  • In the early 2000s, the music industry was seeing a pivotal shift in coastal dominance. Throughout that era the south rose up and staked their claim once and for all and like Andre 3000 said, “the south got something to say”. To me southern hip hop has always been needed in the game because of the texture and cultural soul it provides to and for more than just African Americans. The south still represented the remanence of the trials black people faced generations ago, and displayed that through dialect, instruments, dress code, and even the taste in things like cars and medication Around that time one city in particular were making a noticeable mark. Houston. Lil Flip was right in the mix of that and looking like he had what it took to even translate to future hip hop climates. He’s released 17 studio albums in 20 years in the game, which has to be a record in itself, but after the first 3 or 4, Lil Flip was almost as they say irrelevant. Popping up here and there, mainly for run ins with the law or a feature or two. A far cry from where many saw the braided southern MC with a flow that was catchy and easy to sing along with. What happened to Lil Flip? How’d he go from FREESTYLE KING to not mention at all in 2021? Here are 3 reasons his growth was stunted.

      Maybe in the top 100 but him Beefing with T.I. stunted his growth. He should have stayed in his lane & kept making hits. He got too consumed with beefing with Tip & niggas picked sides and switched on him! T.I. was too plugged with higher ups & major industry guys & the people he affiliated with wasn't gon hop on a song with Flip over Tip. I still fuck with Flip till this day!!

    I just wanna know what really happened between him and TIP. Nore tried to get it outta Flip on an episode on Drink Champs, but when Nore asked Flip about the situation Flip responded "I plead the Flip". Whatever happened had to be VERY serious. I do know TIP got ruffed up by Flip's boys trying to be hard by going down to Texas and being a dumbass.

    Who ever did this video either is not from Texas 🤠or is from ATL. Flip was making $$$ way before his 1st 3 albums. He was doing good Mix tapes before, during, and after his deal with Colombia. That's why he had all the crazy jewelry before the major deal. Rappers right now took his style from 20 yrs ago? Grills, double cup, diamond glasses, braids, Fresh Southern custom colorful clothes, jewelry, freestyles.
    What REALLY stunted his growth In the MEDIA as a Rapper to the public view if anything #1 Was that he was from Texas 🤠 and also from Houston🥛🌌🔩. you're kind of spoiled as a Rapper if you're successful in Texas. if you are independent and sell a couple of hundred thousand albums, you're a millionaire. Plus the shows apart. So you're free to do what you want when you want, which is why they call themselves the BOSS in Texas, Rick Ross took that from us when he was out here and learned the game.
    Theyre not use to kissing major labels @$$ to stay in the game, or executives, or CEO's, or have to wait for the label to get permission when they can make music. They have complete creative control. They wanted to control him in the wrong way and even though he was with Colombia they hardly ever helped him promote his music and some how still went platinum. the machine wasn't helping him and Flip still was on top magically which is applauded. the Texas independent mindstate helped him through life. So it was either Struggle with the hassels of a Mojor, or get around the samething $$$ independent??? Texas Mix tape game gives you that option.
    #2 T.I. beef. T.I. was struggling and copying Flip in the business. and wanted to be in the Game over remix, but Flip already finished the song. Flip said Scarface was the King of the South to him. Then T.I. got mad. And wanted to make everyone hate Flip. He made up lies that Flip dissed him and had footage but it never came out till this day. B.S.😂! T.I. was trolling Flip but no 1 cared because tip was a gold artist. People from Houston know T.I. got beat up in Clover Land 🍀 and ran. But T.I. fooled the rest of the world and They fell for it. The original 6ix9ine 🌈.
    #3 The Haters! Flip was hot 🔥and on Fire. Dj Screw 🔩🌌 Crowned him as the young 👑 Freestyle King, and the O.G.'s of S.U.C. felt resentment towards him. A lot of Houston Rappers turned on him and sided with T.I. during the beef out of jealousy do to his talent. Even a lot of people from Houston, and they all knew T.I. got Smacked. Including the traitor scarface. T.I. Wasn't trying to look for Flip he was hiding behind Lil 3rd and his security in hopes to make them 2 fight. Which didn't go as he planned. Then Tipster looked like a BIG LAME saying he beat up Flip🤣! T.I.'s Machine backed him up with the lies and his machines' connections forced artist to side with the Tipster.
    His Album I need mine had a lot of Artist featured but his record label leaked his album.
    reason #4 Being a Hussler! Flip like a lot of Texas rappers just don't do 1 thing. They all do a lot of businesses. So it takes some time off his music. Flip was the 1st artist that sold $3 million In ringtones alone with "I need mine" an album that again was leaked and not promoted. He also is into Tech apps, Art, has jewelry stores, tattoo shops, paints, etc.
    #4 The illuminati. A lot of Artist or their machine sell their soul to have $$$ and fame. And there's a big rumor that T.I. And a lot of rappers did that to stay in the buisness. That's why T.I. magically keeps getting out of jail even though he's a felon, has a connection to Hollywood, went from 0 to 100 in his career, did a snitch commercial and still succeeded in the culture. They tryed to get Flip out the way since he was an enemy and Flip, And forever Stained T.I.'s name as a snitch🌈🐀. Hes the 1st one that exposed him to the light. there's a spiritual battle in the Entertainment business that will test your morals, code, self worth, and your faith in GOD. They say the machine that helped T.I. is the same 1 that got him in this mess with the females.
    But Flip's talent kept him alive and they couldn't cut his bread because of how God test a Texas 🤠 rapper in the independent lifestyle and the Hustle mentality he develops without selling out.
