Chicago Juke
The 2000s have also seen a rise in Chicago Juke, a faster variant of Ghetto House which began forming in the late 1980s. Chicago Juke songs are generally around 150-160 BPM with kick drums, usually in a One-And-Two A-And-Four style pattern, pounding rapidly (and at times very sparsely) in syncopation with crackling snares, claps, and other sounds reminiscent of old drum machines. The production style is often markedly low-fi, much like Baile Funk. Chicago Juke evolved to match the energy of footwork,a dance style born in the disparate ghettos, house parties and underground dance competitions of Chicago. RP Boo, a former footwork dancer, is generally credited with making the first songs that fall within the canon Living hand in hand with juke music, footwork is one of the last untapped (and resultantly, unfiltered) hood dance music styles in the world. Footwork is a controlled and complex moving of the feet at high speeds, a modern form of house dance footwork and Breakdancing footwork. A couple prominent producers in the Chicago Juke and booty house are artists like Dude 'n Nem, DJ Slugo, and DJ Tha Pope. Tha Pope's song "Bob That Back Down" has over 1 million views on one YouTube post, and well over 2 million views across all YouTube postings of the song. This is a salient example of the way Chicago Juke has flirted with wider acceptance in the past decade (though regional popularity certainly accounts for some of those views).
