they already fell the fukk off, aint nobody from the south moving no damn units

the top rappers are hov, kanye, j cole, kendrick lamar eminem and drake aint none of them from the south

THANK YOU! It's like people just spew the same rhetoric about the South being on top, with no facts to back it up.

None of the top 5 rappers in the game are from the south. And aside from Wayne and Ross, none of the top 10 rappers in the game are from the south. And both of them are towards the bottom of the top 10.

Most consistent rapper from the South right now got his image from a West Coast drug kingpin and Brooklyn's KONY. His worst songs are when he tries to make Southern music. shyt is kinda funny.

Playing dumb? Explain how they're on top. What defines falling off if lack of record sales isn't it? If NY had millions of rappers out and none of them sold records, everyone and their Mom would be saying "NY fell off" but the same thing is happening to the south, and people want to ignore it. Nobody in the south is selling records. Future's debut album sold 50K copies the first week. How are they on top? Based off what? What is the criteria for being on top?

b-b-but the south runs the radio :russ:

I define it on what black people listen to. Eminem could sell 10 million records but black people not listening to him. And the majority of black people fukk with the southern sound.

We (speaking in general terms) listen to mostly: Kendrick, Jay, Kanye, Asap Rocky, Drake, Ross, Meek, Wale, and some random acts here and there. Who are these southern artists you think nikkas is listening to? you think nikkas copped the Migos tape or something?

Most of the southern artists get play in clubs and stuff, but that doesn't mean anything at all. South fell off a couple years ago my G.

well lets begin by saying, although the south is on the radio...there is nothing great coming from it. How long have they dominated the radio and how many universally accepted albums have they produced?
