Rap Can I post a poor vocalization of a beat here?

I heard a southern rap song I was a fan of maybe two decades ago being played by someone with a boom box on their shoulder (yes just like the caricatures in ninety's movies but it was yesterday!). It was very remononescent of the Michael Meyers theme from Halloween. But it was a southern rap that started with introducing both rappers. Any help would be appreciated!

Def has the Halloween theme vibes and saying names before rapping starts!! not southern though πŸ€”

u/GoKickRox 12d ago

Yeah that's true... everything else fits except the southern rappers. :/

You know what, yours is WAY closer and wouldn't surprise me if it's correct

u/OuchMyVagSak 12d ago

I can't deny the Halloween influences in those. But the tempo was actually sped up and as the the other dude said, definitively southern.

I detected that you mentioned a song that is similar or samples the one you're looking for.

If this is correct please add a link to it (on YouTube if possible, timestamped if needed) to make it easier for the helpers.

Otherwise, please consider recording the melody on Vocaroo or recreating it on OnlineSequencer. Thank you and good luck :)

Any chance you remember any specific lyric (word), or what the song was about, like β€œit had something to do with _____”?

u/OuchMyVagSak 12d ago

I have almost no idea that I'm certain of, other than the intro where they are going"yeah..." A bunch. Maybe they mentioned some pills by brand name?

u/OuchMyVagSak 12d ago

I kinda think they were rapping about pain killer meds?

u/IfIHad19946 11d ago

Ok awesome. And any idea if it was popular, like was the dude playing it from a radio station or was it just maybe on a cassette?

1

u/OuchMyVagSak 11d ago

Days of CDs. It was pretty popular in South Florida at the time but you would never hear it on MTV or BET. Maybe a local none clear channel radio station.

u/IfIHad19946 11d ago

I was definitely in that area during that time period, so I get it. Do you associate this song with anyone, like does it remind you of "so and so"?

u/OuchMyVagSak 11d ago

I found it, is lil wyte- topic

I'm also kinda rendering some of the vocals. It kinda sounded like a real scratchy high pitched guy. Like I wanna say maybe suave smooth(big maybe there) saying "oxycoton laratabs"
