No, local laws only allow 3 rap/RnB artists to make it onto the national scene. Sorry!

The late Guru of Gangstarr was from Roxbury. One of the greatest MCs of all time IMO.

Other MCs to make it national include: EDO G, Mr Lif, The Almighty RSO, Edan, Big Shug, Slaine and Termanology (Lawrence).

There a ton of local rappers in Boston, are you kidding?

Sage Francis, Blakastan, Will C., Apathy, Celph, Nabo Rawk. Just because they're underground doesn't mean their not famous.
