I'm pretty sure God is afraid of Suge Knight. Have you ever seen that dude? Although in all seriousness, I think most rappers would say they fear 50 the most. No one else has been so successful at massive career ending smear campaigns as him.

I isn't debatable the East is better than the West. I think the South has good argument against the West.
Best/Most important groups- NWA vs OutKast, etc
Best Rappers: Ice Cube, Snoop, Too Short, Game, DOC(tech a southerner though), Ren, etc vs Scarface, Bun B, Andre3000, 8Ball, T.I etc

I think I give the South the edge.

What are there, like 3 classic albums in the past 10 years combined from the coasts?

Get on that South shit. Sir Luscious Left Foot, Andre 3K, Killer Mike, all of Huntsville, Z-ro, Yelawolf, Playboy Tre; shit, even the best underground/East Coast shit is from the South (Jay Electronica).

+1

The South has been more influential on hip hop over the last decade than any other region. Sometimes for better, sometimes for worse. But it's been a ridiculous center of gravity.

Rap was born in the East Coast.
But the West Coast got 2 Pac.

There are a few notable exceptions (The Pharcyde is one of my favorite hip-hop acts of all time) but the east coast made rap what it is and has carried it on its back. Its not even close.

In a sense you are right, but don't discount Chicago. The style of production that Chicago producers were using became pretty big...
