Yeah, i was listening to that club hoppin song when i decided to make this thread, i get ALOT of bad reactions from local people and IC when it comes to alaska rap, some of these guys can kick that shit, some are wack...like everywhere else. I hope I see the day an alaska rapper gets a top 40..it better happen.

Bay dilla has a couple videos out that I like and look the most professional, songs are "just me", "they know" and "thats my hood"

 

[Soloman_The_Wise]

they better have a Cold Ass Flow if hey want to get props for their area...

 

[907 Kid]

Soloman, i agree. I have spent the last year listening and trying to like everyone coming out of this motherfucker but i mean...at the end of the day, they just wanna talk about how they are a boss and thats it, homeboy hooks up the FL and they sound way out of place. First off, I dont care how much of a "boss" you think you are, as an alaskan, and you "reppin" us, if your such a fuckin boss, blow this shit wide open man, you guys dig it? smh...I mean, these guys have to have enough common sense to realize that they are already at a disadvantage so rapping about the same shit as guys from atlanta, LA or NYC is just diggin your own grave, they cant compete like that as far as hood shit goes...idk...maybe im wrong, but i believe someone...somewhere...in this state needs to once and for all say "im from alaska, this is good music, let it be known, we are serious and our grind is top notch". and PROVE it by creating their own lane...otherwise, shit...whats the point? besides local bar shows and your team thinking your going places until one day you wake up with that gray hair..

No but that alaskan fisherman joint w thirstin howell was flames

Yo, alaska is a rugged fuckin place, or at last could be...

We got stray dogs, yall got stray mooses, namean?

Plenty material...

Plus, when a whole area feels so powerless that they have to mimic another area, they will never get any play.

A city doesnt blow until they have a distinct sound, accent alone won't get it...

So forgive my ignorance, does alaska have a sound, mister 907?
