Adults React To 80s, 90s, and 2000s Rap & Hip-Hop | East Vs. West Coast (Tupac, Biggie, Jay-Z)

[@Andrew.W.19]

Y’all did East coast dirty. A west coast channel that played California Love vs Get Money. Why not play Hypnotize or Big Poppa a more iconic Biggie song.

For Biggie, they should've done some of his more famous songs like Hypnotize or Big Poppa vs. California Love. I think it would've been more competitive.

This is a west coast production 😉 Course it’s slanted. I love hip hop from both but you can’t touch east coast. Rakim. Nas. Wu. Big. Treach. Prodigy. No coast touches east coast.

Doesn’t matter whether you’re East Coast vs West Coast but what should be clear is hip hop back in the day is SOOOO much better than the majority of what comes out now

The difference between Daniel's and Jair's reactions are amazing to see!!

Daniel and Jair are literally the black cat and golden retriever duo I love them 😭

[@victorstewartjr.106]

First off, as a Pac fanatic, you know damn well y'all shoulda chose a better Biggie song......where was Big Poppa? Hypnotize? That was a b.s. comparison. Secondly, I loved this format. Let's see South vs Midwest.

When my son was a baby, the only music he would listen to was Matallica, and other heavy metal bands. At times when I would turn it off, he would cry. He hated nursery rhyme songs😂😂. He’s 7 now, and still to this day he loves that kind of music. 😅

“The Message” is the greatest song ever made, to me.

I’m not a huge hip-hop/rap fan but just seeing Jair jamming away whilst Daniel just plays it cool is hilarious 🤣 Also I’m so happy to see Sylvia again, she’s just the sweetest! But poor Jayka didn’t really know any of this music 🥺

[@MyDixieRekt]

The hits goes to West Coast But the Lyricism goes to the East Coast

[@nyfbie]

I love them all but you definitely did East Coast dirty. Could've picked a much better Biggie song. Also no Nas, Mobb Deep, Wutang Clan etc. I hope you do part 2 because you still have a lot of great artists missing

Yeah they really only pick the hiphop songs that white middle aged moms know

Whether you prefer east or west coast I’m just glad the music back in the day is being revisited. A lot of great Hip Hop music is being dismissed just because it’s not current or because it’s OLD. No one’s going to like every artist or song but just expose yourself to it man. Know your history.

East Coast will win most of these battles.

[@jonathanbarb5516]

Yo! Where's Tribe? Wu Tang? Nas? Busta? DMX? And do you extend east coast to the south (OutKast, Goodie Mob, Luda...), or is it just north east? Also West Coast got other gems like The Pharcyde, Souls of Mischief, Del, J5! This episode could have been an hour long

[@bikkiikun]

The picks for each "duel" made sure of the result. Just an example, had it been Big Poppa vs. California Love, the result would have been more mixed. Or, had it been Run DMC's It's Tricky vs. U Can't touch this, the vote would have been more even. Also... does Florida count as "East Coast"? If so, 2 Live Crew would certainly have been a great contender, especially in the categories "Bass" or "Hilariously Offensive". What about DC? DJ Kool's Let me clear my Throat is legendary.
