Redman (born Reggie Noble on April 17, 1970 in Newark, New Jersey)

With the exception of Bones Thugs N Harmony...

I think some of yall are doing it wrong. this isn't supposed to be about cats that rep one city but were originally from somewhere else. I think it's more about cats that sound like they're from another region, or at least they don't sound like the 'typical' rapper from their region

 

[filial_piety]

Gangstarr...guru and premo...

Thought they were both fron NYC...

Found out guru was from Boston and preme from Texas
