Too Short:
Gets a pass because he really did what he raps about and ran the streets of Oakland for 10+ years.
Keak:
Was born in Alabama I believe but what? The nigga moved out here when he was 2 or 3! All he knows is Oakland, he couldn't tell you shit about Alabama.
The Feds:
No one respects the Feds anyways, besides one of them really is from Fairfield, and another's from Vallejo.
Snoop:
Again, the nigga was born in Mississippi, but ask him anything about Mississippi and he'd probably look at you crazy. The nigga was raised in Long Beach for over 20 years, how is he not from E/S Long Beach?
Game:
Not many street nigga's respect him, but one thing you need to know about gangs/sets in L.A is that they get put on. You don't have to be born n raised on Ceader Block to be a Ceader Block Pyru, the big homies just gotta vouch for you.
Being born somewhere don't mean shit, it's the amount of time invested and your familiarity with the place. It should feel like home and people should embrace you there. I ain't even gonna speak on Ya Boy, but I ain't never really felt no turf hoppers. He's 21 right? If the nigga ain't lived in Filmoe for over 10 years he ain't from there, just a former resident, that's how I see it honestly..
