Like what ny rapper really poppin right now that didn’t get their sound from the south or england?
2007-2009
50 Cent making every other NY heavyweight uncool right before Kanye’s style of music vs. his made him uncool
+
Max B/Stacks Bundle going to prison/dying
+
Juelz not capitalizing on the ICFMF moment and subsequently getting raided and thus all of a sudden NY is without a new star for 5 years from like Chicken Noodle Soup/Mims to A$AP Mob coming out and when they do they’re southern influenced and here we are
Rap wouldn’t exist without New York
We know this.
West Coast and Southern rap both doing better rn tho
Ja Rule vs. 50 Cent
also shoutout to the fed Ebro for not giving NY talent shine when we needed it the most.
You right OP. But it should be acknowledged that NY has produced the best modern underground (somewhat) rappers
Griselda
Roc Marci
Ka
billy woods
