Meccapolis Top 100 New York Rappers List

[Mike Wins]

Red wouldn't want to be on a NY list though, lol.

Treach was just speaking about this. He said Jersey MC's get mad when people lump them in with NY. He said when the East/West sh*t was going on, Cali dudes out there would tell him that he might as well be NY since NJ is so close, and he said he was scrapping because of people saying sh*t like that to him. HAHA! Jersey rappers take it personally. That's a whole other state. They ain't with it.

Fair point!

I’ve never heard a half a mil song in my life.

Like I think @Awesome Wells said

You had to be locked in on the Nas/Firm era to know about him.

Yeah it's only Jersey City folks and the like who try to front like they're from NY with that NY/NJ shyt. I remember Redman said on Juan Epstein podcast "We wasn't NY nikkas. We used to rob y'all NY nikkas"

Just like the albums list, if you explain the metrics...it just becomes weirder.
Giving Action Bronson his spot because of a supposed "15 year run" but putting Ace where he is and mentioning he "had a slight resurgence in 2002"

Mind you - Ace has dropped damn near as much music as Bronson SINCE Bronson's supposed run started.

Just call it your favs and nobody can really argue shyt, but trying to base it on metrics makes it damn easy to poke holes through the logic.

Action Bronson is a better rapper than Masta Ace and makes better music

Ka is one of my favorite mc's ever, he was on Gza's Pro-Tools album and had his own track

Incredible discography, but very underground and niche.

 

[Ed MOTHERFUCKING G]

I'm just thinking of the artists who are gonna be above Capone n Noreaga....

Breh if Juelz Santana is above Nore and Erick Sermon

 

[KateFabersBoyfriend]

If papoose is on this list where is Saigon going to end up?

 

[ISO]

Ayo,

at number 69

Dude is wildly underground

Putting dudes like that over real movers and shakers in NY hip hop history will never make sense

There’s a criteria but it seems loosely acknowledged based on feeling if anything it should be a weighted point system

Get the fukk outta here You are trolling at this point

 

[g-ice]

Get the fukk outta here You are trolling at this point

Yeah I read that and I'm like what.

And I'm probably one of the few that likes Bronson on here.

 

[The War Report]

That dude Meccapolis ain’t even a NY nikka. He just a fanboy.

 

[Damnshow]

This is a random guy with too much free time trying to rank rappers he likes as the "top 100 of New York"

Action bronson was nothing but a Ghostface Killah biter, having him so high in this list is already a red flag before going anywhere further. Get the fukk outta here. One star. This list is trash with zero cultural sense.
