I'm hating a little bit but did 8Ball + MJG have anything that was as big as Big Pimpin + Playaz Anthem???
3-6 produced both of their anthems



iono bout the east coast strip clubs

But everywhere else maybe Cali.. but shonuff had stripclubs on lock for over 10yrs

Big pimpin did nothing for ugk

Album sales didn’t boost dirty money took forever to hit gold and that was after pimp died

They didn’t get paid or get a plaque

And when they tried to get jay for dirty money.. he hit em with the breach of contract shyt n jive wouldn’t release the album because they wanted blueprint 2..

So they had to settle for Jermaine Dupri

Remember the backstory about big pimpin .. and pay attention to pimps verse he said a whole lot for 8bars.. after the verse ends say fukk them nikkas at the end


Pimp had a way of dissin nikkas and it went over folks heads
:russ:

Ball n g didn’t have those east coast issues

Mase needed them for Harlem world they came gave em heat got paid n a platinum plaque

Puffy needed them for his album.. they gave em heat .. got paid n got a platinum plaque

Puffy showed em love and signed em they got paid n a gold plaque

Ball n g 3- ugk 1

And to clinch the series




Vs




4-1 ball n mjg

Just off the strength they both showed up on 3-2’s album and ball n g showed raw naked gallbladder

UGK had a bigger impact but Ball and MJG are better rappers

Above the fray.
thanks for the replies
Didn't come up listening to either group, BUT people I knew from other regions would speak about them the way we speak of Kool G Rap.

Only two songs featuring Bun that ever really got airplay up here was Big Pimpin' and The Shaq Record 'You Can't Stop The Rain"....Bun's flow was impeccable .

Even Scarface who is loved and respected up here, didn't get airplay outside of his big singles. Speaking of Scarface....when Big Mike was part of the Geto Boys, I thought the chemistry between them was dope. Face used to ragdoll Willie D on songs, so it was cool to hear Scarface rapping with another good rapper.

Stay Fly got airplay...and Eightball and MJG did their thing.

me and my homies make this comparison all the time. i go back and forth. honestly i cant really call it. i prob lean more towards ugk but i feel like ball and g are soooooo slept on. 8ball is one of the most underrated rappers of all time and mjg complimented him perfectly.

ugk's idols were


latest
royal flush... (al-b, gangsta ric(ricky royal, coco budda) and sergio








ugk's to hard swallow ft 976-bunb which was play of royal flush's 976-dope

rydin dirty... bun was under ricky royal and used ricks flow..which is aggressive and flows...its only one other rapper that ricky took under his wing outside of bun that he help and thats bo$$

ricky wrote majority of all her verses including







wrote for da brat



bun flow did a complete 360 from southern way, too hard to swallow and super tight..


and it was first introduced here and ricky royal(coco budda) is on the song

everybody knows u are as good as ya ghostwriter.. and after u found who did the ghostwriting u will hear it..

ex

still d.r.e- dre sounded like jay-z
put it on me- dre sounded like knocturnal..hell the entire nikkaz4life album he sounded like d.o.c
queen bytch- lil kim sounded like biggie


and til this day...bun has never went back to that flow and he fell all the way off after 96

u didnt hear bun aggressive again until big pimpin and ricky was around then.....and then after that...bun was trash flow wise...and was lazy as hell

and they both could rap..

u never heard them outshine each other that was the most balance group of all time



fat mack: I see 1,2 nikkas actin live 3seconds pass 'fore i blast with my 4,5 .....

nikkas went nutts over balls verse...until

mjg came in with the 25 lighters on my dresser yessir..

and the song stood perfectly on its axis...

no other group outside of kid n play...can go back n forth on a song...feedin off each other...like ball n g



outkast cant
ugk cant
bone cant
