why do country dudes act like they didn't kill hiphop

[DrX]

when the east coast had it, that shyt was amazing....the shyt nikkas was spitting back then was complex....u really had to have skill and practice ur craft....dudes was dropping gems and putting words together that would put most ivy league grads too shame

the west coast was aight, they was making some bullshyt but some of it was hott

then yall mothafukkas dumbed the shyt down to the point of no return. nobody dont even respect the artform no more, thats why cacs mock it. U southern nikkas should be ashamed of yall selves man....yall killed the music

 

[B86]

The East Coast fans jumped ship too, so obviously the South has been putting out better music ever since

 

[Sccit]

the peak of hip-hop was 93-96 when the west was on top

Yup...we had better lyricists, Ras, e 40, kurupt, pharcyde, lynch, Aceyalone , x raided, hiero, snoop in his prime, Saafir and the hobo junction, e rule, etc

 

[JamesCannon]

Problem them boom bap beats aint have no bass

Soon as P and 36 came through with some bass it was over for that

 

[Poh SIti Dawn]

Because they didn't, NY did when they allowed whites to judge and distribute hip hop.

 

[Yoda]

[Yoda]

rap fell off when the west coast was no longer on top...when the west was on top, every1 and they mama was tryna jock our sound, and thats when shiet had some flavor and all was good. now, they jockin the south and we all lose. no disrespect to ugk, 8ball+mjg, 36, outkast, geto boys, devin, zro, big lurch, krit, and all the dirty south legends out there

86-96

 

[Sccit]

86-92 was great, but 93 was when the mainstream really started takin notice, and by 95, classics was bein pumped out left n right.

This.

The lack of bass in the music of that 90's era NY "boom bap" shyt make their music sound dull, lifeless and outdated.

Because they didn't, NY did when they allowed whites to judge and distribute hip hop.

Also THIS

And this isn't brought up enough...REP sent.

Most of New York's biggest rappers & rap groups particularly from the 90's, like Nas, Wu-Tang, Mobb Deep, Jay etc. were given record deals without having to 1st prove that they were able to create a homegrown buzz and move units in masse without the benefit of major cac-run labels, and their promotional/distribution channels and financing. They were given these deals because some old cac in a suit & tie liked their music and thought they would be able to sell these rappers to the predominately white rap consumer without any real beforehand proof of their drawing power...While Southern rap groups like Geto Boys, 3-6 Mafia, 8Ball & MJG, No Limit/P, Cash Money/Hot Boys created their fan bases from scratch, and were able to move 100,000's of units BEFORE their record deals primarily off the black consumer, without any access to the financing and promotional/distribution channels that their NY contemporaries had... Is there any wonder why Southern based artists have gotten the most play in THE STREETS nationwide for the past 20 or so years? They make music that real nikkas could feel...while NY based rappers generally make music that cacs/cornball brothers find relatable.

Waits for NY posters to come in and fight against this

So the like of the LOX and MOP make music for cornballs and CACs? Because they rap on boom bap beats?
