I could rest my case with that.
Say ODB was one of the biggest coons in rap history and I will digress.
How 'bout Biz?
The name of Nas' album didnt make ME sensative.
And as far as I can tell, the South is still quintupling sales numbers that
you guys are posting.
If hiphop is dead its dead all over, so why make an album?
BTW is he platinum yet?
He thought he would "rally the troops" with that intentionally
inflamatory statement, and that that statement would translate
into record sales, but it didnt work.
NYers are STILL the only ones mad.
actually no, ny isnt mad at anything.
when nas dropped the album southern rappers and southern cats were up in arms, luda got a stupid shirt sayin hip hop ain't dead it lives in the south, field mob like a yr b4 nas dropped his album did a youtube takin shots at the east. The south took nas' album title as an insult and a rally call and more coon music came flooding the market. Not quality music.
Some members of the east may care but as a whole the east doesnt give a fuck. but you got documented southern rappers from a yr or more b4 the album dropped stirring shit up.
After the album dropped they got all emotional and pissy even tho nas went out of his way to say it wasnt directed at the south.
NY only cares about NY like i said we ain't on that lets support everybody tip and we don't care about the money u make if u ain't a lyricist you ain't shit. Dipset went at jay on some we got money bullshit and got smashed.
The only east coast rapper who said anything was dude from wu-tang, there was a thread about it on bgol and it died down.
In every thread where coons are mentioned more often than not when rap and its poisonous nature is mentioned someone comes in taking shots at the east. Someone disses lil wayne and a flock of cats fly in insulting the east. THE WHOLE EAST. When the east said shit about LIL WAYNE.
Most of us know its not the whole south those who don't are lost.
You may not have gotten touchy about it but a lot of southern cats sure did.
And the truth of the matter is the east was messed up still is to an extent but the south is gloating and taking shots where none are needed and looking for every excuse to take a shot.
Hip Hop is dead wasn't a knock on the south but how many southern rappers and southern cats took that as an excuse to go off on the east.
The East ain't started shit but cats are acting like it did.
Dipset= clowns
Mims= clown
Lil Mama and her hype man = clowns.
That has always been the stance.
The East only cares about who is the king of ny and right now there is none, don't got time to worry about what the south is doing.
Make the money no one really cares, hip hop is judged by content and quality not sales, white corporate america judges hip hop by sales real hip hop fans judge by content.
So whether nas went plat or not means nothing. Quality wise he is hip hop. While jeezy who said he would outsell nas(and didnt) is trash.
