Why is hip hop dead in new york?myspace pictures
Because its commercial. If you dont have catchy hooks or a markable image your basically not going to sell. In New York where it started radio stations play the same songs over and over you got djs taking money under the table from artist in return for more spins. In the beggining Hiphop was done for fun and if you made money then it was a plus Now its all about money.

because people dont want real hip hop any more, they just want trendy stuff like hos,cars,money,booty,and drugs
they want poor excuses for hip hop like lil wayne and souljah boy

Yo coz i left d newYRK bro
It is??? Yeheay that's it I'm moving back to New York!!!
Ahem. If what you're saying is true, then I think it's because most african-americans prefer to live in california or florida than in new york. it gets really cold in new york during the winter, and also the people there are really serious in their business. there's very little time to sit back, relax, and think of a nice phrase you can turn into a rap song. most underground bands in new york know each other, and i think it would be really awkward if a rapper hip-hopper pops up to perform with them.
Because Master P took it from NY in the late 90's and brought it to the South.

they've been holding down the underground scene in NYC for 7 years.... it ain't NYC unless its EOW
peep it. They do mad concerts, open mics, and mad albums.
Hip-Hop is dead everywhere, EVERYWHERE, North, South ( yes the south, hip-hop does NOT live in the south) its dead, ( not dead as in you dont hear it, but the quality is dead, therefore its DEAD) as i say, these crappy "rappers" are just disrespecting what the greats have tried so hard to establish, Nas, A Tribe Called Quest, Rakim, Notorious B.I.G., Big Pun, Run DMC, Blackstar ( bassically) Mos Def and Talib Kweli, Jay-Z Eric B. %26amp; Rakim. they are pissing on hip-hops grave and essentially on the graves on those who have died and remained true to hip-hop. You wanna hear true hip-hop? Listen and Compare what true hip-hop is:
-Nas- "It Aint Hard To Tell"- Illmatic- excerpt
It ain't hard to tell, I excel, then prevail
The mic is contacted, I attract clientele
My mic check is life or death, breathin a sniper's death
I exhale the yellow smoke of buddha through righteous steps
Deep like The Shinin', sparkle like a diamond
Sneak a uzi on the island in my army jacket linin
Hit the Earth like a comet, invasion
Nas is like the Afrocentric Asian, half-man, half-amazin ( i loveee this line! it aint hard to tell =D)
Cause in my physical, I can express throuh song
Delete stress like Motrin, then extend strong
I drank Moet with Medusa, give her shotguns in hell
From the spliff that I lift and inhale, it ain't hard to tell...
to this so called hip-hop, once again pissing on hip-hops grave:
Hurricane Chris- No Album? Whats the Album Name For this sh*t?- Ey Bay Bay ( original title folks! i swear..)
When I Holler Ay Bay Bay
I Finna Get My Groove On
Its So Hot Up In Da Club
Dat I Ain't Got No Shoes On
Im Holdin' Up A Big Stack And Dem
Hundreds In A Rubba Band
Girl Don't Ask Me For No Cash
Cause Im Not Dat Other Man
Everybody Trippin' Cause Im Limpin'
When Im Walkin' And Im Pimpin' When Im Talkin'
I Don't Trick On Chick Dats Talkin'
Dem Boyz In Da Back Dey Be Rollin'up Dey Doughdy
Then Dey Blow It Till Dey Chokin'
Dats Wat Godly Came Out
Honestly, Hip-Hop is dead, just listen to the greats and what theyve left us with, thier legacies in the form of hip-hop. =/
Cause you have alot of young rappers coming into the game who don't know anything. They wanna be like somebody else jeu get the money and bling. They don't have real talent. Then other young people give them too much props then all the great rappers fade to the background.
