Right now almost split even between NY-LA-ATL
NY (Joey Badass, Jay-z, Nas, Action Bronson, Asap) until proven innocence --> Fab, 50, French Montana, Azelea Banks, Nicki Minaj, Talib, Busta Rhymes
Cali (Black Hippy, Kid Ink, Game and Odd Future) Snoop Lion, E-40
GA (Childish Gambino, Tip, Jeezy, Tity, Future, Big Boi, BOB, Lecrae) Ludacris, Gucci Mane, Waka Flocka Flame, Alleyboy


Honorable
Pennsylvania (Wiz, Meek, Mac Miller)
Illinois (Ye, Com, Lupe)

The rest is like 1 rapper per city.

at ATL, Bay Area, Detroit, Philly being ahead of Houston. Houston should only be behind NY and LA that's it

I was really born in TX and was a fan of Scarface for most of my life but Houston aint fukking with the Bay or ATL The Bay has a richer history and ATL have way more variety of MCs.

I can see why someone would pick the H-town over Philli tho.

Scarface alone is better than any rapper to come from the Bay and you're speaking to a Bay Area stan. Houston's depth when it comes to rappers/albums is way too strong

ATL hell naw. Them nikkas damn near ruined Southern hip-hop post 2000. Love the Dungeon Fam though but nah not fukking with Screwston

Houston was hot when NY nikkaz were saying you guys were destroying hip hop.

with that said, NYC was putting nothing but weak music in 05 and in 06 besides Ghostface' Fishcale album and few aight Saigon and Joe Budden mixtapes i think

i have The Bay over Houston still especially if u add 2pac in the mix.

Houston was hot but if you distinctly remember shyt like D4L with Laffy Taffy, snap dancing, Young Jeezy etc were all getting shytted on and blamed for the quality decrease in rap (unfair or not)
