Yeah we do need Laffy Taffy, what females and da ladies gonna dance to in da club or in they car, they can't dance to Nas, Hip Hop is Dead, you need different origin's of rap music to make hip hop, if da whole rap game was just east-coast or hardcore I mean come on man, I ain't even gotta say da rest...

I feel pimp on that, everybody deserve a chance to shine. I feel they need more respect for the south. That was nas saying hip hop is dead but he couldn't of meant in the south. It's more alive then it's even been. I listen to the east coast and the north. And not just dipset, I listen to Corey Gunz, Saigon, Cormega, Mysonne, Big Pun and etc. All of the east for years. You never heard the south trippin, it's just New York think Hip Hop is there's, and don't won't nobody else 2 shine. If thats so they should give me my money back,dawg. They hated on the West, and now they hate on the south.

I agree 100%. You choose what you like, but you can't take the "need" away. There has to be club music, street music, political music, and etc. Everybody can't be the same and you can't expect it.

The South Got Something To Say
written by MrMontana, March 04, 2007
Well plain and simple back in the 90's at the source awards when east coast and west coast were feuding they boo the south when oukast came on stage. Im from the south and i like up north music but we need that crunk style of hip hop because every coast has different flavor to the game. if you don't like the South like fat joe said change ya game to south paw

Yea ya'll south dudes need to just go to school cause ya'll makin us look retarded. I mean I feel pimp c and a few other niggas from the south but you gotta be blind if you really think our generation is benefitting from all this retarded niggas prancing around snappin fingers saying the same bullshit. what the fuck is woo gray...It's would grain kicko. And I'm tired of hearing bout that for real ya'll won't even take the time to fully pronounce the simple minded words you repeat so much. I'm sorry I wish ya'll could find a way to get ya bounce on wit out sounding so LD. HOLLA
You can have beats and lyrics too!!!
written by misc704, March 09, 2007
Yea i get mad when folks hate on the south, but a lot of shit is bull shit... What is track 1 on jeezys CD about? what about 2 ? and 3? and 4? Same shit. I hate hearin the same bull shit on every song on every album. Same wit laffy taffy. The only thing is a hot beat, but you could have a hot beat and still at least spend some time on the lyrics. Its like rappers have the same ol shit on they head but instead of growing as artist, they just look for the next hottest producer. I love the south being from Charlotte, but if it weren't for artist like TI and wayne it probably wouldn't be my favorite kind of music just the beats. Even so i still think TI and wayne should step their game up along with everyone else if you getting tired of everybody that aint black thinking we all just a buch of money hungry ignorant monkeys who thrive off of bringin our own folks down

R.I.P. B.I.G. Ludacris is THE DEFINITION of a true rapper in every sense of the word. Down south style, East coast lyricism and fills the political gap when neccessary. To bad everybody wanna be a thug down here.

Dirty Dirty jolding it down baby. Guys hip hop has many different sides to it. We can't always be listening to hard core ish plz. U can't step up in da club and listen to hip hop is dead plz. u gotta snap dance or get crunk u feel me. Eastcoast rap is fly but not all the time look at M.I.M.S a guy who decided to do sumting different new york u gotta step ur game up ur rap has been played out everyone says they hard so what. creste a dance a new typpe of music. Look at dipset they hot but they stil chilled. 50, banks they aint complaining abt the south step ur game up. i do agree that some south guys are horrible but they also shud step up their ish to keep poeple listening. No one wil snap da whole day. MUSIC is meant to be explored u hip hop is dead guys are probably good bu daawg u gotta also explore other expects. Cum on daawg evertyone has heard dat same old played out ish. holla at da dirty dirty
balance
written by magnum magiilicutty, April 23, 2007
IM FROM THE SOUTH, ARKANSAS TO BE EXACT. 1ST OFF, THE SOUTH IS GOING TO CONTINUE TO RUN THE GAME, BECAUSE WE HAVE SEVERAL STATES THAT ARE PRODUCING NATIONAL ARTISTS. ALOT OF EAST COAST CATS HATE BECAUSE THEY AIN'T GETTING THE BIG DEALS NO MORE, THEY SALES ARE DROPPING, NOBODY WANTS TO INTERVIEW THEM, THE SOUTHERN RAPPERS ARE EVERYWHERE, AND THEY WOMEN LOVE TO DANCE OFF OF OUR MUSIC!!!!!! THEY HATED THE WEST COAST, CALLED THEM COUNTRY.

BUT, I DO FEEL THAT WE NEED A BALANCE OF MUSIC AS FAR AS MAINSTREAM EXPOSURE GOES. WE NEED EAST,WEST,MIDWEST,AND SOUTH. TO ALL THE HATERS, DANCE MUSIC AINT EVER GOING ANYWHERE.WE JUST NEED A BALANCE,WE DON'T NEED ALL DANCE AND DOPE BOY MUSIC ALL THE TIME. WE ALSO DONT NEED CONSCIOUS RAP ALL THE TIME. PEOPLE SAY WE DONT PRONOUNCE OUR WORDS WELL. WELL, DEAL WITH IT. WE LISTENED TO EVERYBODY ELSE'S MUSIC I BUMP IT ALL, FROM SNOOP AND CUBE TO CONSEQUENCE AND NAS TO T.I AND DEVIN TO LITTLE BROTHER COMMON AND EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN.

TAKE THE MUSIC FOR WHAT ITS WORTH. YOU CANT JUDGE "SNAP YO FINGERS" BY LIL JON TO "CLASSIC" BY NAS, RAKIM,KRS ONE, AND KANYE. TWO DIFFERENT TYPES OF SONGS FOR TWO DIFFERENT THINGS.

I was born and raised in what's known as the classic south in Georgia. All I'm saying is if ya'll that worried about what we doin down here then something's wrong. Do what ya do but most of all do what ya like, and when you get tired of doing that then it's time to do something else. Ya'll judge what u know nothing about. I love my state, the south, and my country. Damn the hatin and put downs, lets get out here and get this money and live this life while we here. Cause if u can't respect another man's hustle then u might as well kill urself.

you really can't say the south succs cuz all u hear is atlanta maybe houston every now and then but the south has more to offer like memphis or brimingham mobile and alot moe places eastcoast niggaz only good for hatin i guess yall never get in the position to be hated on but i feel pimp c 100% snap shit for the clubs trap shit for the blocc stunting shit for when u feel like shineing nas for when u wanna listen to lyrics

All you southeners have thhe wrong idea.The North isnt hatin on the South.REAL hip hop is hatin on BUBBLEGUM rap.So when you complain dont say "those North muthafuckas hatin on the South!!!Just say "man those niggaz that really want to do true hip hop is hatin on us niggas that like ice rims hoes and money muzik!!!!!!Peace

No one is "HATING" on the south! When a NY mc says a southern rapper needs hooked on phonics, he's only telling the truth! Southern rappers lack any sort of rhyme skill what so ever!!!! That is not "hating", that is the obvious truth you dont want to look at. Your best MC, either Luda, or maybe Gay boy wayne, would get torn apart in a freestyle battle by any east coast cat from NY or Philly!!!!

I would not say that the south has killed hip hop, but any DJ who EVER spun that garbage has KILLED HIP HOP!!!!!!!!

written by D-RON, June 02, 2007
the problem with the south is most niggas aint done shit to get real respect cuz you niggas dont know how to be universal....instead of lettin' the real mc's of the south shine you all support dumb ass cats like paul wall, slim thug, mike jones, lil boosie, young joc, rich boy......i could go on with the list of how many pathetic mainstream south rappers there are....also these cats arent even creative when it comes to picking a moniker, why does everyone from the south feel the need to have LIL or YOUNG before there names? and no one is even hating on the entire south the only rappers who get real respect in the overall hip hop scene are ludacris, t.i., scarface, devin the dude, ugk, chamilionare, and outkast because they at least know the deal and have respect to the true essence of real hip hop...so all those rappers who rap about tired ass grills, candy paint rides, clubs, drinking, and being posted on the block-shit better recognize that the spot light aint gonna be on you forever and when you mainstream rappers fall, they're gonna fall hard.......whatever happened to that rapper J-Kwon?

all these rappers from the south who dont give a fuck about hip hop but making money off of the industry side dont have real respect for the culture......apparently you fuckers never heard of who MC HAMMER was......80% of these rappers will end up just like he did, broke as a joke
SETTIN SHIT STRAIT

FIRST OF ALL THE SOUTH IS DOIN IT RIGHT NOW. NO QUESTION ABOUT IT? MUTHAFUCKA'S JUS HATIN-SIMPLE AS DAT. AND THE SHIT BOUT WE DONT PRONOUNCE OUR WORDS CORRECTLY IS CRAZY AS FUCK. THE SHIT IS CALLED EBONIC'S ; 80% OF BLACK PEOPLE USE EBONICS.

THE TRUE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE SOUTH AND THE EAST COAST IS VARIETY! YES. EVERYONE ON THE EAST SOUNDS PRETTY MUCH THE SAME. AND IN THA SOUTH WE "MIGHT" RAP ABOUT THA SAME SHIT BUT ALL OF DA SHIT IS DIFFERENT IN A WAY.

MOST RAPPERS RAP ABOUT WHAT THEY SEE, NOT WHAT THEY DO. THEY SAY IT IN INTERVEIWS ALL THE TIME WHEN THE GET IN LEGAL TROUBLE. THEY SAY"I RAP ABOUT WHAT I SEEN IN THE STREETS AND WHAT I BEEN THROUGH AND HOW I CAN PREVENT IT, IT AINT COOL TO BE IN THOSE SITUATIONS". THEN THE SAME MUTHAFUCKA GOT A SONG BOUT I LOVE SELLIN DOPE. THATS WRONG AS A MUTHAFUCKA. PUT IT LIKE THIS ON DA GANGSTA SHIT- IF U WAS DOIN ALL DIS SHIT U WOULD COME AND GO

MAYBE THE EAST MAD KUZ THEY PLAYED OUT. THE EAST WAS THE PAST WE THE FUTURE- DONT TRIP WE GOT DIS.
NOBODY POINTED FINGERS!!

ok y are ppl thinking that NY is hating on the south? nobody said ANYTHING about the south, wen Nas dropped that album Hip Hop is dead, he didnt point NO fingers. the south felt guilty for some reason. Dont get me wrong the south got some "trill" rappers as they say down there, but look at whats on the radio and on tv??? its all that commercial shit that u can only bang in the clubs... we not hating the south we just hating them people that are only making music for the money, shit u can only bang to in the club that doesnt tell people NO message. we got some cats up in NY like Mims, he is straight up gargabe its music like that, thats killin hip hop. another example is Chicken Noodle Soup. wtf is that ??? NY is not hating nobody, except for that poor excuse for music artists r making just for money.

Southerners got it all twisted...nobody is really "hatin" on the music that is being put out. Some of it is actually pretty decent and even though in from NJ I still listen to it. But all that people from the north are saying is that be careful of repeatedly making the same type of music. It's not a good look when you can "snap ya fingas" to 95% of the songs out by southern artists...it makes everyone look the same. One thing I truly appreciate about hip-hop artists from up here is that everyone has there own style and flava. They make songs that will be classics from the first time it drops 'til forever. I got hip-hop running through my veins from the first time I started poppin' and breakin' and listening to hip-hop...mark my words, this time in the spotlight for the south is all good and well and is great for its exposure...but the north will reclaim the hip-hop game probably within the next 2-3 years.

-true story.

I love hip hop from all over but I can't lie I do love that texas sound because them cats are musicians they have that funky bass and guitar and have that blues feel to it. Banner have that too in his Music in Mississippi I just love that sound plus it's mad energy. Not to mention I love the south it's slower but you can't beat the hospitality of the dirty dirty. And they have the bomb thick sexy soul sistas in the south thick with hips and booty and the fly thick sistas there are nice as hell unlike the women in Hell A california.
