Nah can't be proud of ignant ? . San Francisco is known for a bunch of other ? (I'll let you fill in the blanks) but folks get got out here all the time -
If you were no older than 10 years old during hip hop's peak artistic years where the most growth took place i'm not going to respect your opinion on the mecca of hip hop. Atlanta has maybe 10 hip hop artists that help set the culture. I can name 10 from Brooklyn alone.
NYC is the mecca of hip hop, they Eddie Kane Jr status right now, but you can't take what they've done away from them. Has the south essentially owned hip hop for the past 13 years or so? Absolutely. But when you think "I want to go to the mecca of hip hop" No sane person of much intelligence tells you to start with Atlanta.
There has been more hip hop history made in those 5 boroughs than the entire southern region combined.
It's not up for debate.
Lmao @ Eddie Kane Jr. status.

Nah he's not being proud, he's just telling it like it is. San Francisco. ? out there thrive off the tourist dreams sold by San Francisco. Nas & Young Buck are two celebrities who got caught slipping in The City. The ? district & Full House are very misleading

Makes sense. The bay is a land of haves and have nots. No matter where you are, there is a community of very wealthy, nonconfrontational nerds, and a Lil grimy ? not too far away looking for a comeup. Read somewhere Oakland was the US robbery capital -
Screwston Texas >>>>>> ATL
Ima be real witcha..when the dungeon fam was poppin I wanted be from ATL. I honestly felt like we weren't up to par to what they we're putting out. It took me years to appreciate our music scene and the city as a whole..
I don't get into all all ny v the south ? but I will say this. It's funny that all during the 90s mf called us slow now niqqaz is playing catch up.. -

All throughout the 90's I think it's safe to say that most New Yorkers didn't think about yall. NY was doing it's thing just like houston was doing it's thing. NY just didn't look up to anybody(city) while other cities looked up to NY so that created resentment. -

He's a DJ/Producer
Can't have hip hop without a beat -
I assume that ppl just don't know what the ? Mecca is
It's the birthplace
It ain't got ? to do with popularity or what's currently hot.
Hiphop ain't start in ATL, therefore it can never be called MECCA.
It can be ? , it can be Gomorrah, hell it can even be call Golgotha, but it can and will never be called the MECCA of Hiphop -
3rd Coast vs. Atlanta thread?
Don't get to see this too often. I'm from Arkansas, grew up on 3rd Coast music and I live in the A now (I love it).
So I'm going to sit back and watch the show. Much respect to all of the south. Each part of the south is a part of me. -

If we include producers Atlanta ? on NO even more -
There's no way a ? can convince me N.O. is a better hip hop city than Atlanta. Although N.O. has a nice roster of talent. We can start with the obvious lack of an answer for outkast. Killer mike is better than everybody in NO history also, and T.I. would only have wayne to deal with....NO got manny, and beats by the pound, but ATL got Toomp, Organized Noise, Shawty Redd, Zaytoven, Jazzy.
Yo, and ? Jay Electronica don't count either. He ain't put in no kind of work. -
everybody I named is from New Orleans. None of that surrounding cities ? .
Not college park not riverside no dunwoody.
Wayne and Elect > 3000 and whoever the second best from there is. -
Alot of ? coming out of ATL the past 10yrs
"yall ? ? & your reputation ? , the new san francisco is the old chocolate city" -? c
Thats DC, not ATL
-
so folks still trying deny Atlanta is the Mecca...lol even if you love other states music better those rappers in that state come to Atlanta to get their ? pushed.

@Shizlansky Out here ridin for the home team. I ain't mad at it.

When Atlanta grew in popularity over the years the quality of rap music has gone into the ? .
