i knew this thread would end up like this.because we see all these weak niggaz on MTV from the south and all over the radio doesnt mean that the South is weak. theres Scareface, UGK, Slim Thug, Chamillionare, etc,..they all have great talent. However, because we get hit with all these nursery rhyme bubble gum shit, we get brain washed into thinking everybody from the South is garbage, which is not true.im westcoast everyday all day. but i will not say "fuck the south" because of some weak faggots gettin airplay. the people who you should be saying "fuck you" to is Corporate America(not just whites), such as MTV and the radio.i see everybody's points, if everybody just combined there oppinions, the mutual response would be this^

Luke was already beefing with Snoop and Dre, Deathrow had Bushwick on The Chronic... Cmon dude, you gotta be kidding me. 15 years ago, the South had their foot in the door, 2 years later they kicked it open (Outkast, Master P, Mystikal, Ball & G). So again, don't go there cuz you really don't know. If you want to pull the "not as big as card" then the West hasn't been as big as the South in over 11 years. So that means in the past 11 years the South has been shitting on the West. A decade... and the West has yet to be bigger than the South. Sad aint it? dude just take the L and move the fuck onsgv is ethering all y'all

I don't think anyone said the West and South were even 15 years ago, the South was just taking off. But 92 was the kick off for the West with the Chronic. It wasn't like the West slaughtered the South in 92. And in all reality, sure the West might have some sales, but nobody is talking about them. They spoke on Hyphy for a little, but that went away. Outside of that, Game was the only one with real pub in 06. Snoop had his name out there thanks to his arrests. But in the South, T.I., D4L, Wayne, Mike Jones, Chamillionaire, Paul Wall, Bun B, Young Jeezy, Pitbull, Rick Ross etc ALL had big years. So, in no way shape or form, is the West seeing the South.
We can urgue about this until Detox comes out. Everyone has their favorite artists, coasts, eras, whatever. Music goes in trends. It is the South's turn right now. It will change to something else in a few years. I can remember when the west was on top, people was making fun of chucks and west coast slang and lowriders. The south they was making fun of the accent. Now if you don't have one you won't get signed on a major so I am happy to see artists from all over getting that paper. Get It while you can and it's hot.
BESIDES THE GAME & SNOOP FACE IT THE WESTCOAST OVERthat HYPHY SHIT IS DEAD.......IT LASTED WHAT 3 WEEKS?T.I. - PLATINUMYOUNG JEEZY - PLATINUMBIRDMAN & LIL WAYNE - PLATINUMLUDACRIS - PLATINUMYOUNG DRO - GOLD& DONT SAY E-40 BECUZ HE HAD 2 GO 2 LIL JON 2 GET BACC IN THE GAME

So, in no way shape or form, is the West seeing the South.i already mentioned D4L. Take your big single, and do shit all with it. Mike Jones' last album was in early 05, so until his 2nd lp does as well as his 1st, the jury is still out on him. cham's record was also out in 05, so same story (although most of his shine came in 06)^^. (but i'm sure his 2nd lp will do fine, that single is commercial as hell). Pitbull always flops. Bun B if i remember correctly also flopped (MAYBE he went gold). Ross did decent #s (along with wayne & birdman...but neither was certified plat.).
