In other words, you have no argument.

Call someone mildly retarded, but say reading posts makes you feel dumb.


THERES NOTHING TO ARGUE ABOUT.

youve never been up north. youre from down south and you stay in the house on top of that. but yet, you feel like you can tell me what we were listening to up here.:snoop:

and then your so-called proof is based off such & such being on the cover of a f*ckin magazine.

kick rocks already.

Here lies the fallacy in your argument:

When you refer to "we", there is no way you're speakinf for an entire coast. I'm not telling you what you were listening to. You're saying that this group had no buzz or impact on the East, yet they were not only on the cover of THE BIGGEST HIP HOP publication of not only The East, but in all Hip Hop. They were also on covers if the biggest Hip Hop publication out West. This says that they had buzz on both coasts regardless of what you and the people you were around were listening to. Additionally it means, that enough people in that region were checking for them to warrant one or both of them scoring a cover of the biggest publications in Hip Hop. Furthermore, you couldn't really put a regional stamp on them.

But being on a magazine cover doesn't mean you're nationally known. Not when the cover 8Ball was on was basically the first "Freshman" type magazine cover. Would say half of the guys from the XXL Freshman covers were or are nationally known? the whole point of that cover is to put people on to MCs that are on the come up. The Source one was slightly different as almost all the artist had a group album out before they got the cover but we're branching off to solo joints.

I wouldn't say Cam'ron or Big Pun was nationally known back then either (depends on if the cover was before or after CP dropped I can't remember) there's a reason why Kurupt, DMX and Silkk were on the actual front cover and the rest were on the fold out, because some of those guys weren't nationally known enough to carry a magazine cover.

This wasn't a freshman type deal though. Silkk and Eightball had solo and group material out. You can't compare a XXL Freshman cover to that Source cover. Very few XXL Freshman have even sniffed Lord Tariq & Peter Gunz fame let alone some of the guys with multiple hits and/or hit albums under their belts.

The point of a cover is also to sell magazines and you aren't putting artists on the cover just to put people onto them especially when you're billing them the next generation. That's putting their rep and credibility on the line.

That Source cover isn't the only one they graced.

I'm not even saying they were superstars, but they weren't regional either. Scarface, though bigger than Ball & G was never a superstar either, but you couldn't say he was regional.

I'm not speaking for myself, you dumb fukk.
I MYSELF WAS INDEED LISTENING TO 8BALL & MJG.

but they just were NOT poppin up east. and UGK were virtual nobodies. lol. the fact that these groups never even toured the east coast should tell you something right there, dumbass.

lol. you think these magazines are really representing the streets that their offices are located in like that? youre so stupid. if that were the case, then the LOX would've easily made the cover.

I'm officially putting you back on ignore now. CLICK.

You are speakong for yourself. Thats the ooint. You aren't a group. You aren't spokes person for an entire coast.

You're telling me that this group wasn't poppin, how did you discover them?

You're wrong about Ball & G never touring the East Coast. They were on the road with Bone and Lil Jon and they had East Coast dates.
