If your stubborn then it may mean refering to the northwestern states, however the Pacific Northwest is not JUST in America, it can include a multinational view which would include a part or ALL of British Columbia.

If you want to talk about some of the major cities, they are Vancouver, BC, Portland, OR & Seattle, WA.

Have you ever heard of Cascadia? I'm going back to 1803 now. What about the Oregon Country?

Trust me we do it just as big over here in Vancouver as you guys do in your northwestern states, if you came over here once in awhile and experienced the scene you would understand that this is a HUGE part of the PNW I shouldn't have to bash it into your heads.

I'm done though, it's all good.

bwahaha, there's hella blacks in canada rupaul of the northwest but don't include BC in that header. fuck that shit manne.
Whoops. The black population is 2%, not 1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_Canada

There's my evidence. Where's yours? Stop the name-calling for a second and back up what you are saying.

I know its "cool" to have black people in your city/state/country, but you don't have to lie to kick it.

Ethnic groups

Note: Respondents to the 2001 Canadian Survey were free to fill in any ethnic group that applied, thus many people belong to more than one group, and the percentages from each ethnicity do not add up to 100% overall. However the most popular choice was "Canadian", and this may mean that the other figures are not reliable as a record of the relative prevalence of the various ancestries represented by the other choices.


you're still a tranny

it's alright if they dont want to include Vancouver in the NW. Although it does seem retarded not to, since it's the biggest city in the region and has probably had more commercial success with hiphop acts from here over seattle and portland. Not to mention the shows and club scene here are more poppin. Anyone thats spent time here already knows whats up.

As far as black people in Vancouver its true, there are hardly any. Most of the black people are from america, but that has nothing to do with whats being discussed here, we're talking about music.

Oh goodie a topic on geography I love this shit, I'm going to lay it down for all of you.

1) Canada has no black people b/c by American standards, SEATTLE has no black people and Seattle has HELLA black people compared to BC.

2) Black people aren't related to how good the rap music from the region is (Red Head Steve, Tha Loco, D-Sane and company have changed my views forever on that).

3) Black people ARE related to whether a city will blow nationally (that's why Seattle won't ever).

4) Vancouver acts are a part of the CANADIAN market, Vancouver is the L.A. of Canada so of course it's going to make a bigger impact on the Canadian scene than Seattle-Portland is in the American scene. And if you're gonna say that the two scenes are not independent of each other and that no Seattle-Portland act has made as much $ as the Swollen Members (which I would agree with, I'm going to a concert of theirs tonight at my school), the Swollen Members still enjoy that benefit of being from more of a comparative metropolis than the Seattle people do. I'd understand completely if some Seattle folks would want to move up to Vancouver (as Deep Thought & Touche did), they might have a greater chance at success.

5) Seattle is larger than Vancouver (200 statistics found 2.3 million in SEA not including Pierce County compared to 1.8 million in VAN including places such as Burnaby. Richmond & Surrey). Seattle is larger, that's not debatable (read "Regional Geography of the United States & Canada" by Tom L. McKnight).

As for whether it's a part of the Northwest, I say definitely, include them as long as their people don't tell fuckin lies like it is bigger than Seattle or that they have hella black people (LOL).

I repeat, 95% of the rap from the Northwest comes from the 206, 253 & 503. 95% doesn't mean that NO rap comes from the 509. (by the way, the underworld hustlers out of Pasco are awesome, I love those guys). But no way Eastern WA has more than 5% of all the rap coming out of Oregon and Washington.
