Yeah I don’t think entire cities should count


People from these cities correct me if I’m wrong, but these are more in line of what I think of as individual hoods

QB, Marcy, Bed Stuy, Harlem, Hollis, Southside Jamaica

O-Block

Various LA Neighborhood based Gang Sets (Rolling 60, MOB Piru, etc)

Uptown New Orleans (Magnolia and Calliope projects, hollygrove, etc)

Bankhead, College Park, The Bluff, East Atlanta, Decatur

City would be Compton….no one would even know Compton without hip hop

Individual hood/projects = QB, and O-block for the current pick

The fact o-block, a nickname for a projects in globally known, says a lot.
