Why do so many rappers false claim Atlanta?

[T-K-G]

Jeezy never claimed ATL, he was just there all the time and never loudly claimed Macon

It's almost like how everybody thinks UGK was from Houston even tho they never claimed it but interacted with Houston so much

Man hell naw, bun b spelled on his name and PA every chance he could. Pimp would yell that shyt to start the verse off


Ask me to point it out on a map my eyes are immediately drifting to Houston tho nvm you got it

 

[FunkDoc1112]

Where you from breh?

I was born in Park Slope, moved to Waterbury, CT when I was 3, Spring Valley NY when I was 7, McDonough GA when I was 11, and moved back to Brooklyn (Bedstuy) 2 years ago

That's why I respect Ghetto Mafia. They came out and put on and repped hard for Decatur

NINO and WICKED! Been a fan from way back and still have all the old tapes (Except Cold Blooded).

Y'all nikkas need reading comprehension classes

Not once did I say that UGK didn't rep PA. That has nothing to do with the fact that most people readily associate UGK with Houston

I always hated how Prodigy repped QB instead of Hempsted.

Jeezy actually grew up in Hawkinsville, GA and then moved to Macon later on.
Gucci Mane left Bessemer, AL at 9 years old then went to East Atlanta.
Usher from Chat Town in Tennessee. Idk why people think he’s from ATL.
Lil Bow Wow is from Columbus and always claims it but people still think he’s ATL
Andre 3000 from East Point, GA and Big Boi from Savannah
UGK always claimed Port Arthur, Texas.

LA is deferent because Compton, Long Beach, and Inglewood are not in LA city limits but the county is the same name as the city. So technically all of the surrounding LA cities is in fact Los Angeles.

Now this is wild. My ex is in Savannah’s I was like cool let’s meet in ATL Had no idea that a 4 hour drive away

THAT is worth talkin about. Most the other stuff? Is typical ngga shyt. If you moved there at 10?? Ngga that’s where you from and only a lifer can pull rank on you. Or if you from Gwinnett, of course you tell an outsider Atlanta bc it’s a whole lot easier than explaining. Only nggas would care about some ‘thats 20 miles away! ‘

Big Boi repped Savannah to the fullest.

Muhfukkas be from Putnam County talking bout they from ATL

Yea OK Oconee

 

[Fanservice]

yep, born in raised in Alabama then moved to Atlanta in his teen years so depending on perspective I guess he can claim it. Never heard him rap about Alabama though.

Cuz there ain’t shyt to rap about

I was born and raised in Alabama. We got trees, cows and Mardi Gras

 

[Reptile]

Gucci from Birmingham however he moved to ATL at like 10.

If Pac can claim West Coast when he moved out there as an adult Gucci can claim Zone 6 after spending his teenage years there

nikkas get on Pac too hes not an exception.

 

[Pop123]

Cause it’s cool to be gay nowadays

 

[FS4LFE]

Because it’s been the center of rap for the last ten plus years.
