I don't think Southern people be dissing up north music we just rep ours so hard yall think we dissing. A lot of us grew up on northern music so we have respect for it. It's like now we got something to rep cause for the longest, it was just West Coast & East Coast and no one from the south really was represented. Now for a change, we can represent. I never really heard anyone or any artist from the south dissing East Coast music.
And just because it's different don't mean it's wrong. The north and the south are completely different places so we are gonna experience different things. This means that our stories and lyrics are gonna be different.
Or you mad that Southern music is so popular now, or are you mad because you heard someone from the South dissing the East Coast and yall music?
i'm sorry to say this, but Drama King... you contradicting yourself... you claimin you like southern music, but you put it down in the same sentence... everybody who knows hip/hop knows the movement started in NY... the best lyricists are out of NY, the greatest artists are out of NY... NY will always be the birthplace and the kings of hip hop... nobody is taking that away... but just like everything... things move out of the birthplace and different forms of music come about... which has been stated so many times, but you get that NY state of mind and jump on the defensive and put the southern music down again... i was always listening to up North music and i really wasn't into the southern rap until my senior year of HS... i grew up on the North, and it took me three years of being in NC to change my tune about southern music.... music is like the weather... it changes... a lot.... it's 2005... and the southern style is in... nothing is taken away from the great city of New York.... but a lot of y'all have to just accept it and keep on moving... that's just life... :arrow:
NAW DAWG.....
Hip Hop may have started New York, but the roots came from the south. Why? Because all the niggra's from NY migrated north FROM the south during the 50's & 60's. All black music has southern roots homeboy. Listen to the book...not that nikka in the rap video!
^My sister's mother in law who's now deceased told us back in the day they use to do what we call freestyle now. They use to parties and when the guy's got **** they use to "dirty dozen" rhythmically.

cosigns but there are a lot of other southern rappers that can spit to but some haven't released albums lately such as UGK, Scarface, Andre 3000 among others. Everyone has a time, a place, a reason, a season, and this is the season for the South no disrepect intended because a lot of southern rappers quote rappers from up north as influences.
