He even said in an interview that is hard to always rep Harlem, because he is in a company that is from the South. Before she got with lil wayne she was very lyrical. But since the South ruined Hip Hop and now that Garbage hip hop sells well she had to downgrade so her records can sell. For example listen to real Hip Hop by Nicki Minaj when she was starting.

How does being signed to young money affect them repping their city??? Nicki Minaj still does rep Queens; so IDK where ya'll getting that from. The state of hip hop wasn't ruined by the south dude; it took the whole country to do that.

Anyways, Soulja Boy ain't sweating the low Album sales; he's collecting his royalties for writing Whip my Hair; As long as he stays writing simple ass songs for little kids; he'll never go broke again.

I also agree with many on here. Houston, Detroit, Chicago and New York have the realest rappers out there; as far as not faking the hood lifestyle. Drake is good, but his image is very contrived; he know damn well he came from a good home and his family got plenty money.

I like how Lupe and B.O.B stay true to themselves and never plays it up for the media; It just shows you don't need to act all gangsta and hood to be successful in the rap industry.
