"Ha" was actually pretty brilliant lyrically. Casual listeners just pick up on the Ha at the end of each bar, but if you listen closely, you can hear the internal rhyme on each bar BEFORE he says Ha at the end. Not too many MCs can actually pull that kind of flow off, much less do an entire song.
@@MJScoutArchMar can we all agree to appropriately rate the song. There is no genius to it or some underlying inspirational message or even some crazy skill for that matter.

Juvenile was one creative, talented dude when you think about it. Go back and listen to some of the songs he released, the concepts, and the cadences in which he rapped. Juve was a beast.
As a rapper myself for 17 years Juvenile and Project Pat had what I thought of as impossible cadences. Just the way they said their words and the flow... you just can't reinvent that without either sounding like them or sounding silly. That plus they both have unique voices. I think Dababy comes close with his voice but he's not as creative with rhyming.

That explanation of “Ha” alone is just why us blk ppl are so powerful, innovative and creative… the simple ingenuity and vision it took for Juve to just say I wanna paint this picture as a drunken man and I know it will work is everything!!!
Broken Language and Pimpinabitch are pretty spot on comparisons. Also the "Ha" tidbits about Juvie making a spiritual successor to Soulja Rags and being drunk blew my mind. Talent like that is just unteachable.

Correct me someone if I'm wrong but Broken Language didn't get major(emphasis on the word major lol) buzz outside of New York. Those two things make me believe Juvenile.

400 Degrees is the best Ca$h Mone¥ album EVER. Others may have sold more or have bigger singles but as an album. Nothing comes close. It’s also IMO one of the beat albums ever made. The music and cohesion is so amazing 🤩

@@ninolifegawd4826 you sound like a lame who never ripped a rail of white lightening in a california pizza kitchen bathroom stall before running out on the Bill.
Soulja rags is the album that caught the ear of the majors that had every major label wanting to do business with Cash money because of the signature sound and style Juvenile brought to the game and lyrically Soulja rags even blow 400 degrees out the water, it was a true masterpiece and most people don't even know this
Technically it was because he used the first few bars in his 3rd verse of Solja Rags as the hook for Ha. Very smart of Juvenile. He knew how to recycle some of his previous material into new material. 🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@jarrettallen9119 Soulja Rags and Ha was basically a combination of phrases and conversation pieces we used every day in NO. And the way he used a bar from one song was bounce music and local rap in a nutshell alot of repeat and recycling from their own or another rapper's song
Ha dropped when I was stationed down in Biloxi, Mississippi in the Marines. We stayed pullin' lines from this, especially, "when you paid you got beaucoup places to go, ha?" because that was totally our young dumb asses. Soon as the check came on Fridays we dipped to New Orleans to go to Bourbon Street and raise hell all weekend.
People who heard Ha, that didn’t know Juvenile’s music thought he couldn’t rap...but when they listened to the whole 400 degrees, they seen that Juve really can rap, he wasn’t a lyrical genius but he was really good at his craft.
Welcome 2 tha Nolia was my shit.... Play that with 2 12s in a hatchback... They hear you before they see you. One of the few albums that I can listen to from start to finish. Let's not forget that Jay-Z hopped on the remix to Ha.
One of my favorite Juve songs, ironically, isn't really a song, but the intro of Juvie The Great. He just talks over some New Orleans inspired horns and drums, but it's really dope !
Ok Vald gets a point for knowing about “pimpin a bitch really is a one of the best songs EVER. From the “Soulja Rags” album which is just as good as 400 degrees
"Let's say you're at a DJ and them boys pullin' guns You better run for it, run for it, run You in the Magnolia and my people pullin' guns You better run for it, run for it, run Run for it, run for it, run Run for it, run for it, run"
Cash Money's formula after getting the 30 Million deal was to do spin-offs of their regional classics: Juvenile's "Ha" = "Solja Rags" B.G.'s "Cash Money Is an Army" = "All on U" Hot Boyz "We on Fire" = "We on Fire (97 Version)"
First time I met juvenile right after that digital services. I was recording 2nd album who got yo back produced by pimp c we played ping pong few time while mixing..almost worked together but my manager was tripping.Lil sin is my name.
I don't listen to Juvenile (nowadays) that much but gotta admire his honesty and his character, not fabricating stupid shit to look gangsta on youtube or whatever.
If you're talking about in 2021, I agree with you, but in the late 80s to maybe mid 2000s, I disagree with you because the biggest stereotype about East Coast(especially New York) rappers was that they were the only people doing high concept, immersive songs involving method acting. Hell, most of the backpackers from the South and West coast who did that were called "weirdo rappers" just because they were on that "Ha" level when entire albums of that time were just on that materialistic tip.
I remember when ha came out we was all laughing at him but we kept listening to it and it kept getting harder every time that we was singing it word for word lol. It literally grew into a classic.

And also how NYers always be saying "I'm from NY" when dey outta town...
That 400 Degreez was so monumental for the south/New Orleans. P. put out some solid material with No Limit but that album took New Orleans to the next level.
I remember my cousin told me to come here and he was playing that UNLV "drag em by the river". Then years later Juve re-did it and I told everybody it was a remake and they had no idea what I was talking bout lol.

The rhyming is not special. Maybe it's new to you. But the content is poetic in its realism.

I remember Juvenile being on B.G. 2nd album Chopper City that came out in '96 so that's crazy he came on the tail end of UNLV reign.
He was there. He probably just didn't wanna talk about what happened to Yella.
@@samspade8830 why they killed yella I heard bird man had something to do with that
@@lilbro8209 Birdman fired UNLV and he owed UNLV money. So Yella confronted him, pistol whipped him, and shot up his truck. So a week or so later, Yella was found shot to death in his car. That's the rumor.

Some guy ran Into the store because he lost his cd some how
Told.the guy you man please I know you have another copy of 400
I was like damn Mf really be on that
He put cash money on da map
In my humble opinion my top 3 cash money albums are 400 Degreez, Chopper City and How U Luv That Vol 2
Soulja rags was better
400 Degreez is one of the best hip hop albums of all time. Period.
"I rock a soldier rag but Nunn like the Hot Boys" RIP Nipsey Hussle
man fuck nipsey
@MiLiTARY MiNDED who said I hated him and how you know I never met him you assuming alot there
