TROLL IS LIFE
The people who are considered the GOATs are all from the streets 
Are rappers with hood/poverty backgrounds better than those who aren't from the "hood struggle"?

definitely, rappers that come from the hood have most likely gone through more than someone from the suburbs/ someone who comes from money
Everyone is from a struggle
Yep.
I would say so
Honestly, it gives them cliche' rap subjects and verbiage that they can always lean on and craft songs around

Ok
Hood rappers can always lean on
Getting it from the mud
Being the realest nikka ever
Trap tales
Draco tales
It's so easy... this is a hit and we know nothing about him other than he a hood nikka just from the song content
Depends on what counts as poverty backgrounds.
For one - until recently if you weren't from/close to a major city you couldn't blow - wouldn't have the network around you to succeed unless you moved. Could be from a mudhut in SC.
I actually think being from the hood but having certainly things right like a good family was an advantage. Might be a bit chicken and the egg but a lot of top MC's were honour-roll students. Anyone can be smart but Biggie's crystal clear diction in raps I attribute to having an educated English teacher for a mother. Pac as well, being raised around Panthers and going to performing arts school gave him a unique education and perspective.

it usually gives them more soul but there are plenty of rappers not from the hood that are great...or ones that are from the hood but werent really living the street life.
He sill rapped from a gansta perspectiveWhat wasstruggle? Not making it to an acting audition on time?
Doesn't matter if he was really about it
