    Im 51 from Texas and man let me tell you you weren't nobody if you didnt have the latest Ball and JG cassette. The impact they had on hip hop in my opinion is only rivaled by RUN DMC and UGK. They are by far in the upper echelon of hip hop and this piece you did coming from a young buck perspective is VERY WELL put together bro. Keep doing your thang

    • @TheMossNet
      @TheMossNet  9 місяців тому +6

      Thank you so much for that compliment I deeply appreciate it. I just felt like they really don’t get the credit they deserve in hip hop lyrically. So since they’re my favorite duo of all time. I had to give them their flowers with this episode. I had to re-edit this episode 3 times before I got it right.

    Man, man, man!
    I'm born and raised in New Orleans. So, I was always looking for lesser known artists on the scene. I remember finding "Coming out Hard" in the record store. I grabbed it because they're from the south, and at that time, the south was just starting to make our mark in the hip hop game. From first listen, I was hooked. They had a fan. Before long, everyone was bumping that tape around the city. These guys are living legends for sure. They deserve more love than they've been getting.

Listen, bro, the simplicity of them beats, the deep southern rythms, and the clear lyrical story tellin them boys came with I still get chills listening to them songs. Southern Lyrical Excellence.

    I moved to Memphis in 1994. I preferred Ball and G over 3-6 at the time. I remember watching Yo! MTV Raps that showcased OutKast. At the end of the episode, the entire Dungeon Family was going nuts huddled up in a Cadillac listening to Ball’s verse from South Circle’s “Unsolved Mysteries”. Justifiably so. My man said he was 350 of Pimp N--a from Tennessee.

I work with a lot of young cats who put me on some good music every now and then. In return, I give a classic Ball and G song to digest. 😂 and they love it. Two underrated artist of all time.

    The album, Comin’ Out Hard, had the streets of, Memphis, in a frenzy. Everywhere in the city where there was anyone interested in hip hop was playing that album. No radio play was needed. No hype necessary. It was banging out of the trunks of vehicles, out of the houses, on every corner of, Memphis. Real people, real street credibility. That type of love that highly commercialized artists can’t pay for.

Spent many all nighters getting to bag listening to the Goats. I’m from Michigan and they got played plenty. My top three rappers Scarface, 8 Ball, E40 somedays I be like Ball my number one lol.

Stop the narrative that we didn’t play out of town music because we definitely did and most of our aunts uncles and grandparents and cousins for that matter comes from the south for sure. Please continue to educate and show that we all play each other’s music.
    The powers that be tricked y’all again.

    Around the late 80s early 90s The Geto Boys was dominating the rap game in the south on the underground level. Then by 1991'' The 1st rapper i heard out of Memphis was ''Gangsta Pat'' his 1st album is a Hood Classic. Gangsta Pat is a Memphis Legend. Ball And MJG would come out around ''1993'' with ''Comin Out Hard'' Then 1994'' ''On The Outside Lookin In'' And On Top Of The Word in ''1995''. These 3 albums are my favorites by Ball & MJG. These albums went hard in the hood without no video's And no Internet at that time it was nothing But record stores back then🎶😎

It was Trues & Vouges, and speaker boxes with high power amps!! You could hear everybody's music roaring as they pasted by. Shawty, it was crazy how every car passed by you was bumpen Coming out Hard tape. It was over night. No cap. Their muzic is, and will forever stay in my rotation! I will never forget one night around 1999, or 2000. Me and my homies were in a club called World Bar, and they popped out of nowhere and started performing!!! We lost it. The best part was getting to pass MJG the blunt, and dap him up. All of my homies passed to them too, shid they was passing too😂

    I'm from Chicago and I first got a hold of that coming out hard in late winter early spring in 94 when I was 15. Armed robbery was the song that I loved and through that song I started to love the rest of that album. But the vibe in high school and in the neighborhood everybody was loving those two cats. In every ride was bumping that Mr big, all the girls in highschool was singing nigas like us. We had this teacher named Mr osby who was from orange mound, but moved to Chicago to become a teacher. He got much respect because he was cool people, and him being from where ball and G from. All in all this we loved those cats and still do, but they was huge where I came up at.

    Love this Dedication. I'm from St. Louis MO. My best friend had cousins from Memphis. We were like the first ones that were playing Comin' Out Hard in the hood. My friend's older brother had a gold Jetta and put tint letters on the back dashboard with Comin Out Hard on it. Everyone was like what are yall listening to? St. Louis loves 8 Ball & MJG. We rode to that tape all summer and year. The next Thanksgiving the Memphis cousins put us on Lyrics of a Pimp and On the Outside Lookin' In. Then it was over when Space Age Pimpin came out. Man, you have me reliving my childhood. We got a hold of Indo G and Lil Blunt. Tripe 6 came later on. This is probably the most underrated group ever. Especially MJG.

    This was beautifully done sir! 8 Ball and MJG inspired a kid coming from RVA to Nashville TN in 95. My whole production approach was developed there and I was listening them hard! They made me start playing keys and adding in real instruments over top of the samples and all! Came back from there and started cutting records!! And I was the first to bump them around my city!!! People lost their mind and I told them then, the South bout to take over! You couldn’t deny it and they did and still doing it!!!
