I voted for LI, for De La Soul, PE and KMD/Doom. Still not absolutely sure I should have, though. It seems that place breeds a certain kind of creativity. Would I be right in thinking it's generally a little more affluent than the other boroughs mentioned?Philaflava wrote:Somebody should post like 5 groups from each borough to give people an idea. I know Thun did something like this before, but you all are sleeping on L.I. and I'm affraid if peeps aren't aware they'll vote wrongfully like they'll do for Bush

Long Island is actually not a borough of NYC - it's just outside NYC (technically brooklyn and queens are the western-most piece of long island but there's a whole lot more jutting east, outside of nyc borders).De Seven Free wrote:I voted for LI, for De La Soul, PE and KMD/Doom.

So yeah it's not affluent everywhere there but it is definitely more of a suburban experience.
And if it's gonna count here then lets not forget other places just outside of NYC like...
Westchester (just north of the bronx)
- Pete Rock & CL Smooth
- Heavy D
- Brand Nubian
- The Lox
- DMX
- "Sean Combs"
- Mary J Blige
New Jersey (that hideous state across the Hudson)
- Redman
- Naughty By Nature
- Queen Latifah
- Apache
- The Artifacts
- and the rest
