Busta Carmichael

I will have to go with brooklyn:
Jay
Biggie
Mos def
talib kweli
das efx
m.o.p
fabolous
big daddy kane
busta rhymes
odb


But manhattan is not that far away. specifically harlem

BlackGerald

I would say Brooklyn.

one of the guys in Das EFX is from Teaneck. and lol i think Tru Life is the only Manhattan rapper not from Harlem

all the boroughs (and Long Island) got great rappers tho

KeepOnPushing

Queens is up there....i would think the list would be pretty deep for them.
