St. Louis is not small... The population just moved to the suburbs... It's called urban sprawl. At one point stl city had close to a million people alone. It's a rust belt city.

[@thereallhmg1793]

Ima stl resident compared to more large cities my city is SMALL. The advantage commute here is 15-20, hope on 270 it’ll take you around the whole city in 30-45mins. That’s vastly different from larger cities, population wise google say 286k that’s not large at all.

[@VisionItTv]

NWA came out before the write your own raps era, as did sugarhill gang. The write your own raps thing started in the very early 1990's. In the 1980's, many did not write their own raps.. Reason why hip hop became a thing of write your own raps was because the industry frowned upon hip hop. The rappers wanted to show they were worthier than the singers from the then pop culture who heavily relied upon writers/ were not allowed to write their own songs. MJ used to hijack songs from the writers and pay them to keep quiet

Uh oh Uh oh Uh oh. Story on the history of the St Lunatics is changing (Ali K Jones spitting stories of inclusion now). Meaning he is not saying "I WROTE THE WHOLE THING". What does he want? How much awareness does Nelly really have?? Gosh, shake hands brothers and move forward away from each other. The fans love Nelly. He is happy and energized. Ali K Jones packs mega toxicity. Fans are rooting for Nelly --he is a rascal but well loved. Hope he is not sucked back in with the big talented north side gangster cry-baby noise. Do you know what I am ;sayin'? Nelly did not leave the St Lunatics --he brought them with him for a long time. And aren't they with him now in select performances? Did they not ignore him in the beginning? (D2 deal?) Love and happiness to all the brothers and their families. Four things that come not back to any of us (1) Time, (2) the spoken word (3) a spent arrow ; and (4) a missed opportunity.
