What about la compared to london
They are way too different , NY is the most international city in America , hands down
Im not saying its the best , Im just saying that places like Paris . London , New York and a few others have more in common with each other than many places in their own countries
I like both places , and I would say the debate about which is better isnt clear cut and is mostly down to preference
But the thing that London beats NY hands down no fukking debate and the main reason I live there now is black culture .....
Blacks in London have an appreciation of each others cultures that you dont find in NY
You go to a club that plays only dancehall music, there will be a lot of black people in there who arent Jamaican or from the Caribbean , and those Africans or wherever they are from are just as knowledgeable about the popcaans and the kartels as any Jamaican , you go to a Soca night and there are a lot of people into the scene that arent from Trini or Barbados
Go to an Afrobeat club and a lot of black people there wont be African .... even a few years ago when Indian music blew up , a lot of blacks were on that Diwali wave
There is definitely less separation and we appreciate anything dope regardless as to where its from
They dont have the same hangups and insecurities as Americans do , you are never going to here a black person in the UK saying they dont like Hip Hop because they cant get past the accents ....lol
If the music is from America and its dope we fukk with it, if its dope and its African we fukk with it, if its dope and its from the Caribbean we fukk with it
everyone reps their culture hard and to the fullest and it is never an issue
