Fredo Santana says 50 was his inspiration and that "Heat" was "Drill" music.
I actually thought these dudes said they were heavy on Dipset back then

FACTS.
Chicago took it from Waka.
The whole drill sound is basically what Waka was doin at the beginning of his career minus the (loud) yelling.
Then NY took it from Chicago.

Leave it to NY ****** to claim that they are in fact not biting but that the region they're copying actually got it from them in the first place.
Typical

They shared the majority of their fanbase on a street level.
G Unit was bigger with the casual fans partly because Roc A Fella didn't really allow Cam's star power to reach its full potential because a certain owner of the company was jealous and is complicit in the fall of NY. But..
Lol at ***** running to go find every reference of the word squad to come out of New York.
As is That's the only word them gs9 ****** was taking from Chicago slang.
all them lil dudes have Instagram videos still up where they're on their block listening to all them Chicago dudes. They clearly were looking up to them dudes and they were heavy influences. Why is that hard to admit?

Who is proud and brags about GS9 and Bobby Shmurda?
ok, and...wack rappers were influenced by other wack rappers. You want a cookie?
It's funny how dudes grasp at straws to take credit for slang and every little regional thing they do, but then downplay New York.
You should be proud of lyricism, not wack rappers who are easily imitated, because they don't have talent in the first place.
**** are you talking about? We're only even talking about them because dude bought up that factthey had superstar potential.
What
So how is Kanye is bigger than Cam ever could have been
And Cam was at his peak with Rocafella, and went down hill with the poolside clip and Rocafella/Dipset breaking up
T Squaaaddduuuuzzzz
I still play that Terror Squad album.
I'm confused, is someone trying to say Wayne started Squad? That's laughable.

Sent shots to N.O. over that.
But homie was talkin about repeatin it throughout the verse as an adlib.
Kanye is one of the 3 biggest artists in hip-hop. Who isn't he bigger than?
And that contributes to my point, "Big Brother" Ye talks about some of the BS Jay did to him. And Jay and Cam didn't see eye to eye, so just imagine what he was doing to Cam. At the time Cam was the 2nd biggest artist on Roc. The 'Purple Haze' delay? The Roc break up? As you said Cam was at his peak with ROC, and his downfall was the breakup and the way Diplomats left. I mean look a Juelz he was handcuffed to Def Jam and still might be to this day, he debuted in 03. 2 well received projects between Diplomatic Immunity and FMTY dropped his 2nd joint came out 10 years ago.
Even look at the poolside incident. He was punched by Tru Life. At the time Jay-Z's "artist". You think he signed that dude cause he believed in him? He signed him to go at Dip Set.
So you're telling me Jay has NO blood on his hands when it comes to NY's downfall?
Jay didn't wanna sign Ye.
I'm sure he didn't wanna sign Cam.
He's just a business man.
With Cam they didn't like one another. And they both felt it was worth sacrificing the financial benefits of keeping a relationship. If Cam and Jay could've come to an understanding the way him and NaS did NY wouldn't be in its current state. They don't play Diplomats in 40/40 come on. Jay played a part in the city's downfall he knew he could adjust. He followed BIG blueprint from 'Life After Death', still does. Cam did when he was at Roc as well.
As you mentioned, Jim Jones was one of NYs top rappers circa 07. Do we need further evidence about the death of NY hip-hop and absence of talent?
Jim Jones was a TOP rapper in the last 10 years in NY. **** he still might be, which is scary and sad at the same time.
I don't think Jim Jones is any less talented than the B/C grade rappers of the south, but there's no way he should be a top artist from ANY region and expect to be respected anywhere.
Which further proves NY is dead.
Cam should be able to do a project with a Harry Fraud or something new with Araab and at least have a 2Chainz level Buzz and Rick Ross level of critical acclaim. Where's NY's Juicy J? We need a veteran than can kinda recreate himself and stay vintage form. Me and my homies was talking about that few days before I made the thread.
NY coming back has to be done on all levels. Our representation is absent in damn near all levels. Talent is the issue with the young generation and I guess work ethic, and diminished skills is the problem with the old.
