🔥

Chamilitary Man! Mixtape Messiah, no liya spit and spirit like Dylan it's nuthin
, but hot fya.
Young Jeezy Trap Or Die mixtape was a moment
Wayne had the suffix that was pressure too
Yukmouth All out War Vol 1 2 and 3 we’re all dope
50 and Wayne on a mixtape together would have been so out of the blue and what we all needed back then or maybe now 🤷🏾♂️

Put some respect on Gucci Mane's name🤔
That's who Wayne got the "flooding the streets" concept from.
Gucci is unknown
G-unit Radio vs Dedication series
I'm so glad you compared Future's run to Lil Wayne's , I always tell my friends that Future is reminding me of Wayne
Just look at it like this
50 Cent = Michael Jordan
Lil Wayne = Kobe Bryant
Thats just the perfect analogy. Someone who made the game impactful in a different way and someone who followed the blueprint and elevated it to another level leaving people in awe.
Everybody has their personal preference. I'm no hip hop connoisseur but no mention of Chamillionaire/Koopa/ the mixtape messiah very underrated.
50cent is a legend. People just love to front on him.

Gucci Mane literally has 70 something mixtapes and some of the best mixtapes of all with writing on the wall, Gucci Sosa, The Movie
Its crazy that these two Megastars have never really worked Together!
Wayne works with everyone,50 has a damn Sixnine feature on his resume so wtf??
Imagine a 50 x Weezy 14 track Mixtape😭😭😭
Thats cuz 50 notoriously didnt work with alot of artists outside his camp during that time. Woulda been interesting to see those guys in their primes together
I remember I had a Chevy blazer with two mtx 12s and nothing but lil Wayne mixtapes back in 08. Good times
This video reminds of the Dj White Owl era.. RIP
50 is the KING the rest just follow
- Cause freestyles don't come with hooks he stated that
Just seen 50 Cent in the UK. Glad that guy survived those nine shots hes goated
He got new Music otw🥳
livemixtapes had me in the chokehold for a long time
True that 👑🔥
Heavy.
Ps Ice Cube Jackin For Beats was the first time I heard an artist rhyme over another artists instrumentals.
Pps Guess Who's Back is one of the best mixtaptes, ever. Wayne, Kanye, Dead Prez, , Cole, Kendrick, Ab Soul , Lupe and Jay Electronica and Big Krit, Drake also have classic mixtapes as well.
Ppps "I might send this to the mix-tape Weezy" - Jay Z
Pppps "Rap full of good guys, 50 Cent is the villain"- 50 Cent
