I hate to break this to ya'll but if a ? is rhyming over a beat anywhere on earth, he has that party in the Bronx to thank for it. There's over 200 species of turtle, but I bet they all got shells.
Internet killed regional sound by the way. -
1st answer: not dead, according to my playlist.
2nd answer: been dead for many years already (mainstream)
1st opinion about it: ? it, I can listen to it whenever I want.
2nd opinion about it: the radio rather play/promote mumble rap.
You know what, ? the radio, and ? the fake Hip Hop media.
With that being said, East coast styled Hip Hop relied heavy on samples.
And that ? cost money. Keep in mind that being a hustler is more important in Hip Hop nowadays..
..then being a dope MC
So yeah
Ain't nothing wrong with making money
But a lot of these artists, ain't artistic, at all.
They can't rhyme, they barely rap, plus they ain't got ? to say.
Maybe 4 to 8 years of Trump will give 'em something to talk about.
The biggest factor in all this. (Heavy) Sampling died down starting in the late 90s and the early 2000s, and unless your name is Erick Sermon, Swizz, Dame Grease or P. Killa (might be forgetting a few) there weren't too many producers using original sound in NY. There's tons of original sound in the south in particular, that's why they been able to stretch themselves so thinly for over a decade. -

But Sermon used a lot of samples tho
And he's a way better producer then Swizz
Swizz just smashing buttons on his keyboard, lol -
Boom bap is gone and dated, east coast music is cool when it incorporates other styles with out seemingly blatantly doin it to make a hit or some buzz imo

That ? been dead

Swizz was the first; he went to school in Atlanta that's where he was influenced TJ get away from sample less production -

Not so much towards the late 90s. If he did, the samples were just layered around a beat he already made.
Sidenote: I read somewhere that Neptunes sound was inspired by this:

Gold teeth is ancient but removable fronts is NY ? . I read some interview where Paul Wall was even talking about how in the south(or texas) people wore gold but it was permanent and this guy from NY came down and taught him and others how to make fronts. Also you have Eddie who took his business to Atlanta brought what was being done in NY.
Permanents and removable are two different things.
Everyone main transportation would be trains if the cities could afford to build them. -

Irrelevant -
As the originator it can't....

Reks still doin his boom bap east coast thing, the east coast sound ain't dead, just underground at the moment. It'll come back into the mainstream eventually don't worry, these things go in cycles

Young m.a is weak imo she has no depth she's just looking for that 1 song she can play over and over ooouuu is prolly it but that'll be it from her. I don't see her lasting long.
As for the rest of the list they all trash prolly i mean I've never wanted to hear any of their ? ever. But I've noticed you purposely skipped Dave east the one guy who has staying power outta the new breed of rappers.
If these mf in position of power and influence stop supporting this trash ass rappers the game as a whole would be better. It's not just ny sound that's dying it's quality rap -

If u ever been to New York you'd know ppl drive
I don't know how people can no sign this comment. BK, Queens but obviously NY and NY has more Luxury car dealerships than any U.S city. It take ten years to drive 3 blocks in Manhattan rush our for a reason.
Listen to the music, while most of America was talking about old American cars and hooking them up, NY was always on some Benz, Beamers, Porsche Lexus, Infinity, Saabs, Roles Royce, etc. -
