614 is the Columbus, Ohio area code, nikka. Never confuse the two. I've lived in both, ironically. The 647 area code is fairly new.
Jimmy Prime came up w/ "the 6", anyway. Not Drake or ghostwriter miller.
Quentin didn't come up with the 6 either.

East Atlanta rappers have been calling it that for years.

Drake stole it.

Drake himself said he got it from Jimmy. QM said he didn't meet Drake until winter 2014. Here is an Instagram post from March [recall I said early-mid 2014 in my post] 2014 where Drake uses the "6" to refer to Toronto. Peep the hashtag #JimmyPrimeNamedIt



Not to mention "Views From the 6" has been the working title for his album well before he met Quentin Miller.

Drake is a liar.

This is true but nobody ever called Toronto the 6 before Drake started doing it. I have no problem with the moniker per se but normal people in Toronto don't call Toronto the 6. The term is purely a hip hop/Drake reference which is cool and fine inasmuch as that is concerned.

Which he stole from Gucci Mane.

he didnt get it from Quentin Miller, he got the whole "6" thing from a local rapper from downtown Toronto named JimmyFromThe6 :dahell:

Jimmy Prime (@jimmyfromthe6) • Instagram photos and videos

East Atlanta rappers been calling zone 6 for years even before Gucci Mane made his debut what would give Quentin so much merit?

also its 416,647, the main area codes, which is story behind our version of it

the whole "6" thing is cheesy tho tbh but get ya facts straight

Drake stole it from ATL rappers and lied about that Jimmy shyt and y'all believe him because you're fans.

Zone 6 via PG County
Don't speak on what u obviously don't know.. U neva heard of Gresham Rd?

you mean the Gresham Rd that goes from East Atlanta Village to Decatur? Yeah the part of Gresham road that's in Atlanta is Zone 6. I live in Zone 6 so i know a LITTLE bit about it, bruh. You'd be surprised how much people don't know about the municipal boundaries of their own city. I'm from Prince George's County MD. It's next to Ward 8 in DC...but it's not Ward 8. And you'd never hear anyone from Oxon Hill claiming Ward 8. But I guess it's different down here.

Drake actually bit from Killah Priest - View From Masada.

Masada has six letter hense Views From The 6.

Which also explains Drake trying to get The Wu on his good side with that album cut.

I think it is different over there. Idk much about the A but from their celebrities and rappers almost every surrounding suburb/city is still considered Atlanta (riverdale, college park, decatur). Even the Gwinnett County. Personally I don't take issue with it because that's what helps their unity and is the reason they've been able to churn out so many artists consistently for the past 15 years or so.

yeah that's my point. In reality none of that is Zone 6. Zone 6 stops at Glenwood Rd on the south and Candler Rd on the east. But I get it. I thought these rappers where reaching but i guess Decatur etc count as Zone 6 unofficially. Thanks
