[CraiggChris]

str8 stunnin magazine is trash lol..so so broads n that mag. n it's so much politics that come along wit women gettin in the game...men hate on them too.

[gymkrow]

People who think the Hip Hop in the South sucks its entirely your fault for not listening to the good music. You just got caught up in the bad realm of bad music and forgot bout folks like Outkast.

[playboyjalen04]

Nyc

[amanfirst]

It's some good rappers up in ny, but hip hop is alive just not in NEW YORK cuse they love to hate on each other all of them, they start off down wit each other in the same group/label then they turn against each other think about it.whats that one term the love to use grimmey.

[irRASSINal1]

@Herazaba that's too generalized as an opinion. That's like saying west coast only ever wanna talk about gang banging. There's creative and great artists in every area code but they just don't always get that opportunity to be viewed in the public eye

[MarcoOrBust]

[paulandj]

@thesouthrapsucks u a lil sensitive dude aint it.

[ucantfuckwiththis]

New York niggas are just jealous, period. They have a false sense of superiority over the West and the South so they hate to see the West and now the South fucking the bitch (rap music) they gave birth to. The term "HATER" was originally meant to describe New Yorks in general. Peace to the East Bay, LA, D12 and the Mighty Dirty South. New Yorkers are the corniest niggas!!!

[1xoirc]

@ucantfuckwiththis I have to agree Down South 4 life! yeahhhhh!!

[BeenaBee]

DJ KAY SLAY IS THE TRUTH.....seperate the two, hip hop and fun hop....Rakim and D4L....Big Daddy Kane and Soulja Boy.....fuck it NaS and Mims.....please bring real hip hop back young niggas, yall are in power, yall the new generation dont let this beautiful genre die...step your pen game up for real

[james33387]

@BeenaBee

[PHRESHLLC]

BOB has the #1 album in the country and he's pretty lyrical to me. By the way, he's from Decatur,GA-->the south.

[HipHop226]

@PHRESHLLC That b o b dude has a good messege. He doesnt rap about corny shit but he isnt lyrical.

[poobie25]

Southern hip hop has always been different from the rest, and people love different. People love danceing in the club and that's what we do, it just came to the light when NYC rappers start beefing hard with each other is when people started listening to other rap music. That's why NY will never be on top anymore cause they hate there own artist. Ex. papoose, murda, saigon, hot artist where are they, beefing with other NY artist.

[wolfwing63435]

man fuc hip hop niggas jus mad cuz ny aint shinin...tell yall yung niggas 2 get on dey shit n stop sittin on dey ass n put ny bac on da map cuz afta jay z leave da gamedeath or retirement yall niggas really done for like it or not...its all about da souf & da west coast...ny niggas always hatin

[TEEYEASCHOOLS]

He's saying Fun Hop because the South think they're music is Hip Hop too. NOT EVEN CLOSE! Listen to Nas The World Is Your's and Soulja Boy's Crank Dat and you tell me what sounds more Hip Hop. This is not really an Opinion. It's a Fact that both music is DIFFERENT!

[paulandj]

@TEEYEASCHOOLS pick on somebody yo own size nigga comparing solja boy to nas chill out nigga, compare the world is yours to point blank's after i die, im serious go now im sure its on youtube lol im tired of yall niggas comparing songs the south is embarassed of to ny classics get serious nigga learn about sum of our classic music, classic shit from southern artists u neva heard if you want i will give u a list of real southern artists and then judge us

[TEEYEASCHOOLS]

@paulandj Stop defending the SOUTH! FACE IT! South got their own sound and New York got their own sound. THAT'S IT!!

[paulandj]

@TEEYEASCHOOLS oh i kno dat but when will ny recognize dat, dats da problem

[TEEYEASCHOOLS]

@paulandj They already do but that don't mean that they got to have it or Hip Hop won't exist on THE RADIO FOR SURE!

[804vacity]

Why the fuck NY niggas so salty bout this rap shit, niggas should've went pork after the crown was passed to Eminem afer biggies Death... Niggas talking bout it went to Jigga, fuck out of here. That shit went to 8 Mile somewhere out Detroit.. Detroit!!!!!! Once that caucasian came in the game, shit went downhill.. Straight facts, believe what u want.. NYC niggas get ya shit together, it's 2010 Cracker.(we dont say nigga no mo).... Lol.

[TEEYEASCHOOLS]

Nobody wears the crown in New York. NOBODY! They only get respect. Real chat.

[Jokernose69]

[AROnE87]

Eastcoast = quality music, hot beats, amazing lyrics and more orignality.

The South = more dance oriented, repetitive beats, weaker hooks and basic word play.

[royalnash]

I live in florida so i listen to all of a certain rappers joints and whatever i think is the crack cocaine meaning the fire shit im a bump it hard and thats my way of giving my support.

[royalnash]

the truth is a lot of these niggas south and north are putting a lot of repetitive music with some weak beats. like out of every 20 joints dude got its like 2 or 3 joints go hard

[biggz1012]

type in ameen disses lil wayne

[ycease94]

hip hop is a culture and da rappers down south are mostly the reason hip hop is dead because of what they rap about

[kandikizzez09]

blah blah blah listen to my uncle peaches song lol

[CJESUNO1]

NY AINT HOUSTONE LEVEL.HTX IS BETTER.NUFF SAID...5st Gs

[ONPOIINTT]

[sirfleet]

yo why can't everyone just get money. who cares everyone has a spot in the game ya dig. fuck that south vs east shit yo fuck that east vs west yo. rap, hip hop just make music you like and only listen to the music you like. STOP THE HATIN not a good look

[genefury]

the south has been putting out the same style of rap for over 10 years and it's getting tired it's been tired the beats they rhymes HAVE BEEN GARBAGE they not really into this thing like we are

[CountryAccent105]

The East has been puttin' out the same style of rap for 10 years + & it's gettin' tired. It's been tired. The beats, they're rhymes HAVE BEEN BORING they really not into this thing like we are. The fans chose the south for a reason.

[NewYorkConsciousRapX]

Nah, B....Down South clowns be gettin mad old with all that "aye aye aye"...FUCK THAT BULLSHIT, GAWD!!!

Im sick and tired of listenin to them same old Country accented rap you's be puttin all that "aye aye" bull shit.....NO CREATIVITY....NO LYRICAL CONTENT....

juss bunch of ignant ass slave-rappin ass negroes rappin about "whips and chains"...

NEW YAWK STAND THA FUCK UP, GAWD....KILL THA SOUTH!

[CountryAccent105]

A youtube conflict? Fuck all that. I was just fuckin' with it to see who dumb enough spark up. I live in TX. & I honestly don't give a damn about some boring-ass NYC rapper. The lyrics are there but that's all that's there. Down here we capture: hype, swagg, soul, gangsta shit, etc. And the over all is it has to sound good. And it obviously do, cause it's sellin'. Ain't no slaves but errbody love our country style. If you ain't been chopped & screwed, you ain't shit. TEXAS ALL-STARZ.

[ONPOIINTT]

wtf is you talkin bout nigga NYC is home to the best spitters in rap if you don't believe put up a team of texas rappers against a team of NYC rappers u niggas is straight food out here, u lucky most of these NYC niggas fell back off da game, if u aint been chopped & screwed? wtf go autotune or sum shit

[kemoine]

i know u left this comment 2 months ago but i just had to reply to this you are so right and wrong im from the south and yea we got alot of wack rappers but we got some good ones too you cant deny andre 3000 come on man he is a ill lyriest even jay z put him in his top five right now so u cant say we cant spit pusha t we dont have as many as yall but we got some but dont act like ny aint got no wack ones i mean cam. jim jones, puffy, blac rob, g dep, them bitches that made chicken noodle soup

[ONPOIINTT]

yea i agree wit u theres a couple of southern rappers but still the best to ever do it come from NYC, and yea theres a handful of rappers that are wack but all of that isn't even noticed by the amount of talent in NYC

[7evenone8IGHT]

Thas word as born

[skymunro]

word as born?!?!?! Yo...you fake fuck...its word as bond!!! "MY word, my bond..." where the fuck do you pimply face teenagers come from?? Oh yeah, your moms attic off your cul de sac in the suburbs....

[7evenone8IGHT]

who da fuck says bond nigga...idk where the fuck u frum!...i aint from no suburbs u dum fuck idk who da fuck is u 2 b talkin shit u bitch nigga

[skymunro]

stupid mother fucker...you a mark bitch...word is bond you fake fuck....franklin Ave, BK to Yorkville, uptown East Harlem...NYC born and bred...fuckin herb

[iSoN12]

thats the only thing ppl can ever say about the east coast... u put u out the same style u gettin borin... fuck outta here wats the east coast gonna do start rappin like fuckin soulja boy and all those other dumb 106 rappers? just accept the fact that most (yea i said most there are some but the majority suck) down south rappers have elementary school rhymes and we dont wanna here the shit

[CountryAccent105]

That comment was so boring, I almost fell asleep reading it. I'm just fuckin' witcha, nigga. Anyways, I don't care what ya listen to & you shouldn't care what I listen to. We 2 different people, with 2 different opinions. But... what I listen ain't really about whether the lyrics are basic or advance, it's HOW they say it or if I can feel where they're coming from.

And all the Youtube debating is startin' to get a lil' old to me. I don't people about come to amens.

[Forty1Second]

True indeed....

Real heads know the deal tho fam. Anyone who know hiphop knows for a FACT that most real hiphop comes from the eastcoast. If you want to listen to real lyricism, with real talent over raw ass beats fuck with the east.

If you want to hear preschool ryhmes over recycled ass heavy bass and weak drum kicks than listen to the south

[markbell1990]

the southern artist have they own thing just like the east coast and west, but i think its unfair to call all these soulja boys, lil waynes etc what southern raps all about, theres real and fake from all coasts and its just the fake have a grip on the game at the moment, south got real rappers too, scarface,z ro, young bloodz, B.G,Project pat etc

[LCash523]

boring ass new york hip hop. all you have to do is repeat these lines over and over:

ima hunt down and shoot ya moms

ima rape and kill ya kids

i had to murda dem niggas

cuz those lil bastards ain't shit

now all i gotta do is repeat that same shit over and over with a new york accent and throw in a "what up brooklyn" or a "harlem stand up" at the end and mutha fuckas will say im the next biggie.

fucking stupid

[dakidkossreturns]

huh lol stop doing crack

[7evenone8IGHT]

Now rap from the south lame ass lyrics..

"superman that hoe, oooooo, ooooo ,ooooo"

now say ay ay ay in the background and say ATL at the end

[Kidcash213]

Theres only 10% good rappers in the south like scarface, ugk and outkast. But 90% of the other artist is wack and when an argument about the south have lyricist u motherfuckers can only name about ten lyrical artist and when u talk about new york they got like 500

[newyorkowner]

tha south rap is a joke it will have its time soon like everything else.........

[southrapsucks]

i think tha south wants revenge..lol becouse they shit has been wack for years and still is just now tha radio stations are owned by jews and gays so hey ...2009 tha wack era of hip hop....

[beeblack2]

man this is nyc and the south is getting it but yall nyc niggaz let this happend cause yall trying to be like them now and that sad man!!!!!im not feel a bk or harlem cat saying soulja boy is nice and wu tang and boot camp clik,krs one is garbage that bullshit man!!!!!WU TANG, KRS ONE, BOOT CAMP CLIK, IS LEGENDS MAN!!!!!THIS IS NYC NOT THE SOUTH STOP SWEATING THE SOUTH WITH THEM LAME ASS SONG HOLLA!!!!

[blistershot]

Its like you walk down philly you here gangster rap and real hip hop

you walk down in atlanta all you here is soulja boy

[Herazaba]

This topic is funny as hell. I've never taken the South seriously as far Hip Hop goes, It seems like them niggas more concern with inventing a new dance for these assholes to be doing.

[enzigenes]

@Herazaba You need to go purchase Goodie Mob soul food album, All of outkast albums, All of Ludacris's albums, All of 8ball and MJG albums, All of TI albums. There is real hip hop in the south. I can admit some of it is wack, just like some in new york have wack rappers too. Some artists respect the culture, and some don't. Hip hip hop is a culture, but the rich white folks made it a business. The industry as a whole is fucked up.

[1xoirc]

@Herazaba True but you have to overlook that,the South is taking over now so get over it!

[mrsonofosiris1]

@Herazaba its beats walking around with your ass showing lookin like a gay bitch/the rap game has always been universal but somehow u ny niggas tried to keep this music or art for yourself now u made cause every state has their own sound now nobody listens to your onesided street stories now go research that

[chellz8909]

@Herazaba peep game u have to live in da south to get tha south but its all love B.EAST COAST

[paulandj]

@Herazaba yea my chocolate NY daddy we LUH ta dance---------> dats muh dick.

[soldier6993]

Watching the wire is as close to being a gangster as u have seen or ever will be! Go purchase the box set so snoop& Chris can give u some pointers!lol

Omar is your idol isn't he u homo thug!lol I'm through with this nonsense u are not 37 nigga u are 13 stop playing!lol Clown! Go read a book & then holler back once you've gotten your intelligence game up!!

[soldier6993]

Oh & just 2 make sure there is no misunderstandings.. I'm not taking anything away from ANY of the artist u named.

They are all Pioneers of Hip Hop! I grew up listening 2 B.Boys,RunDMC & LL so I mean no disrespect to them or what they have done 4 Hip Hop! I give respect where respect is do!

I don't have 2 degrade another coast so my coast can get some shine!lol Real niggas don't get down like that!

[soldier6993]

@thewire

No the hell we don't! U niggas swear just because Hip Hop started in NY that u niggas own the rights 2 it or some shit! When the East was on top Niggas U wasn't fucking with the South!

So we created our own style or own flow that niggas in the South could all relate to! Now u niggas are not running shit and u all are salty as hell!

That's why u can't keep our region out of your hating ass mouths! Those albums u named are classics 2 u & most up North niggas. Not the South!

[javy125]

who's that girl hostin the panel she's blazin hot

[iratetruth]

Oh and newyork is done forever

[jizzy2sexi]

thats the most retarded comment I've read in a while ni66a everybody with common sense knows hip hop mainstream wise doesn't stay on 1 coast forever went from the east to the west to the midwest to the south and its like a carousel IT WON'T STAY THERE and to be real mainstream rap is ass more like pop now most of the best MCs & rappers are indie/ underground

[iratetruth]

Sorry; but hiphop has never changed anyone life for the better. The truth is that most who listen to hiphop change for the worst because they imitate the negative actions glorified in hiphop. By the way I prefer funhop; for life.

[iratetruth]

the south for life; the southern music is way better.

[godson100proof]
