Yooooooooo , Atlanta was the spot growing up in the 90's with all the SOUNDS that TOOK OVER the STATE . Tom Skee , Tommy Wright , Skinny , 8ball & MJG ..... all the BASS MUSIC from FLORIDA .... all that Hardcore Flint , MI sounds .... , Etc. So much music , it was hard to keep up .... What made it beautiful was just the work from all the regions just melting together in Atlanta !!!!
Not to take anything away from Memphis but my thing is when I was growing up “crunk” wasn’t just a sound it was a part of life. I remember we would refer to games and such as being “crunk”. “Man last Friday the game was crunk as hell, and it was thick out there too!” I remember things like that because it kinda flowed into every day life.
Memphis got their sound form Terrorist & SPC producer Egypt E out of Houston & mixed it with the Showboys song “Drag Rap”. The SPC had a big influence on Memphis. Fly loved K-Rino & DJ Paul loved Ganksta NIP.
@@beezyndee3034 they said it out of their own mouths so you can disagree all you want. Nobody was doing horrorcore before Ganksta Nip. Memephis took it & ran with it . They made it more gangsta by mixing it with tales from the streets.
@@dolomite5441truth. I heard Zirk say it out his mouth on Off the Porch podcast that Texas created Devilshyt aka horror core. Gangsta Nip out the South Park Coalition along with K Rino and Dope E and Point Blankk
I'm from Arkansas grew up on Memphis 90's & 00's, Memphis was too gangsta, they couldn't get along! As far as rapping Memphis is top tier, maybe if they had an R&B scene like Atlanta back then they could have established 🤷🏿♂️
True shyt. I asked a brother of mine to critique my writing skills for rap and he was shocked and responded saying brother nothing is wrong with your writing. I’m just thrilled you asked me that. And I think it really touched him that a man could really ask for a little help with something he thinks another is better at it than him. My brother UT from Innocent Felons. I’m trying to get their music now til this day. Those guys were amazing but the promotion and money deals were bad business dealing with Platinum Sounds in Albany Georgia. North Slappey Blvd
Memphis really don’t get the credit they deserve. From the high hats to the cowbells. Tommy wright Dj Paul squeaky and many others don’t get the credit they don’t deserve.Til this day ppl still sample 36 all day. And Memphis been having that sound since cassette days. I love atl, but they swear they started everything .even like the phrase no cap. Houston/ Louisiana been saying “loud cappin/high cappin” wayyy before atl
@@Luke973T yah a lot of stuff did . But not everything that happens in the south comes from the bay. It’s lil how bay people claim Filmore slim and he’s from the south. And didn’t even move there til later in his adult life
@@majorfranklin334 yeah that's why I said alot instead of saying everything. But a lot of people in the south actually think that everything came from the south. I move around a lot when I was growing up to I learned that it's not just about where I'm from.
The 1st sound atl took was the MIAMI BASS sound and put a twist on it - then the 2nd sound atl took was MEMPHIS CRUNK and also put a twist on it and outkast was like TEXAS RIDING MUSIC.....the trap sound came from "ATL" thanks to SHAWTY REDD and lex Luger put a Memphis twist to trap beats cause he combine mix SHAWTY REDD trap and juicy j and dj Paul crunk sound together - and made a new trap sound that went mainstream then the lex Luger sound is still here in hip hop with a twist on it 💯🔥🤣😂👑
And did a nice job doing too!!!!😂 Memphis style; Pimp C was the first one that I heard to say "crunk" in "It Supposed To Bubble". So there goes some Texas too!!!
Crime mob sounded like Memphis Lil scrappy sounded like Memphis Pastor Troy sounded Memphis Young Jeezy and gucci sounded Memphis Dj drummer boy and jazzy phay was giving Atlanta alot of our flavor
Miami residents moved to Atlanta in the 80s I believe due to a hurricane. There's no telling what Miami producers and artists were mixing and mingling with Atlanta. Its too much of a melting pot. I remember seeing Gangsta Boo at the gas station in Atlanta in like 2000. People always come here especially when they wanted to make it in music. People end up working together and...
@@Michael-xq4lp they're both Old school legends in the "A" no doubt but Kilo was apart of the Miami Bass wave which was pioneered in the mid 80's, Memphis are the originators of Crunk/fight music, which were an huge Influence to the A, which is not a problem my G.
Memphis made the sound but now I was a little boy Atlanta made booty music look at that girl with them Daisy dukes on and whoop there it is Memphis was playing Corbin's up and lock you in the trunk in the 80s
I respectfully disagree with my Memphis bro but we lost it to bone, but ti stole, 24's is all the receipt that he stole. That whole bounce you'll see ti kind walk a lil bit. The first trap or gangsta came from nino and wicked that I know of
Steal is a strong word , let's just say " influenced " . The Hustlers and Go Getters , would go get work out of state , but also bring back the music too.
Atl ain't stole nothing from Memphis. You might be able to say Lil John incorporated Memphis stuff into crunk music but that was not when Atlanta rap music took off. Kast, and Goodie Mob os what put Atlanta sound on the map Nationally and they ain't stole nothing from Memphis. In Atlanta those of us of age were raised on Miami Bass. Ball and G and 36 Mafia sounded nithing like Kast, Goodie, Ghetto Mafia, Raheem, Kilo........
@@conanhercules5705 huh? That's false. Crunk was a small era in Atlanta that can actually be erased, if that would satisfy folks. Goodie Mob and the entire Dungeon Family full of artists had their own sound.
@@conanhercules5705 Backbone-5 Duece 4 Tre, Witchdoctor-Holiday. Those are two of my favorite songs out of Atlanta and that sounds nothing like Memphis.
@@1judauhn how da fuck you go tell me that when my city been saying trap since the early 80s. Nigga are you from Atlanta bc u sho kno alot of shit. Atleast you think you do
@@1judauhnain't from the A but stayed there back in the early 2000s, the A was where I was hearing trap! I'm not saying it started there but I wasn't hearing it nowhere else, just like calling the police 12,that came from the A!
