The South has the most non-lyrical mumbling bammas but also the most hard hitting emotional songs.
Odd combination.

We didn't have to say much to be felt. Grandmama humming spirituals or your uncle strumming a guitar singing without words but you feel the struggle in it. It's not that we can't be eloquent, it's just that sometimes words don't lend itself to accurately express the soul.

South had songs that could really put you in a mood better than other coasts. I dunno how they make their music more depressing than other coasts.

minds playin tricks = different side effects of smoking fry

I’m a big JL fan but I think they were missing that southern feel. Or they tended to shy away from it. Cunninlynguist to me still had southern elements to their boom bap. Especially On Dirty Acres.
