brooklyn had Necro and Non Phixion too

and Queens had the Live Squad and E-money Bags

 

[SonOf2pac]

brooklyn has better rappers but w/o run dmc the rap game would have never been where it is today... so with them and nas in that category i choose queens

 

[EDouble]

^well i was thinkin this was about which is most SUCCESSFUL so really would only put down the top-selling ones from each borough right

this shit could be settled by just chceckin sales lol

i know staten can be crossed off, & maybe manhattan?

 

[Mr Marz]

it all started in the bronx but the foundation of hip hop came up outta queens wit artists like run dmc, ed lover, kool g rap, q-tip (tribe called quest) and ll cool j. some people might say in later years because of big names outta brooklyn like biggie, jay z, and pac that brooklyin is the most successful but look at how solid queens is still today... nas, 50 cent, mobb deep, noreaga, cormega along with a few ogs that are still making records. so i would have to say queens. however im suprised that long island didnt appear on ur list. they attributed a lot to the culture wit rappers like chuck d from public enemy, busta rhymes, flava flav, de la soul, epmd- to name a few big ones.

[DJ Harris]

Most Successful : Queens

My Fav : Brooklyn

 

[Bachaveli]

Brooklyn is in the house!

I didn't see Pac neither in Brooklyn or Bronx hellrazor,where would you put him?

 

[Bender]

Pac represented all of NYC.

 

[troublesome2004]

Queens easily. I'm suprised that you didn't mention Tragedy Khadafi, Rakim, Cormega, Capone-N-Noreaga & Onyx.

 

[Dogmatic187]

I had to give it to BK.

 

[troublesome2004]

Like I said to Bank Robber, I wasn't trying to name every rapper from every borough. I just named some of the more well-known artists to give people a general idea of who's from where. BTW, Rakim's not from Queens, he's from Long Island.

My bad. Btw, good pool. :thumb:

 

[~Vindictive~]

Pac also hails from Brooklyn

 

[Prize Gotti]

I find that rappers from Queens come more deeper lyrics than Brooklyns selection of rappers. Queens breeds street rappers and BK breeds Party Rappers.

 

[S. Fourteen]

Where Pac is from, of course.

 

[CoreBeat]

Brooklyn, for sure.

"Spread love, it's the Brooklyn way", Biggie

 

[troublesome2004]

I find that rappers from Queens come more deeper lyrics than Brooklyns selection of rappers. Queens breeds street rappers and BK breeds Party Rappers.

"New York metropolis, the Bridge brings apocalypse" Nas

 

[Khalistani Soldier]

Brooklyn for sure.

 

[MATW95]

I think it's Staten Island everybody. Wu-Tang Clan Ain't Nuthin' Ta F' Wit.

 

[MaKaVeLi2K3]

Brooklyn.....but Pac was from NY too. What borough? I forget. Brooklyn or Bronx?
