Do you think Midwest Rap and Southern Rap are similar?

Question

Just think of all the different variety of rappers.And look at how midwest rappers like Shawnna from DTP fits in with Southern rappers like Ludacris. Or how Twista can do a record with Lil Jon and it's a hit. Or some of there subject matters like Do Or Die's Po Pimp. They mentioned lots of things about that lifa and riding Cadillacs and everything. Then you have artist from both regions who are really lyrical like Bone Thugs in the Midwest and Outkast in the South. They have more and common then in other regions and they get along alright but I think they should make a pact officially. A lot of people thinks Nelly is from the south but he's from St.Louis which is Midwest. Plus he rep the Midwest just like Chingy but they also have roots in the South and it's like their second home. I call a lot of Midwest rappers and Southern rapper Hybrid rappers because most of their styles come from both regions. Look at Ludacris he is from the Chi but moved To ATL at 12 years old. What do you think?

Answer 1

I think Houston rappers definitely have a certain style about them, and yes, you do make some good points about Ludacris and Chingy. The only ones who sound similar are the ones who don't have that deep southern accent.

I gotta say I've never heard the term 'Hybrid Rappers.'
