I think in recent times that the east coast has taken, or to put it in better prospective, the east coast has predominantly the best rap albums coming out, and other than for LIL WAYNE'S movement, the southern rappers ain't selling like before.
I could remember back like 4 years ago, the south took over the dominance of the rap game from the east, and they ran with it. During that era, you had rappers like T.I blowing to full bloom, CHAMILIONAIRE, PAUL WALL, and a lot of bubble gum rappers i can't really remember their names. To show you how irrelevant their short lived music was, i can't even remember half their names.
I think the east is getting hold of the rap game right now, and it is looking good. When someone as noncommercial as JADAKISS can sell more copies than more than half the southern rappers out, then you know it is looking good. Then you have Jay-Z is still selling crazy numbers as we type. I think that is a good look at the rap game right now.
