Dead rappers always overrated... Besides bizarre he was the worst in D12

You forgot two great cities and rappers..

Pittsburgh: Wiz Khalifa
Kansas City: Tech N9ne

Tech N9ne is awful.

New York City - Rakim
Los Angelos - DJ Quik
Atlanta - Andre (for Outkast's first 3 albums)
Detroit - Obie Trice
Memphis - None
Miami - None
Houston - Scarface
St. Louis - None
Chicago - Common
New Orleans - MASTER P

Tech N9ne is far from awful..I'm sorry but he has one of the truest and most original forms of rapping.

When you have recorded about 200 songs, and have made songs better than "Trauma", "Voices", "Cursed", and every other song he has ever recorded. Then I'll even begin to listen to your opinion about him being "awful".

Original doesnt always mean better

But seriously.. Tech is the lost member of ICP.

How you goin mention predominant cities but leave out Philly, Jersey, and Oakland?

Anyway

New York City - JR Writer
Los Angelos - Ice Cube
Atlanta - Ludacris
Detroit - Myself.. btw, Royce isnt from Deroit.. He's from Oak Park.
Memphis - Three 6 Mafia
Miami - none...
Houston - Scarface
St. Louis - none..
Chicago - Common
New Orleans - none
Philly - Cassidy
Jersey - Joe Budden
Oakland - Too Short

damn that list is really diverse
From Jr to Common

Common the good one on that list though

i'll add minneapolis just so i can say brother ali for that :) werdnessism

Brother Ali is for straight up faggots.

oh
you left out Cleveland too
Cleveland - Ray Cash

Cleveland - Ray Cash? lol

You mean Cleveland - Bone Thugs N Harmony

New York City - Jigga
Los Angelos - Dre I guess
Atlanta - Ludacris when he isn't doing whack shit
Detroit - Royce
Memphis - where?
Miami - see: Memphis
Houston - see: Miami
St. Louis - Nelly, but only Country Grammar
Chicago - Lupe Fiasco
New Orleans - Lil Wayne

Brother Ali is for people who like good emcee skills. Maybe you'd like him if all he did was talk about how gangster/pimp/hard etc he was. Sadly, that's not what hip-hop is about. kthnxbye

Left out DC baby


Tha Q and Lupe Fiasco!


BEOTCH!

Ok, so what is hip hop then?

You're obviously sleepin on Ray Cash.
and the thread is "your favorite" meaning "my favorite"
Dont tell me who should be my favorite.

Do I look like I have the definitive answer to that question? No. I know what ISN'T hip-hop though, and it includes faux gangsters making 500 tracks about how gangster they are and talking about how much money they have way before they have it and in most cases never will. K? k.

You dont know what Hip Hop is but you know what it isnt?
Stfu, stop trying to seem like a guru, faggot.

Oh my bad Zone, I misread first post, I thought this was a dispute thread about the best from each city.

Anyways, nah I ain't sleeping on Ray-Cash, I got his new album, but I mean if you ask anybody who you know from Cleveland...they're going to say Bone Thugs N Harmony. They are one of the most profound groups to ever drop lyrically.

I mean there are plenty of 50 Cents, Ray-Cash's, Dipsets, and shit like that..

But only once in a great time do you find sucha good collaboration like Bone Thugs N Harmony, or emcees like Nas, Talib Kweli, Mos Def, Rakim, Tech N9ne, Canibus, etc...

No, there arent plenty of 50 Cent's, Ray Cash's and Dipsets.
And I didnt even know Ray Cash had a new album, damn!!
when it come out? whats is called?

Ray Cash- "Cash On Delivery" 2006

whoever said brother ali is whack needs to be shot in the damn face

You said "new" like it was recent.
2006... around June nigga
thats not new...

and Brother Ali is trash
If you feel I should be shot in the face come shoot me.
Nobody wants to hear the life and times of a fat ass albino frowin up in Minnepolis

geez..
Only on the net would you find people who actually ever paid Brother Ali any attention at all

Rakim toured with Brother Ali the past few months, i guess Rakim dun went crazy didnt he -_-

What does that have to do with anything?
Rakim used to be ill... but what is he doing nowadays... seriously?

he spit shit from his upcoming album on hip hop honors, his album's comin out this year and he's been on a collab with kweli, he's still dope, i dont think he'd go on tour with just anybody, Ali is dope and he doesnt rap about his life as an albino in minneapolis type shit i think he only mentioned it in like 2-3 songs from 1 album

Zone Out, how do you always manage to look fucking retarded?

lol @ thinking tech9 is wack.. He's sold more independant hip hop albums then most of these supposed "Major" hip hop labels by himself, and mostly jus slangin in KC. If you don't like him, you don't like him, but damn if he ain't 1) Amazingly skilled and 2) a Damn good buisness man. word.
