I agree about dude who mentioned Memphis, they weren’t even talked about in the Vh1 Honors, and they’ve put in a lot of work. Eightball & MGJ, Hypnotize Minds, and Playa Fly get plenty play in the whip. “Space Age Pimpin” playin right now

Still tryna figure out when TX ran the South… They may have been poppin from an underground standpoint but ATL has been frontman for the South since the early crunk era wit Lil Jon… Only time I can think of when TX ran it was the late 80s to early 90s wit the Geto Boys and UGK. What’s crazy is in hoods all over, the same ATL rappers like Gucci, Waka, and whoever else is cool to hate, get the most play. I was just in the hood in North Philly a month ago and I heard Gucci and Waka shit every goddamn turn.

TEXAS is one of the most slept on and the above haters are the reason why. There is A LOT of pure TALENT here but no one notices because we are not animated and p*ssy like most of the so called talent thats out today (no offense ATL artists jeezy you a real nicca). Now. . .that being said i cosign small town tx and shoutout to XXL and Amber McKynzie. . .LADY THUG COMING SOON STAY TUNED. .

Who cares…there’s more ill lyricists in the Southwest than the South. Hip Hop heads are jaded, but there mad talent and bangers in the Southwest. Someone *cough*xxl*cough* should tap into it.

Whatever. Texas had its run…IMO; so did Atlanta. But what do I know….just poster.

The Real Questions Is: Atlanta Gets Hip-Hop Love, But What About Texas and “Memphis”?

I think both Texas and Atlanta have put out alot of hip-hop talent. Kinda crazy how w are talking about Texas not gettin love and noone mentions the Geto Boys … Scarface is the King of the South. UGK obviously. We all know what Atlanta has brought to the table but check it:

Texas-Geto Boys, Mike Jones, Paul Wall, Chamillionaire, UGK
DJ Screw… Don’t forget a few years back Swishahouse was runnin things…

Tennessee- Young Buck, Three Six Mafia

Kentucky-Nappy Roots

Virginia- The Clipse, Missy , Skillz, Timbaland

North Carolina- Petey Pablo, Little Brother, J.Cole

Alabama-Yelawolf

Mississippi-David Banner and Big KRIT

Louisiana-Weezy, Juvenile, B.G, Birdman,Mannie Fresh Mystikal,Master P, Curren$y, Jay Electronica,

Peace to AtL , but other areas in the South been poppin too for a minute not just Atlanta. Hip Hop’s all over the map yall.

Atlanta has probably done more damage to hip hop then any other state – snap music – crunk music -

young dro
yung la
gucci mane
waka
oj da jew mayne
ying yang twins
lil jon

texas gets its props if you like rhymes about hoes/purple stuff & riding chevys – but i prefered the bay area rappers who rhymed about that

Oh, and before I forget–I just listened to that shit-stanking lame-ass “Smokin Marijuana” song and lucky I had a fresh Champion hoodie to change into after vomiting up my $200 lunch on the first one. That song sucks. Period. Muhfuckas, it’s 2011, are dudes STILL singing songs about weed? Like, what the fuck else is there to say about that shit? You smoke it… You get high… It makes your dick feel like a magic wand of galactic pleasure… Who doesn’t know all that shit already? Fuck outta here Dookie and Bicci…

What the fuck, B? Yo, you know that every time you say “Waka Flocka” that I kill 10 kittens? I’m not playing either—I rolled through Waka’s hood the other day and had some bitches scoop up all the stray cats that was living inside and around his mom’s crib. I took them shits back to my house, the White House to be exact, and stashed them in my private gymnasium—word life I just murked about 50 of them little bitches just based on the shit I just read on XXLmag.com, alone. I’m cutting kittens’ heads off muhfucka so stop saying that corny muhfucka’s name. Gotdamn.
