lol this was your prototypical i'm-so-inspired-by-chasing-success generic big stadium club anthem trope where nikkas would often point to the sky while rappin. well, first you point at the camera while shifting your weight from foot to foot rocking back and forth left to right over & over again, and then you point to the sky. all born out of the WOAT gentrification rap era that lasted from 2008-2015

skylar grey, matthew santos, ash riser, mr. hudson, & charlie puth on hip hop hooks b :scusthov:high key skylar grey was like the new nate dogg :hhh:

I would say Lil Zane, Ja Rule, Gorilla Zoe and Yung Joc

Zane didn't rap about shyt and was doing a pac imitation, you could say the same for Ja

Zoe and Joc were generic, ATL trap rappers but didn't seem believable and didn't have a movement behind them.

now that you say that, when he was biting Big Sean's flow Drake was actually very generic.

eminem @3:25-3:27 rockin from foot to foot in front of front of dre's dead body :deadmanny: skylar grey on the hook as a ghost :deadmanny:

50 cent & adam levine WHYYYYY :laff:

This video makes me realize how much Eminem has aged. In the Recovery days, he looked reborn and like a college kid with a bass-heavy voice. Now, he looks and sounds like the hip hop version of Dan Harmon. :mjlol:

Point at the sky and at the camera, but you forgot the parts where they would always throw in a lil salute either halfway through or at the very end of the video and them shyts would look exactly like this:

And half the time, they’ll do it while rocking a big ass snapback or fitted brim lmao

what ever happened to Kid INK?

I remember seeing him live opening for TDE back during Kendrick's rise before he was rocking full stadiums. I was glad i got to see Kendrick on a smaller stage but Kid Ink's performance def stuck out like a sore thumb because he just didnt fit at all.

lol oh shyt WORD that salute on the snapback brim. everybody was saluting b. :deadmanny: then spread your legs with your arms at your side pointing at invisible objects while looking away from the camera preferably at the floor because you're disinterested in everything in the room that isn't as swaggy as you are.... then you look up at some point & you nod your head vigorously up and down at 95-105bpm sometimes even if there is no music playing because your swag is your own personal theme music

head nod visual reference = lil mama & hov at the vma's as she storms the stage and o'shea jackson jr. imposed it on his ice cube character in straight outta compton during the fukk the police performance right before nwa got arrested
