50 cent says southern rap hurts hip hop

THIS IS MAD OLD btw, but I just now am hearing of it.


In a recent interview with MTV, rap megastar and G-Unit boss - 50 Cent denigrated the southern rap genre, referring to this form of hip-hop as "simplified." The New-York rapper also reasoned that southern rappers hardly put any thought into their music because they're more engrossed with having a nice time, than actually making quality music. I don't know that 50 Cent's "In Da Club" credentials qualifies him to place judgement on southern rap, but, his own lyrics are not that sophisticated at all. Besides, if a track was designed with the dancehall in mind, then I don't want to be in the club scratching my head over its lyrical complexity. Most importantly, one barely has to research to find that the dirty south has spawned some of the most prolific lyricists in hip-hop, notably OutKast, Scarface, Cunninglinguists, Ludacris, and Supastition to name a few. If 50 Cent is really concerned with revitalising the state of southern rap, maybe he needs to start with his G-Unit dirty south artist - Young Buck.

I think 50 cent ruined HIP HOP RAP MTV WHITE KIDS ACROSS AMERICA

hmmmmm wen i read the title all i could think about was the last line of ur post....

Seriously I'd shoot that man another 9 times.

Prolly the wrong person for those comments to come from........


But................I agree to an extent...

SOME good artists have come out of the south united states.... But the majority are just full of shit...

maybe 50 personally had no place ta speak but he wasnt necassarily comparing his music to the south but merely comparing his influences to the southern hip hop scene. seriously whos gonna be influenced by mike jones?

What is mike jones?

Edit:

this thread makes me wanna become southern and merk 50.

50 says this, 50 says that. 50 said he'd beat kanye did he?.... no
50 said that game would flop if he left g-unit, did he?.... no
50said that mop and mobb deep would have thier best selling albums on g-unit, well the multiplatinum mobb deep flopped, and mop aint even come out yet. if there still even with them.

basically 50 says alot of things and as u can tell, a lot of it is just nonsense.
