Just reading through the thread and um kinda shocked.
Who has the better music period, very easy to answer.
Look at it this way.... there is classic great music out there... like really old shyt u can play and it sounds amazing.
Run dmc in there time im sure people liked it but even I play it now that shut is wack
on what planet?
i can throw a get-together right now and throw on a run dmc record, and people will start
jammin and at the very least noddin their heads heavy.
i throw on an outkast record and it will get no response. people will just continue on with their conversations and such.
Expose you don't know the time line and history.
then, deflect it into a personal attack.
all because you know you will be exposed as one of those phoney neo soul rnb dressed up funny nikkaz and not a bboy.

this is how i feel about dudes like
@Robbie3000 &
@Monoblock
dudes dont have a hip-hop bone in their bodies. i dont understand why they cant just come clean & accept who they are. i'd respect it if they did.
thats why they can only respond with insults.
Even influence they are definitely on par with RUN DMC IMO. Wasn't no one popping outta the south before them. SPCM set the table for the whole southern movement. That album birthed so many rappers it's ridiculous.
Geto boys and Luke were there first, but I don't think any crew took the South and placed it on their shoulders like OutKast and the Dungeon Family. The title of the first album says it all. Dirt South was a term that was coined by Cool Breeze and Goodie Mob.
dudes dont know chit about rap.
I'm not taking anything away from the Geto Boys.They were pioneers who paved the way, but OutKast and Goodie Mob were the first to take a declarative stand for the South.
Atlanta as a hub of all hip-hop in general and Southern Hip-Hop specifically, just doesn't happen if it wasn't for seeds laid by the Dungeon Family movement.
dungeon family didnt progress the south at all. and thats not a diss. they were always in the backpack & alternative rap lanes. its like saying the roots put the philly rap scene back on the map. as proud as the city is of the roots, they didnt progress the scene's standing at all.
the media can dwell on their source award speech in hindsight all they want. they couldve not existed at all and the south wouldve still been in the same place during that time period.
luke skywalker & j.prince/geto boys opened the doors. master p/no limit blew the region up and made it into a viable coast. basically what it is now. and yall dont even give props to no limit on here. yall hate them dudes. this chit is like bizarro world.
truth be told, jermaine dupri/so so def was more relevant in hip-hop than the dungeon family.
hottest jersey in the throwback game at one point. i've seen big boi belly ache about nikkas biting his steeze.
cudi, rocky, thug, kanye, etc. dre paved the way for all them weirdo dudes.
niccas wasnt rockin that chit b.
only people rockin baseball jerseys were usually corny niccas and/or dudes that actually played organized baseball. and yea, these are the types that become cops. i remember one of them dudes joined the police force as soon as he graduated. word to
@Art Barr
gee, i wonder why.
