Precisely. The beats also sound like something bulls down south would use.
*Notice how the bull pokes Sparks like 6 or 7 times in the video. True to form, most Philadelphians are very expressive with their hands, and will usually tap you on the arm or shoulder throughout a conversation. Then the conversation will end with a "yahmean."
LOL @ yahmean, that is so true. You are also correct about the beats.
Northeastern hip-hop tends to be more up-tempo while Southern beats are typically much slower, and dragged out a lot more. They sound nothing alike to me either.
I doubt this guy is from DC. First, why is wearing a Yankee fitted? Second, he doesn't have the mannerisms, speech, or dress of your typical black Washingtonian. You're more likely to see dudes dressed like this.
dude, southern cities are just as unique as any other reason. stop throwing everything below the mason dixon line under a "one size fits all" label.
How it ATL music different from Memphis music? Crunk music did not start in ATL. It started in Memphis. There is a reason why most southern cats used to only listen to music from the south. It was because they could all relate to it unlike they could relate to northern Hip-hop.

And cats wearing these...
I wear a Yankee fitted, I like NYC never had a problem with them.
along with my white sox, braves, nationals, orioles, and la fitteds.
but then again I'm not the stereotypical DC black native......
Seriously? Mane? In my five years in the DC area, I never heard the word come out. That's interesting.
i have. i use to date a girl from DC(very well educated) and when she said "well" it sounded like she was saying "whale". she said a few other things, but thats what stuck out the most.
Black people in PG county can be on ATL's jock all they want tho I guess......
This video is classic Washington, DC bravado and hyperbole. "The Streets of PG County are currently more dangerous than Afghanistan." WTF?? PG County doesn't even have "streets." They have big "roads" like Central Avenue and Marlboro Pike. I don't think I've ever lived in a place where the locals boasted so much about how "tough" their city is. When I first moved here, a local told me that I'd be lucky if I made it six months without being robbed or stabbed. In his words, "Philly ain't no DC...y'all don't see the struggle we see down here." What's with these people?
