Ngl feel like I've been brainwashed growing up to hold new york artists above southern artists

[A Tribe Called Quest ™]

“Yo yo son I’m keeping real all the time, word to muva I’m not jacking that fake shyt” is pinnacle intelligence to the Coli

 

[A Tribe Called Quest ™]

Nore can’t even speak English, nikka stutters every 2 seconds and is a sloppy drunk but NY is so intelligent

 

[Stick Up Kid]

But yet NY created the concept of “ keeping it real”

"keeping it real" was in the context of protecting the culture and the artform.

The South never cared about the artistic part of hip hop... it was all about strippers, money, trapping etc.

No coincidence that hip hop was at its peak when NY and West Coast was on Top..

 

[Chip Skylark]

I like Southern Artists.... I've always said Eightball N MJG is my favorite group of all time.. and Scarface is in My Top 10.

but the rest are trash, and are mostly responsible for destroying the artform of hip hop

Come on man there’s no way you believe this

I believe hip hop as an art form could never be destroyed

Every region has great artists and every region has had their amount of bullshyt that’s contributed to negative hip hop connotations

 

[Illmagic]

When I was a kid, the South was putting out those bangers from 2003-2007 with Lil Jon…


Even Nas rapped on a Lil Jon beat and killed it.





NY had its dope stuff but the South proved that they didn’t need em and now u have NY nikkas that’s been jockin the South since 2005.

Good lookin. I forgot about that track

Bruh you saw that Atlanta top 50

And I fukk with a lot of artists on it but there’s a clear gap when it comes to the art form of rapping

 

[Westbama Heartthrob]

it's been almost 20 years since the south has dominated hip hop and nyc has fell off

is the culture really better off for it?

Yes

No more bambattas and p diddy's taking folks manhood

 

[3333broadway]

Yes

No more bambattas and p diddy's taking folks manhood

Coach K …
Bird man ….
Young thug wearing dresses and smoking penis?
And let’s not even talk about the normalization of homosexuality in Atlanta the capital of southern rap


Bottom line is since the south has dominated the culture has suffered that’s why everybody feels a void in this shyt including y’all southern cats

If the bold were true, ny rap would actually be good within their own bubble

But unfortunately, they've been releasing mostly garbage for the past 30 years outside a handful of artists

For instance, name a classic NY album from the past five years

Where are the lyrical rappers from NY under the age of 25?

Problem is ny nikkas and their fanboys like to complain about why everybody else isn't doing something that they aren't even doing themselves

Also, Atlanta didn't normalize being gay. People been gay since the stone ages

 

[boogers]

i dont care about regions. good music is good music. shyt could be from mars for all i care.

Name a classic album period from the last 5 years

Name lyrical rappers in general under the age of 25

I love how NY posters love blaming the south for the spot rap
Is in when NY fell the fukk off way before the south took over .

it’s like yall ignore the amount of bullshyt they put out on the early to mid 2000s.

Future killing black music with autotune and simpin on hoes

Gucci Mane with the super ignorance and limited mumbling rap skill

Lil Wayne and the general public abandoning him when he slowed down on the features.

The South made music disposable and it aged like milk. Would you blast a random 2009 trap song in the club in 2024 and not being accused of being out of touch?

 

[Da_Eggman]

Care to explain?

There was a time when NY hip hop or anything that sounded like that was considered “real hip hop”

An artist like Gucci for instance was seen as a joke or garbage and not consider “real hip hop” at first…crunk rap, trap rap, mumble rap ect ect long as it wasn’t that style

One of the glaring moments is KRS One attacking Nelly cuz he wasn’t his style of boom bab rap…looking back he was hating on Nelly for being successful honestly


I would say Jeezy signing to def jam and being giving the Jay z co sign was a turning point

 

[EastsideRio]

If you were brainwashed into thinking Tim Dog was a better rapper than Scarface then that’s on you!
