So many memories. First song I heard was 'Late Nite Tip' in a car with way too many subs, high on E in Portland having just arrived that same day to meet people I only knew from online gaming, on our way to Mt. Hood.

Was amazing. Such a long time ago. I'm old now. I will always cherish Three 6.

I blew out a sub on that one.

 

[Order]

Lick My Nuts ia a classic

 

[Rawr Its Ry]

I remember being in middle school or high school and hearing stay fly and Poppin my collar. They weren't that bad, but when I heard late night tip and sippin I was confused as to how this was the same group lol

Somebody gonna get Thier ass kicked

Must listens:

Three Six Mafia - Touched Wit It.

8Ball & MJG Ft. Project Pat & Notorious BIG - Relax & Take Notes
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y_2fxREzBv4

 

[Allforce]

They won a fucking Oscar. Quite an achievement honestly.

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

Growing up in the northeast I never even heard of them before they won an Oscar.

 

[Jakeh111]

Was just talking to someone today about 3 6. I found some producers on soundcloud that are putting out beats just like early 3 6, love it. Probably some 16 year olds in Sweden haha

 

[admiraltaftbar]

Apparently DJ Paul said he was going to start shooting up homes in Memphis because his equipment kept cutting out during the show yesterday. The article described him as Three 6 Mafia's DJ Paul, so I guess at least they're kind of still in the news.

[OG Shaka Zulu]

How did the beef with Bone Thugz happen? Bizzy Bone mentioned his Triple Six rivals on Notorious Thugs and When Thugz Cry.

 

[cat litter]

I know Juice was the best but Koopsta was my favorite. Unique

 

[Syphon Filter]

never heard of them, only that one song called stay fly i believe.

 

[Andrew Korenchkin]

Paging Andrew Korenchkin.

Go to gaf hop and ask.

I'm here!

Because people have terrible taste and aren't privvy to experience one of the best groups ever. They are absolutely one of the best groups from the South.

Also, Three Six Mafia>Outkast

 

[darkwing-buck]

never forget

 

[Breads]

Because it's been two decades since their peak if you exclude the random af Oscar.

 

[Ronin Ray]

Dj Paul and Juicy J are two of the most underrated producers in rap history. There early work is insane and they pioneered sounds before they had a name.

Some of my favorites.

I think it was basically someone saying the other group was stealing there sound but I can't remember so I may be wrong. They dissed bone thugz on songs and skits. They also beefed with pastor troy at one point and everyone that eventually left their record label lol

They thought that they were stealing each others styles. Specifically Infamous and Koopsta of 3-6. It's unclear who started the singing + fast rapping flow

 

[Andrew Korenchkin]

I know Juice was the best but Koopsta was my favorite. Unique

Koopsta>Lord Infamous>Gangsta Boo>Juicy J>DJ Paul>>>>>>>>Crunchy Black

IIRC Bone caught feelings anytime someone tried melodic or speed on their own and didn't collaborate with them. It's been so long I barely remember what it was about.

 

[Discotheque]

fire group. their influence is heard all over soundcloud rappers now.

 

[riotous]

Koopsta>Lord Infamous

Definitely agree with your top 2.

 

[Verder]

good ol days.

and its also 2017. the year of the colorful dreads and anger lyrics

 

[siddx]

Ahead of their time in many ways, they showed that great production and charisma can make you overlook terrible lyrical ability and iffy flow, although they improved over the years.

Most Known Unknown would definitely rank in my top 20 of favorite albums of all time.


UGK is the goat southern group though, followed closely by Geto Boys.

 

[IrishNinja]

No one in Gaf Hop fucks with either artist.

 

[NoblesseOblige]

They're basically horrorcore, which puts them in the same category as ICP.

And their name is 666 Mafia. That 90's edge ain't en vogue these days.

 

[RumblingRosco]

They won a fucking Oscar. Quite an achievement honestly.

Of all their lyrics, "3 6 Mafiaaaa, Academy Award winnersss!" is the one that always sticks to my mind.

 

[siddx]

No one in Gaf Hop fucks with either artist.

Don't listen to this dude,he is the biggest icp/hopsin stan in gafhop. He even as a tattoo of them on his back.

 

[torre_avenue]

Wow, way to alienate our core demographic of Hopsin fans, Logic fans, ICP fans, and Eminem fans and other fans of real rappers.

Which J is the better lyricist, Juicy or Violent?

 

[Apt101]

Because they were just another flash in the pan pop group masquerading as hip hop?

 

[Clydefrog]

They won a fucking Oscar. Quite an achievement honestly.

still astounding

Yup "flash in the pan pop group" album art right here.

[iRAWRasaurus]

Most known unknowns

 

[AndyVirus]

Beat em up beat em up
Break his neck break his neck

repeat x3

 

[Linkura]

You mean the Academy Award-winning 3-6 Mafia? I don't know. But I remember being shocked as a child when they won an Oscar, even after realizing years later it was deserved.

edit: Wait that was in 2006? Feels like I was way younger when that happened. I was 18 apparently...

 

[Black Republican]

still astounding

their speech: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=du_01sqzsck&t=1m0s

i remember reading the forums from other non hiphop sites when they won the oscar


the bitter fucking tears haha

 

[SpecX]

Loved this group growing up and catch myself playing their songs when a song comes to mind.

Always loved this one for some reason, maybe it's that eazy hook.

Clearly you've never listened to anything they've done past Stay Fly, but flash in the pan? Ha ha ha.

 

[Breads]

Because they were just another flash in the pan pop group masquerading as hip hop?

Because nothing says pop like early 90s memphis horror core gangsta rap mix tapes.

 

[Woetyler]

Was just talking to someone today about 3 6. I found some producers on soundcloud that are putting out beats just like early 3 6, love it. Probably some 16 year olds in Sweden haha

There's a duo rap group from nola named the $uicideboy$. Heavily influenced by 3 6, one of the members produces all their stuff and he samples A LOT of 3 6. Definitely worth a listen if you're optimistic.

 

[Lambtron]

L.A. Club Resource reissued the old tape Paranoid Funk by Lil Noid in 2015. If you like old Triple 6 you should definitely check that out. It knocks.

 

[SonicXtreme]

wow i never realized they did the mark henry song
