How the fukk do you think that cities like New York and Philadelphia got such large black populations?
Do you think that blacks just always lived there?

In the 1980s and '90s, New York's Eddie Plein started the trend, drilling gold in the mouths of Big Daddy Kane and Flavor Flav, and later Outkast, Ludacris, and Lil Jon (after moving to Atlanta). A few years passed before Nelly hopped on "Grillz," and that's when things went...awry: the Wikipedia entry for "Grill (Jewelry)" lists such diamond-toothed aficionados as Marilyn Manson, Travis Barker, "members of the metal band Avenged Sevenfold," and Ryan Lochte.

Y'all have so much to brag about and be proud of
I swear i'll visit one day
this post made me wish I was from NYNY started rap period the regional disrespect it gets on here is from some looser ass clowns who had to wait years for their cities to gain relevancy so they could spew hatred born from envy at NY. At the end of the day no one has surpassed NY in terms of classics, impact in the game and legendary MC's. This hoe ass NY hatred needs to die.
They were the grimiest hardest and realest representers of the essence of rap everyone else had to mold themselves after then got brave n cocky now you get disrespect that is just years of pent up jealousy. The grills the flossing the styles the lingo the aura of gutta elegance is all from NY.
Them other nikkaz gave u crayola colored ice and fake/ off brand clothing for years let's not pretend like the rest of em ain't just catch up but less than a decade ago...
Yes shots fired feel something bout it

Failure is not a option
You're continually moving the goal posts breh.... Jack Johnson had gold teeth.... in the 1800's.
even if you're to constrain it to hip hop, the South still holds that claim...cause they were already wearing slugs as a normal thing.... where do you think these New Yorkers came from?
Isn't the OP talking about fronts(grills) not gold teeth.
Nikkas bringing up slaves and 85 year old grandmothers all type of dumb shyt.
@megatronbomb why stop at jack johnsony'all argue about the dumbest shyt to try and get plat threads, the thread says grills yet nikkas are bringing up when underground railroads members had permanent gold teeth

The insertion of gems into teeth has long predated hip hop culture, with rich Mayans drilling pieces of jade into their teeth.[9] Hip hop artists began wearing grills in the early 1980s;[3] New Yorker Eddie Plein, owner of Eddie's Gold Teeth, is often credited with starting the trend.[3][10] Plein made gold caps for Flavor Flav, and then outfitted New York rappers including Big Daddy Kane and Kool G. Rap.[3][10] He later moved to Atlanta, where he designed ever-more-elaborate grills for rappers likeOutKast, Goodie Mob, Ludacris, and Lil Jon.[3][10] Other writers have cited Slick Rickas an important early contributor to the popularity of grills.[5][6]
Grills remained popular in the Southern U.S., especially in Houston or Memphis, even as they rose and fell from popularity elsewhere,[5] and the rise of Dirty Southrappers in the 2000s spurred a nationwide grill trend.[3] During this time, grills frequently appeared in hip hop music, most notably in the 2005 number one single "Grillz," by Nelly, Paul Wall, Big Gipp, and Ali, and in other Paul Wall songs.[8] Wall is known for his grill business as well as his rapping; his clients include Kanye Westand Cam'ron.[8]
