That's an amazing accomplishment. Luda is a hard working cat.
Now, people need to start mentioning his underrated rap style.
LUDA...dats my nigga. an amazing accomplishment indeed. right on the money kizzle.
You Know Thats Funny Cuz I Didnt See TI Name In There And He's The "King Of The South" Right? Lol Wrong
Congrats luda, The Preview is a nice mixtape
HAHAHAH how does ANyone just declare they are the King of something then get busted by its governance..... thats kinda ironic
all i can say is congratulations and he definitly deserved it
some of u are sayin u dont see TI in there...thats cause he hasnt been doin it as long as luda has...im sure that TI will get his share of awards when its his time
I AGREE THA TRUE KING OF THA SOUTH LUDACRIS. NIGGA DESERVE IT. ALL HIS ALBUMS WAS THA SHIT N THEATHER OF THA MIND GON BE A CLASSIC IM CALLIN IT
good job Luda, you really deserve that award. you are too underrated man.
That is amazing! and thats good for Hip hop. But I think Outkast should be in that position. Not hatin on Luda Congratulations.
does that officially make luda king of atl?
this is a monumental accomplishment for a well deserving and talented artist... big ups to ludacris (YUAH!)
Good for Luda
Good for him, just started to listen to his Preview mixtape, shits nice...
Luda has really stepped his game up(from an already solid game) recently, he deserves this for sure
he belongs there.........he's SOOOO underrated
both of y'all jump off them dicks and respect this game equally... except 4 dem fake rappers like Soulja Boy n plies
^^umm i think the main reason most niggas hate soulja boy is because HES FUCKING GARBAGE
so you tellin me that soulja boy keeps it real huh??? I hate soulja boy because hes garbage and thinks he has the right to diss like legends like GZA and Ice-T. But I know you understand because you just too busy suckin T.I's dick. Get dat dick out ya mouth.
ye soulja boy keeps it real whats so fake about him?? he a lil kid who makes wack music, i dont c what hes fakin? i dont c why u sayin hes fake an u probaly suck as a dj with that gay ass name u probaly have no gigs pussy step ur paper up u broke ass fake dj, play soulja boy in the club an may b ull get a gig
zigga_z gettin mad rofl? Shut yo canadian ass up. Soulja Boy keeps it real WTF!!!
shut your pusssi eatin mouth up racist basterd go fck urself its ppl like u who give ppl like me a bad name
aww the little canadian is getting offended.
So people like us give y'all a bad name, ok den iceback, Moosefucker, what u gon do eh? U going to cry to your mommy aboot whats going on on defsounds rofl... I'm done wit dis Canuck.
Oh dude I love eatin pussy. I forgot that most you bay frogs like dick.
aright cheerleaders go listen to dtp magic off his new mixtape an ur guys saviour is shoting out my home town cus he needs the love down here, cus las time i checked my "conuck" niggas bitched him an his whole crew down
u mean "up here" but I get the point and I know he shouted out ya city.
but 2 b real wit u. I'm not a racist to canadians because my girlfriend is half canadian. Secondly, I really don't know if soulja boy is fake or real in the streets but when it comes to rap hes fake. In my book of hip hop, keepin it real is putting an effort in your lyrics and fake is the opposite of this (not putting an effort in your lyrics). As for the DJ thing I got 15 mixtapes on datpiff and the 16th is coming soon and all got good ratings. As for Gigs, I don't do gigs. Not every DJ does gigs, I only do mixtapes, I'm not broke and I think owning a $200,000 house in southern NJ explains alot of it. As for me playing soulja boy to get a gig, It be a cold day in hell before I play dat wack rapper. And I won't lie T.I. is cool but hes not the king of the south, give that to Scarface or 8Ball & MJG (dat be kings of the south tho). I don't mean listen to only nas to respect this game. Like who u want but stop the dick riding.
Who Gives A Fuk What A Hata Gotta Say....
_____TRUTH
why did u even say my name at the start of that bullshit u just said
My dude Luda doin it big as usual...He's the king of the south by far...much respect to T.I., but he can't say dat he's a hall famer...Learn it.
ReDef.
yea u right . T.I isz 1 of my phavoritesz but he can't say he Hall of Fame .
i bet you gonna hear ti bitching now lol like he did at the grammys.
LOL How You Gotta Bitch nd Hate On T.I. When You Got Him As Favorite Artist On Ya Page....
Haha...
lmfao
This Is The First Awarding...
Get Off T.I.'s Hater List, Let Him Take His Time, ( 2nd Biggest Debut Album Surely Will Be Mentioned Plus Up Coming Paper Trail )
Luda...He Deserves That...
& Good They Squash The Beef, Watch The Video Bwt 2 Months Ago If U Ain Seen It... Lol
Now They Can Make Good Music Together..
_____TRUTH
Them Boys Not Gon B Makin Music Together. They Respect Each Other But They Dont Like Each Other...2 Diff Things
Congrats to Luda. Always one of my favorite southern artists.
Im happy for Luda also. He definately deserves it. No disrespect to Tip, but Luda is the true king of the south.
haha truthbeheard i fucks with ti but most of his songs dont make sense to me.
he deserves it 110% is his effort
LUDACRIS works hard n its payin off
Ludacirs doing it big he doin 2 movies and has a album on the way,but screw Geaorgia's Music Hall of fame they need a Houston Music Hall of Fame to honor niggas like Scarface, Pimp C, Big Moe n the rest of them, holla at ya boy
theres no music hall of fame with all rap
lol. u jus reppin' 4 yo city huh?^
That's what's up for Luda. Still not tryin to down anyone but what about OutKast?
luda has bigger appeal bigger scope.
Good for Luda
He is proly the only southern rapper worth mentioning (ther then outkast)
he can actually rhyme and not end every verse with "mayne"
MUCH BETTER THEN T.I.
why you hatin man, luda and t.i. are both dope.. and they respect each other
AINT YOU SEE THAT PARKER REPORT?
Luda is so talented I mean just look at this line..."Hip Hop's God in these jeans now thats 'True Religon'" A double metaphor in itself...TALENT
I NEVER KNEW WHAT DA LINE MEANS
yea i was wondering the same thing, i'm glad to see him in there because he does the damn thang BUT is Outkast in it and if not why hell not???
congrats and the mixtape is worth paying for its that damn good.
Congrats!! Luda finally gettin his due. "He been a monster in this game similar to the Loch Ness" since he came on the scene. Well deserved.
And i totally agree that Outkast belong in there as well.
Ludas makin movies and in the Hall of Fame
TI's in the snitchin Hall of Fame
im glad to see luda in georgia music hall of fame, but it aint fair to compare his career 2 tip's. yes luda has sold more records than tip, but luda is much more commerical than ti. so to me with takin that into consideration, and tip's legal situation, it makes since that luda would get in b4 tip. and another thing, i didn't see jd or outkast's name on that list either. look at their contributions to the atl hiphop seene.
i always said, for the past fucking 6 years ive been saying the same shit.. LUDA IS THE BEST RAPPER ALIVE wether u like or not... GONGRATS MY NIGGAAAAAA.. u deserve it.. DTP 4 LIFE...
How can they put luda in before outkast, they tripin
captain dont hate. outkast will get theirs no doubt but luda been putttin it down fo 10 years(pre-stardom) over 16million records sold and only what 2,3,maybe 4 awards that's a insult. Luda fuck the haters u got yo true fans behind u go and go get yours. CRIS YOUR TIME IS NOW.
dtp4life i aint hatin brah but outkast deserve it more been doing it before luda and pave the way for rappers like luda, even luda can tell u dat brah,luda goes hard and he one of the best right now but that dont mean outkast shouldnt been inducted b4 him, they been going platnium in 95 winning awards in 95, they the fathers of the south with Master P(Nolimit), Scarface(getto boys),UGK(rap-a-lot),Goodie Mobb,Uncle Luke
oh yeah if u really a DTP fan buy lil fate new cd "do u believe in fate" his first single is off the chain. go to down-south.com to check up on fate. Hits stores 3rd week of august. And check on i-20's status with 3 hit singles "Down south" "flicking ashes" and "come see me then". i-20 in my opinion is 2nd best in DTP.
Well deserved. Luda been on his grind since he got into theg game and no one ever game him the full credit he deserved. I hope shuts all the haters up with another fire album.
Congrats
yeah congrats but what about outkast i didnt see they name on that list
THATZ A REAL GOOD LOOK! CONGRATZ LUDA!! HE DESERVE THAT SPOT..HE STAY GIVIN IT UP 4 GA.!!
BLACK WALLSTREET BITCH!
Ludacris = Legend of The South
big up 2 luda he really deserve dis he been puttin alot of effort 2 everything he do
bout time hes gettin therecognition he deserves
Ludaa!!!! He cold. He needed that recognition to keep him level-headed about being underrated. The most underrated. Since his first big hits he's been spittin. You can say he's commercial all you want but the facts still remain that there's nothing fake about getting your money. MOB nigga what!!!!! Why does everybody have an opinion about who's the king when really hip-hop was meant to unite black people? It was meant to tell a story and teach. Not the glamour and glory that most artists look for these days. This award is well-deserved. Keep doin it bruh!!!
Congratulations Luda, and about f'ing time! Luda is probably the best round package rapper there is. He's big commercially, yet he still has street credibility and well respected. Anything Luda touches is platinum. He has lyrical content and is always fresh, his flows are sick and catchy, he appeals to both genders. You can count the number of rappers who can do what Luda does in one hand. I think only Jay-Z has this type of appeal close to Luda. As much as I like Nas, he's lryical and smart and all that, but does not have the commercial appeal Luda has. Luda is what every rapper should strive for, he can ride that thin line on commercially successful yet still respected by the streets and still hold his own and do joints with the likes of Nas. I don't know a person who doesn't like Ludacris, period!
Dats a good look Luda, you deserve it. Keep making hits and thinking outside of the box.
Luda deserve dat honor. i been bumpin 2 his rap 4 eight years now but Outkast betta be dere soon 2 for all dey dun 4 Hip-Hop!
