The Definitive Ranking of the Best Hip Hop Dance Crazes

Image
From the Macarena to the Hand Jive to the Hustle dance crazes have always been prevalent in music. However no genre is as closely linked to dance as hip hop. I have done extensive research on this topic (I know that sounds ridiculous) as I wrote an academic essay in 2009 for my Pop Culture class opposing the thought that hip hop dance music is killing the genre. I actually received an -A. See my last post to check out that paper. Recently the dab reached a fever pitch with Cam Newton reaching the Super Bowl and in result caused everyone to dab. We saw dabs from everybody including Hilary Clinton, Bill Gates and Roger Goodell. Since that dab has become a recent pop culture phenomena, I've decided look back and rank the best hip hop dance crazes since the 2000s. So you won't see any throwback dances like Humpty Dance, Cha Cha Slide or The Bird on this list. Ranking Criteria Hypeness (new word I've decided to create)- How hype does this dance make the dancer and aud...

What's better I Need a Girl Part 1 or Part 2?

Image
In the year 2001 P Diddy released the two-part song I Need a Girl. Both songs have a clear distinct sound while being equally fire. Below I will do my best to articulate what separates the two parts of I Need a Girl and which is better. Part 1 P Diddy featuring Usher and Loon A slow pure r&b track with very little bass. Usher kills this song, he even sings over himself in the chorus. Part 2  P. Diddy featuring Loon, Ginuwine & Mario Winans For all you young kids out there this is what a true remix or part two looks like. Using the same theme/melody but flipping it to creating a new song. This part features more an of a hip hop vibe with verses and an r&B chorus. Who can forget Diddy's classic "take that, take that" What part of I Need a Girl is better? In my humble opinion, it has to be part 2. The combination of the bounce in the bass and melody drop will make anyone lose it. You also get what is most likely P Diddy's best l...

Rave.DJ Fire Mixes and Mashups

For months I've had random thoughts while bored in quarantine about songs I would mashup and how I would transition from song to song for various playlists. So one night I tried various ways to try and make these mixes I was thinking about. From Garageband to weird online software I couldn't figure out how to make my ideas turn into reality. Then upon numerous Google searches, I found rave.dj a free website where you can copy and paste two songs to mash them up or put in 10 songs to make your own smooth transition mix.
