Nikki hotter than j Cole (whose from the south) but got outsold by j cole. Okay
If the South ain't running it, then no one is. Either way, the South been on the main stage for 15+ years. Any shade you're trying to throw is irrelevant. Let me know when that new Craig Mack drops though.
15 years?

Its 2015. Sales mean NOTHING. Most real hip hop heads haven't payed for an album since like 2000 anyway. I've never payed for an album period.
Right now its about whose doing the most shows. And like someone else said game is really up for grabs. Not really any one region totally shytting on another. And honestly i don't think the game will ever be like that again. Rap is too big now. Back in the 90s it was a tight knit community. So when one region took the reigns they really took the reigns. Cuz all them nikkas was like working together and all their sounds would be similar. Now a days with the internet everyone is connected. You got NY nikkas with chicago sounds and shyt. Rap is officially a free for all.

nikka r u really listing singles that no1 outside the south was bumping
75% of the songs u posted were regional trash
The south is the king of the 1 hit wonder
The south hit its peak n the mid to late 2000s
After that they fell off, n now its over
reign on the top was shorter then leprechaun
Ok, and I'm going to mention albums/artists that got alot of play, not necessarily what's good. There's a difference between NY being in a better place back then as opposed to them being on top. I could actually make a case for the outh going back to 1997, but let's do 2000.
