Welcome to the latest Hammer Time Podcast. This episode is me and Lin talking to you. Yeah, hello everyone.
We are finally going to talk about the topic of this episode, which is about the Netherlands. I also posted a newsletter a few days ago, and I was surprised. Actually, I just want everyone to see the article first and listen to some music related to Dungeon Family before listening to the show. If you listen to this program, it may be easier to get started.
I don't know if you guys have listened to it or read the article. But I was so touched by the article. I've been touched by the article recently. The article is full of information.
Why did we talk about Dungeon Family and Atlanta? Before the broadcast, we talked about the main topics of the program, such as Houston, Cash Money, and Memphis.
I've always wanted to talk about Atlanta, but Lin had a concern that it was hard to say. Because the Atlanta we know now is not easy to talk about. You know? It's hard to say. It's mainly a piece of cake. And then...
You can't say that they don't have any connection at all. Of course, they have a lot of connections. But mainly, they have too many talents. I think the connection is not very big. Especially when we talk about Atlanta, of course, it's the fair rap capital. There is this kind of name. We are now familiar with the style of Atlanta.
and what we want to talk about are too scattered. It's not a very obvious fixed style. Compared to other cities,

Organized noise

I listened to "Soul Food" a few days ago, and it's a new work of art. I think we have to talk about it. Otherwise, I can't get over it. I think we have to talk about this album when we talk about Soul Food.
And when I was listening to all the Orcas' albums during my classes, it felt different from before. You'll find out why some of their albums are so classic and awesome. It's because every time you listen to them, you feel different. Yes, that's why it's so special. This is very rare. And this time, Lin has made a good article for us.
I like this family. I have to say hello to everyone. I am relatively close to the level of the brain. So many things may be actually not as good as the standard. But I am a fan. So I have to say it to everyone first. There are more content. So I just listed it. Actually, I just listed it in the age. I'm afraid I'll forget it.
人太多了就是这样
Right, especially since the 1990s to the 1970s and then to the 2010s, there have been too many changes. It's really hard to tell.
It's okay, let's just share it. We're not saying what to do. What to do? I told you last night, after drinking, I was listening to Soul Food again. I was so touched. I cried in the middle of the night. I had a goal for me. I said I had to do this program. In the Chinese Internet world, I'm talking about the best music of Dungeon Family and Atlanta. This is my goal. But I may not be able to achieve it.
It's not that difficult now. No one has mentioned it before. I don't know. They said it's not as good as we thought. We said it before we started recording. It's okay. We can talk about the early Atlanta music scene. This is according to the timeline of Lao Lin.
Yes, Atlanta. In the late 80s and early 90s, they didn't have a very obvious style. Some people were more like Miami. Miami-based, 2Life Crew. The local people were more like Tech Team.
uh
So it's a bit different, but it's good. It's very melodic. And then there's something else, like "Y'all So Stupid". It's a bit more traditional, but it's also a bit like Frasade or De La Soul. There are some more spiritual things. There are also some combinations of HW or Ghetto Boys, like "Hard Boys". But it's very spiritual.
The more popular ones are the familiar ones like SoSoDeath and LaFace. LaFace was actually based on R&B in the early days. Because it was Babyface and L.A.Rid. They were together, so it was LaFace. Of course, they are also the same as the people we talked about today, like Outkast and Goodymob.
uh
Actually, it's very important because before it, Atlanta didn't have a style that could have a huge influence in the national arena.
But the "Dungeon Family" and the "Hood" from the 00s are different. They are too different. They have a more "flat" style. So they are very unique. But they are very influential. So that's the situation. Was "So So Death" established so early?
Like Chris Cross, he was quite young back then. Maybe 1993. But I think that when Sotheby's was founded, it was a trend. Many people he was looking for were children, starting from childhood.
SoSodev is also the earliest "student star" we mentioned earlier. It's a brand that started early. Yes, because the path is actually the path of the Black People's Pop Music. Because the early 90s was popular with the same star. And the same star is always a bit of a market. It's a bit like the idea of "Chunqiao Laodiezi".
But it's also a local thing in Atlanta.
We also had a fight with the old pervert like Jermaine before. He asked the kids to help him because kids are easy to be spoiled. At that time, in the Asian and South Asian countries, the market was still more enthusiastic about letting teenagers participate in various talent shows. Then they started to do some more popular things, hoping to have some influence in the more large-scale pop music market.
I was not interested in the early days of Soso Dive. Because as an adult, I was not interested in the music of Chris Cross. His voice made me not interested in it.
Yes, it's impossible to listen to it as a music video, because I think it's too childish. The sound of that child is not well developed. It's like a child song. But you said you made it with so many people, which makes me feel very strange. Yes, in fact, these things were quite widespread back then. Because many domestic hip-hop celebrities in the early days of China may have really been in contact with Chris Cross.
um

The style of the early 90s and the early 80s, there is no fixed style. It has a very obvious style of city characteristics. It can be like Memphis or Houston. It has a different style. Yes, they mainly went to the front. But there is nothing wrong with it. It's just that it's just the case.
So you see, combined with the style of Atlanta, we have formed a fixed image. It's not easy to say. Yes, so at that time, there was a DJ Tom who produced for TI. He is actually from this era. He produced some things for MC Shady.
MC Shady was also signed by the company of Luke. So they are very close to Miami. I don't know why. But it's not that close. Anyway, there is no situation. I haven't been there, so I'm not very worried. I found that TI seems to be one of the members of Parental Advisory. It's a community big brother.
Right. Next, we're going to talk about the most important one. Talking about Dungeon Family, we have to talk about TLC. The earliest works of the early underground family, I listed them as the first one to be released in 1992. The first one is a TLC's... It was a popular song at the time. "What About Your Friends", a remix. Right. There's also a "Sick Ride" remix.
Yes, it is... You say. I want to say Home Alone. I really haven't seen it. Is it the second part of Little Ghost Master? Little Ghost Master, yes. I haven't seen the second part. I watched the first part when I was a kid. So I don't know that there is such a song in the second part. I don't have any impression either. To be honest, I definitely don't have any impression in the movie. I watched the movie when I was too young.
Right. But anyway, back then, they were like this kind of Christmas songs, or something like that, like a film or a TV series. Original sound is also a very popular thing, especially in the 90s. All kinds of things. So this should be the first time OutKast appeared. No, it's been 92 years. 92 years, you mean Sleigh Ride?
um
The Art of Organizing the Noise
Netflix produced it. But now it's not available on Netflix. The official has already cancelled this documentary. I don't know why. So this film is very hard to find. How can I find it?
After Rick Wade died, someone asked on Twitter, "How can we still see this documentary now?" This is a problem of the media era. You really don't know when he was officially removed. Then many people are asking about this thing, there is no way to see it. Then one person just forwarded a video on Twitter and posted it as a video. It's very hard to see, you know?
I've found the resources to finish reading it.
I watched it when it was released. I watched it. I watched it. I watched it. I watched it. I watched it. I watched it. I watched it. I watched it. I watched it. I watched it. I watched it. I watched it. I watched it. I watched it. I watched it. I watched it. I watched it. I watched it. I watched it. I watched it. I watched it. I watched it. I watched it. I watched it. I watched it.

I watched it.
In the documentary, the basement is very small. It's only a few square meters. There are more than ten people in a pile. They are living there every day. Except for the bathroom, they eat, sleep, make music, and create. They are all there. It's like a paradise. A happy paradise.
And Rico Wade and Organized Noise, one of the three members, Sleepy Brown, they were also the local young talent competition in Atlanta. I only found out about them later. I shared it with you the other day. Yeah, I didn't know either. I didn't expect it, right? They didn't even dare to say it. Yeah, don't you think it's embarrassing? I'm not even sure if I should say it. It's funny.
I should say, look at Rick Waits. He's really handsome when he was young. He has a good look. Yeah, and he has a very good personality. Although I really don't understand his accent. I really...
But the accent of Atlanta is really hard to understand. He is in that documentary. You said that the documentary on Twitter was posted without subtitles. You have to understand what he said. Especially Rick Way's speaking style is really hard to understand. The eldest brother is still very charismatic. Yes, this person is absolutely charismatic. More charismatic and musical. It's also a big brother whose thoughts can be seen.
To be honest, if you don't pay much attention to this organization, you might not know it. Because it has never been before. So it's very important. The style of Wudang is the feeling that Razor has. It's a whole set of... Its aesthetic is...
He has a very clear aesthetic, so he's a very good artist. Sleepy Brown is a little more advanced because he can sing. Many of his songs were sung by him. So he's a little more... He might have a higher exposure. There's another guy called Murray. Murray. Murray, right. I don't know why that guy is the most mysterious. He doesn't come out much.
Yeah, so these three big guys are the main characters. But according to their categories, Ray has his own aesthetic direction in many BEEF productions. Yes, definitely. They can be together for more than 20 years. It must be that the pace is the same in all aspects. Right. And Sleepy Brown's dad is a
Yeah.
And then, because at the beginning, Rick Wade built his own basement and then he gathered a bunch of people, and then everyone, due to the same interests and ideas, gathered together to make music, and then this team grew slowly. At the beginning, it was called Dungeon Family. And then, some historical reviews about Dungeon Family's more important events can actually be found in that documentary. And then we will probably talk about
Why is Dungeon Family so unique? I think the first thing to mention is what Lin said before, the kind of style that was quite common in the Asian and Latin America at that time. And then Dungeon Family's own unique aesthetic. I think the first thing is that these members themselves are very fond of soul music, funk music, and band music.
And the idea they created was actually created by the real musicians who were in their prime. And you can clearly hear that they like to use real instruments in their music. That's right. This is a big feature. And do you have any additional features for their unique styles?
More Bounce to the Ones
Atomic Dog. This kind of rhythm is very catchy. And it has a very exaggerated bass. But the southern style, especially... Look at Houston. Houston is relatively close to the West Coast. But it uses more guitar like Oregon. The Dungeon Gang in Atlanta uses a lot of guitar and Oregon.
But the entire classical design, including the sound choice of the bass, is actually different from the style of Xihai'an and Xiuyun. It's a little more gentle. I don't know how to describe it. It doesn't feel that sharp.
嗯,所以说的时候对你说唱的那种节奏感也带来的听感不一样。 对,你就没办法照着像那种西海岸那种说唱的那种 cadence 来说。 对,它不是一个 beat 推着你,你在 beat 上面那么走的那种,它是一个...
It's slow and has a different flow. This is the first flow of the album in 1994. It's very unique.
没错没错 奥特卡斯第一张是他们当时的我觉得风格的一个早期风格一个最好的体现吧 虽然之前那个 PA 就 Parental Advisory 他们 93 年出过一张专辑 也是 Organized Noise 制作的
But you may think that the album is similar to Death Effects. Yes, we have to talk about this first. The album "Parental Advisory" by Ghetto Street Funk was the first album produced by Organized Noise in 1993.
Yeah, I have to mention it. Although this group is generally considered to be a dancing family, they seem to be a little further away. That's my feeling. Yes, you are listening to this style now, it's actually not the same. I listened to it yesterday, it has a lot of styles that are a bit close to the New York style. It's like a dance track. Yes, it's very New York underground.

Outro Music
Organized Noise was only made for PA. Then PA released many albums. It has nothing to do with Organized Noise. It has nothing to do with it. These three people developed their own.

得提一下这个团体,因为确实也是很早比较重要啊。 嗯,非常重要。 但是说回来就是 Outcaste 可能第一张是当阵早期风格一个最集中的体现吧。 就是很南方,但是他们俩可能说的还是那种有点什么拉皮条那种事儿。 对。 但是给人的感觉不太一样,就是有点顽皮,有点比较年轻。
以那个推荐的那个写 SOFU 的那个文章里 我记得好像管他们这个叫什么 Baby Player Music 对 Baby Polar 挺贴切的 对 就是挺逗的 那种感觉 就是但是特别南方其实就是 他们当时喜欢的这种感觉 就是管他们叫 country 特别的 country 是吧 就是特别的南方 特别的油渣那种感觉 他们就是
You are so good at describing the song. Yes, it's very catchy. It's very catchy. It's that kind of song. But many of them are also influenced by P-Funk. For example, the Parliament by George Clinton and Funkadaddy. I think Funkadaddy is the main one. For example, they have a song called Funky Ride. It's a song sung by six of them. It's a special P-Funk.
还有什么他们把一堆词连着拼的那种做法,可能都是来源于皮方。
The early days, they knew each other very well. T-Boz from TLC. What was it at that time? Dungeon Family, the producers, and L.A. Reid met. Dungeon Family knew each other first. First, T-Boz introduced them. Then they got in touch with L.A. Reid. It was also because of L.A. Reid's wife.
He is also an R&B singer. Anyway, he introduced himself to me. I remember that at first,
you think Outcast doesn't have much market influence, and they don't sign it. Because it feels like it's not that strong. At that time, you have to be particularly, you say it's a little bit ugly now, maybe you need to fulfill a kind of a little bit of a general image. You can easily get popular. Outcast, in fact, it's not as strong as it is now. I'm a big brother of the gang now.
Or I'm just a kid now. He's not. So it's... First of all, their image, you don't know how to promote it in the black community. Yes, that's right. Don't talk about the bigger popular range. Because in the popular range, you are another set of methods to package and promote. First of all, in the black community, they feel too different. Yes, so it's called Outcast. It's not really the other type of other type, right? It's just...

I didn't want to sign the song, so I thought it was too different. But there is a very important single called "Player's Ball". This single was in a Christmas music collection by L.A. Raid.

In the Christmas harmony But his music is very, very street life things He and his son are singing inside In the ghetto Christmas is not the kind of joy everyone wants to laugh at Everyone's happy holiday This kind of a sweet and happy atmosphere Because in the ghetto The kind of life we are facing is very poor Then our material is very scarce He sang this lyrics very clearly It's just that you're in the ghetto
过圣诞节的话,我们挂那个袜子里面都是没有礼物的,什么类似于这种词啊。 这种非常现实的描写,对于当时那种在整个很快乐的那种气氛里面,它非常不一样。 而且呢,就由于它的这个音乐本身又很 funk,唱的东西又非常的拉皮条,皮条课,players ball 嘛,players ball,我们之前在讲皮条课的时候说过了,一年一度的皮条课盛会,你知道吗?
它最开始你现在听到的这个歌词都不是原始的歌词,现在歌词是什么? 叫做是什么 When the player's ball is happening all day every day. 然后当时最原始的歌词是 When the player's ball is happening on Christmas day. 它讲的是皮条克盛会发生在圣诞节这一天,然后歌词里边讲的是非常非常真实的这种 ghetto 里的生活。
This song immediately became a hot topic when it was released. And now you listen to it, it's really good. Yes, it's a good song. There is a remix of this song, which is also very good. I put the playlist as the remix. This is a good song to listen to. All the hostess I'm talking about a black man in heaven here You know what I'm saying? Yeah

It's a bit of a bloody, but it's a bit of a strong feeling from the street. It's so charming. It's so good. It's a big hit. This song is a big hit. And then the director of this song's music video is Puff Daddy.
I've already blackmailed him. Especially after the news of his sexual assault and abuse this year. It really made me angry. But Puff Daddy was such an influential person at that time. For a young man who just debuted for Yakuza, directing a music video is really very different.
The feature of this album is that the song is very long. It feels like these people have to play the life of the book. I remember there were two songs. The one with the hat was a song of six or seven minutes. Everyone sang a book. That's the situation. But this album sold well later. It's also for them.

And then Lao Lin described them in 1994 as showing the funky style of the southern accent. I think your description is also very wonderful. It's very country, but it's a bit of a gentleman, a bit of a naughty feeling. You really described the word accent very accurately. Cool, I love to eat fried chicken. That's the image.
亚特兰在后来发展那么好之前,其实给人的印象就是特别乡村,很亢锤的这种。 整个南方都很亢锤,就是在当时的视角下吧。 可能除了 Scarface,因为 Scarface 是大多数纽约 rapper 的前辈,他们不敢瞧不上 Scarface。 但是上线的他们 UGK 啊,我看全是亢锤。 对。 所以这样。
The poet and the pimp, intellectual yet street. He has a thinking temperament, but he is also very street-oriented. He is a critic of the commentaries, but he also achieved success in the business.
But I think when he talks about Poet and the Pimp, he might... Is Andre a poet? Is Big Boy a pigtail? I don't know how he defines it. But I think both of them have this kind of aura. Yes, that's right. Actually, they can't... Especially Andre and Big Boy are not...
Right.
This is probably a turning point in their career. They say so in the documentary. It's a blessing, but also a curse. Many companies want them to repeat this kind of success.
But it's not like they want to copy the original song. So it's a double-edged sword. He also mentioned the process of creating this song in the documentary. At that time, they still used their own creative method. There was a bass player.
They use musicians to play instruments. Maybe they play a melody in the high notes. I think this kind of creative method is very old-fashioned. It's the way of creating in the high notes, using instruments. A group of people, right. Maybe it's a group of people jamming. Then they jam to this part. Then they take it out and develop it. In fact, many of them are like this. It's this. A lot of people.
That's how the song was created. You might say, "I have a group of friends who are jamming a song that we all like very much." Then slowly everyone will discover some very good ones. "Hey, this one is not bad." Then it develops into a song. Many people create like this. Yes. But this song is... Because it's their very unique, very muddy, funky guitar style.

TLC was also popular after Crazy Sexy Cool was released. Because their first album... Yes, the first album didn't have much influence. But it had some influence. But it couldn't be compared to the second album. The second album had too many famous songs. Maybe half of them were famous songs. Yes. It's the most important song in TLC's career. Yes.
We mentioned the album released by Outcast in 1994. Is Source Award the best year for this album? It seems to be the best year for the new album. Yes, the best year for the new album. Yes, I think Get Out also won an award. I don't remember it. It's too detailed. If you are interested, you can check it out. But I have an impression that Outcast is the best new album.
This is a story that is always used to talk about in the history of rap. Because this historical event is so famous. In 1995, on the territory of New York, the Source Awards were held. What everyone expected to see was the situation of the East-West Coast Struggle.
At that time, no one would take Atlanta as a matter of fact. No one knew who Alcat was. Alcat got the best new member. When Big Boy and Andre were receiving awards, they were still joking around. Andre said his most famous line. It still rings a bell today. Our guys have something to say. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, because they were fired next week. Yeah.

That's what I want to say.
It's still very classic. In the situation at that time, Andre said such a sentence, it has been impressive until now. This sentence is also quite awesome. Young and vigorous, and he didn't say that he scolded someone or something. I'm just saying, I have something to say. It fits their character very well. The response to this sentence is actually very awesome. Yes, it's good.
I like this one. I'm a bit of a brainless person. Society of Soul is actually the three people who organized the noise.
And Big Roop, who is a spiritual brother in their group. He will read a poem in some of their albums. Or he will say something spiritual in the middle. And there is a big sister I forgot to call. The name of that big sister is hard to find. Yes, I forgot to call her. Sorry. But the big sister didn't appear in the video.
导致就是不太熟。 但是他们就是这个 Society of Soul 基本就是一个唱的一个风格。 他也不能说是 R&B, 你也不能说是 New Soul, 但是他是一个植根于 70 年代灵魂乐的 特别明显的那么一个专辑。
The music is really good. I like the music in all the Organized Noise albums. But is the song that good? I don't think so. But the style is unique. Some parts of this album are recorded in Curtis Mayfield's studio. Right.
挺不一样的,我觉得好像找不着什么跟这个组合像的。 而且他们那个审美也就是有点神秘啊, 有点封面是一个人在那泡温泉吧,泡澡在河里。 也不一定是温泉。 这是河吗? 这是河沟子里泡澡。 对,反正就是审美很独特。 我觉得粉丝值得一听。 但确实算不算那么好了吧。
I know you don't drink, but tonight is special. First I'll take you, wrap my arms around you. When I look into your, I love you too. Then I'll show you, how deep my love runs for you. No one can do it better. It's special, but I'm glad someone to relax. Cause I know what you've been going through. So take my hand, da da da da.
Don't be afraid of how you feel, baby.
Then the lights. Woo! And our passion take us through. Girl, I adore you. Baby, let me show you how much I really love you. But before we start the night, let's do this right. First I'll take you. Wrap my arms around. Look into your love, you too. Then I'll show you.
The next album we are going to talk about is Soul Food. How can I say Soul Food? I really don't know how to say it. When I listen to Soul Food recently, I really think this album can be listened ten times.
I've heard this album a long time ago. I think I've heard it since the 30s or 40s. But I really understand what they want to say. It's all about 10 years later. Especially Soulful. A lot of things you may not understand when you're young. But even though they were young.
But because the background of life and culture are different, it takes a certain amount of time. Yes, why is this album worth listening to tenfold? When I first heard of Goodie Mob and this album, I was already very late. When this album became a classic in the history of rap, I knew this album was awesome. It's from Atlanta,
This group is called Goodie Mom. They are members of the underground family. You have such a premise that has a position. You already have such a feeling of being in the lead. When you go to feel the album,
When you first start to play the guitar, it's an experience. Then when you listen to it slowly, as you listen to the song, you can slowly identify some unique styles and some different things in the aesthetic. You will feel that this album, as Lao Lin said many times before, it has a very simple approach. You later found that it is particularly precise.
It's that kind of good, that kind of exquisite, that is, a little more is not enough. It's all about it. Yes, yes, yes, right. Then it sounds so comfortable. That kind of aesthetic style
It left a deep impression on you. At this time, you will slowly feel that this is the unique aesthetic style of Organized Noise. This is the unique style of Goodie Moms. There is another stage. In recent years, when you gradually understand more about the history of Atlanta,
-
The war against drugs, the police's war against drugs, the life of the streets in Atlanta, and the history of the 1996 Olympic Games, the elimination of the black people. I even learned later that in the late 80s and early 90s, the Atlanta child murder case was a very important historical background.
- -
背景到底发生了什么,没有本地人告诉你,你光看这些歌词,你不知道他在说什么。 对对对,他本地意义性非常强。 本地性实在是太强了,然后你如果说真正的想去,有兴趣去了解这个历史,你了解每一个歌词里面提到的人名,他具体是谁,他曾经干了些什么事,他对亚特兰大当时的这个社会产生了哪些影响,你就会发现这些人说的那种方式实在是太牛逼了。
I think if this album is well-written, I can say it for three hours from the first to the last song. Yes, but that's too much. Because it's worth analyzing. This kind of analysis is not about how we must learn it as a research object. It's about the amount of information it contains. It's about the style of production and aesthetic.
And the way these members speak, their personal charm, and the influence of the music on the future of Goodie Mop is so important. Every time you listen to it, you will feel deeper. Yes, it's true. There are many things that you can understand from the beginning. But when you know that it has some cultural background, you will feel that it is indeed different.
And as the life goes on, I personally haven't read the Bible before. After I understand the Bible, it's a completely different feeling. That's right. You told me that after understanding the Bible, listening to this album, they express it very spiritually, and it makes you feel completely different. I want to say that too.
spiritual
I haven't found the second one in the rap field. Yes, there is no album like this. There was a description of Lao Lin before, he was very good. You say it again, I have to let you say it again.
I forgot which one to describe. I don't know what you mean. He didn't say you are a pride of a winning system, but a humble survivor. I have to give you a reward. Oh, this one. That's right. He didn't say that kind of proud feeling. It's like I won. I told you that we can win.
He was completely a survivor after all these things he went through. He was very humble. They didn't go to war, but they were actually fighting. I've always felt that way. They were holding on to their own...
心灵上 我不能说是心灵上的净土了 这么说太中文了 但是就是说 它是保守一个 它的心灵上的这么一个东西 是这种感觉 所以还是挺不一样的 真的挺不一样的 对 包括它就像你说的 它专辑封面 就是他们一堆人在那儿 犯钱祷告嘛
And then the opening of his album, I personally think it's one of the most classic opening songs in the history of hip-hop. It's a free song by CeeLo.
It was so amazing. And then after the song was finished, the thought process of the guys who entered the studio were all very good. They brought you directly to such an environment in Atlanta. So it's really different. Yes, I think this album is like Atlanta.
独属于亚特兰大黑人街头的一部纪录片。 就是由于它本身,它这个地理位置, 南方嘛,它本身其实虽然你就说一直到现在这个年代, 那 90 年代它其实还是就是有点, 怎么说呢,就是种族隔离依然因果不散的这么一个时期。 对,对,南方嘛。 然后还有南方福音音乐的这种历史传统在。 嗯。
The first song, "Free", gives you the feeling of Negro Soul, Negro Spiritual, the feeling of the music of the Negro. He prayed in this atmosphere. He said, you know, at that time, those members were not old, they had a deep sense. They were actually influenced by their own life and culture. They naturally made such a sound. Yes.
And then, about your freedom, about your life situation, this description is very, very simple, but it immediately pulls you into the mood of the south. Yes, that's right. But next, "Thought Process", the beginning of this song, besides "Goodie Mob", there is also "Our Cast", right? Yes, yes. The amount of information in this song is shocking.
It can tell you a story that only exists in the streets of Atlanta with a very simple sentence. This is too local. If you don't look carefully, if you don't think carefully, the meaning and social background behind each sentence is hard to understand. It has such a shocking beginning.
frustrated irritated
I think the lyrics are too hard to describe. It's really hard to describe. This is really conscious. After listening to this, I think you're listening to a lot of so-called conscious now. There's no weight at all. The weight of what they express in this album is too low.
And you also said that the infectivity is different. They don't say I want to be in a very clear attitude. I want to teach you. Yes, I want to have a very anti-war attitude. I resist a system system of injustice. I resist the white superior. Although we have been living in this shadow, they don't have this kind of very straightforward expression. This is what I think is very rare for young people.
Young people are expressing political opinions, they are clearly shouting slogans. But in the "Goodie Mob", they are very modest. This kind of modesty is not the kind of modesty that I want to hide. You need to have a real sense of your own in the local life, in the long history behind it. This is very, very difficult.
它是一种经历吧,我觉得。 和那种道理还是挺不一样的。 太好了,我就只能不断地重复了,简直太好了。 没错,然后这张还提出了一个词,30 South,就是应该是这张第一个提出来的吧。
虽然这个歌主要是 Big Boy 和 Cool Breeze 主要是 Cool Breeze 和 Big Boy 他们俩儿的歌 Cool Breeze 给你一顿 Breakdown 那个 毒品 毒品的事儿
What you know about the Dirty South? The creator of the word "Dirty South" is Cool Breeze. The beat of this song is so dope. It's my first time listening to this song. I was like, "Wow, how dare this song make this kind of beat?" It's just a bass. And the drum also doesn't have many sounds. But those few sounds are all very important.
This is the exact same thing I said earlier. You said that if you add one more point, it's not right. If you add less, it's not right. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount. It's just the right amount.
I want to talk about the background of the album. Why did I say that? You have to know a lot about the background of the city and the social issues of Atlanta. After that, you will have a deeper feeling about it. Except for what I just mentioned, for example, Red Dog. Red Dog is actually about the drug war at that time.
uh
Or some kind of seduction or something like that. Of course we know that to fight drug crimes, you use this kind of violent police enforcement means. It also happened in the south. It's actually this kind of violent enforcement. Although its original intention and purpose is good, it is to fight drug crimes. But the consequences it often brings are more serious.
Bill Clinton. You just said
I was shocked when I heard that. President Bill Clinton later apologized for the drug war. He established a lot of violence and law enforcement. This means to strengthen police force. In fact, it brings more serious consequences for the black community.
然后这些东西其实都是在你后来不断的学习当中,你才会意识到的这些问题。 关于毒品战争以及毒品战争怎么它过去的这个对黑人街区这个历史的影响,我们也没办法在这个节目里面跟大家以另外一种角度分析的太深刻,这个就是还得靠...
自己主动去了解,主动去学习。 但是呢,我真的是觉得就是这些 Goodie Mob 还有就是地窖的这些成员, 在讲述这些很深刻的历史问题的时候, 给人的那种震撼和他们自己很深刻的这种认识, 非常非常的牛逼。 确实是,而且他们其实当时都挺年轻的, 咱也不知道这是一个……
什么情况,差 20,可能 20 出头。 我就觉得像,就是这种,为什么我们总是很惊讶,就是这么年轻,
They are so young and they have such a deep understanding of these issues. This is because we have completely different cultural backgrounds and living environments. For them, even if you think about it, if you push forward, these people in their teens, they have actually been in the shadow of the social problems of child murder cases. They have been living in
or in such an environment of white people. Because the whole album, including the later interview, these members also clearly mentioned that the confederacy flag was still standing at the door of the Congress building. These children who grew up in the south, all these historical backgrounds, they followed them from birth.
So these things are really hard to understand in our environment. But only when they are slowly experienced and deeply understood, they can understand how different their thoughts on these social issues were. And I also think that CeeLo Green's dad seems to be a pastor. His dad is a priest.
很多祷告的词都是他说的嘛,说得非常心灵,很祷告。 挺心灵的,挺心灵的,对,希露好像当时还不到二十岁, 虽然长得特别老。
But they are, after all, many people will die at the age of ten. So the growth environment is completely different from ours. And these members are very active in participating in this kind of social movement. The article I wrote for you by Rodney Carmichael, before the album was released, it was already determined that when it was released,
These people went to the D.C. parade. I only found out about it later. It was the D.C. organization of Nation of Islam's leader. It was a black protest about the right to vote. Later, the number of people increased. So it was called the Million Parade. One Million Man. All these historical backgrounds must be combined with your understanding of it.
If I were to leave this background, this album would be a shock. It would be a lot less heavy. Why have I been emphasizing this background recently? Carmichael's article brings me a lot of historical background and information. When I feel it again, my shock is too hard to describe.
-
It's very reliable, but the amount of information is very large. I think it's a very good one. If you are interested in understanding, I think this may be the best news. And this video came from... When you sent it to me, I watched a part at first. When I looked down later, I found that I had actually seen it before.
Especially when I saw the Basta Rhymes, I only knew that I had read this article before. So he is a very good person. And I know Ronnie Carmichael, he was already in NPR when he was hired.
One of my favorite podcasts is about crime and music by American black people. It's called Louder Than A Riot. The core creator is Ronnie Carmichael. You'll also hear him on other NPR shows. Like Code Switch.
He wrote a lot of articles about music and social comments. But before he became a member of NPR, he was the editor-in-chief of a local media in Atlanta, Creative Loafing.
嗯
He wrote a big topic on the 20th anniversary of the launch of Zyconia. He talked about the history of the outcast. All these things must be written by local people with local background.
So when you realize that you can see the origin of the people who wrote the music in Atlanta, you will find that local people and their cultural comments are very important.
地教学者第一人 老林说的就是 确实是 很多事真的就是说 你没在那个地儿待过 你就是不知道 对 所以这个没办法 是这样 还有我想说的 我特别喜欢的 这张专辑里边 几乎所有的歌 我都特别想说 但是你刚才既然提到了 Cell Therapy 也得说一下这个大名曲 对
This song mainly shows the members of the group and talks about some topics with conspiracy theories. Of course, it is also the reaction of the social status that they experienced. Because it will make people very uneasy. And then the beat is definitely the most classic, I think. I can't say the most classic, the beat is very classic.
然后这几个大哥都不错,但是我最喜欢的可能还是 C-Lo 那段。 C-Lo 我觉得很多时候在这张专辑里确实就比较突出了,因为他嗓子就比较特殊,这就是那种连说带唱的。 对,他还会唱的,唱的旋律还挺动人的呢。 对对对,他这个歌就讲他们家搬到了一个 gated community,就是那种一个院里那种有门禁的那种小区。
Who's that peeking in my window? Pow, pow.
然后加上前面那段别的,这个 B 就是怎么说,就是在说唱历史当中为数不多的那几个神来之笔,就是你觉得这玩意儿都不知道怎么做出来的,说当时怎么想的呀能做出来这个歌。 是,真是不知道怎么想的。 对,这里边有很多,我觉得 Goodie Mop 前两张里边有很多 B 就是让你觉得就太神了,就是不知道怎么想,咋想的呀就给做出来了。
确实是牛逼,就是别处都没有。 对,他从一开始那个 beat 带给你的那种很阴暗,很恐怖,很恐惧的那种气氛,就是那种氛围的还有那种气氛,太独特了。 对,紧张兮兮的,神秘兮兮的,有点偏执的那种,有点趣味的那种感觉,很牛逼,确实很牛逼。

It's a very counter-Utopian, very conspiracy-based book. It also mentions that there will be a new order in the future. I didn't read this, but I got some information through some of the introductions in this book. It's just that black people are actually quite easy to eat this set. Especially in the 1990s, it seems that this kind of theme is very much. We used to say that we are the characteristics of this kind of rags.
Because it has its history. The government used black people to do experiments. Including how the drug war suppressed the black people. Including how they destroyed the black people's living environment. These are all historical events.
And the "Yatana Child Murder" case I want to mention has been mentioned many times in this album. But it's very obscure. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, many black children in Yatana were allegedly murdered. And then they...
The police found a scapegoat and said it was another black man. But after the black man was convicted, there were still many children who died inexplicably. And according to the independent investigation, the number of deaths is actually much higher than the official announcement.
-
杀了这么一个黑人,就说他是凶手。 这件事情从 80 年代一直到 90 年代初, 然后这个社会案件的这么一个影响, 它其实都算是一个笼罩在黑人街区里边很沉重的一个雾霾。 我觉得像这种背景,就是体现在这些歌里边,
How did the members of the "Standard Hat" say it? They didn't say it directly, saying that the government lied to us, and the police are all fools. He just fooled us like this, and found another black man to replace Zui Yang. He actually used it inadvertently. Suddenly there was a description of this song, of this incident. Then you will
Yes, that's right.
还有刚才提到了,我不是前两天给你表达了我对贝吉普的喜爱吗? 就是这个大哥虽然是在地窖家族当中最丑的一个,形象最突出,丑,特别突出,让你丑到看一眼就无法忘记这么一个大哥, 但是在我心中,他特别牛逼的就是,他也是在讲述这些事情的时候, 他用的那种看起来非常冷漠,但是很坚定,
very cold and cold attitude. I think it was a big shock to me. Thought Process as a song that introduced you to the mood of Atlanta. The background of this song is what we just said, you have to understand. And then in 1995, Atlanta was not sure to hold the summer Olympics in 1996.
There was another background, in Atlanta, almost one-third of the black people lived below poverty line. And the proportion of the population was very high in the black city.

To be honest, it's a heavy song. Guess Who. I especially like Fighting. Fighting is probably the most shocking song I've ever listened to.

I was introduced to you by CeeLo about the battle of Shuling. I thought he was too awesome. I didn't know what he was talking about when I didn't read the Bible. But you can probably know what he was trying to say. But you don't have a very deep feeling. But then I did feel different. Just like what I said just now.
They didn't say that they wanted to go to the dead with Uncle Sam. They said that Uncle Sam wanted everyone to become a devil. But he said that you shouldn't let the devil take control of your spirit and mind. That's what he meant. So it's quite different. And he finally explained what goody mob means.
This sentence is
可能就是 spiritually 它的那种那种那种
Ha ha ha
Understanding the background of the Bible, or understanding the religious belief in the South, especially in the black community, the creation of values and the formation of their personality, is so important in their music. This does not mean that I have to believe in a full-fledged creator, not only this meaning.
spiritual power, you have to put it into one sentence, "God is every man of darkness." He guarantees that I am not like what Lin said just now. I am not a powerful attitude. I want to resist a huge machine or resist my huge confrontation.
I want to sacrifice something, I want to do something. First of all, I guarantee that my soul is pure. It is my soul and my heart that I guarantee my own righteousness and purity. This is a true sense. For us, it really is your life experience. You know the background of the Bible. You know how important faith is to you and to your life. You will have this feeling.

But we've been in the darkness so long we don't know right from wrong. Y'all scared to come near it. You ignore the voice in your head when you hear it. The enemy is after your spirit, but you think it's all in your mind.
You'll find a lot of the reason why we behind is because the system is designed to keep our third eyes blind, but not blind in the sense that our other two eyes can't see. You just end up investing quality time in places you don't even need to be. We don't even know who we are, but the answer ain't far. Matter of fact, it's right up under our nose, but the system taught us to keep that book closed. See, the reason why he got a lie deceived is so that we won't actually know who we are.

But what's worse is if I put it in a verse, y'all listen to some bullshit first. We ain't natural born killers. We are a spiritual people. God's chosen few. Think about the slave trade when they had boats with thousands of us on board and we still was praising the Lord.
You know what I'm saying? You know what I'm saying? But now niggas is ready to die over a coat, a necklace around your throat. That's bullshit. Black people, y'all better realize that we losing.

Yes, it was. It was released in 1994. The music was pretty scary. The first one didn't have the members directly involved, but the style was similar. It was more organic and muddied. The ideas were similar. Was the song "Get a Superstar" from the first one?
No, that should be the second one. That one was not published later. When it was about to be published, the company closed down. I remember. Yes, that's the second one. The first one was 1994, if I remember correctly. You are a good sister. Really a good sister. And Goodie Mob, no, Organized Noise, you see the female members of the whole underground family appear very few.
It's said that the requirement of Rekoway is too high, and no one can look up to her. She can look up to... I think... You say. No, it's said that the requirement of Rekoway is too high, and many female rappers can't look up to her, or female musicians can't look up to her. But you can often see the older sisters around her, so this is a very high recognition. And then in 2017, there was a older sister called Scar.
Yes, these two sisters are... Scar is more familiar with Big Boy. These two sisters often appear. Yes, I think it's also her. There are too many men in that gang. Women are not happy. It should be fun. Maybe it's for her to have her own reason for the selection of female roles. Yes, yes, yes.
And then the next song is also pretty awesome. I think it's connected to the translation. It's called Life at Omni. Omni is the name of a gym there, right? Or what is it? I don't know. No. Because it's not too... You're a gym? But it's a abbreviation. One Million Inside. Right. I know. I know. It's a double-dial. Wow. This beat is awesome. I dreamed of this song last night.
Yes, the "One Million Negus Inside" is related to the "Million People's Day" that they attended. Yes. It uses this source. It mainly talks about... Actually, it's basically connected to "fighting". That's what I think. It's about unity. We need to be united. It's a very positive message.
This beat is also a divine work. I don't know why it's like this. I don't know what they think of this. Sometimes you can only feel emotional. Is this talent? Anyway, God told you to do this. Then you made this kind of thing. It's too hard. Yes, there is no beat style in this album. This one is a very exciting idea.
Run me your niggas inside You can't break me even though you try Run me your niggas inside Even though you hit me with everything you got Run me your niggas inside I still found truth even though you died Run me your niggas inside
But the rest of it on instinct. Let me tell you something real. Plenty of niggas sitting in jail just to eat this decent meal. But see, the rest, they run on instinct. And the way they treat me today, like they shit don't stink. Make me mad as fuck. And for that, a million niggas going through Tad Ladder. This that shit that I like to see. A gang of niggas fucking together to put the devil straight to sleep. We send this ass to the

calls before that black police we give a sweat off my fucking balls sucking on the devil's dick already kissing on his ass for that ten dollar raised bitch beat me down for some petty cash smiling in my face as the beast looked on and laughed you can't break me even though you try one million niggas inside if you
Even though you hit me with everything you got One million niggas inside I still found truth Even though you died One million niggas inside But the rest of L.O. is sick On my nerves Instinct has taken over Which is making me move slower So I don't miss shit
So I don't get too high. When I had the structure, you betrayed the crew and I had to bust you. Want to come back and take you worried about the wrong thing. The paper ain't going to get you far. They about to start the revolution. Let you know where they are and where they stand. They got the upper
Then I played two songs more easily
什么吃的呀还有呼的呀一些东西吧 然后咱们这就基本上挨个说了 说的其实也不细 要说细的话你拆开能说挺多的 对对对 然后后半章的一个重点歌曲是 I Didn't Ask To Come 是悼念他们去世的一个街头上的兄弟的一个歌
I think from the way he writes, the way he talks, you can see that they are very humble people. They are really good singers. They are all good old singers. They are all great singers. The beat of this song is also very awesome. It's a little bit hazy, but it's also very rare. It gives the rapper a lot of space.
And The Coming, and the last song I really like it too. The last song is like, your album is very heavy, most of the songs. It's like the first song. Yes, the last song is like a poem. We've made it.
其实也是结合到那本书嘛,阴谋论那本书。 接下来世界将会有一个新的秩序,这个 New Order World。 有个盼头。 这种心灵大哥,就...
I don't know why, I'm not saying that it's similar in music. Their psychological things are really the same as Bob Marley's. I think it's the same. You told me before, after an adult, Bob Marley gives you the feeling of the psychological side. It takes a very mature or very firm point of view, attitude, attitude of life to be able to say such a thing.
Actually, it's like this. A lot of things, when you get old, you have to feel it.
Sometimes I really think that especially this kind of consciousness is reflected in hip-hop music. It's actually the most obvious. For the black people, you say we of course have to resist this social injustice, resist us, and keep this history of racial discrimination until now. But you tell me to resist, then what can I do? I don't know what I should do. Because you will realize that you don't know how to fight it.
You may already know that from the beginning of the confrontation, you know that I must sacrifice. What else can we do at this time? First of all, we have to keep our mental, our spiritual, our soul-based firmness. We have to stick to this firmness. This will bring you a kind of mental comfort. It can also bring you this kind of spiritual firmness. Like this kind of consciousness, I think it is often reflected in many
It's a very special song.

This one is my favorite of all the albums. Can you listen to it ten times? You can listen to it ten times. And the article written by Ronnie Carmichael, it's not a good idea to watch it.

OK, let's continue. We've finished the most important album. We've talked about so many things. Next, I'd like to mention "Sell It Off" soundtrack. It was released in 1996. I learned about it later.
I actually watched this movie this year. I watched it at the beginning of the year. Because I watched it... It was on the internet. I don't know if you guys have seen the show "The Winstaple Show" in which there is a episode about robbing a bank. And Winstaple said, "If you do a heist, you are George Clooney. If you rob a bank, you are Queen Latifah."
Organized Noise
It's probably organized noise. Not all of the songs are their songs, but they're curate songs. Latifah also made a song in it. There's a super famous song, "Mog". It's a light and famous song. And there's another song, "Angelic Warfare". It's also good.
I haven't watched the movie. I watched it once and it was a hit. It's gone. Yes, it's the era of media. If you don't watch it, you may be off the shelf one day. This movie is highly recommended for everyone to watch. It's not just a story about robbing a bank. It's really a story about the friendship between black people and sisters.
Right. And then Organized Noise, we mentioned earlier that they produced the song for TRC, so they produced a lot of R&B songs for them in those years.
-
没啥特色。 第一首歌还行,第一首歌上榜了,然后剩下的歌,不是主要那几个人唱的也不太行,导致确实不太行,R&B 还是一个行伙了,就是有一套的东西,但是反正大家如果感兴趣可以听着玩玩。
Organized Noise went to LA at this time. They signed an interscope contract with Interscope for millions of dollars.
They didn't stay because they wanted Organized Noise to be a success in re-created Waterfall. But this thing is not something you can do it yourself. It's too commercialized or based on the meaning of Interscope's executives.
-
I was so relaxed. I didn't do much with the work. I fought with the executives every day. I finally returned to Atlanta. Atlanta is our final home. LA is not for you. LA is not good. The atmosphere is different. I can't stay. LA is not good. And during that time, the relationship between the members was a bit conflicted.
Oh, it's inevitable. There are many things that can happen. I remember saying that it was Sleepy Brown or someone else. He said that he was wearing different women in the studio every day. Not doing well. Anyway, he came back again. So it's okay. And the most important work is ATL's 96th All Cats.
Yeah.
特别的凛冽 ATLians 就有点像那种夏天在家里泡热水澡 然后吹空调 就是这种感觉 是特别舒适 是一个很私人的一个空间 私人小世界那种感觉 我觉得它其实整个概念可能有点 我也不知道
I can't say it's too empty. I don't think it's too empty. But it's a very floating, comfortable feeling. Most of his songs are obviously soft. And then there are some, you can say it's a sense of the future. I don't know if I can say that. But anyway, it's also a sense of the future that comes from funk. I think it's probably closer to that.
But it's not that much of a P-Funk. It's more of a concept-based music. And there are a lot of good songs. Is this your favorite Orkast album? Yes, I told you. One is ATL's "Ince" and the other is "Crimineye". These two are my favorite Orkast albums. My favorite of this album is "Mainstream".
I'm not sure how to describe it, but it's really touching. It's like being surrounded by a warm stream.
暖流,挺好挺好,就是一種,聽那個, mainstream 的時候一開始就是一股清澈的暖流,只能這麼說,不好形容。

Yeah, I feel like Andre in this one, his psalm...
嗯 嗯 嗯 嗯
He has already thought about it. He has a conclusion. He will tell you. He just said a vague idea. Sometimes it's very subtle. I think it's particularly subtle. That's how he feels. So why is Andre still considered one of the best MCs? Because he has a lot of things. His perspective is really vague. I can't say it's vague. It's vague. You can know what he wants to say. But...
That's the feeling. And it's very interesting. It's a little bit naughty and impolite. Except for Andre, there's no other style.
-
So it's a bit like how young people remember things they did when they were younger. It's not just pure old-fashioned memories. It's about how young people remember things they did when they were younger. It's quite amazing. In fact, many songs are also from the past. Like Wheels and Steals, Elevators.
So many of them are like this. It's very interesting. Really, if you say that the one from 1994, the author said it was like a baby baller, there is a feeling of youth. You see these two big boys in ATL, the kind of tenderness they show off. Is it that kind of tenderness, especially this kind of delicacy? This kind of delicacy is really, especially from a straight man's perspective, this kind of feeling, this kind of thing.
It's so awesome. It's very different. It's almost the same as it was back then. Yeah. And then, Andrew is like this. And then Big Boy, damn it. To be honest, it's really hard to describe Big Boy. I don't know how to describe it. I have a very high evaluation of Big Boy. I told you before that he's a bit like...
How to say it? When Takeoff died, people realized that Takeoff was actually an important part of Migos' style. I think Big Boi is the same in this respect. But Big Boi's aesthetic is not the same as a typical rapper's. His aesthetic is very strange.
I think it can be compared to Guru. You have to say what he said. I said your evaluation is too high. Yes, he actually has a very strange aesthetic. Not very high or something. But his aesthetic is very unique. And then Outcast's style is actually...

I don't understand. I don't understand. Look, our direction constellation, I saw a video before, someone went to the mental hospital to investigate the constellation. 80% of the mental hospital is the direction constellation. These are the three of us.
然后你们天秤是得精神病比率最高的,接下来是水瓶座,虽然是一个段子,但是我觉得大家挺有说服力,因为风向星座,我这样说一些星座的一些刻板印象,风向星座其实就是这样的。
Right? I'm not that good at this. And then, Acrimonite, this album is also a very important change in the style of OutKast. Or they have a very obvious change. This one, as Lin said before, it's like Prince. It's a bit like Prince. I think this one is like they started
I think it's time for a breakthrough in the field of hip-hop. ATL is a very original hip-hop work for them. And then when it comes to Acrimonite, you feel that they are no longer limited to hip-hop. And then their inspiration comes from many, just like what we said earlier, is P-Fang. Because of the "Cowboy and the Pigeon King", this one seems to be good.
The next "The Prince" is more obvious. This one is mainly about some P-Funk, including some thunder and ghost, and all kinds of music styles. They are merging and merging. This album has some famous songs that I have to mention. Rosa Parks must be one. Yes, Rosa Parks must be the most famous. Spolioli.
This kind of song is suitable for 3 year olds. It's a brand new thing. It's not a hip-hop innovation. The meaning and message of this song is also very good. I was very shocked when I first heard this song.
If you know a little bit about the history of black people and the Civil Rights movement, then you will know that Rosa Parks is a historical figure. She refused to be a leader of a very good civil rights movement in the back row of the bus to oppose racial isolation. She used the leaders of the civil rights movement to integrate the world into the song.
That feeling of pride and confidence is just too awesome. Everyone can sit behind the bus, but we are the ones who make the club get crunk. This is too awesome. Although there are only a few words, the first time I heard it, I was very shocked. I love it.
Right, and it's a pop music style. It's not heavy at all. This song is invincible. And you said there are many rap songs with piano accompaniment. Yes. Maybe there are not many songs in total. Right.
All that's looking good.

I met a gypsy and she hit me to some life game to stimulate and activate the left and right brain. So baby boy, your only phone can add your last cut. You focus on the past as it be your hands. What? That's what you live by or either. That's what you die to. I try to just throw it at you. Determine your own adventure. Andre got to a station. Here's my destination. She got off the bus. The conversation lingered in my head for hours.
I was took a shower kind of sour cuz my favorite group ain't coming with it But I'm with you cuz you're probably going through it anyway But anyhow went and died went on out and bought it cuz I thought it would be jamming but examine all the flaws get walls get off lit sand and it's costly but that's all shit bro and I hope I never have to float in that boat up shit's creek it's which is the last quote that I wanna hear when I'm going down with all said and done and we got a new Joe in town when the record player get to skipping and slowing down all y'all can say is them niggas are until then who stay cool
We'll be right back.
The music used in this book is also very good. I also mentioned Carmichael. Carmichael wrote a long article before. It's about the making of a criminal. It's similar to this. He disassembled every song and let everyone involved in the production talk about the creation process. This article is also very interesting. There are many things in it.
制作过程当中的这种细节,而且就是当事人这样说的话,其实是非常有说服力,能打开你很多思路的这么一篇文章。 对,那那个就是众人来分解的那个文章挺好,我那天你发了我也看过,后来发现其实我以前也看过。 是吧,你说你但凡你提到亚特兰娜,你到后来你就发现,其实很多文章都是卡尔迈克写的。
I didn't notice it, but now I know. The first person to learn the geography is Carmichael.
Spodioli is so good! I really like the same instrument in Western Korean music. From Spodioli. I found that this song is very inspiring for many producers. I found that this instrument is so good and so good.

As the plot thickens, it gives me the Dickens reminiscent of Charles. A little discotheque nestled in the ghettos of Nickerville, USA. Via Atlanta, Georgia. A little spot where young men and young women go to experience their first little taste of the nightlife. Me? Well, I've never been there. Well, perhaps once, but I was so engulfed in the O.E. I never made it to the door. You speak of hardcore.

Actually, "Acquaintance" is a pretty good song. The accompaniment is a bit too simple. It's been going around, but there are some subtle changes in the middle. The beat of that song is also very awesome. Andriy has a few lines at the end. A "stabbing" and a "crazy stumbling" is also a highlight.
Ok, after talking about Accriminalize, I think this album can actually say a lot, but there is no way to separate it very carefully in this program. Finally, I would like to add that this album is also the first one to win a 5-point male-oriented album in Source Magazine. Yes, a male-oriented hip-hop album. It's also the first one. I really like the last song of this album.
A guitarist, Chunky Fire. Chunky Fire. So this album is probably the most popular one of them. Yeah, you have a good description. Very good. Because of all kinds of styles. I think this album has another feature. From this album, the proportion of Organized Noise is smaller. Most of them are their own.
Organized noise is still a big part of the design. But they are gradually getting better at it.
The narrative of this album is also very interesting. It's still what we just talked about. Andre and Big Boy are talking about something. Their narrative is very special. You have to experience more. You can't just say it in words. You have to experience more. Outcast is really hard to describe. Because just like their name, it's not a typical thing.
Yes. But it's really good. Well,
Right, and this year is 1998, you also mentioned that 1998 is a great year for the land. In this year, he released a lot of important works. Except for the one we just mentioned, Outcast of the Criminal, and Goody Mob's second album, Still Standing. This album, I think Goody Mob's first two albums are the best. The rest, I didn't listen to them. The ones after that are indeed much worse. The first two albums are different in volume.
And then in this album, I want to say the one I like the most is I don't know how to read it. What is it? Isha Alam Inshallah Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes

And hopefully we can make it the rest of the way. Hey, with empathy, I explain. My relationship, my true way to give and bring. And I refuse to settle and accept several in plain. I much rather excite and like and then entertain. Passionately persistent, but I preach this positivity. To stand up for God by the hardest thing that I can say.

It's really awesome. That song is really... I used to feel like the songs that I listened to as a single were really good. I still feel like the songs that I listened to as a single are really good. But the rest of the songs are also pretty good. The songs that I listened to as a single and put them in the second line of the Dijiao family, they must all be top-notch songs.
所以说还是很优秀的一张专辑吧 我觉得这张他们可能有一点转变 就是说专辑还是一个比较深刻的基调 我不知道怎么说 就是说还是有探讨了一些严肃题材吧 但好像整体基调比上一张轻松了一点 就没有那么凛冽的那种感觉了
But there might be more discussions about the identity of the black people. Yes, you can see it from the individual. Yes, it's pretty obvious. And then there's more concern. Maybe there's more concern than the first one. The first one is more street-like. There were some jokes about the hip-hop at the time.
They don't dance no more, all they do is this. 还有就是 Wish Doctor 首张 Sleep is Thin。
The style of Witch Doctor is quite outstanding. And the production of the album is mainly organized noise. The production is also quite good. But I think that the more you listen to the character, the more you feel a little bit of a coward. His personal style is indeed a little bit of a weirdo.
这么一种感觉,还是挺好的,我觉得就是说你听够了 Goodie 和 Cast 最好的这些东西,其实你一听 Wish the Doctor,其实你就也是值得一听,但是就是我觉得说唱的分量可能差一点儿。

I feel like I'm doing a lot of work.
It's worth listening to. If you like Organized Noise, but you want to listen to more, it's worth listening to. I listened to Sleepy a little more. Because I feel that Sleepy has a very soul music style. Yes, it's very 70s. I think there are a few songs that are pretty good.
I think their music is so good. Organized noise. I can listen to their guitar bass music. I think... No time for it. I can't help it. But this is actually a small company's invention. It's quite uncommon. So I only knew about this thing in the first few years. I didn't know there was such a thing before.
But others like Witch Doctor, seems to be from Interscope. And they are all from big companies. Yes. It feels like you want to go back to the traditional soul music aesthetic. Yes, I think it's some of Sleepy's preferences. It's very smooth. It's too smooth. Maybe a little too smooth.
Because it's so smooth, there's no special style that stands out from the old days. But overall it's smooth. It's pretty good. It's worth a listen if you like their style. And then in 1999, Cool Breeze. I think Cool Breeze is okay.
It's more like a street-style BB boy. It's not that good. But it's not that high-level. It's not that distinctive. But the production is good. It's still the production of Organized Noise. And it seems to be harder and more distinctive.
Cool Breeze
There's a group that's very famous for their group singing. It's called Watch for the Hook. I only listened to this song. I don't think there's much else. I think the first half of this song is pretty good. But the second half is pretty good. There are some popular songs like Nivea. Nivea, even Corrupt.
Yeah, it's very sudden. But I think this one is not very outstanding, but the album is rather patient. I don't know how to describe this kind of thing. Some of his songs are not that heavy, but they are good to listen to occasionally. From the perspective of fans.
And then Goody Mob's third Xio Ji. Old Lin said this is Xio Ji. Yeah, he's the one who imitates Xio Ji.
This one is a bit messy. I don't know how to describe it. It's too messy. Once this mess happens, I always feel like the previous two songs are very intense or very dark. There's too much difference. Once it's messy, it's not the same. It's like a big mess from the beginning.
Yeah, I think they're trying to be like Julepoo, because the song "Crunk" is already up in the South. So if you want to try a more relaxed style of Julepoo, I have no problem with it. But I think the main problem is that they deliberately did it in a silly way. I think they did it on purpose. They did it to make it feel like they were deliberately playing along with the music.
You know what I mean? You have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own music and you have your own
I think they lost their direction at that time. They didn't know what to do. They did something serious and serious. They did enough. But they didn't have a good idea. That's how I feel.

It does have an impact on the future, but you always feel like they're not together. That's right. Actually, it's not a bunch of people. I don't think it's just a place. But we're not sure because we've never been there.

What happened? I think it's important that what Lin mentioned before, those who can walk, those who can be very successful in the business, still have to rely on Huang Xiaoming. Huang Xiaoming is a person who can't do anything. Although it is very important, you always feel that the middle is broken. Yes, and Huang Xiaoming is from the street area after all. He may have some aesthetic things and what he said may indeed be brothers on the street.
Ludacris
Yes, it's also Atlanta. But his style is actually more like a New York style of hip-hop. That's right. That means this person knows hip-hop. You know? That's the feeling. But Ludacris is pretty good. Although there are few people who mention him now. But Ludacris is pretty good. But it's still not the same as TI. It's not as local as you think.
But there are also some more strange ones like Pastor Troy, Field Mob, Jim Crow, Crime Mob, and so on. And the one about the tiger, you said rural rap, this word is very well described. At that time, a group of people mainly focused on a rural image, deliberately seemed very rural.
Actually, Outcast was like that too. They were proud of being rural. But it was like a film of. You feel like you're over-emphasizing your ruralness. And at that time, many southern places were like Alabama, Dirty.
Then there's David Banner from Mississippi. These are probably a little behind. I'm not going into the age range. Then there's Nippy Roots. It's like a fucking KFC. They're all very rural. You look at it like the MV is on the broken dirt road. The big brother is wearing a jeans belt pants. It's a rural image. There were a lot of them in those years. Including Nelly. Right?
嗯,就是,其实很多这帮人也是受到了 OutKast 的影响,就 OutKast,不是,不能说受到他们的影响,就是说他们在包装上,起码就是说他们的唱片公司,在包装他们的时候会借鉴 OutKast,比如就是特别明显的就是 Dirty,本来那俩就是纯他妈那个街上大哥,一个他们的那个风格就叫,不是,他们的专辑就叫 The Pinpan, The Hustler,应该是我没记错,但是他们就是,
In the 2002 or 2003 album, you would feel that Pimp was dressed very fancy. It felt like he was obviously walking the path of Andrew. But actually those two are just street guys.
Field Mob is a song that is a bit experimental, a bit left field. I believe that these record companies have considered it from the perspective of Outkast.
But I still think it's very different. First of all, people are different. The environment is different. But I also want to say that from the end of the 90s to the beginning of the 2000s, the local economy in Atlanta was very fast. Although we didn't say that we experienced that period, but from the movies that were released at that time, it was very obvious.
亚特兰大它本身它为什么对于南方来说它是非常重要的, 甚至就是它被称为 Black Mecca, 就是黑人的一个卖家城, 它其实是从 80 年代就已经有了, 因为那个时候 70 年代亚特兰大的第一位黑人市长, 他其实就是有非常明显的一个决心, 就是要发展亚特兰大的经济, 这个是中间穿上了这么一段历史小背景, 大家可以就是查一下, 当时亚特兰大是七,
In 1972, the first black mayor of Manhattan, I forgot if it was 1972, it was the beginning of the 70s. The first black mayor, Maynard Jackson, in order to encourage the economy at that time, he intentionally supported many small black companies. Then slowly make the economy better. Everyone will definitely know, for example,
从这个废除奴隶制之后, 其实很多南方的黑人都是向北迁移的嘛。 他们在纽约呀,在其他城市, 在芝加哥慢慢,其实在北方, 对,北方的这些城市里边, 黑人发展是特别好的。 然后 70 年代,亚特兰大开始扶持这些黑人的小企业家之后, 慢慢地带动了当地的经济。 那很多黑人又重新回到了亚特兰大。 从 70 年代开始, 其实经济其实就已经开始慢慢变好了。 而且当时这个黑人市长, 就是有很多太平洋人,
它有很多的政策,其实都是对黑人是非常有关怀的。 就比如说成立了那个什么 Bureau of Cultural Affairs, 其实就是也推动了文化事业, 就是想让街上的这些孩子们远离犯罪,远离毒品, 希望他们从音乐文化这个事业上面慢慢的成长起来。 所以也就看到为什么亚特兰大当时就是娱乐文化发展的特别好,
准备那个时候搞那么多小少年的那种选秀节目啊什么的之类的,然后一直到 90 年代明显的能看出到啊,
The economic development is getting better and better. I only learned later that many film and television festivals were not in New York but in Atlanta. The economic development of the city and the development of the city in Atlanta is very good. I remember there was a black American drama in the 00s. I forgot what it was called. It was pretty awesome.
is
foreign
很有当地特色的这种什么轮花厂呀什么的,这些其实都是在很多电影里面都有体现,ATL 这个电影也挺好的,就是黄晓明颜值巅峰时期,我特喜欢那电影,黄晓明颜值巅峰时期一个电影而言,也是也可以看到千禧年的时候亚特兰大当时,尤其是黑人经济发展的非常好,文化事业就是蓬勃向上的这么一种感觉啊。
Yes, it's all about the era of the entertainment industry. Yes, the entertainment industry is always like Crunk. Why? Because Crunk is too club-like. He enjoys music in the club. The music is not deep.
Yes, it's a song that is full of energy. This song was the music in the mainstream club of Atlanta at that time. Then it gradually developed to the Atlanta we are familiar with today. So if you compare it with the Dungeon Family in the 90s, you will find that they really developed themselves.
Although it has an impact, it's not very obvious. I can understand why it's broken in the middle. I'm not saying that because he is so deep in his topic, he is destined not to be successful in mainstream business. But Outcast is very successful in business. It's hard to say. Yes, he is not a hood. But he is very real.
Right.
The black people are really crunk. They are the ones who are screaming and screaming, and they have the energy to do that kind of music. So when I first started to listen to hip-hop music, for example, if you want to listen to some of the classic songs of the Atlanta band, when I first listened to Outkast, I felt that the sound of Atlanta was very different from what I had known. That's right, it's really different. So that's why it's such a situation. The situation of Atlanta is quite complicated.
And then we can say that Stan Konia, released in 2000, is the favorite of Lao Lin. Yes, this is my favorite. Because I actually have been the favorite of all the Outcasts from the second, third, and fourth. I've been the favorite of the fifth one. My favorite now is Stan Konia. Maybe it won't change. After many years of selection, I still think this one is the best.
I like it the most. I can't say it's the best, I like it the most. This album started with an era, I think. The main sound was organized noise. But from this album, from Stankonia, Outkast is completely solid. And they created a new style. Only they can do this style.
This is the difference between this one and Aquamina. This one has its own recording studio.
导致了一个特别大的区别,就是说他们现在做的音乐完全是很多是一种,就是说他现在可以 24 小时不受时间的限制在录音棚里,能无限的鼓捣他们的音乐。 你像以前他们录音乐,他们录音棚得租的嘛,就是说你不可能在那一直待着一直搞,那就是钱就海了,他只能说在一个特定的时间去完成工作。 他可以说之前有排练,有讨论,但是到的那个录音棚里的时间是有限的。
But now it's different, they can think about their music without any hesitation, and they can tune the sound and drum without any problem. They can keep doing it. So this has a new effect. And there are many songs in Sankonia that you might not agree with.
But they really made it into a song. And the level is quite rich. There's a particularly strange sound here for a while, and then there's another strange sound for a while. But it's quite interesting to put them all together. After many years, you can still hear some new things. I think this is a big change. On the other hand, their music seems to have more energy now.
The previous ones were more laid back But this one especially the drum part There are a lot of songs like B.O.B. The drum is very powerful and has a high BPM And the guitar is used more And it has more of the prince's influence I think And the p-funk is still very strong The whole concept is
Why is it called Stankonia? It's a kind of fantasy, like the Utopan. Stank means "funker" in English. The original meaning of funk is "smelly". Stank means "funker". Stank is stank. Stankonia is a country of the Utopan. It's pretty cool, I think.
I really admire their creative style and ideas. In addition, many songs are still very flexible in terms of the direction of the song or the level or the musical style. Hip-hop's arrangement is not that flexible. It's more about loops, cuts, and cycles.
But I think the flexibility of the whole arrangement reached a new level in that year. And I think this image of the two of them

A new era of change. Yes, an identity update. I often see people say that their cover is black and white, and that it is a black and white American flag. What is it? What is it worth saying? But in fact, I think it's just one of the few aspects. Because compared to their upgrade to music, this information is actually quite insufficient. There is nothing to say. My understanding is that

真的是南方人对这个国旗的执念。 对,就是,是了,他可能也有一种政治的那个表态,但是可能不太重要,因为我觉得这张里他们其实所讨论的话题还是有挺多种多样的,但是就是整体我觉得很轻松。
And I feel like the writing level has also become higher. Maybe it's not a big piece of lyrics, but it can make some of the particularly wonderful chorus and melody.
这是照亮挥之不去的那种感觉,特别牛逼。 对,柔情蜜意的 Mrs. Jackson。 我觉得这首歌,它为什么能成为经典, 就是很少有见到在讲爱情的时候是以这个角度在讲。 对,没错。 而且这是出自于两个直男的这么一个角度, 能想到有这样的一个叙述展开的角度, 实在是太让人感动了。
没错 Mrs. Jackson 她当时是和巴杜是已经分手了吧 Andre 分手了 虽然说 分手歌曲 是个分手歌曲 充满了这个 充满了就是说就是这个温暖吧 是 Big Boy 那两个不太温暖 Big Boy 是一种那个对前女友的控诉 但是 Andre 那边非常温暖

So, it's a god song. This is definitely a god song. Although B.o.B is also considered a god song by the back, I feel that this song is just because it has too much energy. Yes, it's too strong. Too much. This song has a lot of energy, but I think this song is a statement of them. Because you see, this song has electric guitar, and this energy-rich drum.
And there's also a fucking chorus class behind me. I mainly don't like electric guitars. This is the era when Andrei learned to play the guitar. So he used to play a lot of guitars. Including Gasoline Dreams. I remember a lot of songs. Andrei has been learning to play the guitar lately. This album is the first half of the album.
But in the second half, there were some... You know, they even named it randomly. What was it? Humble Mamble? Stripping and... Snapping and tripping. Spaghetti Junction. They're all these strange things. But some songs, you feel like they're not easy to form. But they're actually pretty good.
This is freedom after the recording room. Yes, especially the last three songs. It's a little song. I don't know if I can say that. Like Toilet, T-shirt, Slum Beautiful, and finally Stankonia. I don't know where that song is. I don't know what this song is. It's too awesome. They won't have this kind of thing anymore.
So I think it's very creative and precious. Including the things they made for others during their time. They named it Earth Tone 3. It's like they and Mr. DJ. Earth Tone 3. I think it's worth listening to.
包括你提到的 Mystical 这个 Mystical 那个也就挺闹腾的 就是在千几年代已经非常 听起来很稽也很闹的这种音乐 对 其实还是挺独特的 就是 Krunk 大潮 Krunk 彻底席卷 说唱之前的还是这个南方音乐 还是有挺多有意思的东西 对 那个时期老林经常叫什么 农村说唱大潮 我就叫彩人音乐
也差不多啊 对啊 反正就是这段时期我确实特别喜欢 然后他们出 这张你还有要说的吗 你是不是想说光榜的大姐了 对对对 我就知道了 展开谈谈 这是不买谈谈的人不了解的一个信息 对这张那个之后他们还出了一个精选 精神里其实就只有新歌了 有一首好像德格莱美了
And then, anyway, their first four albums, plus this selection, these five albums, their CD cover is all the sister of the light stick. The early CDs, they actually have a dirty one, there's a black and white label, Parental Advisory, but all the albums of Outcast are on the plastic box. So that means that a lot of the albums we bought before, the plastic box has been changed.
So we can't tell if this disc is dirty or not. There used to be a clean disc. In order to sell this disc to the health care workers, they would clean it up. Clean version. Yes, clean version. It may not be so popular now, I suspect. But it used to be. How does Outcast distinguish between a clean disc and a dirty one? Look at the disc on the disc. If it has a leak, it's a dirty disc. Yes.
She's a clean plate. She would either adjust the angle, or move the point out, or she would put on a shirt for you. This painting is pretty awesome. I only learned about this after you shared it with me. The painting is very awesome. Yes, the painting is pretty cool. It's also a very Funkadelica style. The big sister is pretty cool.
- Mm. - Mm. - Mm.
然后这段新时期的话,01 年我们可以简单带过一下,就是地教比较周边边缘的一些人物出品的一些作品。 也是 Slim Car Home,这个我真的我也不乐意咋听。 无所谓的。 这张其实这个大哥说的真的很一般,主要就是听听那个,因为他主要是 Earth Tone 3 制作的。
但是他那个每首歌差不多四分钟,然后一张专辑给你放 17 首歌,就是你听到最后真的特别累,因为他那个音乐没有那么丰富,大哥说的也很一般,但是尤其是我 B 的还是蛮好听的。 然后还有一个就是 Bike Boom,对,Bike Boom 主要是 Organize No Noise 制作的。
It's also very plain. But this big brother is also quite plain. But the album balance is slightly better. I think it's better than Slim Con. But it's all about listening and not listening. These are all. It doesn't matter.
Even in Darkness
Yes, this one is still a bit famous. The cover is really weird. I haven't listened to this one for years because the cover is too ugly. It's mainly because it's ugly on Biggif, right? Biggif is really unforgettable. There's also a black cover. And C-Low, they're all really ugly.
But the song is pretty good. It's also a bit like Stankonia's songs from that era. It's got a lot of energy. It's a classic song. And then the members are all here. It's rare. It's just one of them. And then there's their own unique...

When did Killer Mike first enter the scene? Although he is a member of the second generation. Killer Mike's first appearance should be in Stunconia. He has a song called Sniping and Trapping. The beat of that song is not said by anyone. Then Killer Mike came out and stayed calm. He may have a better relationship with Big Boy. Big Boy brought him here.
Another big song is Boba Sparks. He's also from B-Boy, right? He's also from B-Boy. Boba Sparks was mainly mixed with Timberland. His first album was basically all made by Timberland. But the second one was pretty good, called Deliverance. Most of it was made by Timberland. And there were a few songs organized by Noise. But the best song was actually made by Timberland.
It's a 100-person song, but it's a bit like Deliverance, trying to integrate some rural elements. But it's still a great song. After all, Timberland and Organized are good at it. It's a good song. Then let me see, this is 2001. After that,
按照时间顺序说的话,到 02 年可以提一下 Joy 大姐,Star Kitty。 这张挺爽的,这张也是,他妈的就是挺骇人的,我觉得就是那种,就是有点挺恐怖的那种音乐。 Techno Pimp, Diva 中的 Diva,太有名了。
And I personally think of it as a female version of Stankonia. Although it doesn't have an All-Cards participation, the aesthetic is quite similar. There's a bit of a strange funk and experimental stuff in it. The bass is very strong. This big sister likes to sing on a bass-heavy music. A lot of people think of her as Betty Davis.
I don't know if you know this big sister. This big sister is Betty Davis. She is a very wild big sister who is as good as Miles Davis. But I don't think Joey is as wild as her. Joey is still very confident about his music. It's awesome. I really like the one he didn't release in the last one. And his ex-husband, Big Gabe's, Ghetto Superstar. Ghetto Superstar.
休闲好抗力呀 太舒适 太休闲 太有爱了 那张专辑也是命运生不逢时吧 好像全是 FaceFoam 伴奏的 其实你听也是有点像 可能就 Organized Noise 制作的东西 就是一些特别 Organic 的那种 Funk 味的东西 我后来听了听 但是很遗憾吧 就是出来的时候好像都是零几年出的 当然也没人在乎了 对
照一大姐还是一个挺有思路的一个大姐。 对,真是一个好大姐。 那种怪不好形容。 不好形容,就是一个那样。 每次提到这个就是不好形容,是的。 因为就是一个那样,你就很难形容,没法说。
嗯
this one is good star kitty's revenge celo's first celo green hey celo green since leaving the group ah can say that is celo green after leaving the group of goody mob from world party the next one is not that what is it without him um um that one what is that album called i don't remember uh uh that one
嗯。
I don't have any big impressions, but since the World Party in 1999, CeeLoGren has been trying to develop his own projects. He wants to do some personal projects. And then, after that, the fourth one of Goodie Mob was released. There's nothing much to say about it. Yes, a lot of things are like this. I'm just curious, but if you're interested, you can listen to it.
CeeLo Green is a very unique person, but his solo works are not that popular. Some people are not good at making their own solo works. And there are some far away artists like Kyle Holmes.
I just listed them, if you are interested, you can look for it. These records were all released by big companies. In 2003, Killer Mac released their first album, Monster. There are two famous songs in it, Action and Adidas. Other songs are fine, but I think the songs are too heavy, but not suitable for back and forth listening.
Yes. Is Killer Mac involved in the production of this song? Yes, I remember that the title song was made by Outkast. I'm not sure, but I can check it out. Then in 2003, Big Ape, I like the ugly big brother, Mutant Mindfree. This is a fan-made song.
I think he's a bit too much. First of all, he's a very ugly guy. Second, I really like the sound of Gap. I think his voice is really good. It's a very big song.
This one is also a bit of a Kronk style. And then there's a bit of a DiGio style. So it's not bad. He's got it all. One person is a bit of a Kronk. Because his voice is very suitable for this style. His personal characteristics are in line with this Kronk style. Yes, this is actually the Kronk. Yes, yes, yes. We can focus on the DiGio 2nd generation. The Kronk of 2003. Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
This one is also very mysterious, I didn't know about this before. Thank you Liu Feiti, now I can listen to it. Second Generation, Riku Presents. In this one, the most toxic man in the future, who will become the representative rapper of Asia-Taiwan, Future, is shown as a mid-head, as a second generation of the underground, as Riku's cousin. This one is quite down to earth, quite good.
嗯,这张我非常喜欢。 而且你现在听,03 年有这么一张, 非常好看。 挺不容易的。 成前启后这种感觉。 对啊,就是说他们也在尝试新的, 但是就是也还保留着自己的那种怪味。 嗯。

Yeah, I don't know why but later on, there were a lot of people saying that Future was Rico's cousin, and that he was also a member of the underground. I was like, "How is that possible?" Because I'm from the same generation as him, but Future is not young. He was the first one to mix with these people. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Actually, the aesthetic is still a bit influential, especially in the Pluto era. It's a bit weird.
But I think Pluto was more involved in the music at that time. Or was it Mike Williams? Yes, but I mean he always wanted to make something a little bit spacey, a little bit of a flash beat. It's still a little strange. It seems to be less and less in the future, but it's pretty weird in the early days.

I don't know. But his MV was really popular. I think he must have hated it for a year or two. It's like the dark night. Yeah, it's also dark night. But we like Rosé the most. Rosé is really... I like Rosé the most. Actually, that...
I think there are quite a lot of good songs hidden in those two. The speaker box is mostly good. Yes. And then what do I think? In fact, everyone was attracted to "The Love Below" at first. Because it's a special prince style. And you can't describe it. It's not the same.
Then there are some famous songs like "Heia", "Roses", "Prototype", "Happy Valentine's Day" which are all pretty good. But I think that one is too much. It seems to be a bit boring. On the contrary, listening to "Speakerbox" is getting better and better.
So I prefer the speaker box version. There are many hidden songs in the speaker box, like Unhappy, which you also chose, Reset, The Last Call, and some other songs in the middle. They're all pretty good. At the beginning, I think it was the first time that everyone realized that BigBoy was actually quite good at grasping the style of Outer Pass.
And then he also finished this album pretty well. It's very lively. And they continued the production method of Stankonia. But this album may have a more song-like feeling. They want to write a song. That's the feeling. Sometimes Stankonia feels like a bunch of things are messed up. But this one feels like they want to write a song.
嗯,这一张其实我也是最近在回顾的时候听的比较多,之前我不太乐意听,就是首先就是我总感觉这张有点太想做流行的那种,然后呢,它的这个流行也并不是那种非常顺的那些流行,它是有一些很怪的东西。
这张的话我其实更愿意就是觉得是这两个人 他在整个当时的音乐场景当中作为很突出一个形象的一个存在嘛 一个是黑夜他那个 video 确实拍的非常有创意 这个就别说是嘻哈音乐当中最牛逼的 MV 之一了 这个对后来很多就是叙事性的那种 MV 的这种影响 都很明显的感觉到他甚至影响了 Tether 的 creator 他很多创意的那种想法
And also, "Roses" is so good. I might listen to this more. "Caroline" is... I don't listen to other songs. Recently, I found that I can understand what you said. Big Boy's control over music
是很需要得到强调和认可的。 就是他们俩真的是我觉得少了谁都不行,就是 Andre 可能自己搞还真搞不出来啥。
嗯。
There's a guy in a lot of their MVs who dances with an umbrella, his name is Farnsworth Bentley. He appeared in The Way You Move and Roses. This guy also had some artistic ideas, and later joined some of Kanye's albums. He also released an album, but the reflection was not very strong. He has a song in his album, which is about Kanye and Andre.
um
But this one was really successful back then. I think they are all good. All the things from 00 to 03 were too precious. After that, they were gone and no one could make them. At that time, their inspiration was so strong. It was very precious.
This is something you have to look back at and compare it with the work that appeared in the same period of time. I was impressed by the video of the Glamour Award. It was said that it was the best year-end best musical album. Andrei rushed up on stage and took the trophy and said thank you. Then he turned around and left. He was called the most awesome Glamour artist in history.
我忘了。 就是那股特别满不在乎的那种劲儿。 你说真的是,Andre 这个人啊,你们是双子座呀。
I remember, I forgot which one it was, I think I was 50 points ahead of them. Everyone thought it was 50 points, but I didn't expect Outcast. It's so rich. Especially Rose, you said you really like Rose's MV. It's really creative and it's a set of things. It includes you from the visual aspect, from the production aspect, from the story telling aspect, this whole set.
所有的这一切,确实称得上是年度最佳。 对。 在对比 50 分,那肯定就是太浅了嘛。 对,50 分也不错了,但还是一个嘻哈氛围,而且不太适合格莱美了,确实也是。 嗯。 嗯。
The time it took to look inside and realize Go for real, girls, ha-ah, yeah I know you'd like to thank your shit don't stank But a little bit closer, see Roses really smell like boo-boo-boo Roses really smell like boo-boo-boo Thank your shit don't stank But lean a little bit closer, see Roses really smell like boo-boo-boo
Yeah, a rose is really spelled like boo-boo. Paralyzed. I hope she's speeding on her way to the club. Try to hurry up and get to a ball or a slag or somebody like that. And try to put on her makeup in the mirror and crash, crash, crash into a ditch. Just glancing. She needs to go and calculate her two to five. Time it takes to lie to Mars, girl.
Thank you shit don't stay a little bit closer see roses really smell like boo boo boo
Well, she got a hottie's body, but her attitude is potty. When I met her at a party, she was hardly acting naughty. I said, Charlie, would you call me? She said, pardon me, are you bawling? I said, darling, you sound like a prostitute. Palsy. Oh, so you're one of them pricks. Get geeked at the sight of an ATM receipt. But game been peaked. Dropping names, she's weak. Tricking off this bitch's laws. Mistake me for a geek. A prick.
Way to eat, uh, deep place to sleep, uh Rent a car for a week, uh, trick for a treat, no Go on the raw sex, my age test is flawless, regardless We don't wanna get involved with all the lawyers If judges just to hold grudges in the courtroom I wanna see your support, bro, and I support you I know you'd like to fame your shit don't stain But a little bit closer, see roses really smell like boo-boo-boo And roses really smell like boo-boo-boo
Thank you, shit don't stank, lean a little bit closer, see, roses really smell like boo-boo-boo-boo, yeah, roses really smell like boo-boo-boo-boo, I know you like thank you, shit don't stank, but lean a little bit closer, see, roses really smell like boo-boo-boo-boo, roses really smell like boo-boo-boo-boo.
Um
Grace. This girl
This song is really good. I'll add it later. It's also the big South Korean group. Nelly and Paul Wow also appeared. It was Nelly's album. Yes. And then in 2005, Big Boy and his group of people who are more familiar with him and the group he recommended, the first edition of the album, called Purple Ribbon All Stars.
There's also a famous song called "Crypto Night" by Killer Mac. Sleepy Brown also included her own album. It's the Cadillac song. And there's also a picture of Janelle Monáe.
对,所以有的时候你说 Giniel Monnet 是地窖的家族成员之一,我一直不太认可。 对了,就是他太边缘了,但是就是说地窖的人出来做那东西都有点实验性还好,或者有点未来感也好。
It's still interesting, I think. But it's true that it's more on the edge. This one is also... I think the famous songs are enough, I'm tired of listening to them, I'll listen to them again when I'm back. It's actually okay. When I first heard it, everyone seemed to think it was more ordinary. At that time, everyone generally thought that if B-boy left, Android wouldn't work. That's what I thought at that time.
Yes, I also changed my view on Big Boy in 2006. It was after you told me about it. And then I watched the movie I Love Wild. It was so fascinating.
This movie is also very recommended. I like this story very much. It's a very simple story. It's a kind of music movie. Two people fighting. It's a music movie. It's a black man's music movie. You also mentioned that because it was set in the 30s of the last century.
There was a part in the beginning of the movie that was about the period of the "Jingjiuling" era. Yes. Because of the time limitation, and the background of the story, the music didn't have much space to play. I think that's the problem. So it was a bit limited. There are quite a few famous songs. Yes, there are some famous songs.
This movie's Andre is so fucking charming. It's so good. It's like a music movie. It's like a movie about a girl who's been through a lot. Andre is so delicate and delicate. It's like a love story. Damn, a man can do this? It's so good. If you want to be a good man, you should watch Andre. This man is so good.
确实是,所以就是说他现在出来虾皮吹笛子,大家还是愿意理他嘛,就是这个原因啊。 是。 确实是不一样,而且当年我觉得他好像就没有像他这种层次这么丰富的人,还是说唱的特别少。 但是这张也就是说他们组合的终点了,确实是走到头了。
There was another event that year, where CeeLo and Danger Mouse performed Nell's Sparkly. Not good. I think it's not bad, I like it. There's a masterpiece, a super masterpiece, Crazy. Crazy. Yeah, anyway, CeeLo needs someone to help her. Someone to give her a platform, so she can perform. It's a more comfortable situation for her.
I agree with you when you said that this is the beginning of CeeLo's selling image. But I think his selling image actually started selling very early. He's been soloing since he started soloing. It's a little cheap. It's a little cheap to be soloing. It's very cheap. And then, in the era of Goody Mob, especially in the first two albums, it's really different in terms of image.
Yeah, the way he talks and the way he acts are totally different. I was really annoyed by him later on. Especially the first one, "I don't like Crazy" and his most famous song "Fuck You". I really hate that one.
It's so bad. You think this person is pretending to be stupid on purpose. It seems that he gave me the feeling that it seems to be saying that I want to enter a more mainstream market with more white people. Then I seem to deliberately cater to that mainstream aesthetic, but I have to add a little bit of my own little characteristics and little other types. I'm going to pretend to be stupid. I'm going to play like this. That's so annoying.
It really wasted his own voice and his temperament. Yes, it's a sell-out. Yes, it's a sell-out. Yes, it's a very sell-out. So why didn't I see him later? There are so many guests. I saw that there were C-Low guests. I was like, "Hi." I can imagine what this style is like. He does have a status. Everyone respects him. But after this style came out, I really didn't like it. That's right. I understand. Then Zhi Ci, you said it.
地窖家族巔峰結束了。 其實都不能說是巔峰,活躍的。 活躍的。 活躍的。 活躍的。
- Big boy, Lucius.
嗯,那张我觉得还挺棒的。 非常非常棒。 我很喜欢这一张。 我觉得就是,这张其实说实话,好像我第一次听我也没有特别喜欢, 但是我隔了一阵再听,我就说,我为什么不喜欢呢?
主要是看那个节点,节点也挺妙的,刚好 10 年的那个节点嘛。 对,对,对,真的就是说这张之后大家就彻底服了,我操,Big Boy 确实是有东西的劲儿。 是。 不能小看它。
There are many hidden features in the film. I like this one very much. Because he is not bad in his image. He is good in acting as a big brother. Yes, like the little hooligan. He has many famous songs.
The next one is actually pretty good. I think it's hard to come up with a really bad one. This one is obviously the best one out of the three. But the second one... Yes, right. And you can't beat this kind of person and Gucci Man together. It's not bad. It's really awesome. It's just a guru. It's really awesome. It's really flexible.
而且他一直保持着他一个特别 fresh, 特别清新的那种, 有点街头智慧的那么一个形象吧, 我猜。 是,这就是我们水瓶座。 确实有水瓶。 我非常喜欢和 Gucci Man 的那个合作, 太棒了。
Yeah
Here we go. A-Town. C-Post. Cut Master Swift down your throat. Shout out. What's up? Hot damn, ho-ho.
Here we go again Raise up off of mine Quit your elbowing in Slow your roll like your off scissors off Set you out of line cause you all blind So you off neck Leather seats all wet Paint up on the fleek Wood motor sport Jordan's on my toes Did my beat Good steel got my Gucci Coup ma jorda got a Gucci on Flossing on the same track I heard Big and Gucci on Now we remix
It like it's two different packs of Kool-Aid up in the same jug And I'm still the same thug It's for the boys in the blue with G's flamed up I'm in the big body slap framed up, game up On my side, shout it On my side, shout it Hold up, hold up, yeah, through the shoulder Roll up, post up, pop with those up I shout it On my side, shout it
I'm gonna get it off with the soft and the hard. Now it stacks that I stack for the 16 bars. Used to dodge them laws and them stolen cars. Now I'm Escalade sitting high with the stars. To the shine like a star cause my head is in the clouds. And I'm all paid for so I write back on the loud. Project Pat Lyon
And I'm needin' half a pound, cousin house in the bay On the north side of town, man, the streets in me So I can't say I don't miss a dippin' through the hood Fuckin' chickens, but I don't kiss them She wishin' that I take her home, long stick alone I'm givin' back, hit her from the back, back, then I'm gone I'm on my last shot, I'm in love, I'm on my last shot Let's hold up, hold up, careful shoulder Hold up, close the top, let's go, go
Can't be trippin' 'bout no paper 'cause the safe is not so safe The piggy bank got legs and feet and can't get up and walk away, shout-ay With my southern drawl, awkwardly I spray Like the backside of a skunk in the stash house with the pump Pistol grip in my lap at all times in the lag, but
This one is really worth it. It can be compared to Speaker Boss. Yes, yes, yes.
And then the second one, he even collaborated with some electronic bands like Funtogram. I forgot the name.
um
You mentioned the last time the Allcast was released was in 2007 and... Is it? I'm not sure if it is. But they used this name for the last time. It seems so. It seems so. UGK, International Players Anthem.
Whether it's for UGK or Altair, they're all great songs. We mentioned this in the episode of Xiu Sun. It's called "Player". Yes, you must listen to this song. There are some other important things in the middle. For example, Andrew released a children's show. "Class of 3000". It's very strange. I don't know why. Yes, I don't know why he made a cartoon show for children.
And then Kujo and Gennaro Jarrell also released a underground drone. This is also quite strange. Giorgio Armani. Gennaro Jarrell is a very strange person. His most famous work is the one he collaborated with MF Doom, called JJ Doom. He has a lot of his own works. He is similar to a person between Madib and Flying Lotus.
似乎有点那种左翼的 beat 有点实验的那种 还不错 这个人还不错的 但是这张有点一本 就是听完你记不住的东西 听完啥记不住 但也是挺神奇的一个合作 我觉得 体现了地窖家族的实验的本性
And then, as we just mentioned, Sir Lucius. Next, we have the second generation of characters, each with their own solo. Future is really important. Now, when I think back, he was born in Pluto. I didn't know he was one of the members of the underground. Or maybe he was mixed with the underground when he was young. At that time, he was called Meathead.
嗯,我前段时间听那个 Pluto,哎,发现他早期确实还挺说的,挺能说的,非常好。 挺不一样的,还是挺不一样的。 对。 我觉得他 Pluto 是一个起步,然后 Honest 就是挺成熟的了。 对,对。 都挺不错的,就,对,还是挺不一样的,就是,会写歌,会写歌,会写歌。
And this image is also very unique. Now he is the most toxic man in the rap circle. He can be toxic, but also very toxic. And he can also make medicine. There are many images.
And they're all convincing. Yes. Now, when you think about it, in the 2010s, the voice of Atlanta was the best. Since then, Atlanta has become the new rap capital.
I think it started from Future. Almost. Almost, from this period. Of course, there are also Gucci fans in the future, or people like this, TI and so on. I think the more important people are actually Gucci. And then... Oh, right, I have to mention Jay-Z. But I think Jay-Z and these are another group. Right, Jay-Z is...
It's hard to say because it's a trend. There are some backgrounds like that. Gucci is a tri-play motor. And then... But if you think back to the time of 2010 to 2012, Chicago seems to be more popular. There are a lot of drill people. And then it's all made by the 808 Mafia. But maybe from Future, they're all in Atlanta.
嗯嗯嗯,然后一直从 2010 年这整个十年,咱们就是说这 2010 年代这十年当中的话,最重要的一些全都是出自于亚特兰大。 那肯定的,对。 嗯,然后到后来,想想……
Finally, we can talk about the album released by the group in 2017. It's really good. It's really good. It's really touching. Let's end this video with this album. I didn't expect that at the end of 2017, when the trap of Atlanta has become mainstream music, it can represent the hip-hop
the current aesthetic, and let so many producers become mainstream. Organized Noise released such a short but impressive work in 2017. That was shocking. Looking back at this period, it was different from the time when I was moved. I think this year, when I listened to this album, it touched me the most.
I think of the fact that Rico Way has left us. It's too emotional. The music is so good. I like their music. It's unique. There's a song with Joy and 2 Chainz. I feel like they took their low notes and brought them to the new era.
录音创作技术里边,太棒了。 其实我之前也没怎么听过, 我是最近为了准备这节目才听的, 但是确实是好。 可能当年也真的是听不下去, 但是在现在这个时间点, 你再听就觉得是挺宝贵的, 因为也就那么一张嘛。 是。
Right. The stomach is gone.
OK, let's wrap up this episode. This episode is finally over. We've finally finished what we wanted to say about Atlanta. I've been wanting to talk about this for many years, but I don't know how to talk about it. This episode is finally over. At the very beginning of the show, I hoped I could make this episode the most comprehensive episode of the talk about Atlanta in Chinese Internet world. I think I haven't finished it yet.
因为我想说特别特别多 但是几个小时之内是没法说完的 亚特兰大我觉得就光说这个肯定是不行 这期咱们只能说聚焦地窖家族 亚特兰大可能还得再开几期 就是有机会再说吧 我觉得想一期说明白了不太容易 但是就说回到地窖家族 那就是说这个可能是我最喜欢的
东西之一吧 所以说 我也不知道还能说什么 我觉得就是说他们是一种 来自于南方的 真实的 但又是 有一些实验性的 但又特别泥土的东西 就是说这种东西 从 90 年代到 00 年代初吧 可能是他们最辉煌的一段时间 他们创造了一些
and also the music that no one has ever produced before. We reviewed some of their most classic works, including Soulful, ATL, The Criminal, and Stankonia. I think those who are interested can listen to them. I believe they can still inspire you. Especially Goody Mob. I can't say. It's too prominent. It's too unique.
Yeah, I think this one, they didn't do anything similar after that. And they didn't do anything similar themselves either. A lot of things just went through time and that state was gone. And it's really the depth of the content and the amount of information and the angle of the story he's talking about. His bullsh*t is really hard to say.
还是得听。 希望以后能有机会能还跟大家再聊一聊 Goodie Mob 的这个 soul food,说不完,真说不完。 反正这张专辑在我看来就是得听十辈子才能听出的,不是,得听十辈子的这种作品。
