Posting a Snoop and Tupac gif is yet another distraction from answering the question but thats not gonna work today.
So I'll ask it again
@spliz said "If he's saying hip hop started outside of the Bronx. Yes. Wrong. If he's saying hip hop got influence from outside of the Bronx. He's right. 2 different things tho."
And you said Flowers was the TRUE god of black NYC djs.
So are you saying Flowers and Jones started Hip Hop or they influenced it???
The reason u won't answer is because Spliz shytted on your answer before u could say it..
Spliz I hope you are seeing this.
let's see what Spliz said, to what you said:
If he's saying hip hop started outside of the Bronx. Yes. Wrong. If he's saying hip hop got influence from outside of the Bronx. He's right. 2 different things tho.

HipHop, presented as a 4 element culture started in the Bronx but the individual parts came from various parts of NYC and some, even outside of NY
