In many ways, 2003's Trap Muzik was T.I.'s official unveiling; the irresistible single "Rubber Band Man" served as a raison d'etre of sorts for the star. After spending time in prison for cocaine charges, he returned in 2004 with the comparatively cheery Urban Legend. Between the release of that album and 2006's King, he had begun to challenge 50 Cent and Eminem as the most famous emcee in the world. T.I.'s next album, 2007's T.I. vs. T.I.P., explored the division between the rapper's street persona and his corporate interest. Mining dark territory and featuring Justin Timberlake, 2008's Paper Trail continued to cement his status as the king. - Sam Chennault]]> http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.9005&rws=%2Frap-hip-hop%2Fsouthern-rap-hip-hop%2Fdown-south-lyricism%2Fartist-chart.rss Dirty South Sun, 27 Dec 2009 10:14:30 -0800 Top Down South Lyricism Artists on Rhapsody Online art.9005 art.9005 Lil Wayne art.9005 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.9005&variant=play&rws=%2Frap-hip-hop%2Fsouthern-rap-hip-hop%2Fdown-south-lyricism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.9005&variant=data&rws=%2Frap-hip-hop%2Fsouthern-rap-hip-hop%2Fdown-south-lyricism%2Fartist-chart.rss Tha Block Is Hot. His raps focus on youthful rebellion, New Orleans style -- crack, girls and turf supremacy are paramount. Lights Out, released in 2000, and 2002's 500 Degreez established Wayne as a true force in a shifting hip-hop landscape. With 2004's Tha Carter and its 2005 follow-up, Tha Carter II, he made a case for himself as the South's preeminent rapper, with a supple flow, witty lyrics and ample charisma. He wrapped up the trilogy with 2008's Tha Carter III, featuring the inescapable hit "Lollipop," and continued to expand his horizons across mixtapes, the rock-leaning single "Prom Queen" and even a performance alongside Kid Rock at the Country Music Awards. - Sam Chennault]]> http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.69259&rws=%2Frap-hip-hop%2Fsouthern-rap-hip-hop%2Fdown-south-lyricism%2Fartist-chart.rss Hitmakers Sun, 27 Dec 2009 10:14:26 -0800 Top Down South Lyricism Artists on Rhapsody Online art.69259 art.69259 Outkast art.69259 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.69259&variant=play&rws=%2Frap-hip-hop%2Fsouthern-rap-hip-hop%2Fdown-south-lyricism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.69259&variant=data&rws=%2Frap-hip-hop%2Fsouthern-rap-hip-hop%2Fdown-south-lyricism%2Fartist-chart.rss Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik (1994), swiftly went platinum on the strength of their huge hit "Player's Ball."

After the hit "Southern Hospitality," Luda was a full-fledged superstar. Since his debut, he has unleashed a long line of irresistible club smashes, such as "Area Codes," "Move B*tch" and "Splash Waterfalls," propelling subsequent albums to multi-platinum status. For Chicken & Beer (2003) and The Red Light District (2004), Ludacris stuck with his winning formula: witty, sexually charged rhymes delivered with a dexterity few could match. While both were hugely successful albums, the ATL emcee yearned to be taken seriously. When he reemerged in 2006, he trimmed his treasured rows and released an album, Release Therapy, that contained some of his most introspective material to date. He followed it up in 2008 with Theater of the Mind, which continued to explore the many facets of Luda. - Sam Chennault]]> http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.214&rws=%2Frap-hip-hop%2Fsouthern-rap-hip-hop%2Fdown-south-lyricism%2Fartist-chart.rss Southern Rap/Hip-Hop Sun, 27 Dec 2009 10:14:29 -0800 Top Down South Lyricism Artists on Rhapsody Online art.214 art.214 Scarface art.214 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.214&variant=play&rws=%2Frap-hip-hop%2Fsouthern-rap-hip-hop%2Fdown-south-lyricism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.214&variant=data&rws=%2Frap-hip-hop%2Fsouthern-rap-hip-hop%2Fdown-south-lyricism%2Fartist-chart.rss Mr. Scarface Is Back, established the 5th Ward word slinger as one of rap's most gifted storytellers.

Despite being practically unknown on either coast, Juvie had a serious reputation and developed a huge following across the South and Midwest. By the time his fourth record 400 Degreez dropped in 1998, the charismatic emcee was ready for the big time. "Ha" was his first single to blow up on a national level, featuring the otherworldly electro-crunk production of Mannie Fresh backing his unusual, heavily accented flows. "Back That Azz Up" soon followed, an infectious, booty-shaking anthem that kept the radio and video shows on lock for months. The album went triple-platinum, landed Cash Money an unprecedented $30 million distribution deal, and made Juvie and his Hot Boy$ crew international superstars. Although some scoff at their gold-plated grills, customized helicopters, and proudly violent and sexist lyrics, their perseverance and DIY work ethic made the Hot Boy$ the biggest success story of 1999. - Brolin Winning]]> http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.36930&rws=%2Frap-hip-hop%2Fsouthern-rap-hip-hop%2Fdown-south-lyricism%2Fartist-chart.rss Southern Rap/Hip-Hop Fri, 18 Dec 2009 12:08:50 -0800 Top Down South Lyricism Artists on Rhapsody Online art.36930 art.36930 David Banner art.36930 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.36930&variant=play&rws=%2Frap-hip-hop%2Fsouthern-rap-hip-hop%2Fdown-south-lyricism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.36930&variant=data&rws=%2Frap-hip-hop%2Fsouthern-rap-hip-hop%2Fdown-south-lyricism%2Fartist-chart.rss Them Firewater Boyz, Vol. 1) at the dawn of the new millennium.

Revered for their mellow, bling-free rhyme style and soulful, golden-era-influenced beats, they quickly ascended to the top of the crowded underground scene, especially amongst jaded older fans who considered them the second coming of ATCQ and Pete Rock. In particular, 9th Wonder got a lot of attention from indie and mainstream artists alike; Jay-Z had him contribute a cut on The Black Album, and hooked him up with Destiny's Child for their single "Girl." He also produced entire albums for MURS (Living Legends) and Black Moon frontman Buckshot. Meanwhile, Phonte teamed up with Nicolay (a Dutch producer heavily influenced by 9th) for the much-sweated transcontinental collabo record The Foreign Exchange: Connected (2004), and Big Pooh dropped the excellent solo piece Sleepers (2005). Thanks to quality music and tons of good press, the group was picked up by Atlantic Records and released their sophomore LP The Minstrel Show in the fall of 2005. The album was deemed a classic by SCRATCH magazine and XXL, while the editor of The Source resigned from his post after co-CEO and aging never-ran Benzino lowered Little Brother's mic rating.

Most of the main characters on the show are non-white, the music reflects true pop music so closely you'll have a hard time discerning where Outkast ends and Class of 3000 begins, and the humor that imbues every story detail boggles the mind. The premise concerns Sunny Bridges, a musician who has suffered at the hands of the unscrupulous music industry and returns home to Georgia to end his career, only to be offered a job as a music instructor at a local school. He takes it, flying under the radar to avoid media attention while becoming immersed in the world of his students.

In early 2005, Pooh released his first solo record, the excellent Sleepers, (check "Just Friends" and "Between the Lines"), named so because people were sleeping on him while heaping praise on his homies, 9th Wonder and Phonte. With Little Brother signed to Atlantic and touring the globe, look for Pooh to make more noise, not just in the underground/Internet-rap world, but everywhere. - Brolin Winning]]> http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.44217&rws=%2Frap-hip-hop%2Fsouthern-rap-hip-hop%2Fdown-south-lyricism%2Fartist-chart.rss West Coast Indie Thu, 22 Oct 2009 13:23:59 -0700 Top Down South Lyricism Artists on Rhapsody Online art.44217 art.44217 Mass Influence art.44217 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.44217&variant=play&rws=%2Frap-hip-hop%2Fsouthern-rap-hip-hop%2Fdown-south-lyricism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.44217&variant=data&rws=%2Frap-hip-hop%2Fsouthern-rap-hip-hop%2Fdown-south-lyricism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.23918&rws=%2Frap-hip-hop%2Fsouthern-rap-hip-hop%2Fdown-south-lyricism%2Fartist-chart.rss Dirty South Thu, 22 Oct 2009 13:23:57 -0700 Top Down South Lyricism Artists on Rhapsody Online art.23918 art.23918 Blac Haze art.23918 http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.23918&variant=play&rws=%2Frap-hip-hop%2Fsouthern-rap-hip-hop%2Fdown-south-lyricism%2Fartist-chart.rss http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.23918&variant=data&rws=%2Frap-hip-hop%2Fsouthern-rap-hip-hop%2Fdown-south-lyricism%2Fartist-chart.rss
