I think you have to be from the bay because hyphy is the exhibition of what is engrained in your veins from living here, you could make hyphy music and be from somwhere else, and it might sound good, but its not genuine without the real life experience of livin here.

lil scrappy says go dummy on that new 'oh yeah' song with e-40. but its not a hyphy song. And to answer the original question, no i wouldnt like it because the only chance we'd have of hearing it is if that person was already in the national spotlight, and then they'd be biting our shit

i dont think it's jumpping on anything because some people might look at it as MAN I USE TO GET HYPHY BEFORE I KNEW IT WAS CALLED THAT LoL
I was just telling my little sister that last night...I laugh at the so called "hyphy movement" because niggaz where I am from been retarded since way way back... And I'm a little confused on how bay cats can steal other niggaz culture but hate when someone does the same to them...I always thought dreads was a New York, Miami thing...the same with long ass necklaces and gold teeth... Bay rappers used used to have major spits and were northen california trendsetters... In my opinion anything involving the word hyphy that isn't coming from Keak the Sneak, is some wack copy cat sh*t....Muthafuckas try to make it seem like everyoen is biting the bay, we are black folks we copy anything we see other black people do, that we ain't doing and that's real talk!!!!

Hyphy is from the streets its niggaz actin hella hyphy hella high energy, crack babies, headbussas lil niggaz not giving a fuck THATS WHAT HYPHY REALLY IS.. hyphy is not a genre within hiphop


But if you look at it like that hyphy aint never been no bay thing it was a oakland thing that started in the streets niggaz been hyphy before the word hyphy.. so you could say the same for the rest of the bay gettin hyphy they on the bandwagon too.. not that i really give a fuck about that just making a point
