I think you may be a bigger fan of Outkast and UGK than I am which would explain why this video could hold such an important place in what you see as a "Swan Song" of Southern rap or rap period. This very good song is just that...a VERY GOOD SONG. It shines next to all the rest of the trash that is out and while it is worth celebrating, it is also sad that we should have to rave about a good rap song because it means that they are so rare now. Even worse is the fact that it will change nothing in the culture. In this age of A.D.D. and Zshare the music is bound to suffer so our(hip hop fans) best bet is to remember, seek out, and inform one another of good music word of mouth style (circa 1994) because if it don't sell...it will not be broadcast. While I can see some of what you mean about the Guns N Roses idea; for that to be true, this song would have been out awhile ago when the tides were only turning not already turned as they are with rap now.

Thought provoking article though...Like rap used to be.

LAST (first is played out)
