Gentrification.

That and they're too busy shooting and getting shot up.


Coke Boys is the biggest movement out here goin, and it's no surprise that it's coming from 2 spots where little has changed about the city: the Bronx and Far Rock, America. You're not gonna see a movement on some OTF/GBE /Lil Mouse type of shyt here. Too much shyt is being done to prevent the kind of ratchetness you see in Chicago. In some ways, that's a good thing. The hope is that these kids and the generation after don't have to deal with all the shyt the previous generation had to endure.

Amen.

Cats act like music can only be good when people go through enormous amounts of pain. Cats rather be like Wayne than a Styles P these days.

smh at the sensitivity of some of you NY nikkas. this wasn't a diss thread fakkits. i'm legitimately wondering what is preventing a big ass city like NY from having a street movement made up of young cats in their teens and early 20s?

And we are legitemately laughing at u for making such c00n ass threads

Answer this question: are chief keef and hip hop movements like that, a result of their environment or fake cb4 shyt???

When u realize the answer to that, you'll realize why a borough like queens has one of the highest median incomes for minorities in the US

If chief keef was a suburban kid that shyt would be beyond pathetic. But I understand his ilk because that's his upbringing. That's who he is. And the music bumps. Lil jojo on the other hand, was supposedly a suburban kid giving other options in life, who attempted to create a chief keef movement of his own. You want more lil jojo's??? Fine. But don't involve my city. We trying to bring the olympics here and make profit. Not lose em because of violence caught on tape the week your city has to make presentations.

i don't know about that. i wouldn't say styles was ever in the same category as these dudes in chicago. yeah, he mentioned guns. every nikka does. but he was more like tragedy. an intelligent street hoodlum.

New Yorks been soft since Sex and The City.

Detroit Chicago & Philly have been harder and making better classic East Coast rap music for the last 10 years.

:mjpls:

Keef and his superfriends sound more like southern rappers than east coast's

I'd take Ron Marciano, Action Bronson, Ka, Joey Badazz, mr. muthaf in' exquire at their worst over any of them clowns at their best.

yes and so was the leader of the decepticons.....

the conditions that created there existence is not equal to the environment of nyc right now

young nikkas got it *lil reese voice* confrused cause of the lack of MEN out here

being a G or hood is not the equivalent of being mentally or physically tough....hence why verse 3 from loaded lux is a sonning beyond sonning

that message got lost because of the lost generation (but they'll never admit it)

if gangsta rap is a result of its environment, y would you want more gangsta rappers???

"Its like New York been soft ever since Snoop came thru and crushed the buildings"- Jigger

"All the other hard nikkas, they come from Yonkers"- Curtis :wow: at this level of honesty

New York rappers made it very clear over 10 years ago that the city is not built for street movement in hip hop. People just weren't listening. We can stop waiting for that cuz its not happening...


But next question is where is the "alternative" hip hop in New York? NY is supposed to be full of artists and hipsters and the avant garde...where is the creativity?

NY offers NOTHING to hip hop other than the old vets...very strange
