eh. i can name some down south ppl u dont know. hell i can name a **** load of them

i'm not throwing out a ton of obscure names here. these are all fairly prominent artists with the exception of a few. trust me i could name 50 more artists that you've never heard of...but if you listen to a general stretch of each coasts music then you should have heard of about 70% of these artists.

As much as I love southern rap...it doesn't do it for me (well most of it) like right coast does.

I knew all those guys...

About that 'screwed & chopped' little bit I said earlier, I know the South invented it but it just seems like that idea is really looked upon as a great idea in the south but in the east that idea looks like pure ass.

i have seen his name before...probably when i was browsing through mixtapes or something. my boy is friends with a dude that runs one of the biggest mixtapesites on the net. i think i have seen this dude featured on a song here or there...with chamillionaire or somethign. i have never listened to any of his work though. i assume he's from texas.

lol, the east coasts version of screwed and chopped is looked upon as ass...i dont know how many people were complaining about how **** that juelz santana song was.
