Yea breh, shyt realy do get funky out there. nikkas dont know FT worth use to have one da highest murder rates in the da country
I remember hearing that about Fort Worth had one of the highest murder rates in the country along with San Antonio in the 1990s. Fort Worth was refereed to as a "cowtown" back then (and still is) and also was/is quite conservative in terms of politics.
I live in dallas & yeah I've known about ft worth or murda worth's gangs culture for years & Its no different than other places I lived or seen.
As far as their music, it's garbage. Nothing orginal about that shyt & any nikka holding a gun can kill.
The only & last great MC that came from ft worth or just the DFW in general was Twisted Black. He was next to blow & could lyrically hang with anyone in the rap game period & he wasn't a gimmick or tried to sound like any one else. That's always been the problem with DFW music, I remember back with DSR was coming up, they tried to sound like old suc members & they just put out a brand new album trying to sound like future..smh Or big chiefa trying to emulate rick ross & slim thug, it never ends with these dudes.
Oh shyt! I remember Twisted Black. Twisted Black was supposed to blow up big on TVT Records in 2006 until he got indicted on drug possession charges by the undercover federal agents (DEA) in Midland. Twisted Black was supposed to be the Snoop Dogg of Texas at the time. Everybody was fukking with him. Rappers from all regions of Texas. Even Bavu Blakes was cool with him. I still remember his music from high school. You took me back with that post.
As for Dallas music altogether, Dallas and Fort Worth music wasn't garbage until the mid 2000s with DSR coming up trying to imitate/mimck Screw music and pass it off as something else. Dallas and Fort Worth were on the gangsta rap and G-Funk tip from 1991 until 2003 or so with rappers like MC E-Rock, Six2, Twisted Black, Coop MC, T.I.C., P.I.G., Erotic D, DJ Hard, Ron C, K-Roc, Mr. Pookie, Mr. Lucci, Blo-Fly, Kottonmouth, The DOC, Ganksta C, Cappella, and so many others that I could post as I am typing this post because I don't want to make this post a "TD;LR post".
With that said, Forth Worth's got Six2. He was affiliated with Dr. Dre, The DOC, and Timbaland at one time. Heck Timbaland even signed him back in 2005 but shyt didn't pan out for whatever reason. Still, Six2 is underrated and overlooked as fukk in Texas Rap.
Forth Worth's also got T.Cash who's underrated and overlooked as fukk. (At least by the major labels in mainstream music.) Other than that, T.Cash is the hottest most promoted rapper from Fort Worth next to Go Yayo, T.I.C., and C Struggs. I swear people keep sleeping on T.Cash. I keep seeing his flyers and posters down here in Austin.

Too bad. They not going to start a movement without a unique sound. They may have a track here and there that pops off but for the entire area DFW area to be put on they need to create a new sound. The Atl did it with Trap, Houston did it with screw, Chicago did it with Drill. etc. These doing doing trap and drill just going to get lost in the sauce.
If I remember correctly, the Dallas Hip Hop/Rap scene did for a while mimic Miami Bass and called it Dallas Bass with rappers from the group Nemesis being the pioneers. You had Bhumble Bhe, DJ Snake, Ron C, Kottonmouth, Blo-Fly, Twisted Black, Bavu Blakes, Coop MC, T.I.C, DJ Hard, Big Al, MC Azim, Davina, and P.I.G. producing the sounds of Dallas Bass.
