T.I. "If 50 was from the Midwest he would be Nelly"

[CrimsonTider]

Like I said before. TIP outside of Trap Musik and Urban Legend have that same issue as Jada. And Kiss is a whole legend out here stop actin like he some scrub against TIP. TIP got more hits. But so did Fab and we saw what happened wit that. TIP TO ME. Has a classic album. But TIP don’t have no perfect album. He follows the same formula that Kiss uses. A track for everything, club bangers, love joints, street joints, deep joints, etc etc.

TI has few great albums

what is a perfect album? Just cause you skip a song doesn’t mean I do

U right. I can say the same shyt about the shyt YOU don’t like as well. But guess what? Regardless. TI rarely has an album without straight up wack songs on it. And u right. I shouldn’t have had perfect. I should’ve said perfectly cohesive.

King and Paper trail are great albums

Dime Trap and Trouble man are very cohesive

Nelly ever respond to this? I'd be more offended if I was Nelly than I would if I was 50.

TIP didnt even have to deal with east coast bias like that. those days were dying out by the time he blew up, and it was definitely over when he was having his big run.

A MF who blew in the 2000s can't use that New York excuse. He gotta be either trollin' or scapegoatin'.

Yeah, by the 2000's, NY was far more accepting of Southern MC's. There were more collabos and it wasn't as much clowning on the accents. T.I. especially didn't have to deal with it because he wasn't a crunk artist (which still had a stigma on it) and he actually came with skill. Luda was accepted with open arms as was Jeezy.

It was never about accents bro. With NY back then it all came down to actually having mic skills & if you didn't you were called wack. Some regions are still hurt & sensitive because of that.

TI, Jeezy, & especially Luda all had skills & were accepted. Just like NY accepted Face back in the day & Death Row as whole (especially prime Snoop)

No one cares about what NY accepts

Was Crunk affected by NY not accepting?

That's a whole different topic

But Crunk was weak which came & went like Hyphy on the west coast

Crunk didn’t come and go

you still have crunk songs getting sampled today

If it ain't dead then it's on life support

 

[FeloniousMonk]

Can't compare.

On the flip, If you took Nelly and placed him n Queen's, would it be the same?

Nope.

Nelly was marketing to woman and made songs for women.

Fif was for the streets and did some some pop records.

Just because it’s not the prevailing sound doesn’t mean it “came and went”
