Mike Jones Explains Why the Attention Left Houston in 2005

Houston is the only city in the south that collectively was putting out decent artist & music in the 2000s.

More consistent than ATL or Miami? I mean cats on this board act like Paul Wall, Slim Thugg, Lil Flip and Mike Jones were lyrical beasts. They had some nice beats but thats it. Mike Jones and Slim Thug arent even good rappers. Paul Wall and Flip are debatable

Atl had a bunch of trash in the early 2000s and still do. I said collectively. Yeah mike jones suck and so do paul wall, but Houston just got better artist than atl overall. and what the fuc?! Miami?! Who from Miami? But Memphis was hot in the mid-late 90s with Suave House.

A lot of people don't know but Bad Boy south was supposed to center around Houston instead of ATL but J. Prince wanted too big of a cut so Puff shifted to ATL.



dang i never knew that...


The Industry was Houston's, something went wrong. So much points to j prince. from him, pimp c and zero dissing clear channel, pimp c even threatening to expose and sue them. :smh: to j prince trying to sue BET, Apple and Viacom. :smh: he doesn't need those media outlets but i guess he doesn't think about his artist.

Houston has a lot of artist that have never been big time but have huge followings. Z Ro has been around for a long time. Sold a lot of shows and things of that nature but will never be on 106th and Park. Lil Flip was big time in the South at one point. Back in the day he was dropping mix cds and them suckers sold. People don't know the influence that DJ Screw had on a lot of peoples careers down here. They just never blew up to national attention.

Big Moe
Big Pokey
Z Ro
Flip
Lil O
Slim Thug
From Slim Thugs camp J Dawg...dude has good music but will never go big
Big Mike
ESG
UGK...They have never gone platinum and are some of the biggest names in the industry
Ya'll probably have never heard of South Park Mexican. Dude was running the Mexican rap scene in Houston till get got locked up for fucking lil girls.


The list goes on and on but the issue mainly with Houston rap is all they talk about is drank and rims. :smh:

Back in the day DJ Screw used to sell a grey tape every tuesday or wednesday. Say he sold a 1,000 of them for 10 bucks. Look at how much money that nigga was pulling in. No label :eek:

COSIGN

Most people cant understand what you are saying. I remember growing up the only way alot of people in Texas and Lousiana would even listen to big names from up north was because it was screwed and chopped.
 
I guess Killer Mike, TIP, Luda, Outkast, and Jeezy are from Portland Oregon?

Don't fuck with killer mike or jeezy too tough. I couldn't listen to jeezy until TM 103 last year. Prior he was straight trash to me. And I already said I fucks with TI. But overall as a city Atl killed Hip Hop with all that trash they were putting out in the early 2000s

Don't mind him. Trick Trick, Mysterious from Making The Band & ICP are more of his speed. :lol:

Niggaz get jokes when their feelings get hurt.
I don't listen to Trick Trick and icp ain't from the D homey.
Royce, Elzhi, Black Milk, Em, and honorary Dayton Family. That list is crushing your whole city lyrically. I also listen to cats from NY, and Philly and some West Coast cats.

Killer Mike is a monster. Should be bigger than he is
