For the answerers...I think he's talking about the NEW southren Rappers that are out & coming out with all this suck *** snap music!
But damn yo...i feel you on that...i used to live in Brooklyn(Flatbush) back than...and basically I lived in Cali & Florida since then...and Brooklyn is where it's at if you Love the REALNESS of hip hop...especially if you go to Downtown BK around Fulton Street where the record stores are...you'll see what they're playing all the time..it's always something out of New York..not none of that suck a-s-s Candy dance music that's on MTV/BET!
NYC is where Hip Hop was born....and it's funny how the rest of the Country's(even world's) taste of Snap & 2-step music can't change 1 City.
Mims tried to switch NYC to that kinda music...but it didn't work....and I'm glad it didn't :-)
PLEASE DONT DISS ALL THE SOUTHERN RAPPERS LIKE
DEAD PREZ
SCARFACE
AND
GOODIE MOB
REAL HIP HOP LIVES UNDERGROUND...
you sound angry.
anger clouds judgement.
everyplace (east west south midwest) has good rappers.
everyplace has bad rappers (isn't mims from ny?).
i'll support my argument with 1 track.
if you hate this song, then you don't know hip hop. period.
and by the way, as much as you 'hate southern rappers' these 2 blows the doors off 99% of current ny music

i'm not gonna defend wack rappers or deny ny it's due as the birthplace. but get over it... hip hop is nationwide
I agree w/you 100% since hip-hop hit the bling bling era the grene or just mainstream has lost its realness. Rappers now are marketed by corperations so instead of using talent rappers just hide behind an image instead of talent. There are alot of dope MC's in the underground but no one wants to hear consious lyrics. Even if you look at Common it wasn't until Kanye did his beats for the BE album that he got noticed by more people that like pop music. As far as Piles go I hate him. I'm from the south and only rappers from the so called dirty that Ive ever respected are The Geto Boys,Scarface, Arrested Development, and Outkast. I usually get dissed for not liking southern rap but I just feel there'e no real rhyme flow in it. RIP Biggie.
Pimp C said it best, The song is called Quit hate'n the South. I think he made just for you. All them rappers you mentioned are str8 lames, big l who? Nas & Pac... They really bout the 2 worth listening too SON. Hate on Hater
yea BREED you are really dumb for sayin that shizz, especially when u sayin "big l who?" and all that other stuff, your lame. i totally agree with you neusa f. but not all southern rappers are crap. ya still got scarface, outkast, geto boys, ugk, dead prez, and some more. but yea i love east coast rappers, especially ones from new york.

Hip-Hop has evolved and your just stuck in the 80s and 90s Kanye, Jay Nas, Luda, Wayne< T.I, Game. Missy, Kim Fab. and many more still mkae hip hop music it's very well and alive I was norn and live in BK just cause the style is chaning dont mean it aint hip hop ... and your full of **** even though NY people dont mess with plies blood wont be dripping smh the real hip hop started off positive by the way not with thungs
Everyone sampling everyone and everyones featuring on everyones joints.
Anyone can make beats and release songs independantly now.
In the mid 90s artists didn't need cameos etc and artists normally worked with label mates if they did. East -west -south colabs didn't really happen.
nowdays these styles have meshed - some good/ most bad.
Labels ruled then, Louds roster was as good as any
wu - mobb depp, xzibt, flex. We all know death rows legendary fam, def jam also w mef, red, mr smith wasn't too bad either.
south was underground, scarface and geto boys held it for some time and eventually the likes of 8 ball & mjg, goodie mob, and outkast got the south established on the map. then came the likes of ludacris-ehhhrr.....
Hard to deny west didn't own hip hop in the early to mid 90s.
From the gangsta rap roots of nwa, dre, cube, cypress, mista grim, digital underground - thru to funkdoobie, pharcyde, snoop, pac,
New York took over mid 90s thru to the millenium w the introductions of nas, biggie, wu fam finally arrived on the scene as solo artists, mobb deep, busta, all following in the foot steps of p.e, LL, slick rick, biz, beastie boys and rakim.
Once the 90's ended, Real hip hop was over. Hip hop hasn't been real since before 2000.
