I was thinking the same thing. The whole style of rapping from you region has definitely left, if not vanished. It used to be so important. It's weird how things just change like that. Seems as though rappers still ''repp their hood'' but their styles are so diverse now. I think this is a negative AND a positive, ya know?

IDC where it's from, if it's lyrical, I listen. Always been that way. Using my favorite rappers to influence me, I just wrote and did my own thing, not thinking of styles or regions. It's funny, people said I have a ''west side'' type style of rapping, though I'm from the east coast really.

Idk man, one minute I can bump Pac and the next Jay-z, haha. It's a good thing to be diverse I suppose.
