Default Modern East Coast Rap

Maybe it's just me but it seems that East Coast Rap has taken a bit of a hit over the years. There doesn't seem to be too many guys coming up from to represent the East Side (especially from NYC). The only two good ones I can name, outside the mainstream guys from the 80's & 90's, are Aesop Rock & Immortal Technique.

Most of that list is covered by the quoted line but I will try to check out those guys and the ones that the others sent.

It seems that way right now but it's too bad that the East Coast is sort of out of it right now.
