yall are butthurt
its about songs that a bunch of goons vocally rally around
there are only like 7 goons so if 3 or more goons make a big deal about a track, start a new thread about it, plug it in various venues ... prob goon anthem
whiney suggested '9x outta 10' and 'trap going ham.' the former i can see even tho it wasnt my fav off the lp it was rev's enthusiastic choice & lots of ppl seemed to agree, more than any other anyway. the latter makes me rmde but i guess it would be up to those who liked it more to determine if im just against the grain on that one
― D-40, Tuesday, 24 May 2011 19:13 (twelve years ago) link
'watch my feet' is a good one
i remember ethan was into that mims 'this is why im hot' joint & there was enthusiasm at the time but i wonder if it has waned at all

no on 'trap me goin ham'

is there even any point to including big mainstream hits like "wipe me down"
― Waluigi Weingoomba (some dude), Tuesday, 24 May 2011 19:43 (twelve years ago) link
how high did that chart on billboard? i remember that being a rap hit only
not that im sure i understand why that would disqualify it anyway
― D-40, Tuesday, 24 May 2011 19:44 (twelve years ago) link
idk it has its own thread -- I think that's good enough
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 24 May 2011 19:49 (twelve years ago) link
something like "what you know" or "throw some d's' would be 'too big" tho imo

ill grab me ham
whiney emailed me to insist trap going ham is an anthem lol
ill consider it if one other goon cru person steps up to rep for it itt
― D-40, Tuesday, 24 May 2011 19:51 (twelve years ago) link
"Wipe Me Down" got in the top 10 of the R&B chart, got heavy rotation on every urban station in the country = pretty mainstream
― Waluigi Weingoomba (some dude), Tuesday, 24 May 2011 19:53 (twelve years ago) link
it was a rap radio hit that didnt cross over. doesnt get club play in non-rap clubs, or on pop radio -- successful rap songs are perfectly legit for this thread
― D-40, Tuesday, 24 May 2011 19:55 (twelve years ago) link
it was top 40 on hot 100 too. i mean it doesn't matter, i obviously don't understand this exercise, i'm just saying.
― Waluigi Weingoomba (some dude), Tuesday, 24 May 2011 19:58 (twelve years ago) link

does kreayshawn have a shot at this
2011 goon anthem "Water in the Bo"
Based goon anthem "The Age of Information"
― skot gigz - moombah pimpin' (The Reverend), Tuesday, 24 May 2011 20:08 (twelve years ago) link
As far as Waka goes, "Hard in da Paint" totally qualifies on the "Wipe Me Down" non-crossover clause.
― skot gigz - moombah pimpin' (The Reverend), Tuesday, 24 May 2011 20:10 (twelve years ago) link
more than 'love them gun sounds' or 'grove st party'?
i dunno i think he has too many

his album is like, official goon album
― D-40, Tuesday, 24 May 2011 20:19 (twelve years ago) link
'water in the bo' is dope but idk doesnt have that totalizing pop appeal the rest of these do
age of info feels like it relates somehow, not sure id call it an anthem as much as the spirit animal of the entire project

I think more importantly "wipe me down" wasn't a critical crossover a la the other two songs I mentioned
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 24 May 2011 20:52 (twelve years ago) link
"shoulder lean" prob is -- we do have a lyrics thread for it
any snap songs? I wasn't around then but that is the genesis of rolling rap threads right?

good qn
swag surfin? would say watcha wan do is the blaqkout goon anthem, least it feels that way to me, also helped by swag me out lets flyyyYYYYY. young ready - 1 rubber is a personal fav & was on deej's mix and imo ranks among toot it & boot it, lots of ppl seemed to like andre nickatina ft. jacka - middle name is crime. also it even tho it has prob transcended goon anthem status lest we forget lemme smang it was once just a stray bullet in the barrage of deej youtubes. i like the idea of not focusing on stuff that is too heavily blogged out like trap goin ham or even ice cream paintjob (tho that 1 to a lesser extent than the former)

"shoulder lean" definitely
i'd want to say "ice cream paint job"

it's ok i just feel like the "word association based on old rap star/crew" hook formula is really stale by now and there's been a bunch of Cash Money-themed one (Bankroll Fresh "Hot Boy," Jacquees "Like Baby" etc)
― apple bottom steen, HOOS with the fur (some dude), Tuesday, 26 January 2016 00:38 (eight years ago) link
hmm, well i guess if there are 3 of a thing that's enough to act bored by it ;-)
idk though i feel like rap songs reference lines from classic songs all the time it would never have even occurred to me to be annoyed by it
― flopson, Tuesday, 26 January 2016 01:28 (eight years ago) link
no there are literally a million songs following that Rick Ross "MC Hammer" template, the Cash Money ones are just a plentiful subgenre
― apple bottom steen, HOOS with the fur (some dude), Tuesday, 26 January 2016 01:33 (eight years ago) link
the thing about 'big tymin' is, 1) its actually good which was the problem w/ 'hot boy', and 2) it actually captures the abstract spiritual vibe of classic big tymers....also its the only song i know of that's about the big tymers, the hot boys and "like baby" aren't really the same thing
― Listen to my homeboy Fantano (D-40), Tuesday, 26 January 2016 04:36 (eight years ago) link
