This is obviously an new York centric board breh. Why you think nas is so hyped and loved on here? They got mobb deep beating out nwa and outcast in polls, west coast gets disrespected on here, this board is very pro-new York
I don't know if that's the full story.
1. In the 80s and 90s, the golden era also known as one of the greatest eras in music overall, New York shytted out classics and great artists. Therefore NY is overrepresented in legends and classic albums. If we are talking the 2000s, it's often not "biased" in any direction. The so-called pro-New Yorkism comes from that fact too. And let's not forget about how many legends from NY are left out of discussions too, they were just too many at one point in time.
2. The West Coast is not disrespected, they were just not as many people as the East Coast and even if you go on Spotify and check artists. BIG's biggest fanbase is LA after NY/BK, Jay's biggest LA after NY/BK.
3. Post the thread where Outkast beats Mobb Deep
