How you gonna ROFL with a hollow back?
Mr. Lf, Akro, 7L and Esoterik, fukking boring as fukk. The reason people don't talk about Boston hip hop is because it is a jr version of NY. I will give t up to Ed OG, Krumbsntcha, even Reks, and Term, but the fact remains, there is nothing that makes them dudes stand out from the pack and give Boston its own identity. Let's not talk about Guru and pretend like he was fully repping Boston and not n NY getting it in the mecca.
Say what you want about Benzino and Made Men, but at least them dudes repped Boston and tried to give the city an identity and its own sound (plus Hangmen 3 production was probably the most hip hop thing to come holistically out of Boston exclusively besides Ed OG)
