thats neither here nor there.
its all about outlets. or in this case; the lack thereof.
new orleans is the reason why the south blew up and they carried it for years. what yall got amnesia or something?
as for bounce music, whenever a bounce record or even a knockoff bounce record gets national exposure, it blows up big.
plus it blends in perfectly with club scenes in other regions. especially places like philly, baltimore, DC, etc.
theres absolutely nothing niche about bounce music or new orleans rap in general. its the exact opposite of the truth.
