They would have been more successful in 2021 because it's far easier to make it as a white rapper now, plus they were dope.

Bubba Sparxxx had more bars than most rappers right now. And he wasn’t even that great back then. It’s just that the rap standard was higher then.

Now it’s more about making a catchy pop song that masquerades as hip hop.

He wouldn’t be a star now because hip hop respects talent even less than it did 15 years ago. He’d have to be more of a singer to be “accepted” in this era.
Word..

Too many overrate having "great melodies" and shyt nowadays.

I'm gonna keep it 100 with you, I NEVER in my life knew anybody who fukked with Eminem until I moved to the suburbs in high school, and even in the suburbs it was just the white kids who fukked with Eminem, brehs and ese's that I knew always thought he was corny as fukk and couldn't relate to his music.

Paul Wall was played in every hood in Dallas in the early 2000's.

well it’s TX , I’m not surprised y’all couldn’t understand Em

Paul Wall yes, Bubba Sparxxx, no. Bubba Sparks was more of a novelty act that backdoored Timbaland beats. Bubba was talented, but I don't really think people would accept his gimmick. He kind of reminds me of Pink in that he was forced to put out a sound that 'wasnt really him'.

Paul Wall was one of those white boys that grew up around blacks and his audience is organic, so Paul Wall would be big in Texas stil. especially if that style of Texas rap was still popular. The difference between Paul Wall and Bubba is Paul Wall that Paul Wall was really him while Bubba transformed into a hillbilly country rapper.
