also called southern rap, is a form of American hip hop music that emerged from a late-1990s club-oriented vibe in southern U.S. cities, including Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, Nashville, Atlanta, Memphis, Birmingham, Alabama, New Orleans, Miami, and Baton Rouge. The music was a reaction to the 1980s flow of hip hop culture from New York City and California, and can be considered a third major American hip hop genre, after East Coast hip hop and West Coast hip hop. Many early Southern rap artists released their music independently or on mixtapes after encountering difficulty securing record-label contracts

Get the Southern Rap mug.Overrated rappers charactarized by little creativity, repetitive subjects matter, limited vocabulary, excess use of nonsensical similies, metaphors, and puns. The only reason they get away with it is because of incredibly high-level production that masks their limited skills. They're primarily seperated by location, and a couple have a higher pitched voice or faster flow, but really they're all the same rapper and easily interchangeable with others who possess the same limited skills.
Examples of a Generic Southern Rapper are the following: Rick Ross, Yung Joc, TI, everyone signed to Swishahouse, Bone Crusher, I could go on forever.
