And alot of west coast rappers have a connection to him because he threw their DUB up with East Coast swagger, and the timberland boots all open with them jeans, you know, he swag the west out. Kind of how the Game is doing it now, bcause the Game gets some of his flavor from the East too, even though he\\\\\\\'s really from LA county.

He represented Oakland/Tha Bay on his first 4 albums.He shot 90% of his music videos in Oakland.He never mentioned New York in his music until his 3rd album.If you were listening to 2Pac in the early 90\'s 1991-1994 you would have no idea he was from New York since he didn\'t mention it in his music or portrayed the New York lifestyle in any of his videos.He did one song about L.A. but he also lived in Atlanta too during 1994-1995 following the footsteps of Too $hort who moved there.

Also, look at him, that reps NY in its self, how many DMX looking niggahs you hear saying they \"thugged out\"...who says we are thugged out, and thugs, where does that terminolgy come from. Don\'t be stupid and deny facts. Here we go again.
The answer is he's from wherever he claimed. Primo was originally from the south but everyone knows he's considered an NY producer. Kurupt was originally from Philly but he's considered a west coast rapper. Devin the Dude was born in Florida but we all know him as claiming Houston. I don't think you can just go by where they were born, otherwise you'd have to change the status of all the other rappers as well.
Good ol dubcc,wheres judging by the threads youd think it was 1996
