I already hate Li'l Wayne as it is and just hearing this makes me even more pissed at him RIP Static after all you are the one that makes the song good
i believe they perhaps could have took the game a little further and produced or even callaborated on a gospel track/cd real talk... they just had the gift of music and they had chemistry together. i honestly can relate on so many levels... i still play they music and its 2011 finna be 2012. God had a higher callin for the kidd man, but wholesome music never gets old. ive been a fan since smoke in the air wit timbaland and magoo and cheers 2 u....
static smoke and black! man nem cats was hot together. musically inclined. i aint from KY but i know and respect good music when i hear it and them boiz can sang... without the studio... real God given voices.... my respect and condolences, R.I.P Brutha Static Major
nigga aint neva had no g-file. juvenile turk and BG was the real street niggas outta cash money, this lil nigga played gangsta for'a broads attention cuz thats who bought all his records. now he emulaten all the real g's but a lie will flame to ashes in the light
lil flame? was he a blood then? sike, that cat been poom poom all his career. i never took kindly to him or his lie'n ass music. wack ass metaphors cant freestyle got punked in LA ass nigga. gangstas make gangsta music and give respect where respect is do cuz thats the code of the gangsta. this nigga is a busta ass hype man for baby.
wow! i watched the whole vid, wayne must have been on that codine cough syrup stuff to not thank this guy, then again wayne doesn't thank his ghost writer (or writers) either :/ props to static's friend gunnshy for bringing this to light because a lot of people didn't know this and props to static major for making great music especially aaliyah's last album which i still listen to and LOVE! no loose rap...
I LOVE Static Major...but let me say something lil wayne always says thank to static because he helped him cross over to be just a regular rapper, at a concert in like 2008 lil wayne stopped performing just to say thanks. he loved him and many more...my friend is a rapper that passed and rappers showed him mad love, but not to sound cruel over the years things change life goes on and people get on with their lives....R.I.P Static Major We MISS you
When Static Major passed, I was shocked. Up here in NY, average cats didn't know who he was until I started running down some of his credits. Now, they understand. What even we don't understand is how this fuckwad wayne is not giving the love back. smh.
Where did Stephen learn most of his musical knowledge? Obviously I realize most of genius was from practice and talent....but did he go to a particular school for music development, or did he have any specific musical mentors? Just Wondering- It's hard to find any in-depth information about him.
Really!!! It's always the entourage keep b.s up. If it's like I think Steve resting and don't give a damn about this worldly trash...let him rest and stop letting the world think he was the kind of guy that would be this petty. If he was still here, he'll probably say f*&k it. I'm good enough to make more hits. Stop making crumbs into bricks. If it's a hood pride thang then stop riding Static and each man get his own claim.
@ToriWorld3 I agree with you 90% but in the case of Aaliyah she always gave him props the other members of
Playa and their friend Tim Barnett even said so in an interview when they were talking about how Ginuwine was ungrateful and didn't give static his due reconition and respect for being responsible for his biggest hit. Liyah always gave Static props.
I aint mad at you dog you just speaking up 4 ya boy who's not here. I havent heard alot of Static's music but I am a big Jodeci, Devante Swing/Bassment Crew fan and I know thats who he started with, but keep doin ya thing man & Fuck lil gayne. An if you get a chance Search : Antmo Da Dark Knight 4 some real music. peace
I love the beat it's my sh!t, but you can tell when you hear something nice it really makes you wonder. Hmmm who wrote this? Simply because lil gayne doesn't write songs for women he writes them for thugs. It all makes sense now!!!!!!! As for The Late Mr. Garrett he no longer has to work with demons.
SINCE YOU obviously KNOW NOTHING ABOUT THE MUSIC INDUSTRY, here's a quick lesson. "Lollipop" exposed Carter to an audience that HE DIDN'T HAVE BEFORE, thus selling more units,and making "lollipop" the biggest record of his career. You can do the homework yourself by checking out Billboard's charts. You can also compare his previous airplay to what he got when Lollipop was released. You can "move on" because you have no vested interest, but trying saying that shit to his family and friends
@b50z Static LOVED LOUISVILLE jackass. Get the quote straight. Yes Steve IS my friend and just because you haven't heard of him before "lollipop" means what ? That and a 1>50 will get you a small cup of coffee at Starbucks. You don't feel the loss because you didn't know him and that's cool, but you REALLY shouldn't speak out of school when talking about things you obviously know nothing about.
static is one of the greatest songwriters in history...in my opinion he up there wit smokey robinson and babyface...he wus underated along with playa!! my fav singing group of all time...gotta love PLAYA(STATIC, SMOKE, & BLACK)...much luv to u bro...music nowadays is outta tune witout niggas like static...
@fireegee, you are right, he did write all of those songs, but not one of them made it to the #1 billboard spot. Do the research for yourself, lollipop was his only #1 hit.
"Gunnshy357" is ABSOLUTELY CORRECT about all he's said; I address that to the first few comments I heard sayin' this and that about lil wayne.... Man: you hit it RIGHT ON THE NAIL, G! Stay UP; R. I. P. Lil' Stevie....
I agree with others on this in that you are giving Wayne too much shit about not giving props to Static at the award show. Gimme a break, he forgot and gave him props later. Everyone had heard of Wayne before Lollipop and you know that. Don't act like Static made Wayne cause thats a joke. Yeah, Static wrote and was featuring in some good hits but he wasnt known well outside of The Ville. Let people give props without hatin. Quit bein a buster ass DJ from L'ville, get to a real city.
I love my big cuz! I seen him write it. Me being a wayne fan I can say he is indeed in the wrong......he bettah have something up his sleeve to remember him when he gets out I know that
i feel what he's saying about this. i can't believe it's been almost 2 years, but yeah, for the awards to start coming in after he passed and no one acknowledges his contribution, yeah, that does suck. and it's tacky.
i remember playa, i knew he was the cat writing most of aaliyah's songs--great songs at that. His work will live on forever. i didn't know about his passing until a year after it happened (school, under a rock), but was shocked even then.
its all about money brother. wayne hav no balls 2 say thank you 2 anyone because hes rich enough and hungry for fame, thats the point. im suprised aswell by a lot of people sayin hes the best rapper alive ( like wtf ??).
i wanted to say thank you for Static and His beautiful music that surrounded my ear. Rest In Peace, never fogotten.
i had heard ginuwine took credit for the stuff static wrote for him and it makes me sick to my stomach that theese artist do this but the one person who thanked static the most for the songs is aaliyah a.k.a. "babygirl" we will all miss you static
For a sec i was wondering who you were but i saw that you were just apart of the Skype listening thing that Slam and them put together and i must say i totally respect your speaking out on this! I know it's been almost 2 years since you posted this but i feel ya and can't wait to hear what you had to share about Static in your interview. R.I.P Static
Static was one of those people that didnt get enough credit for the work he did! He really helped out alot of artists and I would have never known it was him until he passed! I loved his work and his voice! Static you will be missed, but you remain in the hearts of those who appreciate you and your talent!
thats fucked up but the industry know that Static is a the Man fucked the real non talented non creative bastards like lil wayne punk ass thank you Gunnshy for making this matter known
Thank you! We need more real friendssssssssssss! like you! Someone to stand up for you, when others want. I wish I had friends like you! I do stand up for my family and friends, but for me Noooooooo! Please tell me where are the reaaaaal friend! But for Static he was a talented Guy!!! Why do Talented Guy died so young! The Fake live on!!!
To show acknowledgment to static, even say a few words for him to show condolences, it's like when he passed away, there was no news on it, nobody came out to speak about it, nothing.... Well R.I.P. Static, still playin all ur great music from the old to the new -1-
@ "who knew static before lollipop" WHAT?! if anybody is a real r&b and hip hop fan then they damn sure should have known who static major is, i loved the group playa, static even had some of his own music he did as a solo artist, he produced n took part in so many great hits, man n to the person who says "give the other people props too".. Aight true, whatever, where are they to give static major his props?
I didn't know he wrote this. Did he write the lyrics too? That's wild. I knew he was a talented dude. I met Tim, Missy and Timberland back in the days when I was in VA Beach. Tim used to give props and talk about Devante being a huge influence on him, yet you never hear it on awards shows or in magazines either. I hate the flakiness of the industry
Isn't this the truth..Static helped with the track and that crackhead takes all the credit. Wayne has no sense of class and thinks he is the best rapper on the face of the earth. R.i.P static i hope you and Aaliyah can make more wonderful Music
Thank you man, i really enjoyed this video because its the truth...................i always felt like wayne didn't appreciate the work "Static" put in hes just taking all the credit thats some real bullshit for real i hate how noone realizes how great he is i share a passion with his music i wanna hear every song he made i'm still looking for them and i just wanted to show my appreciation for this video i thought i was alone in this
My boyfriend was good friends with Static. I didn't know him personally but, when i did meet him he was a laid back kinda of guy. All the years of his sucess went unoticed to those who didn't know him. People tend to have shallow minds and silly opinions. It's just like a minister not acknowledging his sucess without thanking god or his faithful members. Behind every piece of sucess someone has helped you along the way. It doesn't matter if you were hot before the fact. He made Lil Wayne hotter.
And for all yall talkin bout who "didn't know who static was.." BITCH he was a behind the scenes SONGWRITER and VOCAL ARRANGER...nobody was supposed to know who he was BUT people in the industry. AND he was filthy stankin rich off what he had done in the industry,,him and his peoples were eatin...GOOD. Like pac said " all i want is money fuck the fame ima simple man" and that was stat. He was just tired of bein behind the scenes so he decided to go on a do a solo album but he didn't NEED to.
maan fuck EVERYbody who said somethin down on static.,.he added that major to his name cuz he WAS and will ALWAYS be major...lollipop was HIS record, w/ out wayne that song woulda been what it was. He just made a smart strategical business move by throwin it to wayne.
Now lets see what Wayne does at the Grammys. Its fucked up, but i almost DON"T want lollipop to win, jus so i won't have to sit and watch my nigga stat get dissed..AGAIN.
Louisville is ridin wicha big brah..fuck everywhere else.
thats why i didt goto the store and but lil waynes album but whe static album is released im going to buy two of them oneto keep andput up as a collctors album andnever open and the other for listening use screw lil wayne
i think alot of ppl forget that LOLLIPOP wasn't produced only by static, like so many ppl would like you to believe. there was 2 other co-producers on that song, jim jousin aka james scheffer and darius harrison aka deezle. thought i would drop some facts for you static fans.
this is true, but he gave it to Wayne- static/major and wayne are veeeeeery good friends. after he accepted the award he pointed up aknowledging him- do you think he wants to bring this up at the vmas..
True Video rite here my dude... Static had a impact on my career n ill def neva 4get dat. Ima always come back 2 KY 2 show love. Get back at me man Ima true fan!! RIP STATIC MAJOR
imma jump into this convo...b/cuz lil' wayne's audience DID grow w/ the song lollipop. true indeed the carter I & II sold well, taking into consideration the type of audience he had prior the carter III, but the fact remains white ppl (mainly mid-class to upper mid-class, teenagers as a well as ADULTS) KNEW lil wayne, but couldn't really name 1 hit song (maybe go dj, if u got lucky). Lollipop broke open doors 4 wayne, it even gets play in techno-clubs & white ppl GO CRAZY
that still doesnt mean he wasnt a mastermind. The main people who win awards or sell millions of records now a days isnt for talent its just shock factor the man static music is timeless and he will always be marveled
Im not getting into the argument but know that static was responsible for alot of hits for aaliyah ginuwine and other artists. The newest timberlake album was just a playas album song by a white boy. Just like jermaine dupri and brian cox are responsible for the success of many mainstream acts usher, mariah, just to name a few but their albums or songs dont get accepted by the mainstream due to they wont compromise theirselves for fame
i'm only been real. name one hit he had, i mean a song that went #1. he didn't. the playa cd was a joke, they had a good song on the HOW TO BE A PLAYER soundtrack. all the shit ur talkig about i got or heard and none of it was hot. i'm not here to diss static, i'm just saying that wayne was hot b4 the lollipop song, ville niggas act like he made wayne hot, when it's the other way around, nobody outside the ville knew static until that video.
i love the ville and i give props to static, but i bet when statics cd drops, it flops. hell none of his own shit was hot, not the shit he did with playa or his solo shit. the only hot shit he did was with other artist, that alone should tell you something. a good song writer writes hits for others and their self, what hits did static have as an solo artist? ne-yo is the real deal, that's a great song writer
fuk u!! Static wrote most hits 4 aaliyah,ginuwine,etc.. and the playa album cheers 2 u didn't get promoted 2 well but the shit was dope as hell!Also chech out the soundtracks playa did songs for which include: Dr.Doo Little,Exit Wounds,Romeo must die,and timbaland's 1st two albums: tim's bio and welcome to our world! Then c if u still talk that bullshit about neyo!!Great talent doesn't always go platinum wake up!!
i'm not hating on static, but he's given way too much credit for shit he didn't do by his self. every track he wrote for someone else help produce, but since he passed away ppl act like he did it all by himself. i'm just saying give the other ppl who helped him some props to.
did anyone check out the Static feature in the new VIBE magazine (Plies on the cover)? they brought out Static's family, Playa, DEVANTE SWING, Tim, Missy, B Cox, and others to speak on him ... there was also one in Ozone in March I think
by the way i'm from the Ville. i don't live there now, but that's where i'm from. how many award shows have you seen where the artist gets on stage and actually thanks the song writer? NONE! same case here, static got paid for a job well done.. LETS MOVE ON, WE GOT BIGGER FISH TO FRY THAN WORRING ABOUT IF A RICH SONG WRITER GOT PROPS FROM ANOTHER RICH ENTERTAINER.
i disagree with you. static was a hired gun, he did what he got paid to do and that was to write a hit song. you should be upset with members of his own camp. when static was alive i never heard Aaliyah, missy, tim or gunuwine give props to static for the hot songs he wrote for them. but now that he's dead everyone is shouting his name. i'm sure he got a fat check and is still getting checks for that song. that's props enough for some of us. let the man rest in peace.
really, point me to one video show or award show where aaliyah said thank you static for writing my song. i'm not talking about liner notes on a cd cover. i mean an award show, that way i can see it for myself.
i'm not a wayne fan, but he was already well known b4 the song with static, you niggaz act like static made wayne. most ppl outside the ville didn't even know who he was, other than he was part of a group that got dropped by def jam. he was good, not great.
Static was never a featured performer for the most part. He was on "Lollipop". Being as close to the situation as I was and knowing things that you'll NEVER possibly know, saying "thank you" was the LEAST Wayne could've done.
Oh and for the record, ain't no "niggaz" in Louisville.
if wayne cut static a check, he did say thank you. and i'm still waiting for someone to show me a video where statics camp thanked him on a award show b4 he passed over.
and for the record, there's a gang of niggaz in the ville. from the west end to the east end, broadway is full of niggaz, hell man chk the news, niggaz is killing each other every hr on the hr. i guess you 4got about the crips, bloods, badboys, jr monks, aint no niggaz in the ville, get real and keep it real.
girl please! i use to live in da ville but i moved back to LA & da ville is soft dog shit compared to REAL MAJOR cities. them fools in the westend aint bout shit. u wanna see some real gangs come to LA. yeah ville has their killings & shooting but out here in LA you got "wars" going on. u got some areas where u cant even step out on ur front porch or walk 2the store.
get outta w/ that hoodrat mentality. & stop referring to each other as niggaz this & niggaz that. damn i hate hoodrat bunnies
first off she doesn't live in the hood. she lives in a very nice house in the burbs out side of indy. she has family that lives there, and she goes there to visit family.
now for static, i'm a reader of vibe, xxl, the source and remix. i've never read in any of those mags where static's camp thanked him for writing songs for them. so please lets keep it real. lollipop did open wayne up to whites, but it did the same for static, no one outside the ville knew who static was until that song.
U TRIPPIN!!! Anybody who knows music (the writing & producing side of it) knows who static is! Im not talkin bout these kool-aid drinkin, souljah boy listening ghetto ass kiddies im talkin bout real listeners & fans of music. not people who tend to go w/ the trends & whats hot now. true playa fans & people who are really indepth listeners TRUST me knows who static is & how he was apart of the whole timb, missy, ginuwine, aaliyah & etc Camp. & how dare you disrespect the man talkin all dat shit!
come on now, get real. we're talking about the everyday fan, not ppl on the production side of music. we're talking about the ppl who go out and spend their $ on music. i've lived in the ville, miami and chi town, now i'm in indy and most FANS had no clue of who static was outside of the ville. true playa fans, its not that many of them, since they only had 1 cd b4 getting dropped by def jam. i'm not dissin him, but don't say he made wayne hot when wayne had music and videos all over the place.
first off aaliyah won like 1 award on tv (vma 4 "try again") dont get me wrong im a die hard fan of aaliyah but she never was on tv winning awards left & right. so therefore how could she thank static? but in other interviews & etc she thank static, tank, timbo & others. dont get it twisted, lil wayne was popular in "da hood" but lollipop really took him to the forefront aka white audience. whites buy records, static made him sell a millie. nobody wasnt studyin wayne's ass but nawlins & hoodrats
it doesn't matter if it was hoodrats or rich white kids checking wayne out. he was moving units b4 lollipop. if static was so great why didn't his boy timbo put his music out? you notice that timbo moved over to white artist like justin and nelly f. if you check billboard you will see that wayne's last 2 cds sold a million each. so therefore static didn't make him sale a million. static was a good song write, but not great.
@maddetox Static was and Still is the best thang to happen to R&B Period....Do U Know How Many Hits This Man Got Under His Belt.....Numerous, U Might Want to Rethink Dat Good not Great....He Was Da Best. RIP Static Major
@FireeGee Ok fireegee, what hits did static have? And when i say hits, I mean what songs did he write that hit the #1 spot on billbroad. Hate to break it to you but it was Lollipop and that's it. Plus he only wrote the hook on that song, the music was done by two other producers. Not here to hate, just sick of hearing niggaz say he did shit that he didn't do. The greatest thing to happen to RnB was and still is Marvin Gaye.
@maddetox Lets See Where To Begin, Um.....He wrote...Ginuwines So Anxious, Pony, Aaliyahs Rock The Boat, Damn Near Pretty Ricky's Whole First Album Bluestars.....And Many Many Many More.....So Ok Yeah....No Numbers 1s I Doubt Dat
i wouldn't say all that. i'm from the west coast. i show nothing but love to static all day long. check my page if u don't believe me. mr. gunn when is that album gonna drop? they ain't shelving it on us are they? :( please help push those in concern to drop the album for the fans!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good lookn out Mark.. Static Major The Originator is one of the Greatest and I'll fight whoever says different and I mean dat!Its all about respect. I appreciate all of Playa's music first of all. And Me personaly, Id preferr Static above all other big name writers. Really, Static wrote Lil Wayne A Smash Hit. And the reason why God takes his people ( his children rather) at such young ages is to keep them from the evil to come. Death is Swallowed up by Victory.
off this subject, is Static gon get a pic put up downtown w/ everyone else? if u ask me, i think he need a museum next to Ali's. lol. B96.5 = best radio station ever
No really if it wasnt for static he wouldnt have Lollipop in the first place plus static has wrote songs for Aaliyah, Ginuwine, Missy elliot,Pretty Ricky, and MANY others.. learn ya facts hun.
mam shut up and stop hatin in is video its says rip static major on the bet awards lil wayne says rest in peace static major your another punk ass hater and need to stop it wayne sold a mil i a week he dont get respect???? you out if there dude static is one of the best ima fan but u act like he was responsible for all of wayne sucess no at the in of the day waynes da best static's a legend and u a hater dont care if u say u know him or not
THANK YOU!!!!!! i mean honestly i can say "R.I.P." Static all day, but that's not the same thing as someone saying "Thanks Static! I wouldn't have done this WITHOUT YOU" Because you heard everybody say like R.I.P. Biggie and R.I.P. Pac. But then not to acknowlage them when they helped you for something that YOU wouldn't have done is just proving that you have too much of a F****** Ego to show that you want to be respected and i totally agree with you Gunnshy!
I feel you my man, Ive known his work for 15 years and it is about RESPECT! Especially when they are gone resting in peace. I LUV YOU SO MUCH STEPHEN.....YOU ARE SO RELEVANT....WITH OR WITHOUT THE AWARD......muuuuuuuuuuuuah!
Shout out to Gunnshy for keeping the SPIRIT ALIVE.....I feel ya, its the principality...I know righ!
As Wayne pointed out in the access granted (and as i knew bein from Louisville and bein close to 1 of stat's best friends) the song was COMPLETED when stat GAVE it to lil wayne. The only part of the song that wasn't done when Wayne got it were Wayne's lil verses, and ad libs. He's tryna accept credit like HE presented the song to Stat, not the other way around.That's aiight tho... ASCAP knows who wrote the song..lol. RIP STAT. Keep holdin it down Mark. wassup wit Suppatime?? u know??
But in the end, the people that KNOW Steve and knew actually what he did, and knew he is the one behind that hit and he's the one why that record sold so many, is all that matters really in my opinion. Static was one of the best artists in this industry and anyone who knows anything about music should agree. I'm extremely anxious about his CD coming out. Keeps getting pushed back. :(
It's a shame, I REALLY wish I could have met the guy and shook his hand.
In the end it is pretty bull he can't thank the man who made that song such a hit, but Wayne in riding the high horse right now, he's cocky and knows a lot of people like his music. I don't think he's the best rapper alive because Jay Z, Kanye, Lupe etc are still alive, but I do think he has one hell of a rap game and can hold his own pretty good. I personally don't think he's going to make it the next few years unless he changes his lifestyle and slows down on the addiction.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
no dis to static but stop dissin wayne dude he one of da best bruh..ya he shuld show some respect but drop it nigga he aint just move on static was one of ur closest boys but nigga keep his memory alive just stop dissin wayne damn....for real i didnt even kno static till lollipop aint that enough respect there puttin him in tha vid.
speak it!!! low class ass lil wayne..i like his music, but i would spit on him if i ever saw him in person (not like that would happen) But come on, honestly what song does wayne have that SOMEONE ELSE didnt write, produce, or basically made for him that has sold as much as this track??....i cant think of one.
THANK YOU STATIC for making a banger! we love u and miss you!

So true. Lil wayne used to be good on the mixtapes but no all the fame went to his head and he does what ever he wants
He sounds like a zombie now. Like his career which is funny , dead.

@ToriWorld3 I agree with you 90% but in the case of Aaliyah she always gave him props the other members of
Playa and their friend Tim Barnett even said so in an interview when they were talking about how Ginuwine was ungrateful and didn't give static his due reconition and respect for being responsible for his biggest hit. Liyah always gave Static props.

I love the beat it's my sh!t, but you can tell when you hear something nice it really makes you wonder. Hmmm who wrote this? Simply because lil gayne doesn't write songs for women he writes them for thugs. It all makes sense now!!!!!!! As for The Late Mr. Garrett he no longer has to work with demons.

SINCE YOU obviously KNOW NOTHING ABOUT THE MUSIC INDUSTRY, here's a quick lesson. "Lollipop" exposed Carter to an audience that HE DIDN'T HAVE BEFORE, thus selling more units,and making "lollipop" the biggest record of his career. You can do the homework yourself by checking out Billboard's charts. You can also compare his previous airplay to what he got when Lollipop was released. You can "move on" because you have no vested interest, but trying saying that shit to his family and friends
Gunnshy357 1 year ago
@b50z Static LOVED LOUISVILLE jackass. Get the quote straight. Yes Steve IS my friend and just because you haven't heard of him before "lollipop" means what ? That and a 1>50 will get you a small cup of coffee at Starbucks. You don't feel the loss because you didn't know him and that's cool, but you REALLY shouldn't speak out of school when talking about things you obviously know nothing about.

@fireegee, you are right, he did write all of those songs, but not one of them made it to the #1 billboard spot. Do the research for yourself, lollipop was his only #1 hit.

I agree with others on this in that you are giving Wayne too much shit about not giving props to Static at the award show. Gimme a break, he forgot and gave him props later. Everyone had heard of Wayne before Lollipop and you know that. Don't act like Static made Wayne cause thats a joke. Yeah, Static wrote and was featuring in some good hits but he wasnt known well outside of The Ville. Let people give props without hatin. Quit bein a buster ass DJ from L'ville, get to a real city.

i remember playa, i knew he was the cat writing most of aaliyah's songs--great songs at that. His work will live on forever. i didn't know about his passing until a year after it happened (school, under a rock), but was shocked even then.

My boyfriend was good friends with Static. I didn't know him personally but, when i did meet him he was a laid back kinda of guy. All the years of his sucess went unoticed to those who didn't know him. People tend to have shallow minds and silly opinions. It's just like a minister not acknowledging his sucess without thanking god or his faithful members. Behind every piece of sucess someone has helped you along the way. It doesn't matter if you were hot before the fact. He made Lil Wayne hotter.

Im not getting into the argument but know that static was responsible for alot of hits for aaliyah ginuwine and other artists. The newest timberlake album was just a playas album song by a white boy. Just like jermaine dupri and brian cox are responsible for the success of many mainstream acts usher, mariah, just to name a few but their albums or songs dont get accepted by the mainstream due to they wont compromise theirselves for fame

i'm only been real. name one hit he had, i mean a song that went #1. he didn't. the playa cd was a joke, they had a good song on the HOW TO BE A PLAYER soundtrack. all the shit ur talkig about i got or heard and none of it was hot. i'm not here to diss static, i'm just saying that wayne was hot b4 the lollipop song, ville niggas act like he made wayne hot, when it's the other way around, nobody outside the ville knew static until that video.

maddetox 3 years ago
Static was never a featured performer for the most part. He was on "Lollipop". Being as close to the situation as I was and knowing things that you'll NEVER possibly know, saying "thank you" was the LEAST Wayne could've done.

first off aaliyah won like 1 award on tv (vma 4 "try again") dont get me wrong im a die hard fan of aaliyah but she never was on tv winning awards left & right. so therefore how could she thank static? but in other interviews & etc she thank static, tank, timbo & others. dont get it twisted, lil wayne was popular in "da hood" but lollipop really took him to the forefront aka white audience. whites buy records, static made him sell a millie. nobody wasnt studyin wayne's ass but nawlins & hoodrats
JL0vely 3 years ago
it doesn't matter if it was hoodrats or rich white kids checking wayne out. he was moving units b4 lollipop. if static was so great why didn't his boy timbo put his music out? you notice that timbo moved over to white artist like justin and nelly f. if you check billboard you will see that wayne's last 2 cds sold a million each. so therefore static didn't make him sale a million. static was a good song write, but not great.

He's tryna accept credit like HE presented the song to Stat, not the other way around.That's aiight tho... ASCAP knows who wrote the song..lol. RIP STAT.

But in the end, the people that KNOW Steve and knew actually what he did, and knew he is the one behind that hit and he's the one why that record sold so many, is all that matters really in my opinion. Static was one of the best artists in this industry and anyone who knows anything about music should agree. I'm extremely anxious about his CD coming out. Keeps getting pushed back. :(
It's a shame, I REALLY wish I could have met the guy and shook his hand.
dave5606 3 years ago 7
In the end it is pretty bull he can't thank the man who made that song such a hit, but Wayne in riding the high horse right now, he's cocky and knows a lot of people like his music. I don't think he's the best rapper alive because Jay Z, Kanye, Lupe etc are still alive, but I do think he has one hell of a rap game and can hold his own pretty good. I personally don't think he's going to make it the next few years unless he changes his lifestyle and slows down on the addiction.
