edit-since I found what I was looking for...I wanted to know who pionered the coke-rap genre in the 2000s....Cats with no business rappin are making goodmoney while selling the life they use to live....I was thinkin Lord Willin or Trap Muzik...cuz that's what popped it off with all this trap talk...
 
I don't know about who pioneered it, but I know the pinnacle of 2000's coke-rap is Fishscale.

I HIGHLY doubt the Shawty Lo's, Rick Ross', Gucci Mane's, Young Jeezy's, Young Joc's, and every other cat who talks nothing but coke wasinfluenced and steered into rap because they heard those albums..They would obviously be better emcees....

And them cats had more depth than coke...In the 2000s...I'm just tryin to pinpoint a time when it just flooded rap....

I would say HHNF, but Believe that.....
 
^Fishscale's great, but no one does coke rap better than the Clipse & co. have on the WGI4C series.
 
It wasnt pioneered in the 2000s, cats been rapping about using and selling coke since the 80s. Anybody know the song White Lines?

If you are refering to me since im the only "other" person to use the term pioneer in here, let me show you what the OP wrote:

Reading is fundamental, you should try it sometimes.

Pioneer as an adjective: being the earliest, original, first of a particular kind, etc.:
 
I think the OP is talking more of this "persona" coke rap.

Like sure, Jigga and them did a whole bunch of talking, but to say the lease, it was "reasonably" believable when they said it, and when they wereembellishing, it was pretty evident.

I have to believe the OP was referring to the Rick Ross, Jeezy, Shawty Lo, etc. crowd.

If you're talking that crowd... I'd have to say it starts with Jeezy as far as a guy who's mentioning it in EVERY SINGLE SONG... followed bySergeant Rick Ross. I can't really put Clipse in the category with either of these guys, because lyrically it's an insult.

Well..I asked the same thing awhile ago only it was about pills and received similar answers.
 
If I remember straight it was Dipset

I remember seeing some magazine (maybe blender or complex) in blockbuster when Purple Haze came out and it had Cam in one of those small bubbles on the frontand it said something like (His favorite color is pink, his album is purple haze, he says the same word over and over, and loves to rap about cocaine). If youremember early Dipset mixtapes when JR and Hell were getting initiated all their songs were about flipping birds we the byrd gang, human crack in the flesh,and just regualr cocaine rap.
 
Definitely not Dipset...If I remember Lord Willin dropped before Come Home With Me/Diplomatic Immunity.

At least where I'm from...I know that's when %!*%%% started referencing all that coke talk. T.I and Jeezy blew it up for the south.
 
It was T.I.... There wasn't any mainstream southern rappers talking about hustling at the time. Once he showed it was a market for it, the labels startedpushing Jeezy, Ross, Shawty LO etc. Its just like any other type of music. Once somebody is successful, other labels follow that formula until the publicrejects it.
 
I definately dont think it was T.I....I mean he was talking about it but he ain't get it popping like that imo.
 
no one has really said anything new since OB4CL
Say, "Hey, I'm new in town, I don't know my way around
but I got some soft white that's sure to come back brown
I get that butter all night
cause most @%$$$+ don't know a brick from a bike
They keep buyin hard white..."
Code:
and Jay killed all the Heroin talk with that one
 
hmmm I thought it was dip set.... or maybe thats just cuz I remember HUMAN CRACK that use to post in the music forum...
 
Unless I see the papers with the charges I'm sayin half of em didn't do what they talkin bout.

To WHO?!? Your opinion is invalidated now -- solely because you've attempted to pass your personl preference off as dogmatic hip-hop law. I'veNEEEEEEEEEEEEVER heard a single D-boy complain about the complexities and structure of a SINGLE Gucci, L-O, Ross, Jeezy, or Joc verse. Whereyou stay at? What do YOU know about trapping? Fam, I been down them roads and around those people and if ANYBODY likes these artists, it's the dudes thatlive that life. Cuz if it's one thing these guys do well, it's talking about that lifestyle.

To answer your question though, it might have been T.I.'s Trap Music. That's one of the first albums of this mellinium that was released by aMAJOR rapper that focuses on straight hustle talk... I think. But I don't know if TM had the impact it should have. Ican't remember. Clipse don't count ya'll. Put your fan-don aside and realize that their influence is minimal. Jeezy's mixtape run ishuge too (Trap or Die was
