I was born in 2004, so I didn't get into brokencyde/crunkcore but I definitely feel like yes they did pave the way for emo SoundCloud rappers. Also I feel like crunkcore also kind of paved the way for hyperpop. EDIT: Now that I think about it, hyperpop feels like gen z version/take on crunkcore.

I never thought I'd say this, but Brokencyde really were ahead of their time.

I was never a screamo-crunk-core fan OR a new wave emo-rap fan, but then again I've gotten big into Eskimo Callboy of late and, yeah there's a definite lineage between the two sonically.

Here because of Crunkcore and scene kid nostalgia. Going to be supporting Brokencyde to the end now. 💜💙💚💛🧡❤️ I predicted the second rise of Crunkcore earlier this year and continue to be proven right with the Millionaires gaining traction from TikTok. It's only a matter of time before the whole scene (haha) blooms once again. Now with all the bad apples gone (*cough* BOTDF and Jeffree Star *cough*), I hope the good new days can be just about the music and fun, without the drama. God-forbid, it's not a repeat of the old Gen Z scene I grew up in with obsessive fangirls being literal children with abandonment issues, who were also emotionally neglected as kids with no support system.

Born and raised in ABQ, NM. Watched this because I was feeling super nostalgic since I came out of scene kid retirement to see them live last night. No matter what anyone says, they absolutely are revolutionary in the scene and put us on the map, not just for crunkcore but for all the alt kids back then. To me, there was no rise and fall here in abq because they’re our hometown heroes. Last night was just as wild as when I saw them back in 08 and 09, so even in 2024 abq hometown fans go just as hard as we did back when we had a top 8 and wore 5 studded belts.

You’re like a mid to late 2000s music historian. I miss myspace culture it was such a wacky time. The closest the gen z’ers got was the underground soundcloud scene a few years ago; which i also dig! Its all pretty cool! Love your stuff!

[@Kyle4OH8]

Myspace was a fun time I was lucky to have been a teenager during thoese times.

The wispy mustache x Every Time I Die hat combination is really hitting close to home.......

[@The_Lisperer]

I listened to them in middle school and high school, I wish I could have seen them live.

[@TheCaptainjbeard]

Great vid bro!! Still love Brokencyde, always gotta come back and respect pioneers

[@JohnyRedcrow]

12 years ago people said this but .. now there is much awful

[@Lou_Mavs]

Eh. It wasn’t my thing. Then again, I was 28 when they came out, so I couldn’t relate to it, but I remember them being around and prominent on MySpace. And I worked at MTV when they were on TRL (this video reminds me of that, so I wanted to make sure I didn’t suffer some kind of Mandela effect). They had a fan base, so good for them. Looking back, I can see the humor in it and say it worked out for them. Great episode. 🤘

Your channel makes me feel nostalgia from something i was never involved in

[@penguinfromtheholy]

That original album with Taking Lyfe From Me was dope, I remember that being the shit in middle School

[@UnwrittenSpade]

Dude suburban noize has swollen members, opm, mix mob, Mickey Avalon, hed pe, jada pinket smiths band Wicked Wisdom, phunk junkeez, authority zero, sen dog of cypress hill, and many many more great bands. So cool u brought it up

[@poemonroe8848]

They were really good dudes. They helped promote alot of bands, especially mine at the time.

[@envisionvlog8843]

I remember Brokencyde and was the one in high school that introduced it to my friends.

[@ravenm6443]

I only know of Brokencyde for Freaxxx. I genuinely find it so ridiculous, hilarious and weird but I still find myself periodically listening to it because I find it amusing. There’s a line in that song, where I just can’t get passed how impossible a certain action would be 😂 But it’s clear they were having fun. I can’t say it’s not a fun song, just way tf out there, but it is catchy af 😂

[@Ezra4224]

2drunk 2drive is my fave song of theirs for absolutely no reason

[@aprioris.knowledge2765]

Damn you released this at a weird time when the blood in the dance floor shit popping off again

[@Ezra-gx2oq]

I was a hugeee Brokencyde fan. I had their CDs and a tee shirt. Also made fanart. I listened to them all the time in middle school.

[@thebunnybun]

I used to listen to these guys all the time actually. I cant really stand it these days but oh man when i was in high school, it was a different time for sure. Love the video man blast from the past.

[@nikfiendluvr666]

I picked up BrokenCyde's full length album on CD from my local record store for shits and gigs, it was marked down from 5 dollars to 2. I put it on when we get home, no joke it gave me a headache and made my partner dissociate. It's like, dangerously bad lol. The mixes on that full-length are kind of weird anyway though, I actually like the OG versions of Freaxxx and Schizophrenia, but the way they're mixed or remastered on the album sounds like trash. So many layers of noise on top of one another. It's powerful in its ability to put a person off.
