    Kinda wack to blame the state of hiphop on its artists when we were all buying and circulating their music and egging them on last decade

  • Most southern niggas down here hate the fundamentals

    He couldn’t

    Atlanta is cluttered with some ass for sure. But isn’t everywhere?

    Wasn't Gucci influenced by Jeru the Damaja? I feel like that encouraged him to have some flair in his bars

    Fr??

    He absolutely could make the equivalent of those songs in his late 90’s thug era if the equivalent beats were available lol

    Like if you sub Thought it was a drought for the equivalent late 90’s ny version of that beat or Timbaland doing a beat like that, he can catch that cadence and probably say more intricate s*** while doing it

    Lol and im from th south

    I guess why single out the south when there’s bad influence everywhere.

    Not saying I disagree I’m more of a NY Cali guy but still.

  • South literally running rap and creating empires.

    I think the south influence is more stronger for the state of hip hop today. For better and for worse. Not for sure if you watched the video or not

    Not yet the baby just went to sleep and I’m chilling with her a bit but I’ll give it a watch when I can like always with your stuff

  • Mafia Boss

    and Lil Wayne

    True I was going strictly Atlanta

  • Was just bumpin Future Sorry earlier, distorting space and time and that shii for sure talent lol

    Even tho is seems easy

  • Naturally people will gravitate to making easier music but that doesn’t mean the South didn’t have crazy creative influence. I don’t think you can pin the blame on one region when the internet and tech made making music more accessible. Not everything has to be about inner rhyme schemes and complex bars either. The South ran things for a long time but ran out of steam and no other influences came around to picking up the torch.

    Yeah it’s not a “let’s pile up on the south” type video. I’m from Florida so southern music is always my fav. It’s more of me doing an unbiased observation of hip hop today and why the south probably is the reason for a lot of piss poor quality. But appreciate you peeping my stuff!
