For LA, this is probably the worst example to use in the " It's not just happening in NYC, it's happening here too!" defense.

1. Boyle Heights, isn't being overran with white people.... it's being transformed by natives and Mexicans who want all the amenities of gentrified areas,without erasing the culture and history of the neighborhood...


2. Boyle Heights being gentrified, does little to nothing to displace any type of history that neighborhood has in regards to hip hop.... it's very different from Harlem being turned into "North Manhattan"



can you even name some rappers from Boyle Heights breh?


harlem is north manhattan it's uptown lol

difference is, Hipsters from the Midwest aren't coming into Compton, Watts, South Central and taking over our homes, apartment complexes, shopping areas, movie theaters, barbershops, etc... they arent stripping away the L.A. culture.

NYC nyggas are straight gettin hi-jacked and gettin forced to move to Atlanta :bryan:

TYRONE GA!
Exactly. I remember hearing they were EVEN trying to gentrifiy ATL metro. So I dont know why these cats are acting like this is some phenomena exclusive to New York.

Most ATL rappers are not even from the CITY. They are from the suburbs and surrounding areas. Post posters here who rep ATL live in the surrounding areas as well.

Yup. I'm not a native Atlien, but I make sure know I'm from the ATL "Area" in Fayette. :pachaha:

Another prominent fallacy that needs killing is black population=rap dominance :snoop:

Black population means nothing in the rap game, ask detroit, dmv, dallas etc.

There''s more black people in the supposed fully gentrified 'north manhattan' than the enitre city of Atlanta :heh:
