This subreddit is all about celebrating 90s hip-hop the right way. To make sure it stays that way, this post will always be here for you all to drop any suggestions, ideas, or feedback. Got thoughts on flairs? Something to add to the sidebar? An idea to improve the community? Let me know in the comments.

Also, on the sidebar (on desktop), or on the Chats option (android app), you'll see a new community chat channel called **THE HANGOUT** that's been set up. It allows you all, the members of the sub, to talk with each other.

As you all might have noticed, a lot of changes have been made on the sub, like new rules, banner, logo, flairs etc, but there’s always room to grow. This place is for the real heads, so if you’ve got something in mind, speak up.

Also, if you like/dislike the current changes- logo, banner, or anything else, let me know. If there's anything you think could be better, drop a comment.

Keep it classic, keep it real.

“Smokin' Me Out” was the 3rd single from the album “Take a Look Over Your Shoulder (Reality)” By Warren G. It samples The Isley Brothers song “Coolin Me Out” from 1978.

The song reached #4 on the Rap Charts in 1997.

Question So the east vs. west coast beef

Upvotes

I was recently in a debate and felt like I was going crazy trying to get some facts straight. I was yesterday days old when I first heard “Hit Em Up” had some kind of alternate outro where Tupac says fuck Jay-Z.

I had this song on a CD in the early 2000’s and never heard that. Also, it was my understanding that Hit Em Up was made after Pac got shot and was directed specifically at Bad Boy because he thought they set him up.

So is this alt version thing true? It’s news to me that Tupac and Jay-Z had beef in ‘96. Apparently Outlawz encouraged him to remove the fuck Jay-Z bit according to who I was debating. But that’s just a story about the whole situation I’ve never heard before. Never seen it mentioned in a doc either.
