Ludacris and T.i. are the most noteworthy mainstream rappers from the south in my opinion. everybody else is ok. Lil jon only does sing-a-longs repeating stuff a billion times. On all of his songs he repeats verses like a billion times he should be considered more of a rock/producer guy then a rapper/producer since he fits all the qualities(screaming on every song, repeating the hook way too many times, not very much lyrics, etc.) I like his beats though.
