What Atlanta artist ?

Zaytoven got on with Gucci who is from Alabama and Jeezy who is from Macon

Lex got on with Waka who is from New York and blew up with Rick Ross who is from Miami


I fucc wit Atlanta but most of the credit yall try to give yourself is from ppl who aren’t from there at all
When has Gucci ever claimed Alabama? He has East Atlanta tatted on him. Waka claims ClayCo and Jeezy had everyone thinking he was from the 4th Ward. They claim Atlanta, we don’t claim them. Those artist have also been in Atlanta since they were kids and you know how that goes. Those producers are nothing without Atlanta.

DJ Screw shouldn’t claim Houston, Dolph shouldn’t claim Memphis. and Kanye is from Atlanta using that argument.

I agree with you but I will say ATL has always been very friendly about who can claim the city. No matter how big say DMX became, he was always from Yonkers, or Griselda Buffalo bc New Yorkers are quick to call you out for false claiming the city or a borough

Gucci does claim Alabama, but he reps EA first and foremost.

Yung Joc made some fun music…


Atlanta Hip Hop was fun from 2005-2009.

I miss when DJ UNK was out too.

ATL music didn’t get demonic until Waka Flocka Flame and Gucci.


Those early 808 Mafia beats were a bit dark.


Leaned out Future got nikkas drugged out which is why l think that his music created a bunch of junkies who wanna just rob and kill someone over drugs.


ATL used to be fun and goofy like in the 90s.

They clearly identify as Atlanta artists. It’s like Texas claiming Nelly cause he was born in Austin, when he’s clearly through and through a St Louis artist. Waka Flocka is originally from South Jamaica Queens, I bet ain’t no NYers trying to claim him as something other than an Atlanta artist.

How when the biggest Atlanta producers are not from Atlanta

Zaytoven from Cali born and raised until adulthood

Metro from St. Louis born and raised until adulthood

Lex Luger from Virginia born and raised until adulthood …

They all had their own sound that didn’t sound anything like born and raised ATL producers like lil John and Jermaine dupri



Premo is from TX.....but he was the sound of NYC :manny:

it will be what it's been

popular because it's the soundtrack to bottle service & bytches shaking bbl built booties

that's all most motherfukkers want out of life

worldwide atl(h~town...miyami) is the image of paradise to nikkas

nikkas want to trick off like meech bytches want to be tricked on like the most famous popping birds

music comes after real life

that era where the art & the music superceded everything was brief rare most likely never to be repeated
