LUDA!!!



Ludacris doesn't get nearly the amount of props he deserves as an artist. No Top 5 Mentions. No "Hot List" placements. I mean, I'm sure the man ain't complaining, because really, he doesn't have to sell another record in his life...but still.

Anyways, today it was announced that Luda will be getting inducted into the Georgia Music Hall of Fame. Surprisingly (well, not really), Luda is the first rapper to be inducted into the Hall, unless you want to count Jermaine Dupri as a rapper.

As I was posting this though, I saw that they don't have Luda's name on the actual website as an inductee. I hope this doesn't mean we're gonna see some Tom Foolery in the future...Anyways, congratulations are (and have been) in order. Sometimes I swear Luda is like the South's Busta Rhymes. You know, that consistently dope rapper that's known all over the world, but doesn't really get the regional adulation they truly deserve.

Oh yeah, congrats are in order to Keith Sweat for being inducted as well.

And people wonder why music has become so shitty...Do you realize how long it took for Ray Charles to get inducted...Sam Cooke...man these are legends!! Name 1 song Ludacris album that you still listen to...really..c'mon G..i give Ludacris props for not being extra wack like the rest of ATL rappers...that's about it...but he has had his wack moments too..don't get it twisted...if they would've waited another 20 years then I wouldn't have a problem..but to parade this dude around like he truly deserves this award is a violation. ray charles rolled over in his grave when they sampled 'Georgia'....sorry as niggas....
