the more i look at this argument...the more i see both sides..
real hip hop came from the streets, and damn near every one of the legends of hip hop came from the hood, so there's got to be some sort of correlation there. to be honest, street cred does play a role in the music i listen to.
i like CNN and Mobb Deep because i've been through what they've gone through and i can relate to the shit they talk about.
but i also listen to Kanye West...i guess its different...idk

Dudes don't understand this is the type of shit I do research about and compute probabilities, confidence intervals, etc. (like actuaries) ... Statistically he has like a .0001% chance of gettin on from Syracuse let a lone gettin a major record deal hahaha. Numbers don't lie. Do you know how many others dudes have came before him and tried to get on? Demographics is the name of the game folks. It does affect your future especially in America, otherwise the "electoral college" system would be changed ...

you do understand that you've been slowly exposing your ignorance for a while now, right?
there can be no statistical analysis on something like this. looking at which artists have made it big and where they are from has no STATISTICAL relation to the probability of where the next artist will be from.
granted, a person from a larger city is more likely to gain exposure more easily, and have connections...but the fact is...blowing up is liking popping corn...no one can predict the next kernel to pop...
for you to lay some sort of mathematical claim on this is totally foolish. PLENTY of people who you THINK are from 'the hood' only claim it, or lived there shortly...

Economists do research dummy. The words are almost interchangeable. K, this is an educated man's discussion hahaha. Where you live and who you are is a determining factor for any profession you choose. Labor economists consider and analyze the effect of the structure of population (demographics) as well as other factors that effect employment of all kinds (including entertainment). You should shut up now lol ... You are a dumb nigga from Baltimore.

Dam, yall motherfuckers can never stay on topic in here, who gives a fuck where you're from, nigga from the street don't buy albums anyways. On topic I think signing with Soulja Boy is a good look, if he puts Soulja Boy on a song it's guaranteed to get radio play.
