Define anti intellectualism... what does that even mean? The east\west promoted cocaine selling and had a whole rap "gangsta" beef before the sout got their feet wet in mainstream rap.... so again, give me examples of "anti intellectualism.....
the rejection of anything displaying the product of education or intellect

in the context of this discussion nikkas that act like they are allergic to words

you are right up top definitely did promote street fukkery pushing narcotics acts of violence etcetera the difference is nikkas was doing that & still pushing education as being fly

making a sport out of flexing your vocabulary to talk bullshyte eloquently

when NYC was at the wheel hip~hop rap as a genre sported a vocabulary 2000 plus words deeper than any other genre

in the history of recorded music motherfukkers displayed absolutely top tier craft the best wordsmith's to breathe air were coming from our culture

motherfukkers started hollering fukk all that rappity rap shyte imma hustler not a rapper bytches can't pop their p*ssy to that yaddayadda

iight so the whole world is on that now literacy is diving cross country the culture is struggling & the youth who should be the hope to save this shyte are not mentally equipped to do so

let's all accept that shyte is what it is y'all got it..........

It's funny because Master P took his catchphrase & possible rap name from a group out of Harlem in '82 called the The Masterdon Committee...

Press play



And in '86, it was 2 dudes from Queens named The Showboys that inspired Mannie Fresh...



Before you know it, in the 90s, you had the Jazzy sound, Boom Bap, Puffy loop sample heavy productions, etc

In just 2 decades NYC production styles was moving by the speed of light.

I think the South would've been happy with the early pioneer sound, but it was old news up here. The innovation was insane during that time period. 😞

😆 Has Master P done anything original in his rap career?

I'm from NC.

We weren't "Dirty South" during my development. We were pretty solidly East Coast.

Ski Beatz is from my neighborhood. N Tyce (Deadly Venoms) goes to my church and I saw her in Wal like two weeks ago. Little Brother was that underground East Coast feel. Black Sheep met in NC.. meaning they prolly had like minded homies while in NC.

At one time there was only East Coast rap so obviously every region has that in their Hip Hop DNA

nikkaz will list the lyrical southern artists and not mention that often times....the South didn't like them more than a Plies or Boosie.

We'll brag to other regions that Outkast abd Dungeon family were kyrical....while they weren't more popular than artists "spitting that real shyt" in ATL.

As a southern ni99a im not longer afraid to admit that we put the final nail in the hip hop coffin. The west coast purchased the coffin with gangster rap. NY put the body in the coffin with "im not a rapper, im a hustler". The Durty South put the nails in the coffin by making hip hop NOTHING but a hustle. Don't give af if they cant rap...long as the ni99a was spittin some real shyt and had drip.

They completely missed Jay Z's point, he was talking about dumbing down for everyone. Honestly if I were a southern rapper I'd be pissed if they mentioned that they liked my music, because they're basically saying your stuff is dumb enough for them to enjoy. Geto Boys, T.I, Outkast, and Goodie Mob all rapped about real shyt.
