Rappers Who Own A City They Aren't From

[HIGHQuality]

I'm from Detroit, and it's always crazy when Jeezy comes here. He might as well be a Detroit nikka. This place loves him, and treats him like he would probably be treated in Atlanta. I think it might be because of the shared sensibilities of grime and stunting that both have.

Can you guys name any more examples? shyt always intrigued me.

It wouldn't be because he was repping BMF so hard?

I'm only asking because I'm not from there, don't have people there and I'm not going to pretend like I know.

I just figured that although BMF is associated in the public eye more with Atlanta, Detroit is Detroit.

Name a Rapper from Detroit that gets love here like he does? None of these wack ass street level nikkas nobody knows, black people in the city don't like Eminem, Sean doesn't have love like Jeezy does. Some of those indie dudes? I fukk with dudes like Guilty and Milk and Elzhi. But instead of putting up some dumbass smiley, why don;t you contribute to the thread?

Drake, Lil Wayne: Miami

I wouldn't say Nas 'owns' the area but I can't really think of any other MC who is pretty much liked by everyone who is out of town. His performances at Rock The Bells and with Damien Marley have solidified him here.

Jeezy's Detroit love is not up for debate. Hence him signing DBC
