Any Rapper not from a ghetto?
 
Just wondering, is there any famous MC who isn't exactly from a 'hood, project, or ghetto'. I was looking at biographys of some rappers, and some people I didn't think would be from a hood by the way they rap, actually were.

Eyedea and Slug are the only ones i can think of off the top of my head.
Although I'm sure there are tons of others who hail from middle class
upbringings but aren't readily admiting it. I mean after all street is what
sells.

No crap, but he lived on 8 mile which isn't THAT bad. My mom and brother actually lived on 6 Mile for a while.

A lot of christian rappers aren't from the "ghetto".

Eyedea isn't from a ghetto hood or anything like that? Isn't that the rapper that is like insanely good at freestyle/battling?

As for Eminem, 8 Mile shouldn't be too bad of a place, unless he lived in a trailor park. I don't live too far from 8 mile actually heh, and it ain't ghetto over here.
