"EAST COAST is a slice of BREAD & WEST COAST is a slice of BREAD..but the SOUTH IS THE MEAT-JPRINCE

[KENNY DA COOKER]

i mean if that's how he feels i ain't upset about it just because i'm from the east coast. i can understand wanting to let your nuts drag and pop collars a lil something when you got hated on so hard. uncle luke's book "the book of luke" is a great read and really puts in perspective how tough it was for the south. luke was talking about how eric b. and rakim, run dmc, fat boys and salt n pepa were shyttin on them because they were southern. my man rakim allah actually would try to get promoters to cut their time short or not want to let them perform altogether. the music was different and they had those accents so nikkas was clowning and saying it wasn't real hip hop, damn that was disappointing to read yall


so imagine what a southern OG like j prince feels like seeing the southern reign of dominance from 2003 to present day. he deserves to take a few victory laps and stunt on nikkas, frankly i'm type surprised southern hip hop heads on the coli and other internet forums don't do it more to be honest. especially if it means shyttin on nyc specifically, we ain't all bad but we had some serious haters can't front

this is some of the realest shyt i ever seen posted here....

i can attest to this because i didn't really embrace SOUTHERN MUSIC and culture till about 98

i moved down south around 96 and was strictly on my east coast shyt

even prior to that....i would always visit my aunt and spend summers here but was ANTI-SOUTH ....

i would bring my KISS FM..WBLS tapes with Marley Marl , Red Alert and Pete Rock to give me a sense of what seemed like "real music" and culture to me

i was so east coast..i almost got into a fight a cousin from here in the south..cause as we was riding out in my whip to school i told him if it ain't from the 5 boros i don't wanna hear it...and he said well if it ain't from the bay area (he was a big too short and mobbin music fan) he was gonna whip my azz and take my whip


crazy times....but slowly but surely i took the time to actually listen to the music and fell in love with it...

it had to be the Goodie Mob lp's both releases that got me first aquainted to realize BLACK MUSIC IS BLACK MUSIC regardless where it comes from as long as it was good

then finally being of age to go to clubs and seeing them beautiful black women from FLA bootyshaking to the hard bass sounds of uncle luke..magic mike and poison clan DEFINITLY GOT ME OPEN


and more tolerant and less ignorant .....and i must say really made life more pleasent for me....

i truly think RADIO PROGRAMMING was to blame for it....i noticed that when i got a internship at a small AM radio station in south carolina that broadcasted to georgia as well...

and realized it's these "OUTSIDERS" i.e (white radio consultants) programming which region gets to hear certain records and which doesn't

even the distributors where that way....it was hard as fukk to find a Ultramagnetic MC's release in the south record shops

just like it was equaly hard to find a Ghetto Mafia lp in NYC in the north record shops

these "culture vultuers" had us divided.....

and it shouldnt have been that way considering we ALL WERE FAMILY in a literal sense as well...

DJ SCRATCH of NYC is a cousin to DJ MAGIC MIKE of Orlando Florida

MC Shy D of Atlanta was related to Afrika Bambatta of the Bronx

we lost alot of creative exchanges due to these dumb azz regional differences promoted by corporate execs and willie lynch like outsiders

and its sad its still being perpetrated on this board

He got that from D of Trinity Garden or did D get it from him?
I heard D say it first.

At first I thought he was trying to say the west and East is soft but then I heard it and I wasn’t offended.

Son I don’t know where u be at but I see more in ur face hate from the south in real life and on here than I EVER seen from NY. Certain DJ’s and artists n shyt from up here was hatin but that damn sure wasnt how it was for the whole city. If u was dope. We was fukkin wit ya shyt. Matter fact we even was fukkin wit the novelty shyt like 95 South up here. But if yo shyt was wack we called it wack it dont matter where it was from. Plenty of NY and East Coast artists done got straight up kicked off the stage by doper emcees. nikkas was being sensitive acting like it was some shyt against the south. NYC fukked wit all coasts.

Southern hip hop was better back in the day anyway. OutKast was my favorite rap group and they were very talented.

And I don’t like the term Southern when in reality ATL is going 85% of the work.

Honestly I fukk wit every other state more than ATL. Aside from certain acts like Dungeon Family and TIP etc etc. My fav Southern artsts are from the Houston and Memphis area. Then u got Louisiana and NC etc. ATL as a whole has the most novelty acts and biters.

 

[010101]

nikkas will never get over it seemingly

we uptop enjoying everything still top of the charts still top of the forbes

the south gets shown much love yet they still feel slighted

it's just a fact of life the sun rises in the east its natures will we be the flyest don't feel like we flexing on y'all

it's crazy cause nikkas really don't be putting dirt on the south or ot nikkas

thee.city is not speaking on southern/ot situations nikkas just see us & get aggy

make your heart light & let go

[swerve]

I can only think of one artist from the south that's been on top and that's Lil Wayne

Maybe he mean all those one hit wonders

 

[Another Man]

A bunch of men in here discussing another mans meat?

 

[prophecypro]

Cats was eating bread first 25 years then

Right now the game kinda regionless though but for a 10 year stretch they had it too before it became like that

 

[old boy]

They do it on the coli all the time so idk what you talking about.

they do? i mean i see general nyc jokes about our broads having raspy voices or us living in boxes lol... but i'm talking about in regards to hip hop specifically

our biggest rappers' biggest hit is a southern trap record bodak yellow which is a blatant copy of a florida nikkas record. we got a dude from harlem who shouts out houston and rhymes in a juicy j cadence on records. not to mention having a legendary hip hop powerhouse outta queens who said in 2002, "ny nikka soundin like i'm straight up southern" and "i'm from ny whoadie but i know country grammar". hell he even talks in a faux southern accent in his rant at the end of the i run ny track with yayo

if i'm from the south peeping this i'm like
