tales from the desert


The southwest states are probably way below the rap radar for most people. Places likes Phoenix, Las Vegas and Denver are distant outposts from the vantage point of meccas like New York or the Bay Area. Do not be fooled because none of your favorite rappers hail from the desert however. Like other urban environments all across the country, southwest cities have an abundance of local hip hop.
