    sigh Here we go. Just know I love Atl music the most after Toronto/Ontario.

    All these artists are either from Toronto, it’s general area - or it’s province of Ontario (equivalent of a “state” in Canada):

    Top-tier: Drake, Weeknd, Justin Bieber, Nav, Tory Lanez, PND, Roy Woods, Night Lovell, Belly.

    New school: KILLY, Pressa, NorthSideBenji, Lil Berete, Duvy, Puffy L’z.

    ATL/Florida artists the ones I like most from the US.

    I fw Drake but his legacy in Toronto is taking "The 6" from Jimmy Johnson cuz he ain't wanna sign to OVO, shoehorning it for years and getting Torontonians interested in a subgenre of R&B

    I get it but detroit rap is the definition of "ur scaring the hoes". Its really good but it could never be the new Atlanta. No woman going to the club to shake ass to royce the 5'9 and rio da yung og. They goin for YSL & the others. Memphis is a better argument.

    Now when Detroit producers start incorporating house/techno into their tracks? Thats gonna be a whole different convo.

    You must not have known Aktivated was a Detroit song

    it’s about as appropriate to lump Royce in with that group as it is to lump Ludacris in with Migos, Thug & Future

    doesn't have the mainstream appeal yet. the style is very niche and samey
