Now up North, man, my list could go on for 10 years, because you know I'm from here, I'm from New York, I love the culture up here, but I'ma just give you Biggie, Jay-Z, and yo, shout out to Tupac, I guess he East and West. JDK, Styles P, AZ, gotta shout out Nas, even though I wasn't the most avid Nas listener, he is a pioneer, I love a lot of his music. Rakim, KRS-One, Big Daddy Kane, Kool Herc.
