I remember when Drag Rap was released in the early or mid nineteen eighties. The song was and is a Hip Hop gem. Listen to the lyrics carefully, and you'll hear a strong story about organized gangsters and references to FBI agent Elliot Ness. It's amazing how the song is making more noise now than it did when it originally dropped.

Actually, the Artists that made it explode in New orleans would have been DJ Jimi & T. Tucker, both releasing their own versions of the song "Where they at", using this record as the backbone of each. This was like in 1990..or 91'. Waaaaay before that Mannie Fresh story in 95'. Both versions of the song 'Where they at', are considered the foundational roots of New Orleans Bounce music....along with Cameron Paul's 'Brown Beats'.

When Mannie Fresh placed his very talented touches to it UNLV's - Drag Em From The River was birthed and changed the game up. Mystikal even did an interview on KZbin with Heit The Great saying how fire that track was and still is and called it a timeless classic track. Mannie Fresh even sampled Mystikal and used Mystikal in the background of the entire track. He used Mystikal's voice on a track that's dissing Mystikal now that's truly dope and unheard of. The best was so dope they used it once again on Juvenile's hit single. (Set It Off) with the Mystikal sample and all. That's just a dope ass track and beat.

It's like a 1 or 2 bar loop. And what many southern producers/DJs don't tell you is that they all had to sample from New York rap beats because they didn't have a sound of their own. LMAO!!!

[@drfangaz-pronouncedlikefan4019]

Don't make this into some East Coast vs Down South bullshit dude. Those same producers/ dee jays you're braggin about from New York didn't tell you they sampled a lot of southern artists' soul and blues records to make those 1 or 2 bar loops and sequenced kicks, snares and vocal riffs too, using either an sp12, fairlight or cheap, short seconds sampling rack-mount trigger units.

[@itsrelativ3967]

@@drfangaz-pronouncedlikefan4019 U made a good point. I actually happen to like 3 6 Mafia, Cash Money, No Limit and UGK and the southern 60s/70s soul blues. But guess what. Mantronix showed early hiphop southern producers how to rock the TR-808 & TR-909. Slow your roll.

[@drfangaz-pronouncedlikefan4019]

@@itsrelativ3967 I'd say only for a few, but it was Afrika Bambaataa & Arthur Baker plus The Egyptian Lover from Southern California for the majority. Kurt inspired southern producers to emulate how he used the sp12 turbo for sampling James Brown drum breaks, it's functions like multi-pitching Tr 808 snares and one shot multi leveling. Another thing I'd like to point out. How could anyone outside of NY reproduce the same type of music if all of the deejays kept everything a secret ( 45's and LP were covered on purpose )? Plus the Hip-hop law was "no biting" allowed. So, if anyone did the same thing you got called out for breaking the law in the culture. Technically, anyone after DJ Hollywood or DJ Kool Herc was biting if they collected the same songs to play at the rec or at the block parties. If any producers used the same drum breaks or scratched the same vocals of instrument riffs, technically that's biting. So why would anyone from NY act funny and diss if no one's production or lingo outside of their city sound like theirs? It's a contradiction. No need to slow up. Don't get uppity.

[@itsrelativ3967]

@@drfangaz-pronouncedlikefan4019 The south all had to sound like acts from NYC to get radio play. 2 Live Crew sounded like Run DMC & Rob Base DJ EZ Rock. Geto Boys sounded like Eric & Rakim with some Kool G Rap. New Orleans bounce producers all sounded like Mantronik with a small dose of SoulSonic Force. Kris Kros had to be like EPMD with a little bit of Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre. Other than that, 3 6 Mafia stood out the most. I mean who would of ever thought of pitching samples down and using a 70 to 75 bpm with hypnotic chants, rolled hi-hats, and distorted 808 bass. Yea I may be contradicting myself since 36 Mafia has influenced even what NYC is on today. The point is early on the south had to sound like acts from NYC to get heard. You made your point.
