Drake's not really the typical rapper with hype stage presence and can dress etc. But he's cool. Wayne can perform good. The big guys here are : Trey Songz, Lil Wayne, Drake, Clipse, Dout Gotcha, Gucci, Fab, Cass, Wale.
Come to V.A. that's all you'll hear
Wale! That's my favorite rapper out of the bunch you named. I went to the Inauguration back in January, and all of my cousins in PG, Maryland were hyped on Wale. That's how I got into him. Dude is for real.

Nah.
Z-Ro and Trae are at the top of the list. Boosie would move much further down, too. I heard more Boosie in Dallas than in Houston, so it also depends on where you are.

Yeah I like Wale to, it took me going up to the DMV a few times to get into him, but I like his style, its different. DMV stand up!!!! All my peoples in PG, and NE DC whats good???

I said locals, I can't really say Trae and Z-ro are mainstream. Lots of people don't know even know who they are outside of TX or maybe the south.

Yeah Trae and Z-Ro are the best in Houston I think. Be on the lookout for ChalieBoy from Tyler.
Trae and Z-Ro are lyrically gifted. Why aren't they as big as they should be? Why is it when people think of Houston the 1st thing they think is Paul Wall and Mike Jones?

The same reason they only think of E-40 and Keak when they think of the Bay. Whatever sells the most or seems the most marketable will get the most attention. Its such a shame. And once again, Houston and the West are linked together lol.

I agree, whoever sells the most albums. TX and the westcoast stay connected.
One thing I noticed about this music video is, this music video is being played on the channel called The Box. I used to watch The Box all the time when I was little, back when I lived in Florida. That channel brings back memories. What happened to The Box.
Yeah I agree, mind playing tricks on me came out in 91, by then NWA had already broke away from Ice Cube and came out with 100 Miles and Runnin. And Ice Cube had already come out with 2 solo albums, and made the diss track no vaseline against NWA and Jerry Heller, and he was managing YoYo. I say The Geto Boyz put the South on the map, and brought gangsta rap to the south.
I fully agree. 2 Live Crew/Luke may have come out first, and same with Vanilla Ice (Lol), but the Geto Boyz are the ones that put the South on the map in hip hop. A lot of other stuff from the South came out shortly after, but most of it was party music like Tag Team, Duice and 95 South. I think Outkast was probably the next big name in hip hop to hit the mainstream (meaning MTV) from the South after Geto Boyz. Though I'm probably forgetting a couple.
