Trap Muzik through Paper Trail, this is a true statement with Wayne being the only rapper that was competition and surpassed him. And yes, T.I. had the streets. When it came to his music having the streets on lock, that era of T.I. did in fact have the streets. He started losing that credibility when he dropped "Whatever You Like", "Live Your Life" and "Dead & Gone". Those were huge hit records, but he didn't have enough heat for the streets to balance it out. No solo Southern rapper did it to the degree that T.I. did it. Before Paper Trail, T.I. could drop "What You Know About That", "Shoulder Lean" with Dro, hop on a record that goes #1 like JT's "My Love", and then bring it all back with a single like "Top Back".

Luda and juvie are better than tip....tip never shook the game like juvie did with 400 degrees

There's an entire sub-genre of rap that T.I. helped pioneer and make mainstream. When T.I. dropped KING in 2006, it was the biggest album of that year and a lot of heavyweights dropped albums that year.

T.I was special, he killed Flip's whole career. Flip build a career after years of grinding and Clifford shut all that down in months.
Shawty Lo tried to intimidate Tip and he dropped What up and it was game over.

But let's be honest ...

These guys Flip and Shawty Lo were "easy work" to TI

NONE OF THESE TWO ARTISTS had a body of work that could compare to TIP at the time nor where they lyrically on his level...

Ask yourself could TIP have the same results vs

Andre 3000.….or Scarface....or a Cee Lo or a Big Krit?

I doubt it :mjpls:


Cause LUDACRIS held up pretty well on the MIC and in those STREETS :manny:

Because Jprince is taking a different approach now..

He has no choice but to go to the legal corporate method because other parties are involved such as Universal Records...Aspire mgmt and his own son Jas prince..

The reputation of being a "notorious" intimidator has preceded Jprince since the days he left Mayweather crew mopping up blood in a gym over a decade ago..,.

J ain't soft and he damn sure don't fear Baby...

It's just a different approach..

He is a business man:troll:

stop overestimating Birdman just because you from the 504 :stopitslime:

...he is a FINESSER ... :why:

he ain't in the same lane as his brother Terrence "gangsta" williams who is doing a life sentence or Hankton who was a straight killer ...these were the REAL MUSCLE BEHIND BIRDMAN'S GANGSTA PERSONA ..word to BG

Videos: Telly Hankton & Cash Money: The Bayou Kingpin Who Allegedly Financed Birdman [FULL DOC] | Don Diva Magazine

As far as why he hasn't been as threatning to Birdman as he was to diddy....

they have a much different relationship....Birdman looks up to Jprince ..just like most moguls in the south have

i was at the Ozone awards back in 06 when every bossed up cat in that event from the south treated Prince like he was a walking deity....

Birdman NEVER gets that kinda treatment ...... and you know it :umad:

:russ::mjlol: Gangsta and Telly was not the killers behind cash money fam. They have way more ruthless killers that go un named behind the cameras that's lurking wit him today. Bird became a millionaire in the streets of New Orleans where being somebody brother means nothing fam. The hardest nikkaz get smoked here everyday. So u think they care about a nikka brother. Gangsta was a youngin by the time bird had major money in the streets. And they from 2 different hoods, they brother but they not brothers like slim and baby are. Gangsta was doing his thing in the magnolia and bird was mainly doing his thing in the 13 to the magnolia.

Claim a nikka who clearly not paying u shyt looks up to u. Fam a New Orleans nikka don't look up to no other southern so called bosses. U know why? Cause they not raised like us, they looked on as soft country nikkaz who can be finessed. fukk ask called southern boss, I bet slim or baby or P would never do no hoe shyt like praising jay prince like a deity.

Think about this, when Katrina happen and New Orleans nikkaz spread out across the south they didn't care about nobody territory, they went straight into attack mode on some give me that shyt

Had Houston and ATL terrified, u can amplify that to birdman mindstate. He not gonna give a fukk what no country ass nikka say about him or even fear him :lolbron::russ: be a god but have to go on record and beg for your money multiple times and still not get it.

"Hate the price of fame 'coz it cost too much" (yeah boy)
"And you lame nikkas talk too much" (yeah)
"I'm ready for whatever, somebody better tell 'em" (yeah boy)
"I said I'm ready for whatever, hey hey"

[Verse 1]
Even though my head in the clouds, I'm planted on the pavement
How I walk around, people starin' at amazement
And I play a lot of game on where I be and I ain't playin with it
They so judgmental, everyday they don't understand
If your life was in jeopardy, e'ryday is you tellin me
You wouldn't need weaponry just because of your felony
Consider this at least, I got e'rybody sweatin me
On the streets is people who won't rest unless I rest in peace
Killed my folk a year ago, still in my sleep they threaten me
Paranoia stressin me, ain't nobody protectin me
I'm dealin with the pressure from my partner dyin next to me
No one's arrested, they comin for me eventually
This was all the things I was goin through mentally
This could be the reason I ignored the penitentiary
Now mention them New Orlean nikkas comin in the city
Killin all summer long, ain't nobody payin attention This is from y'all so call king of ATL.

What that have to do with Houston? I was here when they came and left. I can't speak for Atlanta and don't care what happened there.
