Locksmith is considered one of the best lyricists to ever come out of the Bay Area. Growing up in Richmond, he co-founded the group The Frontline in the late 90s. Frontline blew up with the help of E-A-Ski's production and landed a record deal. This propelled them to the forefront of what would be termed "The New Bay," and eventually the Hyphy Movement. Locksmith also sharpened his reputation as a battle rapper, participating in freestyle battles against other local legends like Mistah FAB and Clyde Carson. After his groupmate Left put music to the side to pursue a career in education at UC Berkeley, Lock traveled to New York to move his solo career forward. Along the way he put out projects with Dame Dash and Ski Beatz and broke out of the regional Bay Area circuit to become an internationally respected MC. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/historyofthebay/support
The fiercely independent nature of the Bay Area music scene has proven to have both positive and adverse effects on the creativity and overall commercial success of the Hyphy Movement. In episode 5 of Remember the Time, titled, Is Hyphy Dead?, host Branden LSK speaks with artists and label executives about why the movement was somewhat short-lived—from the politics of competing radio stations to other regions capitalizing on the hyphy sound, and thus diluting its aural authenticity. Expect to hear from Mistah F.A.B., Too $hort, LaRussell, hip-hop journalist, Eric Arnold; No Vultures podcast host, Lord Rab and more.
Although E-40 is the mainstream face of the Hyphy Movement, Northern California residents view another rapper as the anchor of Hyphy. He went by Mac Dre. This episode of Remember the Time breaks down the larger-than-life persona of the late rapper—from his pre-and-post incarceration sound to his Thizz Entertainment empire.Host Branden LSK speaks with rapper LaRussell about Mac Dre's cultural impact and speaks with Steph Curry about his forthcoming documentary on the artist. Expect to hear from Hyphy pioneer E-40; rapper, Keak Da Sneak; hip-hop consultant, Wendy Day; radio personality, Big Von; rapper Mistah F.A.B, producer Droop-E and more.
The Bay Area dances a little different. More than music, Hyphy is described as a movement for a reason: it involved one's mind, body and soul. Episode 3: Taking Up Room on the Floor explores the dance culture of the bay area that helped visualize the Hyphy Movement. Born from the 1960s and 1970s funk scene in Oakland, the free-flowing and hard-hitting dance style known as Boogaloo has evolved into styles like pop and locking and T.U.R.F. dancing, which is still popular in the Bay Area to this day. With breaking (aka break dancing) entering the Olympics in 2024 and events like Red Bull Dance Your Style, T.U.R.F. dancing has kept a visual element of the Hyphy Movement-era alive. Expect to hear from Too $hort, Dregs One, Ice Cold 3000 of the Turfeinz crew, Johnny5 of TurfInc, Thizz Nation photographer D-Ray, organizers from the community space Youth Uprising, and more.For more Hyphy music, check out the playlist curated by host Branden LSK.
The word hyphy—short for hyperactive—was first uttered on a song by Oakland rapper Keak Da Sneak. Initially, the slang term didn't mean what it came to represent: that the party was over the top or someone was being extra. As it happens with most slang words, it took on a meaning of its own once the masses got ahold of it. This episode of Remember the Time breaks down the sound and culture that preceded hyphy, from the New Bay sound that led up to the Hyphy Movement, to the songs that came to define the Hyphy sound.Expect to hear from E-40, Keak Da Sneak, Too $hort, DJ Juice, P-Lo, Clyde Carson of the Team, Sean Kennedy of Moses Music, DJ Big Von, and more.Want more Hyphy music?

Introducing Remember the Time: The Hyphy Movement.In the mid-2000's a sound emerged out of the Bay Area that would overtake the sonic landscape of hip-hop for a brief but impactful period showcasing not only the music, but also the overall culture of the Bay Area. A culture that changed the way the hip-hop nation danced, dressed, spoke, and even drove their cars. The Lil Jon produced, E-40 helmed smash “Tell Me When to Go” accurately summed up the surface of the Hyphy movement as a music and culture, but the origin is much deeper. Without the independent nature of the Bay Area, Hyphy could have never existed. Here, we take a deep dive into a subgenre, a movement, a culture that though short lived, still permeates across the globe to this very day, influencing some of today's top performers.

D-Ray is a photographer who has taken some of the most legendary and well-recognized pictures in Bay Area rap history. Picking up photography as a hobby, she soon transitioned into doing shoots for magazines and local rappers. This quickly led to her becoming the official photographer for Mac Dre's Thizz Nation, which put her in perfect position to capture the Hyphy Movement as it exploded in the early 2000s. D-Ray soon took her work to Ozone Magazine where she became the official west coast editor and used her platform to promote underground artists from the Bay. Since then, she has overcome serious illness, doors being closed on her, and negativity in the music scene to continue documenting the culture. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/historyofthebay/support

Rocky Rivera is a rapper, journalist, and activist from San Francisco. After her family immigrated from the Philippines, she became immersed in hip-hop culture and grassroots community education.

After auditioning for an MTV reality show, she was given the opportunity to try out for a contributing editor position at Rolling Stone Magazine, which she won.

As a rapper, she expresses her unique voice on the mic and developed an avid fan base that supports her via Patreon. Rocky is a member of the Beatrock Music collective along with her partner Bambu, and she also shares relationship advice for creative couples. She has recently released her first book "Snakeskin" and is currently working on new music. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/historyofthebay/support
I had been thinking of how I wanted to do episode 50. I had to do something huge. Something monumental. So I invited an old friend, fresh outta jail to come join me. Sounds typical for me? Well this old friend is famous. Or actually INFAMOUS. She was sentenced to 3 years and 4 months in state prison for embezzling $650,000. So we talk about all her trials and tribulations leading up to her case and stint behind bars. We don't stop there she's in the process of writing two books. We also talk about some politics *barf* and our old days riding around Oakland during the Hyphy Movement.

Traxamillion, born Sultan Banks, was a producer from San Jose who helped define the Bay Area's sound and propelled the Hyphy Movement to the national stage. If there's a Bay Area hip-hop anthem you love, whether it's Sideshow, Super Hyphy or San Francisco Anthem, Traxamillion had his fingerprints on it. Traxamillion died on Jan. 2 in Santa Clara from a rare form of cancer at the age of 42. So today, we remember his legacy on the hyphy movement, the Bay Area, and local artists.

In 2006, when music producer Trackademicks remixed the smash hit by E-40 and Keak Da Sneak, "Tell Me When To Go," he created a cultural jewel that sent waves throughout the Yay. The remix took a seminal song from the Hyphy Movement, added a unique wrinkle, and then proceeded to make your face melt. The track could be heard at pep rallies in the valley, in nightclubs in San Francisco and blasting out of the front grill speakers of Chevy vans as they smashed through Deep East Oakland. Trackademicks, a half-Black and half-Filipino guy who was raised in Alameda, looks at his own lineage and says remixing things is in his DNA, literally. It was already in the music too, the Hyphy movement has its own history of mixing genres, which allowed it to birth something unique in The Bay. Now, as a number of rappers (including Trackademicks) make music that harkens back to that era, we thought it'd be a good time to discuss how the big sun glasses, fun dances, and uptempo music of the Hyphy Movement came to be.
On the 5th episode, we talk about the days when the Bay Area had the Hyphy Movement era. We then give our perspective on “Common Sense” and follow it up with our Do's & Don'ts, Player & Freak of the day, and Tales from the Bay segments. Here's the time stamp: 0:00 (Intro) 3:04 (Hyphy Movement) 16:15 (Common Sense) 23:49 (Do's and Don'ts) 33:38 (Players and Freaks of the day) 39:30 (Tales from the Bay) 55:53 (Closing of episode 5) --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/area510/support
