    Damn so a ? who's whole catalog was released as him being a west coast resident isn't a west coast artist??? A ? who unified the whole coast more then any rapper b4 him and any rapper since isn't from said coast becuz he wasn't born there??? Y'all be taking this where ? is from stuff WAY too literally.... PAC was a west coast ? no matter how you try and spin it.

    Listen, I'm from the Bay and Pac is the GOAT of course, but that ? ain't "from the Bay"

    The others in the poll are all born and raised in the Bay, have the lingo, mentality etc..Pac adopted that when he moved to Marin, but again he's not "from the Bay"

    Im sayin tho, from the age of 16 - 21 is when you're becoming a man. So that influence/lifestyle in the bay is more prevalent to his development than his yrs as a kid in the east. IMO

    Nobody is denying Pac being a West Coast artist, but dude repped LA as much as he repped the Bay, if not more

    If the poll was "Best California rapper" then Pac should definitely be listed, but Pac isn't a Bay Area rapper imo

    The bolded made me laugh. There's another way to take it? Lol. Who knew?

    GetoBoy: Where you from, my ? ?

    Me: Atlanta

    GetoBoy: Na, I know you was born and raised in Atlanta n ? . But where you FROM? Like ya know...where you from?

    Me: *looks around confused* ? ...I'm from Atl-...? it, just tell me where you want me to be from, son. That'll be faster!'

    I think that's a better argument then him being a east coast ? .... If somebody wants to say he isn't from anywhere becuz of his movement then I can see the argument there but to call him a east coast ? is just reaching...

    Bad example becuz if I asked you where you from and YOU told me atl I'd stop there... If you asked pac where he was from imo I think he'd put more importance on him being from the bay then anywhere else he's been

    Spice 1
    Pac was born in Harlem and lived there for the first 15 years of his life, then lived in Bmore for 2 years and didn't get to The Bay til 1986.. so he's NOT FROM The Bay. E-$0 is horrible and one of the worst rappers in the US PERIOD> Clown. Who cares if he reps The Bay. Spice-1 true G and fromt he Bay all day

    Mac Dre
    40 is still one of my favorite rappers, and Pac is a legend worldwide but Mac Dre was a true trendsetter and he made a lot of timeless music even though his untimely death ended his career.
