House Music...WILL SET YOU FREE!!!!!!!

[philmonroe]

I like all of this music even though I don't know anybody in the different genres. I just listen to my DI Radio app and just listen to different stuff all the time.

@*L*E*G*A*C*Y* i never knew the name of this genre, but my homeboy from Jerz put me on this shyt, i been bumpin it the last week. Its crazy, the DJ from our radio station in Mobile, 93blx, would always play this stuff from 11-12, but we never understood it. I went to a house party in Trenton, and I fell in love with this music.

props.


i heard a lot of this music on the radio late nights as a kid growing up in NJ but i always assumed it was r&b

used to hate on house and EDM and didn't even realize i liked it

can anyone point me to some of that soulful house music?

dope thread, house music and rap music were on the same level in a lot of cities until the 90s when the crowds differentiated, rap became commercialized and more gangsta and house went to europe became techno and standard music at gay clubs but both house and rap have the same black origins

there was even an early "hip hop house" movement, somebody posted the jungle brothers joint there was also a latifah song, there were other ones that went into obscurity since the hip house movement never went commercial



although i think de la soul kinda signaled the separation of the rap and house (and maybe even the ending of native tongues since it can be interpreted as a diss to the jungle brothers who had the biggest "hip house" song) with this song


some other good house artists

ten city



i would say colonel abrams was more of a house/freestyle artist, but just throwing him in here just FYI



this youtube DJ is dope, he has some good house mixes and literally every other kind of music

I used to love house music. So did the entire hood....then Madonna came out with Vogue and a certain people were let in and we were like "nahhhh....not anymore."

Pretty sure it started in their clubs breh...

Had to rep this. It's sad that House and Techno aren't recognized as black musical innovations.

Dude, I get so heated about this. Its one of the reasons the over popularity of rap hurt the other Black genres..now house is seen as a world music rather than a Black music. At least South Africans are into it heavy and making good good music. Black Americans need to give other music a chance..right now, Id rather Dj house than hip hop cause its just fresher and cooler, beats are insane and theres a greater chance to make it than with rap.

Euro cac house is so soulless and sterile. It frustrates me because this music obviously has commercial viability (Euro cacs making $$$), but it never picked up as you said because Hip Hop totally overshadowed it. I don't blame Hip Hop musicians though, I blame MTV and their ilk for ignoring the movement and keeping it niche.

South African house . These brothers brought soul back into House
