A genre of music that is stereotyped way too much.
There is a HUGE DIFFERENCE between MTV Rap and true rap.
Crappy, artists like 50 cent, soulja boy, hurricane chris, D4L, Dem Franchize Boyz are all MTV rap artists. They have no real talent, their lyrics suck, and they have no vocal talent. Don't judge rap by these crappy acts, real rap takes skill and intelligence. True rap artists are, Rakim, Wu-tang Clan, Tupac, Gangstarr, Eminem, Chamillonaire, etc. They actually have lyrical talent, they are clever, and contribute to the hip-hop industry.
Rap can be broken down into sub-genres based on where it where it was created. Crunk,created in Atlanta, played through out the south. Chopped N' Screwed, originiated in Texas is when a DJ slows down a record and muxes it. Hip-Hop was born in NYC, Harlem, The Bronx, Brookyln, Queens, all have there fair share of rappers. Hip-Hop focuses more on the poetry aspect and is used to reflect live in an urban enviroment. Hyphy is from The Bay Area, Northern California. Oakland, Vallejo, San Jo, San Fran, Berkly, Richmond, etc. all part of the Bay. Hyphy is about going crazy and not caring what people think. Gangstar rap is from southern California, Los Angeles and Compton. It is more agressive and focuses on life in the hood. Chicago, Detroit, and other midwestern cities have contributed to rap as well. ******REMEMBER******** there are many many different types of rap, and MTV IS NOT RAP.

Rocker: Dude, I hate rap, they're just ghetto retards
Me: What type of rap you hate? And your probablly talking about Soulja Boy or Dem Franchize Boyz, have you ever listend to Rakim, Wu-tang Clan, or Tupac?
Rocker: There is more than one kind of rap? And who is Rakim?
Me: Exactly my point. You just focus on MTV mainstream rap, the same could be said for rock. There is more than one genre and MTV doesn't show you what true rock is, just like it doesn't show you what true rap is.

It's true, the east coast is pretty beast. Awesome cities, NYC, Boston, Philly, ATL, Miami etc. Great food, Italian, Chinese, Cuban, French, etc. The west coast only has one good state, California is cool, but Oregon and Washington? Pretty lame. Plus east coast is the original America. We strech from Maine to Florida, we beastttt at everything including sports. NY Giants Superbowl champions 0'8. NY Yankees pretty beast, and ATL Braves are awesome too. So you can have your one good state while we have like 13
West Coaster: West coast is like the best coast =!
Me: Might as well call it the California Coast, no body gives a fuck about Oregon or Washington, the only thing that california has that we don't is good weather year round, so yea EAST COAST IS THE BEAST COAST

Where I'm from. We are actually closer to NYC than to some parts in South Jersey which is kind of funny. Central Jersey includes the counties of Somerset, Middlesex, Monmouth, Hunterdon and Mercer. North Jersey is more industrious and South Jersey is more agricultural. Central Jersey has a lot of Suburbs and has Trenton the capital. People either like the NY giants or the Philly Eagles, a lot of people commute to Manhattan and we call sandwitches subs. Despite Popular belief Wa Wa isn't only in South Jersey we have plenty of them up here too. We are low-key people that know how to party. If you were going to visit Jersey I wouldn't reccomend Central Jersey cause theres not a lot to do besides go to the mall, party, and movies. South Jersey has a lot of Shores and North Jersey has the famous Bergen County.
I don't get why North and South Jersey Fight. No one even knows about Central Jersey so not a lot of people hate us.

A rap group from Bankhead, Atlanta Georgia. D4Lstands for Down for Life. Fabo is the leader of the group, Other members are Shawty Lo, Stuntman, Mook-B, and Stoney. A lot of people don't like ther music because it is snap music a new kind of music from Atlanta which has a slower beat and based off the rythm of a finger snap.
