rofl... seriously?
Hiero, MC Hammer, Too $hort & Mac 10 is from Oakland... and yea, there’s a huge difference between LA & Oakland (not to mention the 500 mile gap)
Anyways, moving on...
This aint a fair comparison. There simply aint as many rappers out of LA as there are out of NYC. LA aint as big as NYC (population-wise) either; you’d have to combine LA, Oakland & SF to equal NYC. With that in mind, here’s some great rappers groups from LA:
2Pac
2MEX
Above The Law
Abstract Rude
Aceyalone
Blackaliscious/Gift Of Gab
Blu
Cypress Hill
Crooked I
Daz Dillinger
The DOC
Tha Dogg Pound
Freestyle Fellowship
Ice Cube
Jurassic 5
Kurupt
L’Roneous Da Versifier
Lil' 1/2 Dead
Living Legends
Lootpack
Mad CJ Mac
Murs
NWA
The Pharcyde
Quasimoto/Madlib
DJ Quik
Ras Kass
Oakland:
The BUMS
The Grouch
Hiero
Hobo Junction
Lateef
Saafir
Seagram
Too $hort
There’s plenty more which I aint thinkin of right now but that’s a pretty decent list
^you don’t think The Roots have a legacy? They were even nick-named The Legendary Roots Crew because they dropped five classics in a row (Organix-Things Fall Apart)
