Why is Philly So Overlooked when it comes to Rap ?

[mblackmon]

Philly is like Detroit. It's is a TOUGH, blue collar city. Not as cosmopolitan as NY, LA, even Chicago. Those are all TOUGH cities as well, but they have a flossy side. Not as much of that in Philly and Detroit. And I think the music reflects that. Hence the lack of commercial appeal.
