Indeed
But first off let's get it right. I don't hate New York. I love big cities and New York is the biggest if big cities the I could never live there because I like my personal space and most people in NY live on top of each other.
What I hate is New Yorkers.
And when I say that it's not really all of them but there is a specific type of New Yorker that I hate. But there's AT LEAST a tiny bit of that type deep inside every single New Yorker. How much of it they let out is up to them but I find that it's usually the ones that have nothing going for that let it out.
The typical 'had nothing going for them' street dude who had nothing else about himself to rep but the city he was born in and feels he, with his GED from NY public school, is better and smarter than you with your Bachelors or Masters from elsewhere. They feel like saying 'I'm from New York' can kill any argument in their favor.
Remember that dude that was talking all that shyt about " These nikkas dont know. I'm from New York, son!" before he got bent in the parking lot by that white boy in Arizona? Yeah that type.
Edit: @MikeyC 's post has a pic of the guy
But remember as much as I hate those type of New Yorkers I'll say my top 5 favorite rappers and rap groups (Mo's Def, KRS, De La Soul,Wu-Tang) minus The Roota are all from New York and I date more women from NY than anywhere else.. what can I say? They love the kid and I live them right back.
