The talent is there...but the real problem with Philly rappers is they can't make a song. Lyrically, I think we are up towards the top as a region but lyrical abilities only get you so far in the game unfortunately. We'll win all the Fight Clubs and Grind Time battles but at the end of the day, that's about as far as we go. No real mainstream appeal, thus overlooked as a region.
Another thing, we lack range. Our content lacks depth and diversity sometimes. Like the emotion is there but if you're talking about the same things as every other rapper who's sold drugs or lived in the hood are talking about then it's hard to stand out.
