    Yeah, but Jay-Z had to resuscitate UGK first.

    Kool G Rap

    Really? I don't think that UGK track resuscitated him anymore than Letter P with Saigon, or the exposure from The Roots, maybe it's just where you live, but he's been doing a bunch of (admittedly not particularly good) stuff on mixtapes and things for a while...

    This is absurd--UGK exposed them to far more people than the Roots or Saigon could. I live in New York and have never even heard whatever track any of those artists did with Saigon.

    I wasn't debating who exposed G Rap to more people, i'm just saying that it wasn't a case of him being resuscitated as he was still doing his thing, albeit not exactly making big moves, as opposed to having fallen off the radar completely...

    Dude, he was off the radar. Before UGK, his biggest look of the past decade was as Karinne Steffans' babydaddy.
