Had to search for the last three because I remember there was a late St Louis movement during that time.

Feels like I'm running on walls and I don't wanna touch the ground :ohlawd:

I thought XV was the next one up and he just disappeared.
I did a beat for him a while back

I remember this whole Era. Low-key to me Little Bother left everyone behind.
I think Little Brother/Justus league came right before the Blog rap era. What’s crazy is quite a few artists cite Little Brother as an influence in some way or worked with a member(Wale, Big Krit, J. Cole, Drake, Kendrick Lamar)

This is correct. Those Justus League mixtapes and LB era were about 2002-2007 right before the blog era took off. They influenced that entire generation.

Kid Sister was an interesting case, because she raps and does a bit of harmonizing, but she wasn't referred to as a rapper in the media :jbhmm:

Blows up with having Kanye on her single "Pro Nails" and her Kiss Kiss Kiss mixtape was pure piff, with Gucci Mane on "Gucci Rag Top"



the remix with Danny Brown was unexpected, but i fux with it

would've been interesting if she did a few songs with Azealia Banks after 212 dropped, but i think KS dropped off just as AB was ascending

last i checked, she had a project where she renamed herself Jane Jupiter

Does Danny Brown qualify for the blog rap era as well?
