How do you explain the people who stumble upon rituals and ceremonies in the woods at night or inside of abandoned buildings? Truck full of chopped up body parts etc.. even the lyrics and heavy metal speak on shit like this. Those people partaking in such ritual and ceremonies, are doing this based on beliefs alone or is this “evil magic” a proven working method? I notice how beautiful the natural landscape is there in Tennessee and can’t help but wander, why is it so evil ?

Look up trap metal most of it at least from us black folks is nu metal/trap drill inspired but there is a lot of different sounds in the genre a couple being death/black metal mixed with 808,s high hats and niggas waving guns with a token Ohio metal head lol shits Wild

There will never be an alternative to nigga that's less jarring than nigga. "Neighbors of Destruction" would have also been funny though.

Making art that expresses your disturbing part of your imagination can be beautiful in its own right. And like the video explains it’s also a healthy coping mechanism to let out your stress, worries, doubts, and insecurities. It’s all fun and games to say these albums are cursed. If anything it’s more of a fan’s way of selling you their favorite albums in the sub genre most rap or just music fans would miss out on. All of this is nothing more than us adults basically telling each other a spooky campfire tale.

I've been listening to memphis rap for nearly a decade now and the variety is immense as I still find tapes I haven't heard before.

Memphis is known for Hoodoo (not confused with Voudou). It is the 2nd largest city in North America that makes Voudou paraphernalia. There’s even a store that sold these products on Beale Street, cray cray. There’s definitely a dark cloud 🌧 over my city!!!

hoodoo and voudou are the same thing, it's a linguistic shift responsible for the different pronunciation. It's like how the word water used to have a V sound, but we lost it and it became softer, Water. This goes even further in Germany, where they've also lost the T sound and now it's Wasser, but kept the V.

the song selection in this video is crazy. from silent hill to three six to final fantasy lmfao great work dude

I love the editing you did for the songs man, seriously can tell you put hella effort into it genuinely wish you made full on fan music videos with some of those horror core clips

Checked out that H.O.H. record thanks to this video. Holy hell it goes haaaaaard. Thank you for making this. 🙏 Awesome job!

Bro, thank you. Finally someone shows understanding of the ethnomusicology concept, and does not brings the topic to a dramatized, exaggerated tone. For years this been a fight of mine.

This is incredibly well researched. Thank you.

This video is so good thx so much for taking the time for making it. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

incredibly well researched and assembled into an entertaining video. You had great narration and I thank you for this music history documentary! love memphis its dangerous. but its such a historical and beautiful city

amazing video never seen your channel before. i’m a HUGE fan of all things horror movies books you name it. but Memphis 90’s horrorcore i’ve always loved front to back. when i found Mystic Stylez i never looked back. Children Of The Corn / Graveyard Productions is my fav though. it was absolutely insane listening to Devil Shit as i never heard a female rap like that. let alone a teenager come to find out mike mike she was 17 around the time of release.

The imagination all these old artists had were amazing. I love the descriptiveness of each lyc put out. Its horrific but the artistry is absolute pure art. These guys were all ahead of their time.

I love the tales from the hood clips you put in. Super Underrated movie

Yo this is one of my favorite urban legends, stoked to see someone did a deep dive on it.

I fell down the Memphis underground rap music rabbit hole back in 2008. lil ramsey's "Losin My Mind" was absolute fire. didnt know he sampled R. Kelly till years later as I wasnt into r&b or exposed to much as youngin.

I swear smaller content creators put more work and effort; make less generic, clickbaitie or formulaic videos; are more creative and make better content than bigger content creators e.g. Penguinz0, Sunnyv2, Mr. Breast, and Tuv. I just hate how videos like these get less attending but poorly researched, generic/ clickbait videos with flashy editing like tuv's dominate this site.

11:03 An 8-track tape is a type of audio tape cartridge. I think he got confused as 8 tracks are often referenced in music and the forum commenter probably used it as a name for the cassette. I don't think he meant that there were literally 8 tracks.

9:04 no one refers to chaos magick as "success magick" or "results-based magick". No one. All magick is based on results, saying "results-based magick" is pointless and redundant and does not indicate any specific type of magickal practice.

and yeh Mr. Tinimaine shit is terrifying and hypnotizing. dude could rap fr tho. he definitely could stand up to Memphis's main enemy at the time, Bone Thugs.

not super relevant to this video, but it’s worth noting that chaos magic sigils are v different from the medieval (usually solomonic) symbols for summoning angels and demons. i think of chaos magic as sort of a theory of everything for magic, essentially saying that our will is what creates the magic power (similar to what thelema was getting at imo). medieval european magic, on the other hand, was usually rooted in some kind of religious (christian) idealism, in which the nature of the magic was created and defined by g*d when he created our reality. solomonic magic relies on specific rituals and sigils that were said to be given by g*d (usually thru an angel, a dream, an ancient tablet, secret codes in the bible, etc.), while chaos magic is an approach for creating ur own rituals and sigils

Memphis Rap is the Hiphop equivalent to what Black Metal is to Rock. 🤔🍷🎩
