He Must be really in Touch with the Streets. LIL FLIP got his ass kicked for trying to hate on T.I., now FLIP done had his 15 minutes of fame. The ball is in T.I.'s court now. LIL "FLIP" has officially Been turned into LIL "FLOP!"

becuase TI is the only one that cares...(other than Flip)..
about being the King of the South..

my opinion...he has about 10 yrs and 4 more albums...before he proclaims somethin like that..
...and those albums have to go atleast 2X plat..

NO!
im sayin...mothafuckas dont care about that shit..
i remember when all that Lil Flip Vs. TI shit started..

...TI got a interview with Scarface..and even Face is sayin "I dont give a shit about being the King"..
....and damn near everyone at the time was sayin..."Scarface is the real King" (even Lil Flip...which is why TI did that interview)..
...

all in all....i think most folks just think TI got a big ass mouth...with 1 platinum album outta 3 to back it up....
....cause when all this shit boils down...
Its your sales that do the talkin ...not your mouth..
...
and thats why i have said all along...Lil Flip got 1 up on TI..
when it comes to sales....
...
in my honest opinion...neither of them...are fuckin wit alot of folks from the South..

u say 1 platinum album outta three doesnt mean hes not a king....how many has scarface have to be king of the south?having plaque doesnt mean your a king or not....its your skills on the mic and how much u repen ur shyt....thats why pac...biggie...and them other kats are still loved...they did their thing and showed major love for their areas and what not....i respect T.I. and his music..i think he got style and skills on the mic and i support the kat to the fullest.....

Slim Thug is the BOSS
Lil Flip is the Leprachun
Lord Infamous is the Scarecrow
Koopsta Knicca the devils son

I was discussing your question with my San Antone and H-Town folkz.
For someone out in Cali or out of state for this matter;I complete understand how you can come to that conclusion.

However, thats not how it is.

TI can call himself whatever he want, the South don't care about that shit, thats why you don't hear anything about it. THERE IS NO CONTROVERSY.

These homiez on bigger, more important business-than "titles".
Like gettin dealz, makin money...takin care of fam.

What hustlin azz, grown man, wana take time, money and energy out of his day to respond to another cat callin himself the "king"??.....thats laughable homie. Thats pitty.

A BOSS reacts like a BOSS...and a BOSS don't pay no mind to pitty shit for pitty foolz.


It's like High School-
You always have one muthafucca runnin round talk bout this is his school, well, he can say that shit all he want, but he ain't going to fucc with me, my money, my homies and my bitch....period.



thats really all i have to say-

do i think TI is the king of the south ........hell nah

is flip ....no

the only person who could really claim that would b

.......SCARFACE......but he above the title shit.....everyone knows who he is and every one respects him cause he been doin it since what '88....

but true if TIPDRILL gon call him self the king of the south and not have any takers in challengin him for dat title.he was sadly mistaken.....and flip being my fav rapper im glad it was him......cause TIPDRILL hadnt really proved himself to b shit but a B class Artist b4 him and the flip beef.....

this beef has helped his career tho......cause even on that NEVER SCARED single didnt help him wit shit.......he had album out then and didnt do nothin .......lol.....

but o well......HoLLa BacK......


yall had alot of good points tho.....i like this thread.....makes me wanna post more......Duece
