But people in the north east weren't just listening to NY hip hop, not where I'm from or the people I grew up around.
Dude we weren't. I'm the same age as Asap Mob whos 2 main members make southern influenced hip hop. And straight up.. I was listening to just as much southern hip hop as I was NY hip hop around 15-16.
Hip hop is not exempt from the same shyt that happened with rock and electronic music.
in Boston in the 80s you had bands playing a sound that distinct to them. Then you got bands from the Midwest liking that sound and doing it. And now in the 2010s bands from ALL over are playing that style of punk. In Europe there was post punk and you had new wave now bands from the U.S and all over playing the same kinda sound. You can't put barriers on that shyt. You can't put barriers on what people are like and influenced by. shyt goes in cycles, too.
A distinct sound might or come back and then be hot, then another sound comes back. In the 00s metally sounding hardcore was all over. Now, there's a lot of bands playing 80s sounding boston influenced punk and noise rock with some European influence ..post punk/new wave influence.. It happens.
That's music dude. That's art. Hip hop is not exempt from influencing others in others part of the country and world. Once you put your music out there and people are listening to it, it's expected to happen and it does.
If someone from Cali listens to mostly 90s NY hip hop, who's to say they are wrong for making NY sounding hip hop and dressing like a NYer? the first time I heard the Pharcyde I thought they were from NY.

Nah I was talking about Chicago lol
Another Chicago thread, eh? How about you don't give the city attention, five star threads, and constant mention? Coli has a weird obsession with a city everyone claims to be better then....we don't even start Chi threads.
The music yes-ish....but the slang and worldplay is ours. Drill music not trap.
edit: we did also swagger jack the hair, I admit
....so you make a thread telling people to stop swagga jacking your city, only to turn around and admit that your city did the same thing musically to ESTABLISH its scene?
And I have no dog in the fight, breh, I'm just sayin'....that was wild contradictory.

Basically Hip Hops influence has come full circle. The south's influence has impacted the midwest and yes even the mecca of Hip Hop.
exactly.
i been saying this but people constantly just it ignore and just complain and don't get that that's what happens with music. it happens to every genre/sub genre of music under the sun. hip hop is not exempt from that. you can't put a fence around trap and drill music and expect it to just stay in the south and chicago when people from other regions are listening to it.
*L*E*G*A*C*Y*
Done.
Pardon my french...but I'm sick and tired of this ignorant n!gger shyt being praised by our people...
And we wonder why we going backwards while everyone else is moving forwards.

You're right - since I'm not a mentally retarded, unemployed gangbanger, living a totally pointless life, I MUST be an 80 year old white dude.
Living to 80 and having a meaningful life >>>>>> dying before 18, and not contributing anything to the world
