Probably earlee on this but didn’t see a thread.
People gonna say no way but T.I. has a point here
T.I. delusional at this point
Well, being from NY had its advantages back in the 2000s. It was the rap capital of the world.
Is he saying having a debut like GRODT would be viewed as an album like nellyville if 50 wasnt from NY
I mean we’ve already established nelly had more hits
Don’t bring up the luda battle he had negative wifi and played unheard songs that he believed shoulda blown up out of pettiness
Idk about that but there was a point in time where if you were from NY people automatically assumed you were better. After Kanye beat 50 in 2007, the culture started to shift towards the south.

True but Nelly and 50 had their primes in early 2000s. In that short span Nelly and 50 basically had the same career as far as popularity. I think the point T.I. is making is how they are looked at now. Nelly known for the hits he made but isn’t respected like 50. The east coast bias was real and a lot of people from the south/Midwest feels that way.

Compare in the culture on how GRODT is revered and look at Country Grammar. People bring up GRODT way more even though Country Grammar is a diamond album.

Country Grammar exist
Lmaooooo anyone that even agree with this is a crackhead I’m sorry. 50 made quality rap. Peep them early mixtapes and mixtapes up til 08ish. Get the f*** out of here with that. 50 got hits and quality projects. Ti sounding like a bitter itty bitty b****.

Country grammar has classics but nothing on the level of many men in da club etc
Your making my points exactly lol
not at all lol you just talking about popularity, nelly made good music sure and sure it was just as popular as 50 at one point but GRODT is one of the greatest rap albums oat
