Oakland Vs. San Francisco

[YungGung]

i think the thread is about currently yall bringin up all them old school ass rappers

 

[707north]

If we were talking about in history that would be Frisco Rappers no doubt. They've had way more legends then Oakland. I got love for Oakland rap too. Too short and Seagram were my favorites back in the 80's and 90's.

I don't know what era your from but 707 has always been included when it comes to bay area rap legends. I'm from the 80's and the 90's was the best era for Bay Area Rap.

You can't take away what Oakland Rappers brought to hip hop with Short Dog to Hammer Digital Underground, even with RNB act such as Tony Toni Tone and Keyshia Cole...Frisco's Filmoe was the Harlem of the West..back in the day...But fasho we gotta unite from SF/DA RICH/Pittsburgh/V-Town/Da Town...etc....

COZMO IS WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY BIGGER AND SUCCESSFUL THAN ANT BANKS..

frisco AND oakland was "415" back in the late 80's and early 90's.there was no "510" back then.

[DFresh77]

the whole east bay, marin, peninsula were 415..i think 415 split into 510 in 90 or 91....then in like 96 the 415 also split into 650......in like 97 the 510 was split to 925.....

BIGCHILL..ya boy dfresh is mos def from the bay area .....

I think the only rapper from frisco that went gold was 4-tay and thats a maybe, if you are going off album sales oakland has frisco beat by a long shot.
