I'm from Texas don't be making jokes about my state nikka. But yeah TX rap is basically dead, it's the industry not the rappers. Htown nikkas still making music but not as many mixtapes anymore but that goes true for evy not just Texas

Texas rap ain't dead, it's just self contained like the bay.

That shyt dead bro. Yall let all these regions jack your shyt and yall didn't want to hold down the "houston sound"

 

[CarltonJunior]

I blme Bun for that, he wanted to "advance" the texas sound but ended up holdin it back by workin wit different regions. That, and him and Pimp C adopted a lot of louisiana nikkas (see boosie/webbie for #1 example)

 

[Big Mark]

As far as Im concerned, its been dead since the geto boys stopped making music together. I live here and it now and not impressed.

nikka I'm from NYC. Never lived in TX what are you talking about?

My point still remains. Texas and the bay are self contained ecosystems in hip hop. And the fact that your unaware doesnt change that.

 

[CashmereThoughts]

NYs rap scene fell off HARD and you wanna talk about the south?

Lets be real here NY aint shyt compared to how it was back in the day.

Looks like the gentrification is killing the rap scene too.

We def making more noise right now that Houston. In fact the only places making more noise right now is ATL and LA.

nah u cant really blame him n pimp ...back then...they had no weight...

but they did look out for their homeboys...3-2 , botany boys, dj dmd nem all got plaques fukkin with them cats...

and at that time...super tight, rydin dirty..texas went from maybe 600 labels..to 20,000..when southwest whole sale was around..texas ate good...but when it went bankrupt...every body felt it...it went from 20,000...to got damn me 5-10

bun learned the game from the shyt.pimp c went thru with master p...pimp was the one outside of texas..texas didnt need pimp at the time..so he was in atlanta..fukkin with the dungeon family, in louisiana fukkin with c-loc n concentration camp...thats how pimp...got wind of boosie...pimp also had field mob at one point in time on trill..u can ask smoke n sean j...if pimp signed em..and had them boys livin with him when he lived in atlanta..

bun pimp..showed the local nikkas luv...pimp moreso than bun...at one point bun was suckin cash money dikk...pimp unlike bun..would work with different regions yeah..but he also showed a shyt load of love to the nikkas in texas...pimp came thru for alot of local jokers in both dallas and houston...

bun soon as nikkas started recognizin him as lyricist..n jay z was usin his bars in some of his songs..became a diva...n was only lookin out for self...n when the industry started jackin texas shyt...pimp stood up....and the whole time..pimp was lettin em know... bun right next to em...pullin his shirt tale tellin him to sit down..no u messin up our money..they are my friends...

he didnt really wanna capatilize n make bread with pimp...thats why soon as pimp died..he wasted no time...trademarking ugk n trill...so he can pick n choose who he wants to file a lawsuit on...killa kyleon...had a couple shirts designed...for himself..n cats was fiendin for em...but he never followed thru...killa could have made a killin off

...3-5 yrs later...mixtapeunit.com had

... i remember at 1 of the shows pimp had soon as he was off lock...somebody approached pimp to get em sign it...pimp looked at it...said where u get this hoe from...skateboard p gone be mad than a bytch...but this texas shyt nikka...head over to mixtapeunit...n get the unofficial trillionaire t


pimp die...bun sent cease n desist letters threaten to sue..ugk aint never gave shyt to fans really outside of some stickers n a fukkin lighter...
