How Death & Prison Derailed Bay Area Hip-Hop
The Bay Area is a region with undeniable talent, but it hasn't become a permanent hip-hop power center. We've had plenty of artists with hits and worldwide acclaim, but there are so many rappers who haven't had the spotlight. Many fans have wondered why the Bay seems so slept on, and never achieved the same level of success as other regions. One reason is that so many artists - including our BIGGEST superstars - have been held back by death, prison, and other consequences of the streets. This is a deep dive into some of the tragic circumstances that have derailed Bay Area rap.--Essential Bay Area Rap Playlist: https://fanlink.tv/historyofthebay-podcast--Join the Patreon: https://patreon.com/dregsone--0:00 Intro2:19 Rapper deaths9:33 Rappers doing time17:15 Addiction & mental health20:03 Conclusion
