Dre is the GOAT producer but in the last 10 years or so nothing he has done has really stood out to me

16 years* but yeah

That Gorillaz/D12 track “911” was the shit back in the days!

On the Midwest we didn't even know Illmatic existed when it came out

yeah it wasn't big nation wide...even here in NYC it was mostly word of mouth and the streets, my cousin had the bootleg cassette and we would listen to it...no airplay for the singles on the radio whatsoever...it wasn't until a couple of years later when he blew up commercially

Lol and you’ve been listening to west coast rap your whole life. I went to st louis for a wedding a year ago that place fuckin sucks

Well I'm from Kansas City, but yeah of course I've been to St. Louis and it's similar and only a few hours away.  It does suck.. what do you think I'm gonna do?? Be like "no fucc you man, Kansas City and St. Louis is the greatest, Missouri for life!! Tech 9, Nelly, an St. Lunatics all day!!!!" 

in life you have to pick and choose your battles as the saying goes, and that's not an argument I take up.  It's like gun control.  Yeah, I favor the founding fathers, the constitution, Republican party over Democrats -- but am I actually gonna get in a debate with someone over gun control?  No.  Same with abortion.  Same with a lot of issues... and one of those issues is someone talking shit on Kansas City.  You can even say the Chiefs and Royals suck (and I love the Chiefs and Royals and watch every single game)
