Did Jay z destroy it by proclaiming he is a Rapper not a Hustler?

Did Nas destroy it when he tookon the ESCOBAR moniker?

Did Puff destroy it when he claimed he didnt write rhymes he wrote checks while promoting the cocaine dealer themes of BIG...THE LOX...SHYNE??

At the end of the day you cant point the finger at Southern Trap Rap without holding East Coast Coke RAP :manny:

Yeah, nikkas cant rap but get paid to be a rapper. Jay was a hustler but he was nice. Esco was and is that nikka. The south got sicc of being down talked and made it about something other than skill. ANYTHING and everything but skill. Its not the south tho, more like atlanta. Atlanta shyt is the worse. Whens the last time u said a atlanta nikka was cold? Cyhi gets ignored and tbh hes one of very few that even belongs in the genre. So no not trap per se but atlanta killed it. In my opinion

The south elevated hip hop
G-Funk & Boom Bap records ain't popping like that no more. And the chipmunk soul samples Kanye West & Just Blaze kinda joints ain't popping like that either. Most the shyt people jam now has some sort of southern influence.
