    Rich Kidz is exactly it, Futuristic ATL was 2008-2010 in ATL where dudes like J Money, Yung LA, Future started saying they were on the futuristic wave, adopted a sing-song flow & the production was KE On The Track, Nard & B, it was heavily inspired by the times i.e. T-Pain, Wayne, 808s, autotune, futuristic synths & tinny bass

    it went hand in hand with late 00s Gucci & OJ who were doing the "super fruity crazy swag" style, which just meant they were having fun with their flow & content just like Futuristic ATL, and ever so slightly older era rappers like Gorilla Zoe were adapting their sound to Futuristic ATL

    Futuristic ATL was a highly lowkey huge beef era too, I think there was street s*** going over who invented the flows & sounds between J Money, Yung LA, Future & others despite the overtly "happy" sound

    which is something hyperpop will never get to if these kids start beefing over biting one another

    yeah like I said I may be being a bit hyperbolic and unfair with the title but its just an interesting sonic connection I've noticed that doesn't get talked about much

    Yeah I’m familiar with bop (not extensively) but I never made the connection, good find.

    These remixes are so hard tbh

    Honestly I probably listen to music either sped up or chopped and screwed half the time, regular speed just don’t hit the same.

    I’ve never listened to much of the FLA sped up stuff beyond the remixes SGP would do, where should I get started with that scene?

    they must have closed down the soundcloud but this youtube channel has a s*** ton going back to like 2012-13.

    outside of that channel there aren't any prominent djs i know of equivalent to Screw, OG Ron C, Candlestick, or Slim K that I know of, could be because I'm not local or it could just be less centralized because there's no editing besides speeding the song up.

    see this thread

    Again I think a lot of it is cool but Chicago needs its flowers for doing very similar s*** way in advance

    Shame Chicago scenes always get taken and ran with by completely disparate groups of people and Chicago never gets its credit

    UK did it with the juke/footwork scene, house music, and Drill to some extent (i get UK and Chicago drill way different but you know what I mean)

    i think its fair to say London and Chicago have influenced eachother
