Hyphy is cutting edge and will be revisited with great success in the future


It is the modern day template for fun rap that isn’t about killing people and I had sex with your wife and not in those words

Still resonates culturally today and is why Bay Area people are way better and approachable than people from other regions

like others already mentioned, there was no Hyphy era

outside of some bay artist being featured on the cover of XXL or the Source and a few videos, the shyt never went anywhere and just fizzled

Crunk had a stranglehold on the game and Texas was starting to look like they was about to takeover the game from ATL, but something happened, Crunk just continued until Jeezy, T.I. and Gucci locked it down then Souljah Boy and that whole snap /ringtone era thano dusted everything and had any self respecting hip hop fan in their feelings, then there was the blog era with all of the alternative emo outside the box , fro-hawk and skinny jean nikkas rappin about spaceships and their emotions and shyt....

After a while hiphop coalesced until drill came along

Hypy never had a phase, that was a breief flash in the pan, a misfire

I likes the era. The federation was a dope group to me ,plus living on the west coast at the time the clubs was crazy back then. It wasn't an era, but it was a movement
