Does Britney Spears count? She's gotta be tier 2 at least, maybe tier 1. What about Master P and No Limit?

Yes. Zebra is the only New Orleans-based rock band that still gets regular plays on FM radio.



what song(s)?

look i'm not saying DRR is the best band ever, but I think with a 30 year career, that's pretty good.

I would bump Dash up a tier and add the Iguanas at tier 4.

Shorty is well on his way to being Tier One, but right now he simply doesn't stack up to the others. That's not an insult either. Tier One is some serious heavyweights not just in the NOLA scene, but on national and even worldly levels.

Soulja Slim, Mystikal and Mia X need to be on the list. Slim needs to be tier 1

I'll argue that Rebirth needs to be tier 1

1. They are most peoples first thought when you think Brass Bands

2. Grammy Award winning Rebirth

3. Over 30 years of music in New Orleans

4. Have their own beer

Where is Ellipsis?!?

Also, who is going to see the Tribe for some back-cracking funk tonight at Tip's? I'm gonna start setting up in the Rouses parking lot around 7 I think.
