Profile

Dr. Dre Ft. Cosby is a YTMND made by user studged. It consists of a short 2-minute remix of Dr. Dre's song "What's the Difference" accompanied by the popular quotes of the Cosby fad. This site was made in the early summer of 2006 and quickly garnered a high rating. At one point, it seemed like it would surpass Cosby Bebop as it took in over 500,000 views.

The Day of the Hack

During the first week of August, the user CrazyLegs sent a PM to studged, asking him to click on a link. The link was coding that caused the original Dr. Dre ft. Cosby site to get deleted. Crazy Legs was also able to delete k12.ytmnd.com as well using the same hack. The site was shortly resubmitted, but it did not reach the same ratings as it did previously despite taking in over 100,000 views. After the infamous user jewson alerted YTMND of the situation, max implemented a new feature where users have to type in a message they see in a box upon deleting a site. It is unknown whether the user CrazyLegs was disciplined.

An exclusive extended mix of the song was included on Volume 12 of the YTMND Soundtrack.
