REMASTERED IN HD! Music video by Ludacris performing Southern Hospitality. (C) 2000 The Island Def Jam Music Group #Ludacris #SouthernHospitality #Remastered
The southern movement in hip hop was something special in the early 2000s they knocked down the wall and came through hard unapologetically country, and this coming from a New York City guy.
@@giorgiopereira6742 Not really. This new generation of music just sucks period. My generation still liked classic rappers and other music before our generation, and rappers from my generation are still being praised, BIGGIE, PAC etc. Majority people will agree that rap and just music in general nowadays is just trash
I turned 21 when this song came out. And this song was in every club, bar, lounge you couldn't escape it. Luda was one of the most consistent rappers of the 2000s
@@tkghhhhh Millennial here. Word of Mouf was my first personal purchase of anything. I was 10. He is one of the best rappers of all time. But isnt that what French Gaming is saying as well?
Underrated is like saying he doesn't get the recognition he deserves. But that's to millennials..newer gen. To us 80s babies..we have him all his props. We bumped the fuck outta these songs. Couldn't go anywhere without hearing luda. East to west coast. Back when west coast would be late on east coast music and east would be late on west music
I met a girl in school that had just arrived in NY from ATL. At first , we did not like each other and had a serious cultural clash, but after a fight (HS days), we got to know one another better in detention 🤣. One day, I went over to her place to hang out, and she played this video for me; that was the day we became best friends 😍 I miss these days!
Another classic from Luda, I miss the old Luda with braids. Man this song brings back good memories, I'm still getting this time machine ready, your more than welcome to come. 🕑💺
I’m 22 now, and growing up as a kid in the south I remember if someone was in a heated argument, you could hear some old head saying “y’all better throw them bows”, mann good times, it was some of the last few yrs niggas fr honored fighting😂🤧
WHat I love about Atlanta and the artists down there is they all stick together like a family compared to NYC where we battle each other based on what borough you from. ATL know how to do it.
Futuristic ass beat right here!!! Pharrell, Missy, Timbaland, Darkchild & Swizzy were the gatekeepers of anything and everything addictive on the soundboard and this production was a HOT one! Man this shit goes hard 19 years later
@@cw2022Organized noise, Trackmasters, Rodney Jerkins, Babyface, R. Kelly, Jermaine Dupri, Mannie Fresh, Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis, Pharrell, Kanye, Dr Dre, Dre Harrell Beats By Pound, all them niggas is some genius produers
I remember the first time ludacris came out , I was hooked. He brought character to the rap game, He was very different from other rappers at the time. He was so far ahead of time.

LBC-Nine21 Other. I never liked Luda, but recently I realized how much of an underrated rapper he is. I came here checking out a bunch of his music that I missed out on. I feel like I heard this song before though. It sounds vaguely familiar.
Can we just take a moment to appreciate that he spent the extra money to film this on a high quality camera. So many videos on TH-cam from even ten years ago look like they were filmed with a potato.
Junior year of college.......... was played in every club and every house party... non stop.... nobody got tire of it.... still haven't. Hahahaha. Please take me back.... please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So you saying he shouldn't be very musically talented?He also made snoop doggs "drop it like it's hot"beat that's also 1 of the greatest beats of all time
It is hard to explain what this video gives you as a feeling. I used to be a little Russian boy when this song released and it gave me a strong fell that I can go through all these afro-american struggles and be strong. The beat, music and the most important video makes me strong and happiest that I ever been. Sorry for English I hope everybody could understand what I meant.
I swear Pharrell and co. has been behind so much great music for such a loooooong time, it's such a treat to go back and see why you loved an old song so timelessly
iwatch videos Eminem repeated 9th grade three times and dropped out and he’s one of the greatest rappers ever 😒 Education means JACK SHIT NOTHING AT ALL
Back in 2001... My family didn't have cable. We finally got it back on. I turned to BET and watched this video for the first time. Me and my siblings went crazy. Lol #Memories
as I said 4 years ago and I'll say forever. This beat right here... My God. Pharrell and Chad. Those flutes, the steal drums.... only this version.... this shit will forever knock... The greatest production duo of all time .What I wouldn't give to see this being created in the studio
Bro, GREAT COMMENT. The studio had probably set on fire when they made half the beat. had to finish the other half somewhere else. I could only imagine
This was when Hip Hop was black! This was when Hip Hop was King! This was when Hip hop lock down radio station,the club,television STATION,And The WORLD!!!!!!
TheRealist 811 he not only was one of the hottest, he was the hottest and is up there in the GOAT podium with Biggie and 2pac. And I’m fucking sure had it happened when those 2 were in the game, some people would say he’s the GOAT instead of saying he’s one of the GOAT. Btw back in the day the hottest rapper that wasn’t Eminem was 50 Cent and M and Dr. Dre were pretty much the ones that turned him from a hard battler that was loosing to Ja, Murder Inc and the Supreme clique to the #1 in the game (save for Eminem himself) until Lil Wayne, Whiz Khalifa and Snoop were taking over again, to later give the room to Drake, Kanye (who was already relevant) and the talentless bunch of SoundCloud mumblerappers
I grew up watching this video everyday. Why is it so hard to find the full version of this video? The intro is the hardest part of this song and I vividly remember the video matching the build up to where this video starts.
Much respect to Luda. Started off as a radio host and rapper, then became a street racer, computer hacker, and astronaut. That is very impressive.
lmfao
A computer hacker???
@@marlodambrosio6050 yes, of course. You didn't think they'd leave a job like that to a woman, did you?
Looooooooooool

The Neptunes slaughtered this beat. Got damn!
So did childish gambino
Who cAres abt him
Luke Rider who gives a shit
jkolaWOLE I do.
And so do a couple other million people who actually understand his level of deepness.
Luke Rider true that
Some songs will never stop banging and this right here is still fire 🔥 Pharrel was knocking out slaps
Is there a harder neptunes beat? I don't think so.

The southern movement in hip hop was something special in the early 2000s they knocked down the wall and came through hard unapologetically country, and this coming from a New York City guy.
After the sad passing of DMX, we must protect our veteran rappers at all costs. Luda is definitely one of them!
That's right.
Much love , frm so.cal

Luda, Nelly, Hov, Tip, Scarface, Jeezy...gotta save them them because they were once the future like how Drake, Meg, DaBaby and LilBaby are now...
