Video insights

@hiphopofthe90s's TikTok video "Lil Wayne really made this beat sound like it was his own 😮‍💨🔥 On April 10, 2007, Lil Wayne and Birdman appeared on BET’s “Rap City” with host DJ Q45 to premiere the video for “You Ain’t Know,” a song from their 2006 collaborative album, “Like Father, Like Son.” Before Wayne begins rapping, Birdman places his bandana over the microphone and steps into the corner, leaving the booth to him. Wayne then delivers the verse that became known as “Live From the 504” over the instrumental from Collie Buddz’s “Come Around.” Three days after the episode aired, “Da Drought 3” was released. A slightly different version of “Live From the 504” appears on the mixtape over the beat from Young Dro and T.I.’s “Shoulder Lean.” The televised performance and mixtape version therefore feature the same core verse over two different instrumentals. That approach represented the creativity of Wayne’s mixtape run. He regularly took recognizable beats and gave them new flows, concepts and punchlines. Across “Da Drought 3,” he reworked popular records associated with JAY-Z, Beyoncé, Jeezy, Young Dro and several others. The project arrived between “Tha Carter II” and “Tha Carter III,” capturing the period when Wayne’s constant run of mixtapes, features and freestyles supported his “Best Rapper Alive” claim. Pitchfork later placed “Da Drought 3” at No. 1 on its list of the 50 best rap mixtapes of the millennium.
