Now the NY has been irrelevant and dead for over twenty years can we all agree the south killed hip hop?

What has Harlem done in the last 20 years of note besides get gentrified

I tried to be civil, but fukk you nicca, I ain't one of these Coli thugs fakkit

The last two hottest acts to come out of NY were 69 (a snitch) and Ice Spice. No one cares what NY has to say about the game especially after a majority of em co-signed a Canadian over someone within their culture.

I’d say Memphis too ngl

Agree but that's debatable, why I said "clearly".

What I'm saying is that people pit 4 boroughs against "the south" stretching from the west of NY to the east of Cali.

Compare regions, cities, states to each other not half the US to a city.

As a proud Atlien, y’all should have never let us take over the game.

Women run hip hop in the south and we are not talking about respectable young ladies, we are talking about ladies of the night.

Looking back, I’m surprised that my favorite collective, The DF, blew up.

Diddy killed hip hop

Pointin' the finger at the wrong people.
The industry, and rappers and producers playing politics killed NY's relevance in hip-hop.
NY rappers taking bad deals, going pop, and moving into acting and not bringing up a new generation allowed the labels to step in.
When the labels stepped in after figuring out how to profit off hip-hop, they lowered the bar.
It wasn't that Southern hip-hop killed hip-hop, the rise of Southern hip-hop coincided with a lower bar for lyrics and hip-hop authenticity in the industry.
After '99, the hip-hop bar was significantly lowered in favor of the labels pushin' inferior goods in a market that was in high demand for hip-hop.
After the industry started oversaturating the market with watered down surfeit goods, wack rappers with a gimmick, it didn't matter if they had longevity 'cause it would be easier to prevent legacies in hip-hop that would threaten the labels.

The rise of the south coincided with the industry establishing a monopoly in hip-hop.

You saying the South made NY the "Drill capital" of the TRASH music!?

We ain't do that

 

[M4T]

Not the south's fault. New York just got corny in the early 00s. Mims, Fabolous, Papoose and Juelz were not gonna carry NYC through the next decade.

Mims albums were actually good. "I can make a mill saying nothing on the track" was him mocking the state of rap. Bro caught a hit making fun of bama rapp

 

[M4T]

Wack Production killed ny. They either rap on outdated boom bap, or rap with no flo on trap/drill beats. 50 was rapping with ny confidence on west coast beats with a hint of southern draw,but it didnt sound forced. They need a new sound that still incorporates the roots.

Man this dude psycho

@Fresh got a big dikk, breh

 

[Mag Wheel]

Yes. The south definitely killed hiphop. A bunch of cow tipping bamma ass nikkas who can barely speak english destroyed our precious culture. Slow talking farm hands constantly rhyminig the word nikka with nikka. Rakim is turning over in his grave.

 

[Handsome B. Wonderful]

^ smh. At so much about that post.

 

[Street Knowledge]

New York has produced too many stars over the last 20 years to claim irrelevance
