Don't even come in this thread saying that Long Island is part of Queens

I would never say no blasphemous shyt like that





















I'd say it the correct way: Queens is a part of Long Island

Not even gonna lie, BDP bodied Queens on that. I have nothing else to say.. I didn't hear it until I was old enough to start appreciating rap culture for what it was but when I did first heard it in the 90s, still had me

If it makes you feel any better, the bronx is connected to mainland USA. At least you guys are on a island

Nikkas should have to cross water to get to any part of NYC

FACTSSSS... I cant with these new style rapper these days- all that fake profiling and fronting; not saying anything. I don't even try to keep up with it unless they have some type of lyrical content or started off humble (like don q, jay critch, ) but those other flamboyant, need to be seen, everything for a gimmick rappers- pass. Pure nostalgia era rap is my go to- dipset, mobb deep, nas, you know people with actual talent, creativity and innovativeness. Even the female rappers back then were different - it's lil kim all day over nikki, cardi.

exactly, that's it, that's the ONLY way imo - individual personality. that's the term right there.
I can't respect followers or people wired to copy/act a way that's not true to themselves to fit a trend. it's crazy rn. smh.

I've lived in Brooklyn, Manhattan, and Staten Island and I'd have to go with Manhattan.

Crown Heights Brooklyn is about as authentic of an NYC experience as you're going to get (I lived one block away from Utica Ave) but Brooklyn in general is too big, and it's a hassle to leave the neighborhood when you have to go somewhere. Also, the nightlife ain't really nothing past midnight. Brooklyn has a lot of creative types though. A lot of people that you meet there are lowkey really skilled.

Staten Island is obviously very isolated and doesn't have much to do outside of family life and drugs. There's some cool dudes over there, but it's really just hood near the ferry and suburban everywhere else. It's great for having a base away from the city where you can just chill and be next to the water. Also, the panorama view from Victory Blvd is the best in NYC.

Manhattan wins because it's NYC all of the time. You never have to leave the island because everything is within walking distance and there's always something going on. This is ideal because you save hours of your day from having to commute to any of the outer boroughs and can get things popping right after work. Plus the night doesn't end, it just transforms into the morning, which is cool because you don't have to go anywhere. Another thing that Manhattan has going for it are the kinds of people that you meet. While Brooklyn has the cool kids, Manhattan has the rich kids. And that tradeoff is worth it if you want to keep pace with your ambitions. The city life in general is good towards that end.

Make people want to move to Manhattan brehs

too much NIMBYISM in staten island for that
