You're from Clarksdale?
My mommas momma side of the family....that and Memphis was like our go to for family reunions and I would post up out there for the summers as a kid.

I always thought this song was dope
And found it funny that you could hear the pain in David Banners voice that black folks left Mississippi and the deep south the fukk behind and now don't even mention or claim the state even though most of us got roots and family there
Even when the rappers shout out a dozen states and cities in their songs they don't mention Mississippi
We from a place
Where ya used to come in the summertime
Now y'all don't mention us in your rhymes
we kin folk
It's funny as hell because it's true. I absolutely did used to visit the deep south with my grandma during the summer as a kid , having fun all day with all my country ass cousins, then went back to the city at the end of the summer where my friends would be like "so where were you all summer?" and I'd be like "In Mississippi" and they'd be all
I never considered how shyt like that made my country ass cousins feel
And then that shyt talking at the end of the song
Where yo grandmama from nikka?
Yo ol one generation moved away slave ass
booty fukk ass
punk ass bytch
Now come on back home get u something to eat
Ol punk ass nikka
Same here.....Chicago to Biloxi Beach, MS with gramma and her sister (
).

Most of the black people in cali are from that gulf coast/texas/louisianna/mississippi region that's why there is heavy overlap roots wise with many of those midwest regions.
it's the reason the first place jazz was big outside new orleans was Chicago because of the migration
same thing with mississippi delta blues going to chicago and becoming electric blues->modern rock

The topic was answered. Mississippi gave us the father of all american music, HipHop included.
Rappers of mississippian roots were even mentioned (nas, rick ross, nate dogg, snoop, david banner, big krit etc...)

Stop entertaining these nikkas cuz
nikkas so white washed it's crazy.
nikkas don't know where they came from and wonder why theyre where they at. Your roots, get hip to um and embrace um.
That banner quote bout us being kin folk is powerful as fucc and all facts
