Nas NY State Of Mind New York's Official Anthem
Mobb Deep Shook Ones, Part II (this is the song right here that made you scared to even go within a 10 mile radius of Queensbridge)
Biggie & Jay-Z Brokklyn's Finest umm Not Real Gritty And Grimey But BK's Anthem
Brooklyn Zoo Another Anthem for Bk
The Triboro ~ Big L
South Bronx ~ KRS
Up North Trip ~ For those of you not from NYC, or don't heavily listen to NY rap, I will inform you. "Up North" is a term used as a reference to the jails that are located north of New York City. The term is often used in rap songs made by New York City rappers. The hook in this song says "make one false move and it's an up north trip" meaning keep your biz on the DL, because you could end up on an "Up North Trip". This song is just great. A gritty beat and some raw lyrics make for this classic.
