When ppl say early Cash Money/No Limit, I think 95-96, and NYC was def not rocking to that. Kast and DF was a diff story.
late 90's- early 2000's a few heads were up on it but mostly youngins.
CM/NL had some airplay and club spins cause broads loved shaking to it and we loved watching them, some rappers realized they could expand their market as well, but NYC wasn't too receptive to this wave, especially older heads.
And I don't think too many heads outside of NO was rocking with the 2nd and 3rd tier NL cats who were dropping every week.
For me ... I always thought Wayne was going to be the biggest dude there ... His voice on all the hotboyz track was the set-off ...
Also funny a lot of people STOPPED messing with Wayne around this time as they felt like he was losing his Southern Style. Well I know folks in this area and down south felt that way. Carter 1 Wayne was very different from Younger Wayne. ANd of course, as someone gets older their sound changesBG was better than Wayne up until carter 1
I guess I am more so looking at it from long term POV.Huh? BG and Juvie had the platinum albums and multi platinum singles. They were pushed the hardest. BG went to rehab and jail for some time, so Wayne kind of took his place. Then Juvie and BG left Cash Money and Wayne couldn't leave, even though he begged and cried. Juvie confirmed that. Wayne crying on the phone. Then they put out that trash *** 500 Degreez album. Mad people couldn't even tell Wayne and Turk apart half the time on the Hot Boys records until they really blew up.
I have NEVER heard of anyone confusing those two. Two distinct voicesMad people couldn't even tell Wayne and Turk apart half the time on the Hot Boys records until they really blew up.
Good analysis DC, Wayne was def the young gun that cash money knew they had waiting in the wings to blowI guess I am more so looking at it from long term POV.Huh?

Juve was pushed hard. He was the dude at the moment. When he was on top of things, he was UP THERE.
But with Wayne, it was almost like the Young Dude waiting in the wings for his turn.
I compare it to Aaron Rogers first 2 years in the league. Sure Bret was putting up numbers and they were winning, we all just new what the future held
I never viewed BG as anything other than the people's champ. He never had a shot of making it as the #1.

When that first Hot Boys album came out, mad people couldn't tell. There wasn't mad pics out, videos or anything. No one knew unless you were from the south. They sounded alike at times.
I always laugh when people say they knew Wayne would be a star. When everyone left, Turk's album didn't do as well as they expected. 500 Degreez got ******* on and basically the Big Tymers carried the label. NO ONE was saying during those years Wayne was gonna be a star and save it while the Big Tymers were keeping them afloat. Wayne couldn't even get an album out because there was no hype and Cash Money was looking for new talent because it was getting bad. Those wack *** Squad tapes blew up and then it ended up blowing up, put an album out and Wayne rode the Dipset wave.
Juve was the best. Always was the best rapper and basically carried them ****** back in the day.
