look majority of NY ain't fuckin wit us, its more so about they pride factor and they bitter that the place that gave birth to hiphop ain't been on top of the game for the past 5 years...they bitter and my opinion for the most part close minded. But think about it this way, we are as proud of our e40, fab shit as they are with they jay. wu tang, dipset shitz... let them hate it or love it, thats one reason why we also need artists like yuk/ jacka/ ridah / quinn to show them we ain't all up on what they refer to as "ignorant ass" shit.
