The Wayans Bros DMX Slippin' Beat??

[tremonthustler1]

In hindsight their dollar value interpolations are why the show is still on the air without all the red tape.

OMG this is worse than how BET is now handling the reruns of New York Undercover and replacing well know songs with strange lesser known songs.

I'm happy it's on the air again, but you have no idea how bummed out I was expecting to hear Jon B's version of My Cherie Amour only for them to scrap out his Natalie's performance entirely.

and then the episode where the department was investigated for killing Danny Up, the intro sounded like a straight up G-Unit 2000s style track.


If we knew then what we know now, someone would have recorded all these shows and kept them in pristine condition in case the OG versions get altered forever.

The actual theme song to the show was fire. Used to watch this all the time.

think omar epps produced think

 

[FunkDoc1112]

Them taking away Electric Relaxation intro is a fukkin SIN imo.

They used a song with fukkin' auto-tune for a show from 1995

Surely they had a generic boom bap track in the sound library

Bro I Shazam that shyt, the song came out in 2015. shyt makes no damn sense.

TVOne handled the show better back in 2011. With all the original songs and live performances.

 

[Buckeye Fever]

They did "Let's Play House" too

They did "Let's Play House" too

Yup, that was a pretty frequent one the last two seasons

[BruhMayne]

My favorite was when they had a violinist play bow down and they rapped over it lol

Who was on the drums

Now Im tryna think of some other ones. I know they remade Tha Crossroads on the episode Marlon wish he was never born.


I should google "who made the wayans bros beats?"

 

[The Intergalactic Koala]

This happity up beat ass version of Slippin though.

But on the real, Wayans Bros had some low key bangers throughout the show . Even Omar Epps lace a beat for the intro.

 

[letti cook]

i remember they flipped both Phat Rabbit and Lobster & Shrimp by Timbaland in the same episode...young me hit that

A lot of these episodes had the actual music originally but streaming and expired licenses have made it virtually impossible to keep them so you’ll often here edited remakes or completely different scores altogether


Biggest example is everybody hates Chris. They used a lot of oldies on the show that’s been replaced with placeholders by Hulu and ‘nem

 

[BantuKnotz99]

Somebody please make a thread about the fake instrumentals they used to use in TV shows and commercials

I believe MadTv used biggies warning instrumental in their show as well...or atleast an rendition

Well, all the music that was originally there is in tact on syndication (cable reruns, etc); those bootleg remakes were ALWAYS on the soundtrack as I still have yet to watch Wayans Bros on HBO Max. The only times you'd ever hear the actual songs is if they were intentionally played during a scene (IE the Busta performance) and those are still in tact on cable. Otherwise the transitional songs were always just the remakes. The reason songs disappear on streaming but not cable reruns is because streaming is technically home video and the rights work completely differently in that area, as they'd have to pay royalties.

You watch Everybody Hates Chris on cable, all the music is there but on streaming a lot of it gets replaced. Or with the Chapelle's Show, on Comedy Central reruns all the music performances are still there but on HBO Max and Netflix you only get the ones from folks in Dave's inner circle that he probably didn't have to clear (Native Tongues/Soulquarian cats)

Yep, appreciate the clarification
