It's a lot of talent coming from both regions. I was wondering if there was anything we overlooked.

Detroit:

Black milk on production and flowing

guilty simpson

royce da 5'9--i hope folks go back and get his catalouge. Very cool of

eminem to do the EP with him.

24kt on production

One be lo--underrated and bnary star first album is still classic.

Elzhi--very talented mc

big sean-not a big fan but i see the appeal

boldy james

bronze nazareth-on production though his flowing has gotten better

Eminem-yeah yeah i know but he's still got some great songs and is still real technical.

Stretch money--he nice check out this tracks:

Yeah he is, my mistake. I just woke up when making the post so my mind was probably a little foggy. I actually stated his Denver-based location in a post months ago: http://cratesofjr.blogspot.com/2011/01/ ... oonie.html

I thought EQ's Out The Ashtray Of L.A. album was pretty good, he hasn't put out music in awhile though
