Breh I can name more groups in 98 over them dudes.
UGK
8ball and MJG
Hot Boys
TRU
Kast
In 98, this year, we in this year, not in 2018, We talking waking up in the year 1998, in this climate:
Kast would be the last group that a nigga would consider album buying out of the groups I just listed
They’re nicer lyrically than anybody in any of those camps

Lyrics were not the thing in 98 as I explained in a previous post, but in 2018 today yea, you can say that, 98, them dudes weren't making noise like that

idk who the 7-10 posters were
and again if the purpose of the tournament is the goat song from that year, how does a song like it aint my fault dont get a mention?
im not talking about quality of song...b/c i know that song in particular aint just oozing with lyrics, but the shit was just as much an anthem as any song nominated by DMX

I agree but lyrics aren’t the only part of music.
Lyrics were always a thing. That’s the only quantifiable way to judge a rapper.
Can’t really judge off music because that’s subjective.
as it should've been
but what does THAT have to do with what we're talking about now? lol
Ya'll acting like the tourney fulfilled its southern quota or some shit with two songs from Juvenile and two songs from outkast
again...I wasnt taking a dig at you, so i wanna make that clear, BUT, if you hosting the tourney, and out of ALL the niggas that frequent this thread, you see that 7-10 nominated songs...or let me suggest what I would've done
gone to google, looked up albums released in 98 and maybe cherry pick a few songs outside of what everyone else picked just to add i lil more variety
now i see how a song like back that azz up got paired up against slippin
But there are only so many slots to fill. Maybe if there were more songs then eventually a No Limit song would make the cut.

Man we can't re-write rap history,. Yea, I fucks with Kast, but to say these songs were the GOAT in 98? when No Limit ran that year alone, the hottest label in the Country and we got a group that wasn't even Top 3 in 98 with a hot song? Come on man, either we don't know, are we being bias, and I know that's not the case, we got a lot a rap historians on here.
Kast??
C-Murder & UGK - AKickdoe?? Shit was everywhere in the South, Every club, house party, played the hell outta this song, I'm willing to bet, some folks haven't even heard of the song until today, that's why we get history so messed up. That song was literally in everybody's club, party, parking lot, in the South

do you have a thread where all the songs were nominated in the tourney bracket vs the individual threads?
I was living in NY when Aquemeni dropped. It got 5 mics in The Source, so to say that Outkast didn't take off until 2001 is nonsense.
Having said that, I don't remember Hot 97 playing anything from the album, but it got 5 mics.
I do remember Hot 97 playing I'm Bout It in 97 and Make Em Say Uuuugh and It Ain't My Fault in 1998.

Yes they were a top tier group. Before the south blew up they held y’all down in an era dominated by the east and the west.
There you go, they were regional until 98. I'm not an Outkast fan at all but their music went all across the country, they were the top dudes coming out the South before No Limit got hot
Check the 98 preliminaries thread.
