Everybody's right
I think that alot of cats made some real good points..it's not just "one thing"...it's a lot things going on out here.
I think Gruff sez it alot about the hatin'...there is WAAAY TOOO MUCH hatin out here. If you are tight, I've seen it happen a million times, cats get up and leave. They get no love here. Look at Fredwreck, he from SJ, and that aint talent?! He left to LA, just like Peanut Butter Wolf, and hella other folks. San Jo really can't compete like Frisco or Oakland, but cats here got skills, and that being said, you got cats here who royally suck, but get put out there.
We all know that if San Jo fell into the ocean the entire Bay would have holes in they pockets, and less hoes to get at, and I say that because everybody comes down here to play so they don't need to front.
There are also no mom and pop shops out here, so everybody scrambles for limited shelf space, and that is a big issue..it's all chain stores...and you lucky to get it in liquor stores because cops will confiscate, I've seen it happen.
But after it's all said and done the saouthbay got talent, it just needs to bubble and when it does, because it already has, those cats don't need to turn they back on the town.
