    Cardi B is this year’s Desiigner who was the year before Young MA, who was the year before Bobby Shmurda.

    NY rap as we know it is done.. the subject matter is redundant and the beats are garbage. The fans don’t help because they keep looking for a next Jay Z.

    NY held it down from 73-03.

    What other region has a 30 year reign?

    That's a negative. Y'all reign ended with the prevalence of gangster rap in L.A. When Pac died y'all entered a power struggle with the South. Due to Atlantas capacity to put out new artist every 2 weeks, y'all didnt regain control of the genre. So I give y'all 73-til maybe 90/91.

    NY ain't have a chokehold on the 90s?

    Shortly after Pac died No Limit came through and took over. Followed by Cash Money. The West was quiet I admit. And the East was trying to keep up with the South.

    Asap mob, Carti, joey badass, A boogie amongst others proving that New York on some resurgence and not relying on a stable of older rappers to carry the torch

    I don’t really see any coast as particularly dominant right now. There’s dope albums coming from all over and that’s definitely including NY.

    I have not listened to anyone from that list. Only heard songs from Cardi and French. Remy and Pap are old and have not delivered with their careers. Oh I only know that Bad ? song from one of them Asap guys with Drake on it but that is old. So no. When they start making Reasonable Doubt, Illmatic, Ready to Die and the Infamous quality of music then @ me. Til then......Go That way >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

    The south was the last coast to hold the title. The Internet has ruined regional Dominance. That is a good thing and a bad thing.
