if ur workin and doin the music shit on the side, u could prob live out in brooklyn or queens. im lookin for a place to go in june, and ive been seein like 7 to 1,000 for a place out there. theres alot of cats from the city though on here so they would know the deal better.

nyc is the music capital of the world. with miami and the bay area coming in respectivly. If u have talent and want to make a career in music new york is the jump off. There is not one other place that offers as much as nyc. but if ur shit is wack then it dont matter where u go. But if u have talent nyc is the place to network and establsh real connections.

if you go in to NYC thinking that they can make you or break you NYC will eat you alive........don't believe what you hear and read...there is cats in new york city doing it and we never heard of them and chances are we never will......just because you go to NYC w/talent don't mean you are gonna make it......you better not just go to NYC with talent...you better go with some kind of name too...or you will get thrown on the waiting list...if you go to NYC you'd better be ready to make real moves!

im not hatin on nyc - i LOVE the YORK but ...

i think an up-and-coming producer would be hotter in a mjor US city that is pretty much untapped (for the most part)

-dallas
-sacramento
-phoenix
-Seattle

etc....

Just seems like one could blow-up easier (if that's a possible term)
