That's his show to lose.
He's clearly the frontrunner in that competition.

of course you can be from the suburbs. being from the ghetto doesn't make you any better at anything. it just might give you some topics. plenty of hip-hoppers are from the suburbs. souls of mischief, etc.
i don't think anyone on that show is all that impressive, but i think sullee and persia are the best. i don't like how contrived jon brown's voice is. sometimes that's the problem i have with a lot of rappers, not just the white ones... like, i know you don't talk like that in person.

If you have [i:e2f044beb0]it[/i:e2f044beb0], you have [i:e2f044beb0]it[/i:e2f044beb0], no matter where you're from.
I think the best thing for someone to do if they are trying to portray society through words (i.e. writers, poets, emcees) is to live in all kinds of environments.
I say this because I moved about 30 times and lived in suburbs, trailer parks, ghettos and the country.
When I was young, I hated it. But now that I've realized how much it helped me grow and learn to adapt, I wouldn't trade it for the world.
