Episode 141: BIRD PROTOCOL's Hip-Hop Pool Party
What’s good, homies? Every few months, we release a themed playlist filled with bangers for everyone to enjoy. Since it is summer and the sun is shining, we’ve selected 16 certified rap heaters from the late 90s through the aughts to keep the vibes going, pump up the volume, and get you feeling right. Let the Bird Boys keep the speakers knocking at your next summer pool party or backyard kickback.
Now, these are NOT what we consider the best rap songs of that era (though some could definitely be in the conversation), nor did we try to cover everything because that would be a long playlist and even longer episode. So, just so we’re clear - we curated a selection of songs that we love from that era because we felt like they would hit just right. No qualitative judgement here. We know we could have added twenty more. Nonetheless, we think we did a pretty bang-up job. So, press play and lean back, lean back, lean back, lean back.
In this episode, we break down our selections by giving some context for each of the artists and tracks, explaining why we picked each song. and discussing where they intersect in the history of rap and their legacy. When you press play on the playlist, you’ll hear some expected and unexpected tracks from artists like Lil Wayne, Jay Z, Eminem, 50 Cent, Ludacris, Nelly, Dr. Dre and Snoop, Clipse, Three Six Mafia, T.I., Cam’ron, Too $hort, and many more. We tried to cover all sides of the map from west to east to south and everything in between. Plus, we made sure to include some of our honourable mentions and the tracks that didn’t make the cut for those who want to hear more. We know there are some omissions and that this list could be made a hundred different ways so, once you’ve listened to our version, add your favourites to it and send us YOUR version.
We sincerely hope you enjoy this episode and the accompanying playlist. Let us know how it sounds at your next kickback. We’ll be back in two weeks.
