Was Atlanta influenced by the West Coast in the early 1990's

The influence from the south on the west is minimal...in the 90's the West Coast influenced everybody....I haven't really seen southern influence on the west coast.......

You tripping from DOC to 3-2 influence all that Deathrow stuff. Doctor Dre Next Episode was a rip off of Street Military's Next Episode. Dre was basically imitating 3-2 player talk on one those records. 3-2 influenced Snoop dog earlier flow.

And your point is? fukk a song breh, my boy out in LA got a '75 Caprice candy apple green mounted the fukk up with a monster under the hood. He let me push it and I almost wrecked it fishtailing out the Carl's Jr. on MLK & Vermont. Please tell me whats more southern than a old school Chevy on 4's? And my patna aint never even left Cali before, let alone come out this way. The cultute sharing goes both ways. Miss me with that bullshyt breh.

Some of y'all in here acting like nikkas don't travel. A plane ticket costs what some y'all nikkas waste in the clubs on the wknds. It's not that serious.

What are you trippin on. My post was just a example of the theme of this thread in which we discussed the westcoast influence on the south in the 90's. No to mention Kingpin SKinny pimp as said that MC Ren was a big influence on his flow. There was a southern influence on the west in the 2000's.

All I know is that Miami has the most unique sounding hip hop due to the Bahamian influence.

Talking general, not hip hop. Most of that influence is in the past for obvious reasons. And if we wanna talk more recent, Southern car culture has spread its way out west for a minute now.

Lingo, dreads. I remember when cash money started running things in the late 90's and early 2000's, there was alot these clicks in high schools calling themselves headbussas, cash money ballers,. You can also mention lil jon influence on the modern cali sound like DJ Mustard, Sorry Jarnari and those guys.

 

[Neuromancer]

This is obvious. I thought Kast was from the west when I first heard them.

What is the earliest “southern” funk song you got an example of? When I think about it most examples are midwest acts or at most what you could call Midsouth.

james brown + his drummers were all southerners. This from 1962 is probably the earliest of the james brown concept



a little extra

 

[IllmaticDelta]

James brown got that funk sound from a New Orleans group called the Meters. Even then you have to look at other groups like Dyke & The Blazers who was the first artist to use funk/funky in a song title. Dyke was from buffalo and was a big influence on Rick James.



2: 04 Sounds like a Clyde Suttblefield drunk pattern

james was aware of new orleans influenced drummers but he didn't get his sound from the meters. The Meters have that classic 2nd line sound...james brown was on some other revolutionizing shyt musically




also, dyke and the blazers were influenced by james brown

 

[IllmaticDelta]

I cited the Meters in a earlier post in this thread. However I dont know how much James was influenced by them because he was out and had a established sound before the Meters dropped (1969) His rhythm section was definitely influenced by the New Orleans sound (as a whole), but alot of that funk came from the Baptist Church. I read a good book about the genesis of the James Brown sound of the mid 60s in which they clearly defined it.

Dyke and the Blazers were directly influenced by James as well btw
