facts

im a savage. classy, bougie, ratchet

Yeah I saw that post too

At least ringtone rap had people making music

In what sense

You just need a 5 sec quotable for the song to pop off

Toosie Slide out now

i will argue some songs getting popular off tik tok originally like savage or no idea are great

Ringtone, mumble & tik tok rap eras are literally the same just different platforms

Tik tok is Chinese government spy ware

Ringtone tap was better

next generation the kids will say tik tok rap was better than whatever is popular again

Good point lol

Roses out now

People used to say In Da Club was ringtone rap. Same way they saying Toosie Slide is just tik tok music.

They try to knock great records with wack narratives cus they haters.

brother in da club was way before ringtone era

you have time to delete i will too hurry brother

too late

Eventually billboard needs to include Tik tok plays as part of measuring the hot 100, s*** is way too big an influence to just neglect now

distrokid already sends people's music to tiktok as if tiktok was spotify/apple music etc.

Then count ig posts too

No one ever f***ing said this

Damn, now if I hear a grown ass nigga have “east” as his ringtone, imma lose it

It was the catalyst. I remember my uncle had the blue motorola with the loud speakers. Everyone and their mom had In Da Club as their ring tone

You were swimming in your daddy nut sack when in da club dropped bro

I know my history

No, you don't know your history you f***ing moron. In Da Club was the #1 selling ringtone and won a billboard award for it in 2014, the first time they ever started following those sales, but the song dropped January 2013 before truetones were even selling. It was just still insanely popular when phones switched from miditunes to truetones. The RIAA didn't even start awarding sales certs until 2006. No one ever said "Oh In Da Club was made so you could put it as a ringtone." Mfers were still listening to 8bit renditions of songs when In Da Club first dropped.
