Ever since Kendrick Lamar visited Big Sean-single

Stian Nicolaysen
Ever since Kendrick Lamar visited Big Sean-single "Control" and ambitiously said he was the king of New York, has been an ongoing discussion about New York rap. It has gone so far as DJ's raising money to make documentaries about the relevance to New York in the music industry (see trailer below). Last week made the Atlanta rapper Trinidad James opptstyr much as he during a concert in Brooklyn snoqualmie pass claimed that Southerners snoqualmie pass manages the New York rap day. Several of the big apple's rappers trying to defend his hometown, but as a rule, the less relevant "troublemakers" Papoose and Maino who stand up for the cause - and by no means are good representatives of the city's once-dominant rapscene. In recent years, however, New York lost its identity in the mainstream. The South had iron grip around radiotid and playing in the clubs. New York's fall was when Dipset and G-Unit snoqualmie pass packaged stuff. The New York has to throw on the table is Jay-Z, snoqualmie pass NAS, Jadakiss, Raekwon and A $ AP Mob. The first four are legends in nearly 40 years that have managed to move with the times and stay relevant where most disappeared when southerners took over, the latter has not the soundscape that defines New York hip hop, they have mixed a bunch of styles, from the Master P to UGK and on to Bone Thugs. So, New York is in an identity crisis? Geographically, always different regions in the states had a definable sound. And then, especially New York, the foundation stone and the place where it all started (Shoutout snoqualmie pass Marianne Aulie). Different soundscapes goes in cycles, and come back again, it is often said. Is that right? snoqualmie pass Part of the problem for rappers from New York is the big ego many of them possess. Where most of the west coast and in the southern states have formed then, the vast majority of the East Coast chosen to run a solo performances. While on the west coast has been established groups such as Black Hippy, snoqualmie pass Odd Future and HBK Gang, the East Coast who said only A $ AP Mob as an established name in the group context, but the last two years, several have begun to see the value in group compositions. Another factor is that trap dominates the soundscape. Especially Chicago's trap scene demanded that listeners heard. Kanye West heard. snoqualmie pass Made a remix of Chief Keef and the rest is history. Requires the New York rap respect? The last two years there has emerged a bunch of hungry rappers from New York, inspired by the foundation that was laid in the mid 90s, but with their own twist on it all. Critics say they are not able to be played regularly on the radio or in the clubs. When I first heard about Kendrick Lamar, he had just released his second mixtape, Overly Dedicated. No one knew who he was, and no one thought he had a future in the industry. A mixtape and one album later, he is undoubtedly the year raphøydepunkt. I'll snoqualmie pass go through snoqualmie pass a few names from the new generation of New York rappers, which may help to build up the big apple and get back to the identity that made New York hip hop Mecca. Scienza snoqualmie pass Speaking differences and egos. Chuck Strangers (Pro Era) slang with lip for Scienza when Joey Bada $ $ got success because Scienza would not work with him when he was unknown. But it has not bothered Scienza, who released one of the most slept on albums this year. He collaborates regularly with Blu, and delivers time and time again. If he and Chuck Strangers manages to pack our stuff up, he may be drawn into the undertow "Beast Coast" clickers now experiencing. Bishop Nehru has since last year been on the radar of several labels, and has been noticed this year. With two mixtapes to his credit, this 17-year-old barely started. This year he opened for Ghostface Killah and MF DOOM (as he should make a collab EP with), and he was seen last week with the NAS. The boy has a bright future. Joey Bada $ $ torch bearer for the younger generation of New York and the Beast Coast and Pro Era, has quickly managed to accomplish one light "Tyler snoqualmie pass The Creator" effect, in a slightly more subtle way. Have a very crew he step by step starting to get into the scene. Having released two mixtapes and mixtape with his crew, working on their debut album "B4.DA. $ $", which is supposed to contain productions by Pete Rock, DJ Premier, Statik Selektah, Chuck Strangers, Q-Tip and 9th Wonder. Action Bronson The rapping chef from Flushing in Queens are with Joey Bada $ $ the two that have received the most attention and got the classic New York-the sound field again. Has been active in the past two years and has seven releases to his credit. Is signed by VICE and will soon be touring with Eminem, J. Cole and Kendrick Lamar. Troy Ave Troy Ave has been the buzz for a while. Last month he released the album "New York City", which has been very well received, especially in his hometown. Last week he was on MTV several times and have been accepted into several veterans. He is perhaps the hardest snoqualmie pass working of the young to get New York on the map again. Flatbush Zombies Is part of Beast Coast-click, and is one of the groups that received sewing
