Tell Em Why You Mad: David Banner Addresses People Hating On The South
RealTalkNY talked to David Banner recently about his new album, “Greatest Story Ever Told,” and Hip Hop. He was in a joking mood until I brought up people hating on the south. Banner adamantly stated, “You know most niggas that bitch and moan, be broke niggas that can’t sell records. 50 Cent ain’t trippin, Jay-Z ain’t trippin, is he? He’s making money.” David Banner felt that people need to worry about making their own music successful instead of criticizing others. He also felt that New York rappers didn’t show Southern artist the same love they were given. David Banner went on to say:
Work on you, work on your life, if we spent as much time on our own material and our own songs, we wouldn’t have to worry about another nigga. If niggas feel the south ain’t doing what they want them to do, spend some more time on your shit and make your people blow up.
South niggas was the only niggas that always put everybody on their shit. We put New York niggas on our shit, but then when they make their records, you don’t hear us on their records. When they put their records out, after they suck up or fame and come and get our fans, they get on their record and don’t give us that kind of shine.
Make a hit record and stop bitching.
Homey got a point, some people are just bitter. Makes me think of the haters on this site lol.

F*CK THIS B*TCH *SS N*GGA.
DAVID WHO?
N*GGA TALKING ABOUT MAKING HIT RECORDS.. N*GGA, YOU’S A ONE HIT WONDER B*TCH N*GGA.
JUST LIKE ALL THEM SOUTH CATFISH-EATING, HOG MAUL COOKING, GOAT *SS F*CKING, COW TITTY SUCKING, COUSIN MARRYING, SANDAL WEARING, SIMPLE-MINDED DR. SEUSSE, MOTHER GOOSE RHYME SPITTING, KEPP IT REAL.
THE ONLY REASON YOU GETS NO RESPECT IS BECAUSE YOUR SH*T AIN’T WORTH RESPECTING.
THE ONLY CATS IN THE SOUTH WITH ANY RESPECT ARE THE ONES WITH LONGEVITY.. THE ONES WITH SOME INTELLECT.
AS OF NOW, I’M NAMING OFF SOME NAMES.. IF YOUR NAME IS UNCLUDED, YOU GETS MAD RESPECT ACROSS THE CONTRY.. BUT THE REST OF YOU NAPPY-HEADED, SIMPLETONS.. YOU ON BLAST AS A ONE-HIT WONDER AND NOBODY WILL REMEMBER YOU IN A YEAR’S TIME.
BIP UPS TO:
OUTKAST
LUDA
SCARFACE
ALL THE REST OF YOU LAME F*CKS, SUCK A DIRTY D*CK AND STOP KILLING HIP-HOP..
WEST!
Garbage music is everywhere east, west, south, midwest. They just have to stop putting out garbage music in general and make quality music… 1
But ya’ll might be missing his poing, he’s saying: If your so hot and you think we’re so wack, then make something that can knock us off the top then.
I respect that, as a matter of fact, I think there is a lot of opportunity for someone to come in and be different than a lot of the music out today but still have great records.
Just think about it, if you have great records that also have substance and are respected, you’ll stand out, because a lot of the songs are good singles, but they lack substance and staying power, kind of like fast food.
So I take what he’s saying as:
“If your tired of McDonalds, quit bitching and make a steak”
How can you disagree with that?
HATE HATE HATE NOW I CAN GET MY DAY STARTED
TELL EM DAVID BANNER,FUUUCK UM! ONLY BROKE AZZ NIGGAS COMPLAIN AND TALK SHIIT,and i agree with number 8..
HATERS… REALTALK Your site just full of dick riding mutherfckers…. I mean dog, please give it break already. Wats wrong with u east coast niggas.. U got horse dick stuck up ur anus with no vaseline or something lol.. Get a life and and do something for urself.. like start rapping about something better than shooting urselves in da foot..

LOL, damn there are some passionate MFs on here!!!
co-sign david banner and #8 calkutta
thats what im on. how you gonna be mad that the mainstream public is embracing a lot of southern music? step ya game up and quit bitchin. in the end, as long as you stay true to yourself then you cant really get mad at anyone. if you cookin steak as calkutta says, and a lot of mainstream hip hop fans want to get some mcdonalds, than so be it. at least you can respect yourself and your craft. mainstream hip hop fans are fickle anyway. they might embrace you today and throw you off a cliff tomorrow. so if you bitchin about dollars then step or switch ya game/marketing up or stop complaining.
Tell David Banner, to suck an AIDS dick (no homo) and die slowly.
Like Banner said.. U got all types of niggas in every place.. Please dont generalize and think the opinions on this Site reflect that of all NYC’ers.. Cuz truth of the matter is.. Real nigga aint got time to be online like that.. Im in VA right now I moved outta NYC n the only reason im on here is cuz im at work bored as a muthafucka.. If I was in NYC I probably wouldnt have time to post.. Let alone read a lot of the bullshyt niggaz be postin..
#6, now how much time and energy did you waste doing all that unnecessary hating? You could of spent that time jogging or doing something constructive. And you say most of US lack intellect in the South? We may be “embarrasing” or killing hip hop, but your embarrasing yourself.
i dont hate the South music cuz its the South…I HATE THE SOUTH MUSIC CUZ 85 PERCENT OF THE SOUTH MUSIC IS THE SAME SHIT!!!!!!…NO SUBSTANCE
NOT BITCHING…MOST SOUTHERN DUDES FUCKING SUCK AND CANT STEP UP THEIR PEN GAME…IMO
DAVID BANNER JUST PISSED CUZ HE KNOWS HE WANT MAKE ANOTHER LIKE A PIMP SONG…STFU AND GO BACK IN UR HOLE
Agree, David Banner been making beats in the game for a minute. He just tried the rap shit, but he been producing music.
LOL..
PEOPLE OBVIOUSLY DON’T SEE WHERE i GIVE PROPS TO THOSE WHO DESERVE IT.
LIKE DUDE UP TOP SAID, ABOUT 85% OF SOUTHERN RAP IS ASS WHIPE.
WHERE ARE THE DUDES WHO SHOULD BE REPPING IT RIGHT?
THE STEAK/MCDONALDS ANALOGY REALLY DON’T FIT HERE, AS WHEN IT COMES TO RADIO THERE REALLY IS ONLY WON PLACE TO ‘EAT’.. YOU DIG?
IT’S MORE LIKE A CAFETERIA, WHERE WE ALL ARE FORCED TO EAT.. IT’S THE ONLY PLACE IN TOWN.. AND THEY SERVING UP SOME NASTY GARBAGE SLOP, SIMPLY BECAUSE DUDES WITH SHIT TASTE OUTNUMBER DUDES WHO FANCY STEAK AND LOBSTER OR EVEN A GOOD F*CKING BURGER OR SOME SALMON OR ANYDAMN THING BUT THE CRAP THEY SERVING.
IT’S LIKE THEY ARE ASKING,”WHAT SHOULD WE PUT ON THE MENU FOR TOMORROW?” AND ALL YOU DUMB F*CKS ANSWER,”SLOPPY JOES!”
“NO EFFORT, LOW QUALITY.. SURE WHY NOT, LET THEM HAVE THEIR SLOPPY JOES.. LOL.”
F*CK THAT, I KNOW BETTER.
I KNOW WHAT REAL ARTISTS ARE CAPABLE OF AND I WANT THAT GOOD SH*T. I’M DONE WITH HAVING TO TURN THE RADIO OFF JUST SO THAT I DON’T DUMB DOWN MY INTELLECT BY LISTENING TO THESE LAME F*CKS.
SO, SNAP YA FINGERS ALL YOU WANT..
IN THE END, YOU’RE THE ONES EATING THE GARBAGE AND ASKING FOR MORE WHEN YOU COULD’VE HAD SWORD FISH TO BEGIN WITH.
AMEN……… I HOPE YOU YOUNG LAND RIDERS LISTEN AND LISTEN GOOD… FOCUS ON YOU!!! not the next man
but the south lyrics is doo doo just hot shitt next>>>
Co-sign #8 like a mu’fuka
Im saying AMEN to David Banner’s remarks .. not the post above me
only south music make dem ladyz shake their money maker
Southern rap blows. When dudes are writing lyrics more for a fuckin ringotne than for a good song, thats when shit is whack. All the dance, beat-driven hip-hop is bullshit. Itjust makes a bad name for hip-hop in general. In fact, i don’t even consider Most Southern rap as hip-hop, it’s hit it and quit it music. 95% of southern rappers you don’t hear about after their first fuckin single. Take a page out of Nas’ book, learn to write, tell a fuckin story once and a while, than get back to me. Oh, and that other 5% is Outkast, Luda, & Scarface, with Weezy thrown in there for the time being. NYC = hip-hop birthplace. we the fuckin womb of hip-hop. it lives in these streets and anyone who got anything different to say needs to do their fuckin homework.
IF YOU DON’T LIKE THE MUSIC, DON’T LISTEN AND MAKE YOUR OWN!!
fo real man i dunt like the south rap shit at all but i respect sum of it like T.I shit like that u can let pass u kno even tho if it aint strong lyrically its still good music but shit like aye bay bay and all that garbage thats the shit thats killin hip hop but fuck david banner that mothafuka should stick a dick in his mouth he talks to much… nigga the south music is just a fad u can start seein it fadin away and that new song by joc “coffee shop” is almost as bad as aye bay bay or D4L nigga that shits rediculous
California dude is a hater he just mad cause who is the last person out of L.A. wit any buzz besides the game(and he got a New York flow)and tha LAX Boys LOL….. yeah california birthed gangsta rap and they say gangsta rap is killing hip-hop today so who should u be mad at…… Everybody Hates on the south because they say it killed hip-hop but in reality people are so caught in whats real Hip-Hop nobody knows anymore……
GOING OUT TO: Shyne Poe , Joey A , KillaCalifornia213 , perplextongue , ayo , and anyone else that has hate in their blood..
I took the time to read all this because im bored at work..
DAMN ALL THESE PEOPLE IN HERE TALKING ABOUT MAKE “GOOD MUSIC”… WHAT IS GOOD MUSIC?.. PLEASE TELL ME..and if you know how to do it then why are you on here typing?.. Get your ass in a studio and make some money.. You guys are so funny.. The sad part is you don’t even realize how dumb you sound… You don’t like the south music then don’t buy it.. don’t listen to it.. I don’t like Bill OReilly however I just keep fox news off my TV.. and life goes on.. Why take it so personal? Nobody is forcing this shit on your lames.. If your wake up you would realize that the fans control the way hip hop is going.. If the south is big right now then that’s just the way it is..
As far as you Lyric critics.. Look at fabolous.. He had a crazy flow and made words rhyme together so well but then he came with the simple shit with neyo on “Make me better” and everybody loved it.. YOU don’t have to rap sick lyrics these days.. Its a different time.. Swagger is in.. Imagery is in.. Producers are the new rappers.. and some fans are stuck in a time warp…
U guys remind me of my mother when I used to listen to Luke or Rob base back in the day.. She kept saying Sugar hill was the joint but what I was listening to was garbage. Sounds like what some of you are doing.. Cant let go of the good ole days…Let the kids have their music and fall into your Zone.. You are not forced to listen.. Just my 2 cents
Yo whatever, what some people fail to relize is that black people are not supporting each other any more especially when it comes to music, movies etc. who do you think is buying this garbage? It’s not black people, you know it’s them white boys in the suburbs that sucking up all this shit. real hip hop stopped being relevant when black people stopped supporting it, we took the easy and cheap way out download or bootleg, how many of you posters on here remember the last time you actually paid for an album before Limewire, Morpheus and all that othe shit, now it’s not just the singles you can download but the albums to on websites like mixtape torrent etc. In my opinion as long as we have these programs that make everything easily asseible the quality of evrything in the industry will just decline even further.
Smh i don’t remember the last time i watched a real hood gutter true life African American movie that actually had a message, it’s the same way with the music, but hey at least we have the underground and the oldschool to look to, cause that’s what i listen to now a days. Im Out.
Peace in the Middle East LOL!
on my way to work i was bumpin EPMD so what cha saying and
Beestie boys Paul Revere.. man Hip hop is beautiful… we came a long way.. you gotta love it
yea you rite nyc birthplace, womb but the west coast ganstered your precious child raised it , and now the south is taking your precious child and making money with it. there aint one artist in new york with any buzz rite now cuz yall aint making nothing that appeal to any fan base…the gurls dont like em, the east coast is done as far as this rap shit is concerned yall dont know how to stick together anymore aint no love in the heart of your city every camp in NY dont fuck with the next camp and hates on everybody elses movement too many old emcees, too many egos, no love for music
Damn I kinda feel #33 on that one, and who wants to here niggas’s taling bout killing other nigga’s family’s babies moms and all that shit, all that kinda music is doing is promoting vilolece, got nigga’s thinking it’s cool to thearten little kids and old people and beat up on women,that some gay shit.
Ah man David banner keep tellin the truth, he’s a great mafucking role model
yo fuck dat ni99a and da south…it aint bout hatin dem ni99as..dem ni99as jus cant rap simple and plain…includin his bum ass jus look at da facts no ni99a from da south is consider one of da best rappers ever only ni99a i could think of is scarface…shit new york still run da rap game if u think bout it cause we on the executive branches and shit jay z president of def jam so we jus managing these ni99as…no disrespect to da south but learn how to rap and learn to luv music not money (da first thing he mentioned in da interview)
Southern Chick with Real Logik and Chi cities saviour are two of the only people on this site with some good sense. You make me feel better about my young black youth. Keep it up.
F*CK ALL YOU MOTHERF*CKERS WHO DON’T AGREE WITH ME.
HAHA!
thats wassup corporate chick
KillaCalifornia213.. please get a life… Link below

^^^^ you crazy!
LMBAO
“KillaCalifornia213 aint no thug. Than nigga need a hug.” -Yukmouth
Fucking Internet Gangsta. lol. Do something productive wit ur life besides sending blog messages all day 24/7. Damn every topic on here you make a comment about it. Atleast twice. Get off before you get carpal tunnel on some shit.
no.30 shut yo lil wayne homo loving ass up and stick that dick bac in yo mouth.. what u said is totally not what i said stfu like u kno what real music is… go listen to ur fuckin aye bay bay shit nigga the south music minus luda, scarface(best southern artist of all time), getto boys, etc. is alll fuckin jokes its not hip hop, its rap there no more such things as mc’s these days its all lazy ass rappers.. lil wayne spits shit that dont make sense and all his songs have no point to it if thats the best rapper alive then u kno raps in a real bad position. Good music when all peoples who like south east west midwest shit to all like it.. even a little they dont have to totally like it but they gotta respect it so when u hear all these fuckin shop boys or huey or i dunt even kno the fuckin names no more all the young and lil bergs or w.e thats not good music.. thats not even consdiered rap honestly its nursery rhymes
85 percent of East and West coast lyrics is shit too. They just ain’t selling. The south is getting folks hype, which is cool. It’s not meant to change your life. All music isn’t meant for that purpose. That’s a lot better than hearing fake thugs talk about slangin they didn’t do.
I respect the south, because they have madd diversity. Every little area has a different sound. You have some rappers more on the conscious tip and some more on the party tip. You have some of the greatest rappers out right now and some who probably can’t read at a 10th grade level. However, they have a hard hustle, and you have to respect that.
WORD!!!
Banner shut the hell up gorilla looking fuck! South is slow is fuck ludacris seem the only one that make sense in his rhymes. I dont know what the hell rest of these south rapper are saying. Banner you must need some money and attention. You have not done a good beat since what T.i. rubberband man? Come on!
Dude is tellin the truth in general but to act like every artist from new york never put a southern mc on his track or had some kind of workin relationship with them is extreme.
@7 So true… garbage mc’s reside everywhere!
@8… Good point!
@ 20 i can understand you’re point better stated as such.
@ 30 I can rock wit! “Nobody is forcing this shit on your lames.. If your wake up you would realize that the fans control the way hip hop is going..” can’t rock wit that though. the business controls the business, which is why we need to boycott the majors until they give us what we want!
@ 31 good point (i think part of that issue is that dudes are makin music strictly for the money now, when back in the days kats had somethin they really wanted to get out there!)
@ 43 ..co-sign
P.s. dave banner got somethin of substance to say too!
he has a point.
but he didn’t say anything about new york..he was implying it to everybody that is hatin on the south.
realtalk asked him a question..what do you want him to do not answer..he had to speak his mind. Just like how he wanted to do a joint with dre..and i think dre didn’t get back to him about it.
i agree with 44..
no matter what garbage you hear from the south..they do have a different unique style..and i can respect it because it’s alot different from westcoast or east and more variety.
Snoop is always saying he is going to bring the west back..him and gamebrought it back when there last albums came out..few monthes later everybody forgot about the west too.
Same with lil easy e…somebody has to get the guy on a hook or somehting lol
change that… I co-sign 44! eaither i’m tired as hell or there’s some funny business…lol!
Everybody falls right into the media blame game. Before they played our shit on the radio we found a way to hear the music we wanted to hear. How come KRS new shit got no love? What happened?
UMMMMMMMMMMM Wack Ny Niggas need South Help to be hot…..but fuck all dat…when niggas get money like Jay and 50 and Master P then they can say they are truly hot even in this NEW industry Ya favorite rapper aint got no 100 mil prolly…so furthermore he’s not the best no Buddens,Banner,Luda,TI,Wayne,Wayne’s Ghostwriter,Juelz,Jim Jones…none of them.
Btw no club musik and the south fuckin SUCKZZZZZZZ
David Banner is garbage. Im sure he has beef with the Ying Yang twins for him biteing that whisper shit.
I don’t know, sounds to me like he’s making a lot of sense. Not sure why they’re so many people on this site that can’t see that. You might not like what he’s saying, but what he’s saying is indeed the truth.
Try looking at it this way.. He’s saying that if we don’t like what they’re doing in the south, then do something about it. I mean, a hit record is a hit record, no matter where it comes from. Back when NY was stayin’ makin’ hit records, cats from every region bumped it. It’s possible for us to do that again, and guess what, everyone will bump it… again.
I am 32 and was raised on hip hop but what all of you fail to realize is that all of this is merely evolution. It had to come around. Technology is what drives any industry; the music industry included. Fifteen years ago it cost way more money to make a record and that made the ability exclusive to only larger metropolitan areas i.e. NY, Philly. Now that we have Pro Tools 8 tracks for free and other various bootlegged programs which allow a person to create and record a whole album for as little as $2500 the ability has spread to all areas of the country. The south is a large region which makes up a great deal of the country. We listened to east coast hip hop for so long cause that’s all we had. Now I get to hear kuntry mufuggas tawlkin da way I tawlk wit my cuntri twang and all dat. Know whut um tawlkin bout shawt? I agree my taste is a little more advanced than most of my country brethren can satisfy, and New York dudes outside of Nas and Ghost make me sick too with all that “I’ll shoot you” shit. I’ve seen many a new yorker get his ass beat in SC while visiting his or her Grandparents ;)! I just simply say fuck all that hip hop shit and listen to Carl Thomas!!! also check the studio where I work
http://www.mix19recordingstudio.com
Man I come to these websites that are so called hip hop sites, and when I read the articles they always talking about how we need to stop promoting the hate in hip hop… or how we need to start focusing on keeping hip hop alive…..but then they have lead articles on artist who they consider not hip hop…. well if a muthfukka not hip hop why the hell is he being interviewed?? if so called southern rap is killing hip hop why are you playing it on the media sections of ya site??? if new york hip hop is all that, why don’t you big up artist like blackmoon, rakim, gangstarr, and the Wu??? instead you take artist who are from new york but rhyme over southern and westcoast tracks…..
I don’t want you to think I am taking anyones side …but truth is like David banner said “do you” seriously, we all know hip hop started in new york..but rap started in the south…. check ya facts… louis armstrong, cab calloway, fats dominoe. lil richard…. they where the real pioneers of placing rhythmic words to music….. I am sure someone gone for the sake of being a dick is gone jump in and hate, to be funny or to interfere with the real message i am trying to get out… so I want to respond to them before hand…. I am not here to entertain ya dumb ass….
But the matter is why don’t you mad bloggers and internet thugs wake up and realize…talking about the south, the west, and the mid west…..only proves what David Banner stated… Why the fuck is a grown man worried about who making money….or music…for that matter????
Also bring back real new york rap, we need more Joel ortiz’s, more Rakim’s, real fukkin mew york sounding music….that was when yall was hot!!!!! until these websites promote that shit, shut the fuck up!!!!!!!
and I am from the westcoast and love all music…..now what!!!!!!!!!!
Fuck you d-banner, ya shit is wack to. You just keep rappin for puss …lol…lol… You know how it is with you ugly dudes, no money, no sex, no chicks, no nothing …lol…lol… Learn how to talk b4 you make a song mother fu@ker. Do you any other word other then Nigga????? That’s the only word I heard you use…… Take some of that money and by a brain…..
Any Nigga got a Problem The sssssOOOuuutttthhhh or My Big Homie D.Banner Fuck You BITCH,I Bet you want come to Mississippi talkin that shit Cause These Niggaz down here will run yo ass up out this Bitch! Believe that!
And if the South Sucks ask yo Mamma, what she do? You Sluts
Who cares about Dave Banner anyway! I’ve listened to alot of his wor and he overrtaed. I mean Play was trash and the album was okay but Banner can go and suck Pimp C’s dick for all I care. He don’t even really have that many hit records. And he talking like New Yorkers signed a contract or something to do some work. You got your money what’s your problem. If ya’ll didn’t even offer to do work with New York artists, we probabaly would be talking about a Talib Kweli album going platinum right now. Today hit records are trash and Dave Banner is a perfect example of southern black trash. Aint no one scared of nobody in the south up here in New York. I hav respect for people like Ludacris who defend the south with class and dignity. But niggaz like Banner is the reason why black people got a bad rap of disrespecting each other. Aint no one even said nothing bad about southern music no way. Hello! If you’ve been to New York the past 2 years at least you know that that’s all we play up here. If we hated ya’ll we would play some old school classics instead of the up to date new school southern music. Quit Hatin The East man. Quit Hatin the Muthafucking East cuz we more than just New York up here nigga. We got Jersy, Philly, Baltimore and Boston up here too. Look out for Boston ya’ll. It’s crazy up there right now. I would love to see a place like Boston just teach these southern dudes how to do this hip hop. I love New York but aint nobody gonna listen to us. All we have to do is support or region like we used to do and we gonna be straight. East Coast stand up!
the best rapper from the south imo is K-Rino-it’s all about the lyrics foreal.if any rapper should defend the south from critics and other emcee’s it should be this man.

I WAS GOING TO SCHOOL FOR A YEAR IN NYC, I WAS STAYING IN HARLEM, RIGHT THERE ON SUGAR HILL 146 AND ST.NICHOLAS. WHEN I WOULD GO TO PARTIES IN THE POLO GROUNDS OR GRANT PROJECTS ON CASTLE HILL IN THE BRONX ALL I WOULD HERE WAS SOME DOWN SOUTH SHIT: BOOSIE, T.I., ANDRE 3000, GUCCI, RICK ROSS, PLIES, ALL MY DOWN SOUTH FOLK. AND THEM NYC BROADS LOVE COUNTRY NIGGAZ. I FUCKS WITH SOME NEW YORK SHIT ,BUT WHO GETS WORSE THAN 40 CAL, LOADED LUX, MAX B AND MIMS? WE KEEPING HIP HOP ALIVE RIGHT NOW, THE ONLY NIGGAZ HOLDING DOWN NEW YORK ARE THE VETERANS.
SO ALL YOU FUCK NIGGAZ NEED TO STOP HATIN’ AND GET WIT THE FUCKIN’ PROGRAM.
Bottom line is New York music > south music
